It hasn't yet. I have changed by brand of spirit, yet it no sign. The peadetrician suggested I umbilical gel too.

I don't know what to do again

StarryV:
Good Morning fruitful mamas. It appears I'm suffering Insomnia but that notwithstanding I'm here to pour out my concern and get answers to my questions. Who knows if that's why sleep haff left my eye sef. #sighs.

So I went for a scan two days ago, was told by the sonographer that my baby is in Oblique position (diagonal, like the head is resting on my hip). It's not horizontal and it's not vertical. I asked about the baby size, he didn't tell me the actual baby size. I asked if he was over-weight judging by the gestational age he said "no he's not, but there's a tendency of that happening" whatever that means. I'm 31weeks gone
So my concerns are these...:
1. What can I do to aid this oblique position?
2. Is there any sleeping position recommended just for the purpose of turning the baby on time? (I'm asking this because MIL is advising I sleep on my right side, since the baby's head is on my right hip). I sha don't buy that advice.
3. How do I know if he's turning downwards or upwards?
4. What assurance do I have that my baby will be in cephalic position in 5weeks time?
5. Abeg this baby size/weight that the Sono is talking about like this, is there any food or drink I should avoid completely until delivery. And is there any particular food recommended to be taking at this point.
These and many more questions are going through my mind. Please kindly help in answering any of the questions that you have answers to.
Meanwhile my baby is very very active and moves a lot even as I type. I just hope he's moving to the right direction mbok

This is why I am never too in a hurry to announce my bfp. Because I might be disappointed at the end. Another miscarriage at 7 weeks. Baby embryo stopped growing. No heartbeat. This is the second miscarriage the first was December. What could be the cause mamas. Am devastated.

ABG2222:
Hello everyone
I've been peeping through the window . Didn't know how to come in

I'm coming from the ttc group, got my bfp last week. I'm the most confused pregnant woman on earth. Don't know how many weeks I'm at

Last MP was April 14 due to pcos, even hubby doesn't know cos I was tired of irregular menses all the time despite all the drugs till I took in. In all I'm so happy to be here.

I'm here for guidance please. Ladyracy bdmate how are you doing sis

LUGBE:
Thanks for sharing but seriously i do not see need for diclofenac in that prescription abi am i the only one seeing this. I decided to speak out so that another parent will not make this mistake or use this prescription. I really do not want to comment further but pls let us ask some questions in the hospital from the doctor, nurse and pharmacist e get why atimes your questions bring their consciousness back and you will be attended to well. You are so right .the pain reliever drug should have been paracetamol or ibuprofen

Oh dear Lord, I am a mother!!!!

This is so surreal, I am a mother .

mzMerci:
Birth story!!!

I had my first myomectomy at 20. They were 9 fibroids and the biggest was pedunculated, cystic and subserous which made the surgery of importance. My doctors counseled me to start planning p

Omakraid:

Hello ma, baby being in an oblique lie at that moment you had the scan does not mean he is still in an oblique lie at present.. There's still enough space in the uterus for him to move around and he's still moving... I had a scan at 33 weeks that showed my baby was breech and the following week I went for antenatal with the result.. Immediately my doctor saw the result he told me to lay down for a scan, on scanning my baby was cephalic again... You are not 36 weeks or more yet so lots of n positive things can happen regarding any turning.

Also try reading about the position online but be open as he's still turning here and there

shiller:

Please Ma no too much think amooo,u are just 31weeks now..more 9 weeks to go...u cant expect baby to be engage at this time now....

Some women sef at 38 weeks scan d baby is still not engage till during birth..

You pray and say baby be head down when its time..

And again about weight,i have heard some mama's saying they reject so many tns bcs they don't want baby to gain weight yet dey still birth 3.8kg 3.5kg babies..

Buh that sonographer suppose write the baby weight or atleast answer you..

Just eat right ooo,no special food to avoid or to eat at this moment,buh as they said dont eat for two..

My own opinion

Sassy256:

Teamie, you don't have any problems so please stop worrying.
It's too early, baby has ample time to turn and be in the right position before birth.
Guard your mind and continue sleeping more on your left as usually advised.
Insomnia is a bit common at this stage so please don't stress it.
Baby weight,..me sef will be reading to get suggestions on that one

ladyrachy:
@Starryv to add to what I earlier said since ur baby is very active use it to ur advantage try using ur palm to guide ur baby I do that at times when my baby stays in a position that's discomforts me. Most times it works BT at times she won't answer me and just remain where she dey. My baby is sensitive to touch I rub my pelvic area when I need her to come down dre as am even typing she's moving to anywhere I touch and am 35 wks +. Don't worry the baby will still stay well okay

NOBILITY22:



You can use Menthodex cough medicine or just mix a teaspoon of original honey in one cup of warm water.

The cough will disappear
