That Episiotomy of a thing is not what I wish women at all. Unfortunately, I was right there in the labour room as the doctor did the Episiotomy to my wife. You just cannot imagine what went true my mind immedately the doctor did it. It waz nasty, had to lie to my wife that it was notin at that point in time. It took time before she healed. All i can say is God Bless you women and men, please respect your mother and wife.....

Oh my, I think I just had an epiphany...I realized I now have much more respect for women who have gone through childbirth and still came out looking sexy and attractive at the end.

Last Point
Ladies, please take special care of your health and body during pregnancy to avoid most if not all of these nasty complications...

I can imagine...I've had two friends and a baby aunty of mine who had the procedure done. Quite interestingly though, the procedure is done on almost 70% of all first-time mothers and the healing process is expedient if the woman or her mother-in-law knows how to take care of the sutures (gently cleaning and wiping with mildly warm water). It is painful though, that much I could tell from the cries I heard from my baby aunty in the recovery room.

Last Point
Ladies, please try to have as much sex as you can before getting pregnant. That way, your birth canal will be more elastic and thus be able to widen up and accomodate a healthy baby without needing an epistiotomy.

Leopantro: 3 Pregnancy Mask
Melasma, also known as the “pregnancy mask,” happens when an increase in estrogen and progesterone throw your melanin receptors into overdrive, causing hyperpigmentation. The result is dark, splotchy patches on your body and face, most commonly on the cheeks and forehead. Because your body decided that all the weight gain and swelling just weren’t leaving you feeling ugly enough already.

2 Episiotomy

Another controversial procedure is episiotomy, which is a nice way of saying “slicing your hoo-ha open.” In an emergency situation where the baby must be delivered quickly, or if your bundle of joy was blessed with the Fat Baby Syndrome mentioned earlier, your doctor may make an incision extending from the vagina toward the anus to widen the birth canal and prevent tearing. As horrifying as the procedure is by itself, recovery is even worse, making simple actions like sitting or standing excruciating for the busy new mother.

1 Rectal And Genitourinary Prolapse

All that pushing can wreak havoc on the surrounding organs. The weakening of ligaments and muscles caused by the strain of labor can bring on two fun conditions called rectal prolapse and genitourinary prolapse. It’s pretty easy to figure out what that entails if you know what “prolapse” means, but in case you don’t, it’s when your colon or uterus basically turns itself inside-out, making an unwelcome appearance outside the anus or vagina. It can be treated with surgery, but that may not be much comfort for the 1 percent of people, mostly women, affected by colon prolapse and the estimated 50 percent of all mothers who will be affected by some degree of genitourinary prolapse.

9 Hot Tubs Can Cook Your Baby’s Brain

Relaxing in a hot tub during pregnancy can cause major complications for the fetus. Raising your body temperature as little as four degrees (which can happen by spending even 10 minutes soaking in a hot tub) triples the risk of the fetus developing horrifying conditions like spina bifida and other neurological birth defects. The risk is greatest during the first four to six weeks of pregnancy, a time when many women don’t even know they’re pregnant.


This is the scariest. shocked
May God help us
Re: Horrifying Things That Can Happen During Pregnancy by irebombo: 3:15pm On Oct 10, 2013
I went through it during my first pregnancy its really scary indeed, i was at luth for 4wks then gave birth to the baby she weigh 990gram stayed in neonatal for another 2months before God intervane but i thank God today shes a big girl now.
My blood pressure then would go as high as 190/120.
Those doctors in luth are one of the best till today when people talk bad about medical in nigeria i tell them is not as bad as they make it to be.
Lagusta: The open forgot to mention pre-ecclampsia, a life threatening condition characterized by severe hypertension and proteinuria, in a previously normotensive patient....

The Hallmark is ecclampsia, which adds generalized tonic-clonic seizures to the scenario!!!!

Drugs may suppress the blood pressure, but an immediate caesarean section is mandatory once the patient becomes ecclamptic......

Pretty scary..... embarassed
Re: Horrifying Things That Can Happen During Pregnancy by jjagz: 3:28pm On Oct 10, 2013
The list isn't anywhere near all that can happen. Ladies don't be scared however, cause these things happen rarely. And even if they do happen, with proper healthcare, all iz well

You have nothing to worry about dear. As long as you get proper antenatal care and take proper precautionary measures, you'll be fine. Wishing you safe delivery.

All this is your punishment from God for eating the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden. God has commanded the daughters of Eve to bear children in pain, till the end of time.
