My bfp happened at a time when I'd lost all hope on TTC but was relentless. I had a very stress free pregnancy. My BP and blood sugar level was always on point, no trace of protein in my urine except for pcv result that came out as 29% at 15weeks which i was placed on blood tonics. At 35 weeks a repeat test was done and it came back as 34%, my worries were over as that was the only thing giving me concerns about labour. Same 35weeks a late dating scan was done which showed my baby weighing 3kg, I was advised to cut down on carbohydrates and do more of fruits and veggies. I wasn't moved by the size as I was convinced that God who kept it there will bring my baby out when it's time. 38 weeks came I was glad I was almost done being pregnant and about to meet our rainbow, the one reason why DH and i cry together. I was already tired of being pregnant and want baby out before the 40weeks mark so I started a 1hr daily walk. At 38 weeks 6days which was my last antenatal, for the first time my BP read 130/90. I had my concerns about it but my Dr assured me it was fine. That same day I had this headache that lasted like 4hrs even after taking PCM. On the day I clocked 39 weeks, I decided to up my walk to 2hrs. I did that day with so much energy and knew that something must happen that night. I went to bed with hope of been awoken by contractions but behold I sleep through the night like a baby, I was really disappointed. 39week 1day was FIL memorial, Dh was seriously praying for our baby to come that day but no, God got other plans. The headache continued again so I told DH that I needed to check my BP as I wasn't comfortable with this headache anymore. We went to the nearest pharmacy to get my baby's soap so I ceased the opportunity to check my BP. I was advised by the pharmacist that I should go check in to my hospital immediately as PCM will only do nothing at this point. When I took a look at the reading, it read 154/110, then I knew it's time to stop the PCM. we went home picked my hospital card and left for the hospital emergency unit. There another reading was done, time it read 157/110 I was immediately placed on admission. Dh was asked to go bring hospital bag as they were suspecting a case of preeclamppsia. This was around pass 2pm in the afternoon. They kept running one test or the other. Drugs was giving to stabilize my BP to prepare me for induction. They were able to get it to 147/100 at mid night or there about. By 4am which was 39 weeks 2days the induction process started. Mi.sopris.tol was inserted to ripen my cervix. At 9am I was checked and confirmed to be 2-3cm dilated. At this point my BP was still constantly been monitored yet it kept going up even after the drugs and injs. Hours later I was having fever with temperature reading at 38.4c and BP 174/110. I was checked to see how far dilated I was, by noon time I was told still 2cm dilated so at this point my membrane was broken to fasten labour. Dr came back to check at pass 4 to see how far dilated again he was shocked to meet me yet again at 2cm. What baffled him most was that baby's head wasn't descending, he was convinced there must be an obstruction somewhere. In all this my baby's heartbeat was constantly been monitored and she was doing fine. He told me he was going to allow me try vaginal delivery but seeing that I wasn't progressing and with my fever and blood pressure constantly on the increase he would advised that I opt for an emergency C-section. I allowed him to finish trying to cajole me and said "Sir, can you pls get my baby out? I've waited for this miracle for 4yrs plus, what's with vaginal delivery?. He was shocked and was like "Madam, if you had told me this earlier I wouldn't have allowed you go through this pain for this long". He asked that the consent form be signed by Dh, i told him Dh was out for a job but was on his way back and asked that my Mil signed and my cousin to bear witness. Consent was giving as we waited for DH to join us before been wheeled to the theater. By pass 5pm I was wheeled in and by 5:45 my princess was brought out weighing 2:8kg with strangling cord around her neck and with the largest meconium Dr said he has ever seen in his years of practice. She was quickly rushed to be resuscitated as she didn't cry. After about 5mins I heard for the first time my baby's cry and I cried. The nurse standing by my head asked if I was feeling pain seeing me crying. I said no but I was in fact in pain. The pain that TTC made me go through came flashing back and i cried that finally TTC just got defeated. I stretched to take a look my princess from afar, smiled and fell into what seems like the best sleep ever. YES, I JUST BECAME A MOTHER.
