@funmi u r alwayz welkom.shoprite shud hv a range of it,from sweetend to unsweetened,and diffrent flavours too.

Epidural o!

Hahahahaha i don laff die,so u r also afraid?so are actually goin to go 4 d epidural or is it a wish?

@Honiepie...this one no be afraid matter o. I agree with favoredgal, epidural all the way. I remember when I had my daughter, my husband and I agreed that it would be a natural birth, when labour started (Jesus is Lord) I take my eye see my ear. I was I'm terrible pain and didn't go beyond 5cm dilation, i later started screaming for the epidural, and while it was being prepared, i was shouting for them to hurry up, and at a point my baby became distressed and I had to have an emergency CS. Not trying to scare anybody here, cos people have natural births everyday, but it didn't work for me. At the end of the day, it's what works well for the baby.


So sorry for the long post.

By Gods grace im booking epidural upfront...iv had more than my own share of writhin in pain in addition to stooling and vomitting every month....if labor pain is anything like the menstrual cramps i have i shudder to even think...anyways will cross that bridge when i get there!

@mackieb...how old is your baby?

@favored gal... My baby is 18months old.

@favored gal...menstral cramp is child's play compared to labour pain. When I first got to the hospital and told them no epidural, the nurse looked me in the face and said "darling you will not receive any award if you want to go through that pain since there is an easy way out". I wish I listened earlier.

Favoredgal, don't allow me post my e-mail i beg, its my full name, its going 2 be real expo.
I can post my  pin or even fone no instead. Tanks as i await direction on way forward from you.you made me ‎=))laffº°°º≈wanº°°º≈condemnº°°º≈myº°°º≈jawº°°º≈ sha, U̶̲̥̅̊ never see labour U̶̲̥̅̊ book epidural! My case was like Mackieb o, i was begging ‎Fø̲̣̣я̅ cs after 19hrs labour at 4cm, 4 my 2nd baby, i was spared d pain. Na Cs sharp!

WAYS TO SHED OFF 10 POUNDS IN A
WEEK.

Weight is an issue that almost everyone
struggles with. Safe for the genetically gifted
members of the population that can eat what
they want and not exercise and yet still stay
in shape, everyone else has to practice
proper care to maintain a relatively desired
shape of their body. The vain nature of
people has probably been the main cause for
why so many people are so caught up in what
the scale says. In a society that greatly
values the attractive qualities of people,
being out of shape can make one an object of
ridicule and disinterest.

As unpleasant a reality as it is that superficial
qualities are improperly valued, such is the
case. It is almost an inevitable aspect of
society. The value people put on their weight
of course goes beyond just the superficial
fare. It is also a measure of great health to
be in the proper range of weight for one's
body type. Being in shape not only makes
one more attractive but it also enables them
to be more active and to partake in many
more endeavors. That is the gift of self-
discipline but not many have the patience for
it.

A week is a short time to accomplish
anything of real significance. Seven days are
after all not long at all, especially in this new
fast paced world. How is one then expected
to accomplish something significant such as
to lose ten pounds in such a brief period of
time. The key then lies in the two most
effective ways of losing weight no matter how
long a period of time allotted.

Those are of course to exercise and to
maintain a proper diet. Unless one plans
on spending an entire week in the gym, it
seems to be too short of a time period for
one to exercise and still expect a severe dent
in their weight figure. Exercise can still help
though. It is always wise to spend an amount
of time staying active and moving those
muscles. At the very least exercising can
keep one busy and take their minds off food
which is another key element if one is to lose
10 pounds in a week.
The diet is a key element if one wishes to
drop those ten pounds quickly. The first step
is with breakfast and the food for this time of
day includes 2 eggs without salt. Excluding
the salt prevents water retention. Lunch will
entail the consumption of leaner proteins
such as turkey. Turkey served with some
vegetables can be a filling option for those
looking to drop pounds.
This can also work as a dinner option.

The
essence of the diet is to limit carbohydrates
and consuming lean proteins so that one can
feel full without eating as much. It is also
recommended to avoid sweet foods during
this time and to also drink lots of water.
Losing 10 pounds in a week may seem like a
very daunting proposition, but it is
achievable. The key lies in exercise, a low
carbohydrate diet and the right amount of
discipline to achieve this goal.
