Beautifulwadding mamas, New mamas Senior mamas October teamies and cappo pweetiebabe i hail o. I want to sincerely apologise for sending in my BS really late. Mommas are the reall MVPs i must confess. Not being easy combining School, work, exams and Lo plus no omugwo.

My plan was to submit my BS latest a week after delivery but i cant believe its past a month.. ejor ema binu. My BS is a really long epistle please brace up...lolz

My BS

He has done so much for me
That I cannot tell it all
I cannot tell it(2ce)
He has done so much for me
That I cannot tell it all
I can not tell it all

To the God of my Journeys,
Oba ti n tini leyin ti ki tiniloju,
Obatintetisini… I am the one who has returned with thanks because indeed only you can do what no man can do.
Long before I got married, my elder sister (a Medical Doctor) told me to make it known that my threshold for pain was very low cause I couldn’t bear pain in the body of any kind. Jokingly She would say I shouldn’t call her whenever I am in Labour..lolz
Started ANC at 13 weeks on a foreign soil and I was surprised it wasn’t like back home where people would be educated on the basic things to know before and after birth. You walk in, see your gynaecologist, make necessary complain and leave. Worst part, most fellow pregnant women I meet on my appointment days couldn’t speak my language hence, I couldn’t even relate with them. As a ftm, I was relieved when I discovered this trend on Nairaland…Oh what joy that feels my soul.
I was given 2nd October as my EDD but prayed and wished that Lo shows up in the month of September(My wedding anniversary Month). At 37weeks (15/09/2017) I presented at the hospital and the gynaecologist was to conduct vaginal examination (my worst nightmare) but she couldn’t. I was scared to my marrow. She herself was scared. I cried and screamed. She asked me how I intend to deliver and if I wasn’t careful it will be CS. Meanwhile, my health insurance does not cover pregnancy and having to pay from our pocket was nerve cracking how much more if na CS.
I prayed, declared the word of God, read supernatural childbirth that was shared on the platform and believed God while I said to myself that I would take it one step at a time


Watch out for part 2

Mamas please say a word of prayer for my father.....

It is well with your father
I cover him with the blood of Jesus
Father shield and protect him

Fast Forward….
On 23rd of September, I was to get my hair braided in preparation for delivery having made appointment for home service a week earlier. On 22/09/2017 (Friday), I cleaned the bathroom and toilet to make fit for a guest to use…She never showed up sha…Awon oni ise owo sha…mtchew.
After urinating on Saturday evening, I used tissue paper to wipe as usual. Alas! I saw a very scanty blood on the tissue, brownish in color (similar to when the menstrual period has ended and the blood was fading away). Immediately, I showed DH and told him I guess the baby is about to make her appearance.
By Sunday, the quantity of the scanty blood had increased and it came with cramps which I felt was usual and would go if I massage with towel soaked in water. I informed my sister who then asked me to time the so called cramps which ended up to be inconsistent.
On Monday morning, DH and I set out to put some things in order and I just decided to put my ANC card in my bag and my delivery deposit ($235) even though I took it along for another purpose should incase we needed more money for our runs.
We walked for several minutes and I started feeling the cramps again (didn’t dawn on me I was having contractions already). I would walked for some minutes and when the cramps came up, I would catch some breathe before we continued. Thereafter, I was thirsty and wanted to take Iced tea but I decided to finish our runs before taking the iced tea. Finally, we got to a food court and DH advised I take a proper meal since the last I had was a small portion of food for breakfast and it was 5pm already (never knew that was the last meal before delivery) thank God I obeyed!!!
We rounded off quickly to meet up with prayers in church which was to run from 6pm-7pm. I encouraged DH to go ahead of me as I decided to just check with my gyneacologist. She checked for vital signs and it was time to be examined through the vagina. Omo no be small something! That thing hard me no be small o. She was dumbfounded and asked the usual question “Madam, how do you intend to deliver?” I replied God will help me. She then gave me a drug to take saying if it were to be false labour, the drug would stop the contraction and if not I should return to the maternity. I took a short trip to the maternity, walked round it, prayed and later left. On my way to church to join DH, 10minutes walk became about 30minutes walk. It was as if the contraction had increased, I would walk for some minutes when the contraction came, I would pretending I was receiving a phone call so as not to attract onlookers.
I got to the church at 7pm and took the drug as instructed. After prayers, DH had to join the ministers meeting while i waited for him in my Pastor’s wife’s office. I shared my experience with the pastor’s wife and she prayed with me. DH checked up on me to have the feedback from the hospital but I asked him to finish up with his meeting first. After the meeting at about 10pm, my pastor’s wife returned to her office and she met me trying to take different positions to relieve myself from the way I was feeling. She called her husband (a Nurse turned fulltime pastor), I explained to him and he said if it was false contraction that it would have ended longtime ago and he suggested I return to the hospital that night. Using my Ijebu mind, I told him my hospital fee would start counting from that night. He then took DH and I in his vehicle accompanied by his wife with the intention of taking us home. At a T junction that leads to either my house or hospital, My pastor asked again, “do you want to go home or hospital?” but he reiterated that there was no crime in checking and if its not the real thing, he would take us home. I then agreed to check at the hospital. He responded that he had decided to take us to the hospital because from his observation, I was in labor. In my mind, I was like this cant be labour as I could talk and didn’t feel pain like what I had read etc.

At the Hospital
When we arrived at the maternity at 10:30pm, we had to ask for an English speaker to attend to me. Then I was to be examined again it became a tug of war! My pastor’s wife had to hold one of my legs while the nurse held the other. Fetal heartbeat monitor was strapped around as the nurse waited for contraction before inserting her finger for dilation. Finally I was checked and I was 6cm gone. It dawned on me that that was it but the books I had read and the things I had seen on this trend were playing back. I remember a mama here adviced that epidural should be taken around that 4cm or so Since I presented at 6cm, I couldnt. so I told God He has brought me this far and wont leave me at that point. My Pastor and DH hurriedly went home to pick my already packed box as the nurse announced that my dilation was progressing.
I was placed on a bed while I tried to relieve myself of the contraction by listening to songs and speaking in tongues. Few minutes later I was placed on the delivery table.
