Good day mama,
I had my son 3 weeks ago suddenly he is having rash on his face alone. While his body is very much smooth what can be d cause. The same thing is happening with my sister's baby too.

Thank God I'm seeing ppl with like minds. I had a vagina delivery with no complications sef but the thought of another baby still scares me. Every time I see a pregnant woman the first thing that runs through my head is how will she cope with labour, then I start feeling for her as I'm the one going to go through the labour. I can count how many times I got down with dh this month just because he doesn't want family planning and im scared of belle. The thought makes me cry sometimes sef. Pls hope I'm really Ok?

Anugod you thought of giving one to your mum if another one comes. I told myself I was going to abort it immediately if I get pregnant now.

Sis you are very lucky o. My previous job where I was collecting plenty money na just #50 bike this one that I'm collecting skikini money na 2 bike and 1 motor with no creche. Thank God arrangements was finally made for us today. I can at least do few things before I attend to him. What I console myself with is the change won't come home to meet me if I'm at home.

Chai mother hood is divine.@spiceeamie,anugod and other mama's, you are very much ok to express such fears.Giving birth weda virginal or c section is not easy, coupled with the journey of 9months dat is filled with a lot of intrigues---from morning sickness to what have you.

The good news is that,it is doable.Try to look at the brighter side of it, like seeing your kids grow and so on and tell your self, yea i can do it and yes you can.

After my 3rd pregnancy,i told my hubby,e don do, let's hang d boot here.I battled pregnancy induced Hb and was highly depressed after the delivery cos d bp continued to skyrocket despite all the drugs i was into.My bp went up as high as 193/110.I was so scared,i tot a lot of negative things.But as God may have it when my baby was getting to 11 months,d bp normalised and i regained back my confidence.
But i still told my self dat baby making will be on hold.
After my dd first birthday,I noticed that i was pregnant again.I feel like my world has collapsed.I hated my hubby for giving me Belle and my self for not been smart.I tot of what i passed tru previously,i was scared.Thats why i didn't identify my self with my team mates here cos,i was not excited.
Long story short, that pregnancy is the most easiest.Wasnt admitted for one day.Bp was good.On d delivery day, labor was short easy.

Finally,i so much love this boy as if he is my first issue.I thank God every day for diz gift.
So great mother's, don't be afraid, go for it when you are emotionally ready for it.
God will make it easier diz time around.

Apologies for my long epistle.

On another note,if actually you want to space your child,abeg go for better family planning method.Pls forget condom, withdrawal method.They are not reliable at all.

Mamas that LOs BCG's site didn't swell after 6 weeks. Please what did you do and when did you act?


Awaiting response please

Loooool, CS is a bitch but for me that's not even my primary fear. In fact I'd rather do elective CS than go through the induction, labour for 12 hours and then emergency CS that I did...maybe because they gave me drugs even before I asked sef, I was doped up real good...hehehe

My ish is the impact on my career to be honest, there's so much I had to postpone because of childbirth, I need to catch up. I have absolutely no regrets but that "do what you want to do quickly" doesn't work for me. I was at a comfortable place in my career before I chose to have the first, now I know where I would like to be before the next and getting there will take a few years. I'm determined to get there before I slow down again for one more. I lost 2 career years with my first (ABSOLUTELY NO REGRETS THOUGH), gotta get it back before the next. I know how much I had to deal with getting guys picked for developmental stuff over me because pregnant/nursing etc so I can't do it in quick succession abeg. I chose the route of FP cos I can't stress myself, whatever works for you is the koko.

Now to my point, I don't think you should apologise for your choices, I have a friend whose husband and her agreed to the 1 child they have. If you talk, they'll tell you to bring 20M (their calculated cost of raising a child till 18). If you don't have 20M for them, mind your own damn business. For you take your time, be comfortable with where you are mentally and emotionally before you take the plunge. Be sure you're not talking one child out of fear, be sure it's what you really want

PS: Also be mentally prepared for surprises if you are going the withdrawal route, so you won't get depressed if it does happen, me I will sha be here laughing kwakwakwa at all of you

Awww...Huge Congrats G.

Hunniesuzie don't laugh o cos it won't be funny o. I don't know what to do with my dh. Even my mum has drummed it on me to go for fp, but this guyman no wan hear.
I have sha told him no cd, no action. But seeing as cd sef is not reliable, fear is kashing me o

could be baby acne and will clear in a few weeks by itself.

Also don't let the oil applied to the scalp trickle down his forehead that may contribute too.
You may stop applying any cream to his face till it clears.

Truth is, even FP is not 100% reliable, abstinence sef isn't sure for you, ask Virgin Mary...hehehe

With regards to husbands saying no to FP, sometimes it's education that is key. Ask him what exactly he is scared of? If it's messing up your system, non hormonal methods exist. However if he still doesn't agree, condoms are very ok abeg just use good condoms, Wear properly, dispose immediately after (no waste time with cuddling after), you should be fine.

Mine didn't swell at 6 weeks or even 14 weeks. We're 5 months plus now and I just noticed the swelling last month. I think you should wait till like 6 months. It should show before then

Anugod n spiceeamiee I feel u mamas. The after CS pain no be small tin. I thought the pain wld never end. If not that my first was a vaginal birth, maybe I wldnt want more babies sef. In fact, I said it after my CS that thank God we have two kids already ; a boy n a girl so any which way i'm good if we decide to hang booth o Thank God the whole ordeal is a distant memory now sha.....n i'm open to the "another serving, please?" option but we'r taking a long sabbatical for now. My baby is almost 8mths old. I wonder why ppl used to say CS is the easier way out. The after surgery pain can put the fear of God in somborri

I thought I was the only one who felt like this, the pain is out of this world though it's a life saver for both mother and child, your last sentence is so on point.

Must it swell? My ds is 25months and I didn't notice any swell at all not even a scare or was it not well given?
