I've never had a cerclage but had my daughter @ 37wks+1((CS) & was totally fine @ 3.8kg, the Dr wanted to do it on the day we clocked 37wks but cos I wasn't psychologically prepared that day(though I've known since the 6th month that its a repeat cs cos of baby's size) and being yoruba,preferred saturday for the owambe , asked it be moved from fri evening to sat morning.

I'm up for a CS again and I intend to have it done between 37wks-37wks+5@ the most.

I know of someone who went into labour @ 36wks, delivered a bbg and was discharged the next day, she almost didn't want to leave cos she was scared something may happen to the baby.

Gudday my pple,au una dey,abeg i dey feel slight stomach ache,just 15wks gone abeg wat cud av causd dis,i ddnt eat anything serious....

Is the pain a dull ache, stomach upset or is it the "I feel like dying" kind of pain?

Hello Modath,
So this will be your 3rd CS bah?

I had my first thru cs 3 years ago and I am so scared of having this one mainly because i heard that stretching of the skin can affect the scar.
Is this true?

modath:

mama,na slight ache oo,bt i don dey visit toilet,any advice

modath:


Don't panic, the human body is more resilient than we give it credit for, you had a mild case of food poisoning and since you are already feeling better i'll just advise a sachet of ORS to replenish the lost body fluid.

I'm no doctor but your baby is safe.






Is the Dr an Obgyn? Even then it still sounds weird...

Amen o. 10x for d assistance all d time. I'm still spitting n can't eat, still worried bt I'm believing dt by God's grace, all is well mashaAllaah, ile ola mo tan, make I go table my complaints for ANC. Onyinyechika08 hw u doing? U've been in my thoughts, I know its hard bt keep praying n I pray too dt u'll come back wt a happy testimony for us. Ameen. @all pushing mamas, hw body? May God be wt us to d end.

Please, which baby product is the best, pears or johnsons?

Yep, 3rd and Final by the Grace of God,I've never heard of scar issue and the skin losing elasticity,maybe the story comes from being overweight or obese..

I had my 2nd CS 2yrs+5mths after the first & that was 6+ years ago,a year or so after I lost 15kg plus(through sheer determination) and have maintained the loss since then and have a better and firmer looking abs, not flat but not bulgy either.

My scar is very thin and fine, its so faint that its the pics I take that reminds me of it being there and the ocassional internal pulling sensation of course...

All in all, its inconsequential a price to pay for the joy my shuren bring to me & their pa.

If the frequency is much,take ors for fluid replacement and flagyll to stop it.

@ummtwins2,
I know all is well, its human nature to worry though... God has given you this one, devil can't take it from you...

MY BIRTH STORY

I will start by thanking God and all the beautiful mamas in the house for your love and encouragements.
After I had passed my EDD which was 15april,I was feeling so downhearted and filled with anxiety expecting my baby. To God be the glory,on Sunday 19 April,I started feeling cramps in the morng after mass. I came home and slept after a while,I went to urinate and to clean up I saw a flow of brownish discharge. it wasn't the colour of the usual blood show I have heard of. I wanted to call my doctor but I was afraid he might ask me to come to the hospital. in as much as I wanted my baby,I have a serious phobia for hospitals and I was secretly planing a home delivery. later that day I went to urinate again I saw blood,no mucus just normal blood,I got even scared as the cramps now had a 15 min margin instead of the 30min previously. I called my doctor n he said I should come to the hospital for check up. I arrived the hospital around 7:25pm and I was immediately taken to labour ward,fear got me and I told them I wasn't there for labour that all I came for was check up and to go home. But I was told there is no turning back in labour ward. I didn't know what check up means until the doctor had his two finger going in to check,I screamed and cry I fought like a baby that in the end the doctor couldn't get what he wanted. I pleaded I wanted to go home n lied I wasn't contracting. lol. meanyl the pain was increasing.
all the docs and nurses started pleading with me to be checked but I refused. I was scan,after the scan,result showed my water was very small too small to have the baby move well*surprising * by then I was contracting every 2seconds yet no water break,no blood show. I Later agreed to be checked when I cudnt stand the contraction but after the check up doctor said I border to save me and the baby,CS has to be done. I refused again but accepted in no time and it was done successfully to the glory of God by 2:55 am monday morng I delivered a beautiful baby girl. we were discharged yesterday from the hospital and we are both doing so fine.
