Sorry for the break in transmission grin
The pains subsided after the injection and everything went back to normal. At 34 weeks, I saw blood stain and was advised to go to the clinic whichh i did, I was checked and they said all was well but was asked to go for scan which I did the next day. The scan was done and was told everything was alright in there and my Edd was 24th of April.

On the 30th of March while taking my bath, i noticed some liquid came out of my body but assumed it was urine. After bathing, I bent down to wash my down below cos the discharge was too much that morning, I tried to dip my finger into my vagina to at least clean the area. While doing this, I noticed the discharge was sticky like cattarh, I quickly wash up and dried my body and was about to go out of the bathroom when something just told me to look down and there i saw the "show" on the floor. I wrapped it up in tissue and headed straight to the clinic with it(my pant was getting wet and had to use tissue)
I was checked but was told the cervix was still closed, I was told not to bother myself about anything since my all my edd was April ending, one of the scan gave me May 5 sef, they gave me cotton wool and told me to come back by evening if the water continues. I went back home to finish my chores before going out again but went back home early cos my pant was wet.
I waited for my husband to come back in the evening before going to the clinic and was checked again but yet the cervix was still closed, I was asjed if I was feeling any pain which I said no and we were asked to go back home and come back if anything changes.
The water kept on coming all through the night with little irregular pains (while all these was happening, i was begging God not to allow me give birth now cos i was just 36weeks and 6 days gone)
The next morning I called the matron to explain situation of things and she told me to come right away, I went and still nothing yet, my husband called her from work to admit me so I'll be properly monitored but I insisted that I'm alright and went back home. I bought food on my way home, ate and slept off with the pains.
By 2pm, I got up, took bike and went out to get some stuffs, by the time i got back around 3_4pm the pains was back to back all thanks to the aboki bike man(I still didn't believe baby was about to come with all the pains) by 5pm the contraction was 5minutes apart, i called the matron, she said I should start coming by 8pm. I went to the kitchen to prepare dinner with water gushing out at each contraction, I finished up and ate at the middle of each contraction.
My hubby came in past 7pm, I didn't tell him how I was feeling, he took his bath and ate. It was after he finished eating that I told him what was happening and he started shaking like jellyfish, I told him all was well and we headed to the hospital. We got to the hospital some minutes to 9p.m. I was checked and was told that I was 2cm gone but the cervix was thick so I was given drip and then I started vomiting, I vomited at each contraction.
By some minutes to 12a.m. I called them to come check me but they refused saying I still have long way to go and they don't want to be dipping their hands inside me anyhow. By 11:50pm i shouted that I wanted to poop, that was when they now checked and I was quickly rushed to the labour room.
By 12:10a.m. I pushed after I've been cut and my princess popped out, few minutes after, the placenta came out and the stitching began. My baby gave me tear while coming out plus the one given to me by the matron. In all, I return all glory back to God.

I thought I'll be back by 2023 before, but with the look of things and the pains i experienced, I hereby hang my boot till only God knows when.

no migraine again. Doc gave her anti malaria drugs at the last antenatal visit yesterday.
Same here. Been having migraine for more than 4 weeks now and the funniest thing is that It started few days after I treated malaria and typhoid. Well, on Friday I complained to my doctor and he told me to treat malaria again, I honestly told him that would be the 3rd time I'll be treating malaria in this pregnancy and we haven't gotten close to due date oh. Well I went to the pharmacy to buy the drugs and glory to God my headache has reduced. Before when I wake up like this enh, I can't even see because the migraine will just be banging my head. Also complained about my swollen legs on Friday, doctor said it's normal swelling and my BP is okay and there's no protein in my urine. So no need to fret. Thankfully, the swelling has reduced. In fact through out yesterday my legs were close to normal. I guess it's the long hours I use in sitting down in school that's affecting the legs. The first day it started, I thought 4 straight periods and was sitting down although.

BS! BS!! BS!!!
PRE PREGNANCY
I got pregnant March 2020 and was with team December 2020. I started noticing spotting when I was 4 weeks gone. I went to hospital and was given some drugs and asked to return if it didn't stop in 3 days. It did stop before the three days elapsed. I went for scan at 9 weeks and the sonographer said everything is ok that heartbeat cannot be detected quickly like that, that we will be able to hear the heartbeat when it's over 12 weeks(olodo somebody). The spotting returned and I went to another place for scan and I was told it's blighted ovum. I rejected it and went back to my quack Sonographer who reassured me once more that everything is ok( even though I know in my mind that all is not ok) May God answer all those who are looking for fruit of the womb.
To cut the long story short I lost the pregnancy. It came out on it's own.
PREGNANCY
My period returned before a month and I got the bfp that same month. First trimester was so easy, no morning sockness, nothing. Second trimester came with Carpal tunnel syndrome. It started from the left wrist to the right wrist( still on it) Third trimester was sweet too.
DELIVERY
At exactly 39 weeks, I just wanted to turn on the bed just to see water gushing out. No signs prior to this. I and hubby left for hospital immediately at around 7am. The water just dey gush out and I no wear pant, the nurse abuse shege for my body(lol) that I'm messing der hospital. I wasnt having any contraction. I was checked and at 3cm. I was given two options for inducement or cs because I've lost almost all the water. If I know make I choose cs jeje. I chose to be induced. Contraction started back to back and by 4-5pm I was fully dilated. That was when they knew I have oval shaped whatever they call it and I can't deliver on my own. I died and resurrected. They called surgeon to come which took like 2 and half hours. I honestly thought I wasn't going to make it. I was placed on oxygen. Doctor came and that was the last thing I remembered. I woke up shouting where's my pregnancy. I became only calm when I saw my prince charming. I give all the glory to God. I appreciate all mamas in this family. May God protect our Los and answer all GTC mothers.
This is tyreal signing out.

