I drank mine as asked by the nurses. I was also given Potassium chloride. My bp was 200/110 last night, later on 176/108. So they said I will be given labethanol if it gets to 110.

shocked shocked shocked shocked
I'm going to be harsh on you!! Unless you want to leave that hospital in a bodybag, drop your phone, trust your doctors, commit everything else to God's hands and bloody relax!!!!

Your baby has been given drugs to mature its lungs already, your baby will be fine even if they bring it out today. But they can't when your bp is dangerously high.
A mama here had her baby at 30weeks and they're both fine, your baby is fine and it needs you alive.

Thanks Ma'am for the fast reply.
I used to be scared of hospital. But, I am fine now. The care services from the doctors, nurses to the cleaners here is top notch. My mind is at rest now.
Nurse Kaffy, please can you recommend other natural ways to stabilize the BP? I don't want to be induced cry

. Cucumbers worked a lot for me.
Like lots of it.
You'll go to the toilet often but your BP will crash.

Please if given the option of being induced and a CS, go for CS.
Induction will add more pressure and your BP might skyrocket.
Even during normal childbirth, your BP rises considerably.

You need absolute bedrest and like Sugah said, put your phone away. During my time, they cleared my bed of all books and phones including my Quran sef.
Absolute bedrest. Don't stress your brain or your heart. Just let the drugs to the work.


Best of luck to you and your little one.

Good evening, all.
So I went for my ultrasound scan and test today.
Scan says baby is already is the cephalic presentation. Worry number one, settled! wink
Baby weighs 2.4kg (I'm so surprised with this my big bump, though thankful).
Then PCV is 34%
Is this okay? Or does it need to be boosted? If yes, what can I do to help it?
@Kaffy4bill help me here please

Your result is okay.. nothing to worry about..

Good evening mothers and fathers in the house. Sure everything is fine. It is well with us all.

Ok, I went for antenatal today and some people came to talk to us about Umbilical cord from emzor pharmaceuticals. They said after bathing your baby, clean the cord area and apply emxidine gel not spirit again because spirit is alcoholic. Just use your hand to spread over the stump.

Now, my question is this; can one clean the area with warm water using wool balls and dry with methylated spirit before applying the gel?

Sorry there was no much time for questions and answers.

It will end in praise.

P4perissos:
Hemorrhoid/pile is dealing with me. The thing don come out. The pain is terrible. What can I do���

These are some of the tested home remedies for hemorrhoid in pregnancy.
• Use wipes or pads that contain witch hazel.
• Use gentle, flushable wipes when you use the toilet.
• Use a sitz bath or soak in clean warm water for 10 minutes at a time, few times daily
• Hold an ice pack on the area for a few minutes several times a day.
• Move around frequently and try not to sit for too long to avoid extra pressure on your anus.
• Drink lots of water and eat foods high in fiber to help keep stools soft.
• Avoid straining while having a bowel movement or sitting on the toilet for long periods of time.
• Perform Kegel exercises to strengthen muscles.
• Lie on your side rather than sitting to reduce pressure on your anus.

Hope this helps
One love always

My post on IG today is on cord care abd signs of cord infection.

New research shows no gel or alcohol is needed for the cord. Keeping it clean and dry is the way to go.

Maybe you do drink the water in large quantities,make sure you always have a cup of water beside you.
Drink often and in small quantities.

Sorry there was no much time for questions and answers.

From what mommies here have said, you're not supposed to use both. Use either spirit or gel. Using both can be counterproductive.

Of course Emzor will want to sell their gel so they'll say it's better than spirit lol. However minus marketing, I feel gel will be easier and less stressful to apply. It's also a newer and more specific technology so probably better. Also I think WHO programs now distribute gel and not spirit, that gives some credibility.

The whole idea of spirit or gel is to prevent infection because of our tropical environment.

In my mind the only thing that makes cord fall fast is one herb, 2 days cord don fall. I don't know the name sha, but my in-laws have out in their compound. Abroad they just keep the area dry, and the cord will still fall.

If you're in Nigeria please listen to your local health practitioners and use either spirit or gel to avoid stories that touch.
