Happy Sunday to all Mamas in d hse. Congrats to all that have offloaded, happy bumping to all pushing Mamas and baby dust to all ATC Mamas.

I write this with a heavy heart and I'm seriously praying and hoping the scan was wrong. I am 8 weeks + and went for my 1st scan yesterday and the Sonographer said He cldnt see the baby's heartbeat. The result I was given states Missed Abortion but suggested I do another scan in a week.

I didn't bleed, just d regular on and off cramps. The Crown to Rump Length is 16.5mm which according to google and most baby apps I have on my phone is accurate with the age of the pregnancy.

I am being positive that he just missed it and my baby is alive. I have spoken with God and I know He won't disappoint me.

My fellow Mamas please pray for my baby to be safe and alive. I lost my job a few wks ago, the pregnancy and my son has kept me goin and I can't handle any disappointment or bad news now.

Please I need ur prayers.

Sorry for my long post.

Team July with Faith.

I speak life.
I speak life.
I speak life.

Every negative decree, Every negative thought that seeks to destabilize you further, I rebuke.

This moment, receive grace to think positive. Receive grace to maintain a positive and joyful outlook.

I summon the angels who assist in conception, pregnancy and delivery, to look into this matter you have brought here. Let them correct any anomaly in mother and Child.

At the end of Nine months, you shall carry your baby. Say Amen.

Finished shopping? No oh! For this economy? Hmmm. We are just praying that God should help us. Since its dh shouldering all the responsibilities and still responsible for his younger ones (he's the first son) it's not been easy. But he has been trying honestly. 

We have bought crib, bath set, diaper bag, cloth dryer and a few clothes and bibs, caps
My mum got us some clothes too

If I was working I know it would not have been this hard (lost my job a week after our wedding in April)

I'm sure before baby comes, we will buy all we need. We are just trusting God. 

freshtestimony:


Abeg rant jare, he no easy at all. Pls appreciate that Dh for me ooo, they are trying easing the stress off you neck.
Have you finish shopping?

In SE tradition, the woman's mom comes first and leaves after at least, 3 months....
Then MIL can now come.

Omugwo is solely for your mum! But exceptions do occur whenever necessary. In Igbo tradition your hubby will have to go and invite your mum by first seeking permission from your dad(her husband) she comes with plenty edibles (bought by her money and your hubby's) this is cause both of you are not expected to go out eg market during the duration. When she's done and is leaving you and your hubby will send her back with gifts of appreciation. Her duties is just to pamper you, help with the baby while you rest, bathe you and the baby while you recover from child delivery

Your mil can come whenever she likes but due to space and power tussle(conflicting opinions) mils are advised to come after your mum have left.

mum Ijelex try to stay calm because d great physician will give d doctors wisdom and understanding to do d rite tin, stay relax and work wit them. It is well wit u and lo

This your question causes major kwanta between my mum and I. She claims that it's the mil job while I believe it's the mum so just imagine the fights we have whenever I put to bed cos she only stays till after naming and leaves me with mil who basically is battling with health issues of her own. I end up doing my things myself.
Though some people will say that it's whomever the woman is more comfortable with. Since your mom stays in abj it would be easier for her to come to you than your mil and if you are on very good terms sha mil can come later for extended visit
Also different cultures have different rules for omugwo so you might need to ask your husband people too

Hmm
I'm from south south. Lemme start asking my relatives how it's done in my place

That's how I will be laughing anyhow when I'm reading it

jazzyjazz:
Hmmmm
This is serious o!

My mum is the one in abj, MIL is in Jos
I remember one time like that when I was in 2nd trimester, my mum said that she's not supposed to leave her house to come and do omugo, that my dh is supposed to bring me to her house instead and I was like in this day and age? Hian! I sha told her that won't happen o! I kukuma told her to sha get ready to come and live with us for the period of the omugo after lo is born. Me I kent shout biko!

because this is the first grandchild of both families, I really want to be cautious b4 dem go carry am do me shege for my next missionary journey

That is how it starts ooo. Like play like joke. Pls try to sort it out before the D day. So you won't be disappointed

Mine is May3rd

Rhemy2013:

Hello dear, please what's the health benefit of this pre natal gummies to pregnant women. Sorry am new here, my wife and I got married recently, last month precisely and She is now 5weeks pregnant. I am glad to see this thread which I will send the link to her to join the family. Thank you

Hmmm, cultural practices can be so funny, am Yoruba so will explain how I know we do omugwo in my own way, when a woman marries,they believe you now belong to your husband's family so its the MIL that comes to take care of both the wife and the baby when the wife gives birth(so far she is alive and agile), the wife's mother might not even show at all and even if she shows up she won't sleep on the couple's place in as much as the MIL is around. I and my parents live in Ilorin while my MIL lives in Ogun state, when I gave birth to my first my mum came to our house to care for me and the baby for 3days because my MIL wasn't around, she came the 4th day and took over for 3months and my mum had to go back to her house.

Good morning my able women. I just want to rant this morning. Morning Sickness is a b**ch!! . Since on Saturday, I dont know the person inside my body is. Headache, vomiting, being hungry but cant eat anything. The only thing that agreed to pass my throat is carrots and apples. I'm at work right now but feeling soo tired and sleepy. I'm just looking at all the files on my table and I feel like crying. Please what can I do to alleviate this or na so e go continue until it stops?

First of all, congratulations to you and your wife. Pls send her this link so she can come here to share her thoughts and concerns and also contribute to things she has knowledge about.

She can also come here to rant about her preggy wahala as much as she wants - we are always all ears. Lol.

She can come here and unleash those preggy hormones 


Prenatal gummies are equivalent to the drugs your wife will be given at the hospital to help the baby develop. It contains a pregnant woman needs for her growing fetus. The gummies is also an easier version of medication for women who hate to swallow pills as the gummies taste like fruits and it makes it easier for her to keep up with her medication. 

Other sabi mamas will contribute to your question.
