Ejenavi18:

Thanks for drawing my attention to that..

Op what your babies are receiving is Hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG), it's different from the routine Hepatitis B vaccine..
Your babies need it ASAP.
My suggestion made earlier was based on thinking it was the routine HBV vaccine.

Ezkid:
They told me to excuse them and they later said its just important for the safety of the baby, I'm scared

NoToPile:


Getting that injection on time for the babies is very important as time is a big factor and govt hospitals hardly have it.

Ezkid:
What will happen if the injection are being delayed till we are able to?

eniolorunfe:


Infants should receive Hep B immunoglobulin immediately after birth — preferably within 12 hours of birth and certainly within 48 hours. Its efficacy decreases markedly if given more than 48 hours after birth.

@op..you can read more about it online

The nurses should have informed your wife about it before now, you can confirm from her

Ezkid:
I just saw this on the inyou dont even know if your kids have the disease or they are trying to prevent it. Instead of u to go ask your doctors questions, you are here with bowl. I am not a doctor, and many people here ain't doctors. Put phone down and run around. U are here early in the morning showing us how dangerous the disease is as if we owe u more than sorry when things go wrong. ternet and I'm so scared for these kids.

jalodo2:
I wonder why u cant see the doctors to find out things in details. All u are concerned with is coming here cos of d money u seek. U dont even have knowledge of what u are buying is for. If is either your kids contacted or at risk of contacting it from your wife. Since she had cs, d risk of contacting it is low hence the vaccine is needed for prevention since your wife probably have it. This u can get at any health centre free. If they already had it, the doctor would have given u time frame to get it. Stop running to nairaland cos u needs their money, go to your doctors and ask questions.

I understand your predicament bro. My wife has delivered through CS 3 times but God was faithful and we overcame all outrageous bills all 3 times. I will see what i can do for u when i close from work. I have your bank details already. Congratulations and may those beautiful souls bring Joy and gladness to your family in Jesus name

Ezkid:
Yes regular vaccines.

Ezkid:
They arranged theater bills in a folder and I wants to snap it but they vehemently opposed it. Why can't I snap bills I'm going to pay?

They said I'm paying to the revenue point not to them.

Ezkid:
I have asked questions and they've confirmed she's positive for hepatitis B, but the doctor said its possible she got it from birth. But if I can't afford the vaccine , I should leave it, its just precautionary, I'm just in panic mode

angelusbrut:


The one gotten from birth is not treatable,I pray that God will not allow my luvly twins to be a carrier,God will fix it since you couldn't raise the funds

Protein0:

Calm down.
The routine hepatitis vaccine which is given for free is enough in cases of unavailability of HBIG, but must be given before the babies are put to breast. I hope they have been given this free one.

As per the source, your wife might have gotten it during her birth or afterwards while her system was not able to clear it.
Your being negative might mean you have had it and your system had successfully cleared it.

This exactly is part of the consequences of health workers going on strike from a non working system.
I'm sure the hospital where she did antenatal was aware of her status and prepared.
FMC received her as an unbooked patient, for an emergency CS.
All info they got were "emergency" too

Ejenavi18:

Hepatitis B vaccine 70,000?

Your babies need 3 vaccines at birth.
BCG, OPV and Hepatitis B.
These vaccines are given almost free of charge if not free in government health centres.

Are you sure of what you're saying?

lilyheaven:


I’m just hearing this for the first time, no government hospital charges money for vaccines.
Check well.

Ezkid:
