Birth story: Team April. FTM
Thanking God for his mercies. My EDD was for 17/4/17. On the 9th, I noticed some brownish discharge with some mucus that continued flowing till Monday. About 6 pm that evening, felt some mild cramps, which soon progressed to mild contractions. I downloaded a contraction timer app and noticed it wasn't regular, more like each lasting 1 min in about 10-12 mins interval. I and my husband just decided to observe as I didn't want to have to go and spend a long time in hospital or stay overnight. Well by the time we went to bed, contractions became much stronger lasting 45-60secs every 5-6 mins. I endured through the night frequently urinating and passing soft stool.
Now, the morning of 11/4/17, Hubby wasn't comfortable leaving me at home so we said to just check in at the hospital and I was ready to come back home as I didn't feel the real thing had started. I was checked and was found to be 5cm!! That check was painful ooo, I screamed sha but I was very glad. Membranes were bulging and doc said would be best to rupture them and admit me for delivery. I had to agree. This was about 9:30am . He then augmented the process with oxytocin aka hot drip !! Lol. It was a progressive increase though as per the dose and contractions became far more regular, stronger and ofcourse more painful! Well 2 hours later and a couple more screams later (my husband was outside feeling so sad for me, he wasn't allowed in), I was fully dilated but before then I had been pushing, so baby came out with some tears around the perineum. Pushing is another waka on its own. Well I was sutured under mild sedation and slept through the process and for 3 good hours afterwardsds. They had to wake me up to see and feed my baby. She can so suck so hard. I was discharged later that evening and we are still coming to terms with our new arrival. She is her dads carbon copy and though seemingly small, a svery strong baby indeed! Breast milk is coming out a bit but I started her on some infant formular to hold her. Taking my meds esp for pain and looking at this gift from heaven. This morning we headed to the clinic for immunization and registration.
So that's it. Its been a wonderful journey. Though I didn't comment much, I learned quite a bit from us here. Sending grace to my team April members and all other teams as well on the queue, the baton has been handed over!.. Enjoy enjoy!!

Congratulations! Beautiful story. God bless baby

Please experienced and knowledgeable mommas. What's the deal with epidural in Nigerian hospitals? Private and public? I'm a ftm and I want to be prepared. I know I other countries; epidural is no big deal so wanna know if one has to request in naija; is it very commonly administered etc.

Also had a myomectomy two years ago; has anyone else had same and gone ahead to have a vaginal birth?? During the myomectomy; epidural was administered and it went well by God's grace.

Thanks for the insight

For diapers molfix is good. There are several good brands but I use molfix. Size 2 is OK for a newborn.
For wipes huggies, pampers, angel baby are good
Bath products I use Nycil but recently switched to cussons cos Nycil is scarce in my area.
For body cream and hair cream I use Shea butter

Perfumes and fragrances for a baby? Never heard of that

I had a myo too a year and a half ago, hoping for a normal delivery. Are you sure it was not spinal anesthesia that was used for your myo.

You will be surprised at the vast array of baby perfume and cologne in the market! I was gifted some Johnson baby cologne when I gave birth but used it on me instead. Baby scent is pure and never offensive so didn't see the need to apply it.

To each their own sha.

13th is tomorrow o! Hope you and Sansa are ready? grin may it end in praise for you all.

cologne/fragrances for babies are actually available by different known brands bt it doesn't seem necessary, like mama liftedhands pointed out since babies av their natural beautiful scent.moreover, one can't tell if there are downsides to using such seemingly unnatural products on babies. I also think dt d smell of deodorant will too harsh on a baby's lungs&d substance on their skin; it is used to control sweat or d smell of it which babies don't av.

Hi dear,
Sorry to hear about the malaria condition. From what I know coartem is not the drug of choice for treating malaria in pregnancy;this is because it can lead to the loss of the pregnancy or other fetal defect problems. Please please please see a gynae immediately and double check for the right medication to be prescribed; he would select a drug of choice based on your trimester. Also let them check your Hb levels to ensure that they are not so low due to the malaria. Wish you a speedy recovery.

Mild cramps is normal cuz your organs are shifting to accommodate the baby, but if it gets painful or unbearable, go to the hospital.

Yeah pregnacare is very safe, but I think they might give you that when you start antenatal. For now you can start taking folic acid
