Almost 23 weeks and iv noticed a reduction in babies movement for like 2days now. Should i be worried??

Mama, trust your instincts, pregnancy is delicate and reduction in movement for 2days is not a joking matter, you can go for a quick scan to clear your doubt

People no dey do bumpy Tuesday again ni ... Oya na show us what your husband gave you na

zaynie:
If I begin to return every quote and every congrats and every mention and every prayer.
Aswear, I'll take 2 pages.
I just want to express my sincere thanks and gratitude.
The show of love here is so enormous and I am honored, humbled and glad to be a part of you guys here.
Thank you so.much for your kind words mamas.
May we always find a reason to celebrate with one another.
Akorede says thank you to all the wonderful mommies here

Washes my basin, we need to do more packing this week

Awwwww....... such a beauty..... See swag sef God bless you cutie

Copied! This made me chuckle!

*For the attention of every woman:*

A woman, renewing her driver's licence , was asked by the woman at Registry to state her occupation.

She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.

'What I mean is, ' explained the woman at Registry, 'do you have a job or are you just a ...?'

'Of course I have a job,' snapped the woman. 'I'm a Mum.'

'We don't list 'Mum' as an occupation, 'housewife' covers it,' Said the recorder emphatically.

I forgot all about her story until one day I found myself in the same situation.
The Clerk was obviously a career woman, poised,
efficient, and possessed of a high sounding title like,
'Official Interrogator' or 'City Registrar.'

'What is your occupation?' she probed.

What made me say it? I do not know. The words simply popped out.

'I'm a *Research Associate in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.'*

The clerk paused, ball-point pen frozen in midair and looked up as though she had not heard right.

I repeated the title slowly emphasizing the most significant words.
Then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement was written, in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.

'Might I ask,' said the clerk with new interest, 'just what you do in your field?'

Coolly, without any trace of fluster in my voice, I heard myself reply, *'I have a continuing program of research*, (what mother doesn't) *In the laboratory and in the field,* (normally I would have said indoors and out).
*I'm working for my Masters*, (first the Lord and then the whole family) *and already have four credits* (all daughters).
*Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities,* (any mother care to disagree?) *and I often work 14 hours a day,* (24 is more like it).
*But the job is more challenging than most run-of-the-mill careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.'*

There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk's voice as she completed the form, stood up, and personally ushered me to the door.

As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up by my glamorous new career, *I was greeted by my lab assistants* -- ages 13, 7, and 3.
Upstairs I could hear our *new experimental model,* (a 6 month old baby) *in the child development program*, testing out a new vocal pattern (crying).

I felt I had scored a beat on bureaucracy! And I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable to mankind than 'just another Mum.'

*Motherhood!!!*
What a glorious career! Especially when there's a title on the door.

Does this make grandmothers
*'Senior Research associates in the field of Child Development and Human Relations'*
And great grandmothers
*'Executive Senior Research Associates?'*
I think so!!!

I also think it makes Aunts '
*Associate Research Assistants.'*


May your troubles be less,
Your blessing be more,
And nothing but happiness come through your door

To all great mums!!!

Tatacherie....... I am even boiling reading this, I mean how insensitive can she be? Evil people everywhere. I feel like slapping sense into her sef. Just give her space biko.

Congratulations Zaynie, May she be a source of joy to you continually

Preciouschinwe:
Amen thanks so much ma, the tests results showed that he has infection and malaria, and the doctor prescribed some drugs for him.

Thanks goodness you went on time. Weldone mama

Preciouschinwe:
thanks ma, we're currently at the hospital because he is been crying nonstop.

Great. He will be fine.

beyedew:
Hello mamas, been trying to catch up since 4am but I never reach finish line, how are you all? Missed you loads .

We're fine. And you?

Preciouschinwe:
good morning mama zaynie and sabi mamas of nl. abeg make una chook mouth for my Mata o I gave birth 2months ago to my Ds and since then he has been battling boils (the once without mouth) we could't even sleep last night he was running temperature & crying thanks in advance.

Please take him to hospital and see a pead. The temperature thingy for a baby should be taken seriously.

zaynie:
It wasn't funny ó.
The next day, I took big big fish from my freezer (then I was selling frozen foods) from my freezer and served round with rice.
Still some people said ha..... Food didn't reach us on party day, food didn't reach us today again....
Next day, I carried turkey, big big size and cooked rice again...... Served round.
My husband was like ezz like your mumu never do.
All these peeps ate every single time you cooked




@babythug, I like attending large gatherings, I will even dance more than the celebrant but to host one.
MBA.


