So sorry but I don't know anything about this, just wanna help you tag more people.

Kemifemi, Diazepam is Valium, supposed to calm you down. It's not the best drug ever, especially in Pregnancy. Did the Dr tell you the side effects for pregnant women? It's for 6 nights only, so it may be safe, because your Gynae probably weighed the cost-benefit for you and felt you were low-risk. HBP in pregnancy is dangerous so it must be treated. However, call your Gynae and discuss all the ramifications with him/her before taking it. Ask if this is the best thing for you and the fetus, safety-wise and what next if it doesn't address the issue (you should not take it long term). That's what I did when I was prescribed things I wasn't sure of.

We done, for doing your homework and checking if it was safe before swallowing smiley A lot of people just take drugs without doing their checks. I checked, I discussed and hours later, my Gynae called me and said it was not worth the risk and I shouldn't take the pills or do whatever invasive test.

Diazepam is a muscle relaxant.Your doctor is trying to control your elevated blood pressure. Most drugs have their side effects but sometimes you use it when the benefits outweigh the risks.A constantly elevated blood pressure in pregnancy can lead to pre-eclampsia which is a serious issue to deal with.
I'm sure your doctor placed you on low dose which you have to use for just few days so it's safe.
If your BP continues to stay elevated,you will be managed till you get to 37weeks and your choice will be a C/S to bring the baby out because that's the only solution to the hypertension.
Cut off salt intake too and try to take foods rich in potassium like oranges,tomatoes etc and drink lots of water.


Thanks so much. I was placed on 5mg per night. I slept with legs on the pillow to reduce swelling. I only had a mild headache this morning.

I appreciate.

Hi i4eva, I think so... St Kizito hospital seems very good and the staff are courteous, seem to know what they're doing and ready to answer all questions. So far so good... If you are along this axis, they may be worth checking out
Thanks dearie but I've already found someplace else.

Hbp in pregnancy is not always related to external stress factors. Do what you can in terms of life style changes as some mamas have suggested.

See another doctor for a second opinion about the medication.

Ask your dr for any warninf signs you need to watch out for,

And please please please go for the cs as soon as advised by your doctor.. i take it he is trying to delay it till you get to full term. Sometimes it may not be an option.... mother and pre-term baby alive is better than full term pregnancy with comma and aprostrophe at the end oh.

Thank u. Will gladly listen to my dr. I no get choice na. It took more than 4 years to conceive. My eyes see pepper.

I aint gambling o

Take it easy .

They do it for the purpose of starting labour. It wasn't a pleasant experience in my first pregnancy and to think I have to go through it again...hmmm. On another note, I can't thank you enough. I checked out Queensway and was blown away. I planned going to check out Teejays hospital first but got lost as I went all the way to a place after Ajah before asking for directions. I almost cried when the guy giving me directions asked me to turn back. I had to turn back into the insane traffic continuing my search for Teejays but decided to make a stop first at Queensway which fortunately was on my side of the road. I walked in there and I must say I feel really glad that I did. By the way, the nice doctor I met kept wanting to know who referred me. grin Annnnnnnnd... that amount you mentioned they charge is totally different from what I was told oo. Na 180k for V.D apart from any other thing.

Membrane sweep is painful but endurable.
Please don't be scared oooo.
If the doc wants to check how far u've dilated he will still check u. That time sef u won't feel d pain much when contraction hook u.

Put ur mind at the price. It is well

plz mamas who has gone tru VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean ) before successfully.

what is your experience and how did u scale tru?

am a bit worried after my doc said i may be considered for CS due to previous history of giving birth tru cesarean. he explained vividly the reasons why and medically its to prevent unlikely complications like uterine rupture or foetal distress.