PART 2 I went into a deep sleep but could hear my DH excited voice from afar even though he was just standing by my head. Woke up to a nurse and said good morning ma, she smiled and said good evening. A repeat pcv was asked to be done 2days after delivery and result came back 20% with me looking all pale. Dr said I bleed alot during the surgery because of my BP and I also had large amount of lochia too. I was asked to be transfused with at least 3paints of blood. The first blood was set and transfusion began. Few minutes after the my heart started clasping together and beating so fast too, I was shooting down. I could hear my baby cry beside me but couldn't reach out to her. Thankfully one of he nurses who came to give babies bcg walked to my bed side and was asking if they had given my baby. I tried with all the strength I could gather to point to the blood and my neck signifying that I was shoking. She called another nursing that I was reacting to the blood. They took my baby from my side, stopped the transfusion and was able to diffused what was on my system. For hours I couldn't get myself nor reach out to my baby who was crying inconsolably, I felt I failed my child and I cried. Next day they insisted on another blood transfusion even though I've been placed on tot'hema 2xdaily. I was too traumatized to go on with another. Told them I would pass on the transfusion and continue my drugs. I was asked for a repeat pcv, that again came back 20%. I was always dizzy but too traumatized to go ahead with another blood transfusion. Family members pleaded with me and encouraged me to take another as I may not react to the next one. Thankfully I was able to get through with 2paints successfully. On the 8day I was still on admission, my baby had to be named in the hospital. Again I failed her but I'm thankful she stayed for us even in the womb while she was having growth reduction and while she swallowed meconium as I battle with BP, she stayed with a perfect heartbeat. Again a repeat pcv test after 48 and 72hrs of transfusion was done and the result came out 34%, hallelujah!!! And so we were finally discharged at about 11:30pm on 23 DEC as I had insisted I wasn't spending one more night in the hospital. Got to MIL's past midnight 24 DEC. My princess had her first Christmas at home. We are home now and recovery has been fast, as mother and child are doing just great. Thank you all for your prayers, words of encouragement, mentions, likes, shares and views. I wanted to give mentions but I fear that I might omit one or two monikers and I don't want to offend anyone. I'm thankful I had your prayers and support through it all, thank you so much. Here's my princess saying thank you all and a merry Xmas. God bless you...

Congratulations darling for the victory over TTC, adorablebaby is cute for Africa.
Congratulations Adorablewifey. Your BS made me cry and rejoice. I celebrate with you and your Adorable princess. Though I'm TTCing I still have hope. AF came yesterday and I cried like I have never done before. But I know it is well. Congratulations once again!
Adorablewifey: Giddyperson come and see our own Diy Christmas outfit. Manage it like that nne.
Manage what? She looks so lovely. What I've saved so I can look at her for 2 more days. I'm so happy. And I'm automatic godmother. Huge congrats to you and your DH.
Adorablewifey: Giddyperson come and see our own Diy Christmas outfit. Manage it like that nne.
Manage Kini,the baby has celebrated her first Christmas. Congratulations, dear! Try and rest very well, you didn't fail your child in any way, you both fought to the end. Imagine experiencing preeclampsia at 39weeks and yet baby weight was 2.8kg. My dear is only God, congratulations again.

rabluk: thank you I really appreciate your message , a big amen to the prayer, I intend going there today to make findings myself hopefully it will go well. Thanks once again.
Oh my february teamie, welcome. Sorry to hear about this situation. Please be strong. May God ease your affairs. I have no idea about these hospitals mentioned but i guess sabi mamas will respond soon. From what i know, i think they should accept u. Pls make findings from d hospitals first n give a reason for your change. I dunno if the private hospital can give you a referal with your history or something. There should be a way around it. May we all carry to term n deliver safely.

They were able to get it to 147/100 at mid night or there about. By 4am which was 39 weeks 2days the induction process started. Mi.sopris.tol was inserted to ripen my cervix. At 9am I was checked and confirmed to be 2-3cm dilated. At this point my BP was still constantly been monitored yet it kept going up even after the drugs and injs. Hours later I was having fever with temperature reading at 38.4c and BP 174/110. I was checked to see how far dilated I was, by noon time I was told still 2cm dilated so at this point my membrane was broken to fasten labour. Dr came back to check at pass 4 to see how far dilated again he was shocked to meet me yet again at 2cm. What baffled him most was that baby's head wasn't descending, he was convinced there must be an obstruction somewhere. In all this my baby's heartbeat was constantly been monitored and she was doing fine. He told me he was going to allow me try vaginal delivery but seeing that I wasn't progressing and with my fever and blood pressure constantly on the increase he would advised that I opt for an emergency C-section. I allowed him to finish trying to cajole me and said "Sir, can you pls get my baby out? I've waited for this miracle for 4yrs plus, what's with vaginal delivery?. He was shocked and was like "Madam, if you had told me this earlier I wouldn't have allowed you go through this pain for this long". He asked that the consent form be signed by Dh, i told him Dh was out for a job but was on his way back and asked that my Mil signed and my cousin to bear witness. Consent was giving as we waited for DH to join us before been wheeled to the theater. By pass 5pm I was wheeled in and by 5:45 my princess was brought out weighing 2:8kg with strangling cord around her neck and with the larges meconium Dr said he has ever seen in his years of practice. She was quickly rushed to be resuscitated as she didn't cry. After about 5mins I heard for the first time my baby's cry and I cried. The nurse standing by my head asked if I was feeling pain seeing me crying. I said no but I was in fact in pain. The pain that TTC made me go through came flashing back and i cried that finally TTC just got defeated. I stretched to take a look my princess from afar, smiled and fell into what seems like the best sleep ever. YES, I JUST BECAME A MOTHER.
PART 2 I went into a deep sleep but could hear my DH excited voice from afar even though he was just standing by my head. Woke up to a nurse and said good morning ma, she smiled and said good evening. A repeat pcv was asked to be done 2days after delivery and result came back 20% with me looking all pale. Dr said I bleed alot during the surgery because of my BP and I also had large amount of lochia too. I was asked to be transfused with at least 3paints of blood. The first blood was set and transfusion began. Few minutes after the my heart started clasping together and beating fast too, I was shooting down. I could hear my baby cry beside me but couldn't reach out to her. Thankfully one of he nurses who came to give babies bcg walked to my bed side and was asking if they had giving my baby. I tried with all the strength I could gather to point to the blood and my neck signifying that I was shocking. She called another nursing that I was reacting to the blood. They took my baby from my side, stopped the transfusion and was able to diffused what was on my system. For hours I couldn't get myself nor reach out to my baby who was crying inconsolably, I felt I failed my child and I cried. Next day they insisted on another blood transfusion even though I've been placed on tot'hema 2xdaily. I was too traumatized to go on with another. Told them I would pass on the transfusion and continue my drugs. I was asked for a repeat pcv, that again came back 20%. I was always dizzy but too traumatized to go ahead with another blood transfusion. Family members pleaded with me and encouraged me to take another as I may not react to the next one. Thankfully I was able to get through with 2paints successfully. On the 8day I was still on admission, my baby had to be named in the hospital. Again I failed her but I'm thankful she stayed for us even in the womb while she was having growth reduction and while she swallowed meconium as I battle with BP, she stayed with a perfect heartbeat. Again a repeat pcv test after 48 and 72hrs of transfusion was done and the result came out 34%, hallelujah!!! And so we were finally discharged at about 11:30pm on 23 DEC as I had insisted I wasn't spending one more night in the hospital. Got to MIL's past midnight 24 DEC. My princess had her first Christmas at home. We are home now and recovery has been fast, as mother and child are doing just great. Thank you all for your prayers, words of encouragement, mentions, likes, shares and views. I wanted to give mentions but I fear that I might omit one or two monikers and I don't want to offend anyone. I'm thankful I had your prayers and support through it all, thank you so much. Here's my princess Janine, Oluwadabira, Oghenetega saying thank you all and a merry Xmas. God bless you...
My bfp happened at a time when I'd lost all hope on TTC but was relentless. I had a very stress free pregnancy. My BP and blood sugar level was always on point, no trace of protein in my urine except for pcv result that came out as 29% at 15weeks which i was placed on blood tonics. At 35 weeks a repeat test was done and it came back as 34%, my worries were over as that was the only thing giving me concerns about labour. Same 35weeks a late dating scan was done which showed my baby weighing 3kg, I was advised to cut down on]