My Inlaws hosted one wedding about 4 years ago.... From our side, we were not even up to 50 despite being the bride's family. It was sweeeeeeeeet!
Even the souvenirs were on point.... I didn't see one single nonsense plastic bucket or handfan
When they are sharing digital bathroom scales, microwaves and DVD. When the bride refused to pack money .

Our people and "food no reach my side"na like bread and butter o At the end people are insatiable they must talk

zaynie:
Maami, that's the way to go now ó.
I remember Moyo's first birthday was a carnival, complete with all the paparazzi. I was still cooking for those that claimed they didn't eat for almost 3 days, after packing party favors for 100 kids, I still went back to the market to pack for 30 more kids that didn't collect and their parents insisted cos they liked what was in the bags.
Even after all the paps, you will see those that will say "yínmu"
So for Múná, parlour party. Only a few friends with kids Muna's age, at most a year older and family. Less cranky baby, happy mommy able to mingle without being run ragged, daddy gisting with his pals with smiles because he hasn't been overtaxed.
I made the food myself, decorated the sitting room.

Although to be honest Moyo got more gifts than Múná but ọmọ the stress was much o

Parlour and quiet parties all the way.

This got me laughing Kilode

babythug:
Just stumbled on a video of a Nigerian wedding held in santorini.... there were purportedly just 14 guests in attendance. I couldn’t help but wonder what is it about this we want an intimate gathering stuff that our people are now adopting. Is it that you don’t like or want people to share in your joy or rejoice with you? Is to save costs? I mean one chick on Instagram also said something about sharing food packs after church for her wedding ceremony..... kilon jebe?? No dancing? No sharing of souvenirs? Please this attitude isn’t African talk less of Nigerian oh

So would you have an intimate wedding or ceremony for any of your events birthdays etc ?
What do you think of the concept?

Zaynie

Let’s chat people it’s Friday

I prefer an intimate ceremony..... My brother's wedding, we were not up to 50, makes sense to me, I couldn't achieve this during mine because of the type of in-laws I have. Intimate does it for me any day.

And I met the most handsome boy I have ever seen. Am so in love and grateful to God
Please thank God and rejoice with me
I can’t believe God has made me a mother

Amazing..... I rejoice with you. Welcome handsome..... What a lovely sight to behold

nahzyla:
Thanks, why is it bad?

It has to do with babies not being able to cough out the mucous and if the cough is surpressed, then there is a chance that the mucous will stay in the lungs and then they'll end up with pneumonia. Something in this line sha

Hmmmm.

nahzyla:
Please mamas in the house, who knows of this cough medicine, Neophylin?
Is it safe for babies?
The chemist guy prescribed itand I want to know if it worked for anyones LO.

When we used palm oil and sugar it didnt work.
Baby is 8months

Cough syrup is not advisable for babies biko

tatacherie:
For my first baby period returned 18months PP
Body differs though so go get yourself covered to really avoid stories that touch

18 months? and you were not worried I am 12months PP and period never show o. I am kinda worried low key but a greater part of me is enjoying this freedom.

So we clocked a year last Tuesday and am still amazed at the awesomeness of God. It can only be God

JGracious:
It is possible to have raised temperature after the vaccination. Use pcm and if it persists,please see a doctor.

Cheers

Thanks mama, getting better now

ruqoyah26:
same here and they have removed referees recommendations letter from the upload. What are we going to do because I have deleted and refilled the referees data?

Same here. I pray it's resolved soon

Mamas that have taken chicken pus vaccination for their baby at some time, can baby develop temperature a day after the immunization? My baby took his on Thurs, but he started having temp Fri evening. He eats and sleeps well tho. Am confused

missyojo:
Just chill they would surely get it. Same thing happened to me also, it took my referee a week or more before they got the mail from school.

Alright. Thanks for the encouragement

slyshiru:
The issue has been resolved, sorry about my earlier post. U can delete and re-enter ur referees details. The links will be sent to them...

abiodunalasa:
Delete their details and reinput it back. Make sure the Emails are in small case.
Good luck.

Thanks. I have but they haven't gotten it yet
