This is quite huge shocked
No woman should die while trying to bring life.

There are some pregnant women I will see, I would just shake my head. You could feel the poverty in her and wonder if she is taking the right nutrition for herself and the unborn baby. She would look so weak, dishevelled and exhausted.

If you go the labor room and come out alive together with your baby(babies) na very big testimony.
If you've not been to a labor ward, you won't understand.

I really pity Women for this.
Pity? Most of them are responsible for their own death. A woman would present with a previous caesarean section scar, along with a short inter-pregnancy duration and would still reject a caesarean section. Why? Because her pastor said so. Why should such women be pitied when they die?

I have seen it with my own eyes, out of carelessness and lack off funds many pregnant women hardly makes it out alive from the labour room.

Imagine charging over 250k for C/S while many Nigerians families have less than 5k in account.

I wish the government can declare war on maternity death rate.

If you don't have 250k for CS,you don't have any business with trying to raise a family. You just want poor people to be breeding like pigs and rats and adding to our already existing problems. Overpopulation is the number 1 problem of Nigeria, not bad governance!!!

I saw a woman last week Thursday or Friday, para 6, with less than an hour-old neonate. She delivered at home and she had postpartum haemorrhage with retained placenta. The husband and mother-in-law kept trying local nonsense at home to stop the bleeding. By the time they rushed her in, she was already in respiratory distress and in shock....SP02 was less than 90, PCV was 13 or thereabouts, there was leave and black substances inside her vagina and all over her vulva.... I hate poor people ehnnn, they are menace to the society!!!

Nigeria is a hopeless shit-hole.

82,000 of your women die in one year just by trying to give birth and the country has not declared a national emergency and wear sackcloth and ashes.?

No be life una dey live for this country.
Na animal farm where life is worth nothing.

And I am absolutely sure, the numbers are grossly underestimated.
The rural areas are not completely captured in that statistic.

Is it poor people you should hate or the absolutely terrible govt in a country where the vast majority are too poor to be properly educated or to afford good healthcare.?

If the husband had a decent job, you think they would deliver at home?

Did you miss the part where I said the woman is para 6 (she just gave birth to the 6th child). How is that any government's fault I don't know about his employment status and i really don't care. A 39 year-old man has 6 kids and you're blaming the government Where I trained, I was told never to help pregnant women in labour financially. They told us it takes 9 months to deliver a pregnancy, hence you should be prepared. It is not an emergency!!!

Poor people shouldn't be giving birth.

… and if she dies from PPH, they'll say its one witch uncle or auntie. In many states, management of PPH or other obstetric emergencies like ecclampsia is free but guess what, they first of all present in church or their granny house before going to hospitals when their vitals have gone down

Even when you educate them, they reject it. Go to the core North and see the mess the patients are into there. I served in Niger and I can tell you that state is royally fvcked health wise

The husband would wait till the woman is into labor before sourcing for money for a Caesarean Section. If you ask him why didn't he save enough money for the CS, he would tell you they didn't anticipate it. Really? So you don't anticipate an emergency caesarean? Some people can be irredeemably daft
