Immediately I was admitted and moved to the maternity ward. I begged them to allow me go home and carry my hospital bags, the nurses refused and told me I might deliver on the road and it was high risk cos I was carrying twins. I called hubby immediately, he had to rush down to get my things.
Around 4pm, the doctor came to check me. My vagina was opened but the babies were still having fun in my tummy. They were not ready to come out. Maybe they wanted to start school there, I don't know for them.
I still wasn't feeling any pains. Everything was normal. I even sat on the bed and was browsing twitter and Instagram. I was even chatting with my friends on WhatsApp.


Around 6pm, the pains started. Oh Lord, I was trying to be strong but I couldn't hold it anymore. I started crying. The nurses came and told me the babies are getting ready to come and I will be moved to the labor room when it becomes intense.
Around 8pm, I was moved to the labor room. 10mins later, Taiwo came out weighing 2.2kg and crying her eyes out. I felt a bit relieved.
2 mins later, kehinde followed weighing 2.2kg.
The babies were attended to and I was cleaned up.


4th Trimester
We were discharged the next day.
A brief history about my family, most of our babies have jaundice. So once a baby is born, we carry out test the next day.
Tests were carried out on taiwo and kehinde and it was discovered the had jaundice.
The doctors wanted to admit them, we refused and took our babies home.
I come from a family that believes in herbs and got married to another family that believes in herbs.
Mother in law was called and informed of the situation, she came and brought unripe pawpaw. Peeled, washed and soaked it for the babies while another herb was prepared for me which was soaked in lime. I take it every morning plus the unripe pawpaw too and the babies suck it from my breast.
Every morning, we take them out in the morning sun.
Few days later, everything started clearing from their body and their eyes turned white.
We went back to the hospital to do another test( just to confirm if the jaundice is still there or not).
The jaundice was gone. Allhamdulilah.
Everything ended in praise. Mother and the babies are doing well.
The annoying part of 4th trimester is the sleepless nights. I can't wait for this phase to pass.
Thank you all for your support and prayers.

I smiled while reading this. Congratulations tou you Once more, I tap into this easy delivery🥹

Coloredsg:
BS! BS!! BS!!!

I did as instructed and he put his fingers. He gave me a suprise look and told me I was already in labor and that I wasn't having any discharge; it was my water. The shocking part; I was already 8cm dilated but I wasn't feeling any pains. I just felt normal. The nurses too were suprised.

This is what they call easy peasy delivery. Congratulations mama ibeji!

BS! BS!! BS!!!

First trimester
My morning sickness was worse. I vomit almost everyday. I couldnt eat anything cooked by me. The only food I could eat was Akara and Moimoi. Any other food will be accompanied by serious vomitting. I hated anything sugary. Fruits had a weird after taste in my mouth so I couldn't take it.
Weakness became a part of me. I started spitting too but bitter cola and chewing gum worked for me.


Second Trimester
Things improved greatly, I had a lot of energy. I could eat food prepared by me and I hated moimoi and Akara that was my favorite in my first trimester.
Mom-in-law sent Agbo Abiwere (herbs for easy delivery) and huntu (my Muslim brethren will understand this).


Third trimester
This trimester was accompanied by back pains, leg pains, feeling heavy and inability to change position while sleeping. The worst of it all was heartburn. I later discovered chewing gum reduces my heartburn. I was also eating for 6people.
I hated sex while pregnant so I started routine walking and dancing as my exercises. I walked for 25mins every Tues, Thursday, sat and Sunday and when I am bored, I play music and shake what my mama gave me.


At 33 weeks, I started noticing my discharge has increased. Doctor told me there was nothing to worry about. He also told me to start getting ready cos twin babies come early.
I started blending Ewedu and drinking.


At 37 weeks, on the 19th of April 7am, I noticed a watery discharge. It was different from the normal discharge and has a different
Different smell. Since we were told during antenatal that we should always come to the hospital to complain if we notice anything different from the usual, I decided to go to the hospital to see a doctor.
I cooked, ate, slept a bit and around 12pm, I carried my handbag and took a bike to the hospital.
I waited for 1 hr before I could see doctor (it's a general hospital). I complained about the watery discharge and he told me to lie down so he can check something.
I did as instructed and he put his fingers. He gave me a suprise look and told me I was already in labor and that I wasn't having any discharge; it was my water. The shocking part; I was already 8cm dilated but I wasn't feeling any pains. I just felt normal. The nurses too were suprised.

Wow congrats momma…
Ve heard alot about the wonders of ewedu, maybe I will try it out

Mamas the plaster for the CS has been removed but I forgot to ask if I can start bathing now & if the surgery area needs to be clean with spirit. Pls do I need to clean with spirit & bath too? Thns

Yes, you can start bathing but don't scrub the area with sponge. Treat gently and clean the area with menthylated spirit and cotton wool

Tell the person to go to the hospital so that everything can be checked. It could be low blood count and many other things. May God keep her and the baby safe.

Anaemia, low bp can cause dizziness please see a doctor.
Also, I don’t think energy drinks or boosters is good for pregnant women.

Pls let her see a doctor as soon as possible. It might be a serious issue and might also be nothing. But it's better safe than sorry.

Ps: energy drink is a no no for pregnant women and nursing mothers

How are you all doing? Hope you are enjoying the second trimester.

Hope we are enjoying the baby movements.

Please check in with your doctor if you notice anything that isn't normal.

I know some of us will start checking our baby's gender soonest.

Keep us updated

Have a wonderful month!

Hello everyone,

Please quick question. Is swelling towards the end of pregnancy normal? My feet have been swollen for sometime now but I woke up this morning and the whole of my face and eyes are swollen, looked at the mirror this morning and was scared. Is this normal? Or should I visit the hospital ?
