MY BIRTH STORY
My birth story will be a short one. I no Sabi write epistle. I had my son 3years ago vis cs and I was hoping to try a VBAC with my subsequent babies. Fastforward to last year june I fell pregnant but lost the baby at 5wks 6dys. God blessed me with another pregnancy in October and I was eagerly looking forward to carry the pregnancy. To be honest with you mamas, I was scared because of the previous miscarriage but I encouraged myself with the word of God, family and joining this forum also helped me even though I was a peeper in my first pregnancy. My EDD was on the 28th of July according to LMP and scan. At my last ANC which was on Tuesday ( was 40wks 5dys) my doctor said if I don't fall into labour within the next 3days that I would be booked for a CS because she doesn't want to take any chances. I called my husband from the hospital and told him, he said my doctor know best but that we should still pray and hope that I fall into labour before then. I told my mum, who said I shouldn't go but wait for baby to come. I was confused and worried because with my son, I had a failed induction and had to be operated on because his BP hit the roof and when the doctor opened me, he discovered that my son was stuck making it difficult for him to pass through the birth canal. I came to this forum and some wonderful mamas encouraged me and advised that I listened to my doctor. On thursday I checked myself into the hospital for the surgery on Friday. To God be the Glory my princess came into the world at 12:51pm on 5th August weighing 3.5kg. It can only be God. Even though I wanted to try for a VBAC, I have no regrets whatsoever. I pray for other pregnant mothers that you all would deliver safely and ATC mamas the time to favour you has come. Thank you mamas.

MY BS
On Thursday night 28th july, i couldn't sleep. My waist hurt so much. I was visiting the toilet every hour and dh was busy massaging my waist. My mum had arrived on wednesday to spend the holiday with us since she will not be available by september. By 5am when she woke up, I told her how i was feeling and she said its labor. I laughed. I wasn't ready. No hospital bag, no baby clothes partly because i wanted to do the shopping with my mum. I didn't believe her. I thought the contractions were supposed to be on my stomach lol. After much persuation, we headed to the hospital. We arrived at the hospital 7am, got checked and i was 7cm dilated. I was asked to take a walk and hot fluid, by this time i couldn't walk again and i had a blood show. Dh bought all the things required for my hospital bag at the hospital at double the price. To avoid that mamas, prepare early o. Dh had to be the one buying baby clothing, wrappers, flask etc.

@gaily04's post about candy crush reminds me of something...mamas plx have u heard of the app.candy crush causing a havoc to the lo in the womb,saw nothing of such on google,my close friend lost her baby after 24 hrs of birth n she told me it happened to 2 of his Dh's colleague too, its so scary,they said they all are addicted to playing candy crush, that the android waves attached to candy crush is powerful n harmful to the growing baby,does any1 know about this? If u do plx help us throw more lights.

When i went in to be checked the second time, i was 9cm. The nurse was asking me if im ready to give birth with my clothes on. i changed into wrapper. By this time, im tired of praying, i was just talking asking the nurse questions she considered stupid. i felt d need to pee, my bladder was emptied for me then the need to poo which ushered in Joan at 10:24am weighing 1.4kg with a tear followed by Helen at 10:29 weighing 1.5kg. Their low birth weight landed us in a children hospital. In all these, im grateful to God. I look at them though small and smile. Pray for us, we are healing. Thank you all and congrats in advance and arrears to all mamas in the house.

Sweet Mamas where art thou....
Please show us more sugah.... ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

For mamas in abuja pls be careful when choosing hospitals. I had the worst experience in a so called top govt hospital. The negligence and sheer incompetence no get part two. When i went into labour at 27 weeks the hospital i registered in said their incubators were full that they would refer me to the GH. I said ok on getting to the GH now as i entered the ward i was reprimanded for wearing trousers . I had to leave work to go to the hospital hence my dressing and its not like i was due yet. I was given a bed in the ward and that was the end . No one checked me or the baby my bp was not checked babys heart rate not checked. This was like 11pm and i was in full labour contractions and all
From my bed i could see the staffs on duty fast asleep i was calling to be checked one of them came broke my water and left . Before i knew what was happening my baby was half out his legs and body just dangling while his head was stuck
I screamed for help that is when they started running helter skelter calling for the doctor to come. The doctor pulled and pulled the baby it took more than half an hour to get him out he was already gone with bruises everywhere from being pulled. I was bleeding in buckets my family members were already weeping as the placenta refused to detatch i eventualy ended up in the operating room for the placenta to be removed surgically. I complained to the hospital about my treatment but did not get any tangible response. I discharged myself the next morning. Pls i will appeal to everyone i had heard the bad reputation of this GH before i was referred there i should have insisted on not being sent there
If two or three people have bad experiences in a hospital please run i thank God for my life but i still shed tears for my baby boy . It is well people if ur in abj pls pm me i will give you the hospitals name so you can make an informed choice where to register.
Mamas wey don born congrats o. God bless you and ur lo