Amen.....

Am fine and you? Have just be dealing with insomnia and pelvic pain

In other news, I don't know what they call this tape rule measurement they usually do at every antenatal clinic, The thing measured 37 weeks on Tuesday as against 35 weeks, sabi mamas how accurate is this tape rule measurement?
..

The measurement is suppose to tally with the number of weeks you are. But it's perfectly okay, if the tape measures two inches ahead or 2 inches below. For instance now that your 35 weeks the measurement should be around 32inches to 37 inches. The only problem is when you measure 3 inches above or below your due date. If the measurement is small it may mean that the baby is not growing properly while an higher number may mean that the baby is too big for his gestational age. But take note the there are several factors that affect the size of your baby bump, the position of the baby, your height e.t c can make the measurement below or above the gestational age. When I was pregnant with my second child, I measured 27 weeks at 30 weeks, the doctor was concerned and asked me to carry out a scan just to be sure that everything was alright, the scan measurement gave 30weeks, so there was no cause to worry because scan proved that my baby was right at her gestational age.

Of course baby has been confirmed to be head down and everything okay...
Just some offline mamas saying horribly things about induction gone wrong is an inevitable CS... there is a high tendency that a baby with head down would spin many times as a result of the induction, when this happens the only alternative is CS hence if you intend to be induced, you should equally plan a CS incase...
Who be all these people sef? I was induced at 40 weeks + 5 days during my second pregnancy. The labour was forced cause i wasnt showing any sign of labour at all, i was induced at 5pm and delivered around some minutes to 11 the next day. I laboured through out the night ( God i dont want to experience that kind of prolonged labour again) but all went well to God's glory. Please don't let anyone put fear in you. Your baby is already head down, I doubt that indication will make him change positions. Please just have a free mind, there's nothing to be worried about. 0

Sabi Mamas, trust we are cool
Long story, scan gave my edd as 5th April while FMC gave 6th
Today 6th we are actually 40 weeks and a day gone.
A private doctor has been preaching inducement and preferably elective CS,
Baby weighs about 3.8
STM, although my first baby was induced n delivered normal.

Thinking its way too early, how much more do you think I can still hold on before opting for inducement? Is it bad waiting till we clock 41weeks? Heard at this point, baby grows by the day, how true?

I am restless
I need una candid advice....help a mama biko
Please wait for another 1 week. Most babies don't come on their due date. It's usually two weeks to or two weeks after. Though most doctors are likely to induce at 41 weeks. But who is that doctor preaching elective cs? undecided he wan chop money?

Lol. I went for Antenatal for the 1st time, the Clinic referred me to a lab for Scan. Their report says my EDD is April 27. I laughed. (When I'm barely 6mnths and in my 2 nd Trimester)
These machines eh.

I don't understand why the machine will give you April as your due date, when you're still in your second trimester? Abi their machine nor good? huh Did you give the scan result to your Doctor?

Want to ask about the scan.

We have done 4 different scans but the edd dates differs.

So confused.

Which one can we choose among the scan.

One say june
Others say May.
Choose the one given by your doctor or the first scan you did in the first tremester. If you carry out a scan on the day you are to deliver, scan will still give you another date. I remember my first child, my doctor gave me 23 of November. First scan gave me 27 or so, in fact I did scan on the day I completed 40 weeks and that one gave me ending of December. But went into labour 1st of December, that's almost two weeks after the due date given to me by my doctor. I believe it's better to go with the date of your LMP calculated by your doctor.

As for the malaria drugs, I complained to doc abt my severe headache during my last appointment, expected him to gimme antimalarial drugs at least, he said to 'watch it', that the h.ache wud go on its own.
I had a strange (weak) feeling on Friday, today, i jejely walked in to d hosptl to request for the antimalarial drugs (Fansidar) myself, d doc on duty was like; 'have u not had any since u got preg!?', I said No ooo...
So she agreed to giv me.
... Am not a fan of drugs at all, but I dont think i have taken it for close to 2 years now, as I dey always fear fear for drugs while TTCing. + some info I saw here recently regardn it made me decide to ask for it!

3. At tests, I have only had d general test once also.
Subsequent ones were just vitals.[/quote]So you're having frequent headache like me. I have been managing it, but will speak to my doctor about it in my next antenatal visit.

Manual didn't work for me. No matter how hard I try to pump, I even get more from hand expressing. I tried it for my first child, it didn't work and also tried it for my second child same result. I bought the manual for #1200 then,I add a fellow colleague who bought hers for #200 and it worked well for her. I guess manual doesn't work for some persons. This time around I'm going to invest in a good electric pump by God's grace

I had this issue with all my pregnancies and my OB said it’s due to low protein and to try and eat more protein. I did and it helped. Also drinking a lol bit of caffeinated drinks like Coca Cola or a small cup of coffee always took the headache away for me. You can try that.
Tylenol also helped me, any med with acetaminophen as its active ingredient should take the edge off
Thanks. You have a point here, been eating more of carbohydrates for a while now.
