@merrymum, God bless you for this info. But I don't know how long it'll take for them to process it. I intend leaving on Sunday before, but baby's US PP is not even ready. Applied over 4weeks ago, (Expedited), only to receive a letter that babys name is printed, sign...blablabla, in a nut shell, we sha re-fill the form and sent it back (expedited too O), and we're still waiting. So I'll just shift my ticket and Wait for the Naija PP stuff.(Additional expenses). It is well.

@All, pls for mamas that uses Sebamed products on LO, did you get from US? If yes, pls kindly tell me the stores, so I can get for lo. They seems not to know what it is here. Or if there's any other lotion like it (Tested and Trusted) pls help. My baby is kinda breaking out, and Pediatrician said I should get Cetaphil, but not helping. Pls TIA

Am fully here with you sir, ALL THIS MUST STOP. We go/bank with other countries and see the way thy treat their customers. If CBN /GTB themselves do not take this up, then I fear the future of this country. And for those saying it won't come alive, let me tell you "you're a real joker"! It's ppl like you that suffers and smiles...and should I say we do not need your opinion on this issue? Was charged an extra 30k plus on withdrawal, and like some for buying stuff online, but I know of some ppl charged over 800k! So bros/sis, kindly keep your opinion to yourselves. AS I DEY SO ENH!

We can copy Mastercard and GTB in the petition and hope and pray that there were loads of people affected because it's people's support and endorsement that can actually make this petition successful. Please anyone else who was affected can you indicate your interest and let's decide how to move forward. Even if you weren't (I wasn't ) we know where the shoes are pinching us right now with all this forex drama. We shouldn't take it lying down.

Na wah with Houston POE O. That time I was insisting on not using the POE, hubby was asking if the winches in my Village are there waiting for me, So I told him ALL THE WINCHES AND WIZARD IN AMERICA DIVIDED THEMSELVES TO BOTH HOUSTON AND CHICAGO. grin Even my hubby that was not Preggy was scrutinized wen he came in, he said the CBP officer was so angry at him for saying his wife just delivered and he's here to see both mother and child. He picked on him seriously. My advice is, pls avoid it as much as you can. Even if you have the cash, don't forget even the VO will tell you that they're the ones that can guarantee your entry, so they know you're at their mercy. Imagine delaying a Preggy mama & FAMILY SEF for over 4hrsshocked hmm.

In other news, JPS is showing me shege o. After paying for OB- Pack, I received a bill of about 150 $ they said its for the paediatrician certifying my baby for Discharge. So when I called to pay, they said there's another 144$ coming, (Baby's 3rd day visit to the pediatrician). Now 2wks appointment which is tomorrow will also be $ 146.48. And will also pay for baby at the 6wks appointment too. Pls am so confused o, cos am still expecting bill from Lab also.

Pls mamas, that used JPS, how una do am. Abeg, torchlight matter for me o

It's going to clear with time dear ( can't remember the medical term for it). My baby had the same issue, we are 6 months now and it has cleared completely. Pele, I know how frustrating it can be.
It might also be due to low humidity. See if you can get a humidifier in the room plus if you use any of those small heaters in your room you might want to turn it off.
When did you notice the congestion?

It's been about 3days now

omote1:



my ds has refused to suck and he latches on properly. This guy jst isn't interested. I initialy thought he hated my boobs lol, he wont even take the bottle. was adviced to find a strategy and be sure he's eating, so we use the cup of his feeding bottle and he drinks his milk like water. i was told the breast isnt as fast as he would like it. so i am constantly expressing(which isn't funny) and we combine the bm with formula, he will be 2months on sunday and the boy can eat. i still put him to breast thou and once in a while he sucks and does so with so much force you'll know he kinda wants the milk out fast. lol

This is the exact thing she does, she's just 2wks2days today, and I don't know how long I'll continue doing this. It's not funny at all. She prefer the fast route. I pray she come around on time.

Thanks everyone for welcoming me. I have issues with latching, lo will prefer to suck on bottles to breast. So I only pump to feed him. Anytime I tried placing her on she cries so much that I feel so bad.
Pls what should I do? And could it be tongue tie like ppl say?? I saw something like it, but my doc says since it doesn't interfere with crying and feeding that I should let her be. I don't know what to do. cry

BS

Mild contractions started on Wednesday, and you know my mucous plug started falling out at 35weeks (without blood though). Didn't even want labour to start at all, cos I was just 37+2. Dont want premature. So on Thursday, felt relieved except occasional cramps, till Friday wen I couldn't sleep throughout. By 5am, picked my already packed bag and straight to the Hosp. Immediately I got down at the entrance like this, my water gushed, thank God I had a pad on, it'll have been an adult peeing on her body. The fluid hot fa!

Fast forward to checking, said I was only 3cm dilated..omo vex enter me straight, say with this kain pain...just 3 hian!! I was sha admitted around 7am. so straight to 2pm, was told I was just nearing 4cm, suo shocked I almost started drama O. Then I remembered the ppl with me wey we don follow make mouth well well, say na Hebrew women thing grin. So I was left alone till around 7pm, cos dem give one pain relief drug so I was calm and slept off. grin see effizy labour. I just heard a bang on my back at around 7:45pm like the bamboo in my back got damaged, then stood up and started calling nurse to com remove this drip. (Yea they augment my labour). I want to shit, poo, bath walk all at the same time grin she said I should calm down that all will soon be over.
So the doctor came to check me, I was already standing on the bed (yes standing and jumping sef grin. So she begged me to sit lie down so she could check, alas!! I was 9cm!!!: shocked if them know dey for no tell me, na so shout com dey intence, I WANT TO POOOOOOO!!! Why are you ppl like this!!!! Yeehhh?!! But I didn't shout too much O. So they all came and with about 4-6pushes, she made her grand Entry with no much shouting....you see effizy so!??

After about 30 min, I noticed I was bleeding a lot, the nurse said she'll put catether to empty my bladder, làter retains it. Still, blood was gushing out like tap. Anytime she presses me, big clot will come out. Ha, so I said am not comfortable cos they already want to transfer me to the wrd.. So a doctor came and inserted her hand into my uterus, guess what,?? I have LOBES OF PLACENTA DETACHED IN THERE, SO CERVIX WAS OPENED AND FLOODING WITH BLOOD. FELT REALLY DIZZY AND WAS ALMOST PASSING OUT. Clots and clots and clots was evacuated. So withing another 15min, I ran into rigor...cold started from my feet to my brain and I couldn't remember anything again. Was just looking at my lo an speaking I'm tongues. Heart rate, pulse, respiration, Temp all was extreme. But to the glory of God after about 3-4hrs, God took charge, I was free but lost lots of blood. In all sha, my ppl, na GODWIN O!

@Emeldamichael....you sure need that wheelchair sis. I flew Lufthansa to Dallas. When you get to Frankfurt, they don't really have much wheelchair service, so you're treated special to a place and the bus is brought to pick you. While every other persons WALK to their gates. You'll only be doing yourself and children the favour of freezing out in that cold weather. It was even raining when we landed that day.

So pls, call their office and book. We had to go there in person to book for it specifically, and the lady said if am asked why, I should tell them ITS NEEDED FOR LONG DISTANCE WALK. so pls, nobody is suspecting you O.
