Hello houseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Lord a lot has been going on here, i have been coming to see and read once in a while,but could not even spear a ,minute to write i feel horrible . It has been crazy this past 4 weeks for me, went to Emergency 3 times twice with my son and once with my Hubby. They where both sick. My son's temperature was so high it was 103.7 which can lead to seizures. All because of a cold that brought ear infections that brought cough . But i give God the glory everything is back to Normal.
Gen B i see you are holding down the house ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. This time difference makes me crazy sometimes . I don't want this thread to just disappear so thank you for everyone contributing and encouraging one another.
My ladies who have had babies how are they all doing i hope great all the people waiting on the miracles i know there is nothing that God can not do please stay strong and stay blessed.
I have to read through all i have missed so i can catch up.

Hello peopleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, ok some activity going on in here thank God grin How is everyone doing i hope good.
Please don't be discouraged, I know it is hard coming here and saying the same thing day in and day out but trust that one day your story must change.
Congratulations to the latest mama to be spearslzz may almighty God keep the baby inside you safe and sound.
Gen Buhari how far na? My peace has gone AWOL, Ada24 no show stages vanish Venuss to be continued and all others where una don go ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Yesterday I had to take my son to the emergency at 3am temperature was over 101 coughing only to find out he has a fever ,ear infection and the worst pink eye AKA APOLLO!!! As I said I just started work so he is in daycare I am sure that is where he got the pink eye from i feel like the worst mother on earth like I wanted this child so much now I have him I have let him get sick. I know have no control over what happens to him and sometimes it is good for there immune systems to fight germs this early but I am torn, I am thinking I should quit and just stay home with him.
But staying home does not pay bills, I have been lucky that my husband has taken care of all the bills etc but I want to be productive as well. God just give me strength, sad

HAPPY NEW MONTH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I can not believe it is May already God is good.
My prayer still remains the same that all who seek the fruit of the womb will MOST DEFINITELY sing new songs.
I am ok getting ready to go back to work, been at home with my little one now he will be 5 months this week, time sure flies by.He is doing fine getting stubborn like me cheesy Trying to get him to take a bottle and he does not want too.
I have done exclusive Bfeeding now I have to stop that and start pumping and give him in a bottle and he just squeezes his face like I am giving him Agbo to drink.

@ Shiloh I know you are worried because you did the surgery but don't worry just leave it in God's hands you have done your part , leave the rest to God.
If you start thinking this way this early you will just give your self stress and no one is really looking at your tummy in my opinion all this is your own anxiety that makes you think they are looking at you cheesy

Ifyemma, do not be confused thank God one is opened my cousin had a baby with one tube with out any medical intervention (ivf,iui)so it is very very possible just give your results to the doctor and hear what he says. it is well.
Health / Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by Arlington(f): 11:51am On Apr 04, 2011
GOOD MORNINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG PEOPLE. I am well and alive and i thank God Baby is doing good and he is getting big and fat, just gave him water for the first time on Friday did not go well he did not like it. he only takes BMilk and i am exhausted ohhh , 2 more months to go and no more,

@General Buhari did you sleep this weekend This one wey dem cancel election so, grin grin grin you know i like you oh but this your CPC SO, lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed I have lost faith in all of them .

@Great C how are you doing today?I am sorry about what you said the doctor told you. But is this your first consultation?Did you do any dye test for him/her to confirm your tubes are blocked? Most times if the tubes are blocked the only two options is a miracle from God which can happen and IVF.
my advice is before you spend almost half  a million naira on any doctor check his/her credentials and statistics, make sure it is a well known doctor In this Field and knows what he is doing and in his practice women who have undergone IVF have babies there to show for it.
Do not give up please, i know it is not any consolation but if you have read from page one you will see others 3 years ,4years 2 months me 5 years before i had this baby i have now so . Just keep on trying and praying and researching and your baby will come in Jesus name.


Just an observation oh but the way people are coming on to the tread talking about blocked tubes is it that these crazy doctors are just looking for cash these days that they do not even research very well to know what exactly is wrong? sometimes i wish i could convince my Doctor to do a workshop in Nigeria even for one month, But again even here you still have shady doctors God help us all.

Divab:

Hi guys,

Its been ages i came online, just battling with 1st trimester blues, Our God has done it, I wasnt expecting it, After trying for long, I handed everything to God this year. Made my new year plans not including a baby, Got very busy on a number of projects to accomplish this year, Not much focus on the ttc, God decided to hammer me, I mean really hammerrrrrrr meeeeee with his fabulous blessing. Am pregnant, I say it with tears of joy and thanksgiving, I want to encourage my friends here who are ttc, hope in Him that is soooo faithful. He does things when he wants to, when it pleases him, Am so humbled by His goodness and mercy unto me,

Arlington my sister, be strong and believe in Him, The blessing of God maketh rich and added no sorrow, He will give you joy to take it back again. I will remember you in my prayers, Remain blessed!!
Divab
how did i miss this CONGRATULATIONSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I am happy God hammeredddddddddddddddddd you with this blessing. please take good care of your self and be strong and leave the rest to God.
@ifyemma Sorry about your loss may it never occur again in Jesus name. I would say take some Panadol 30 minutes before the HSG. try not to think about it a lot .
for some people it hurts a lot for some others it is just like a very painful menstrual cramp. They just put like a small thin straw like thing into your cervix and inject dye through it to make sure your tubes are opened it is when they inject the dye that you feel the discomfort. It will be ok just try not to tense up.

Nekibull:

hi every1 TTC. Im new here and hve been told the most devastating news that i have bilateral tubal occlusion. Plz il like to know any1 and evry1 who has been told they blocked fallopian tube. I want to know my honest options. Baby dust to all.
Hello Nekibull,
I am so sorry that you where delivered such news, I don't want to sound like a doctor and keep on probing but was this the first doctor you went too? I always like second opinions just to make sure you covered your own bases.
I tried reading on this type of blockage and it was very wide, what i can gather is that it is a major blockage of the tubes.and sometimes some women are told they have this blockage because during the HSG which is painful the uterus can have spasms and it makes the tubes blocked and when it is reapted the next time they are open and clear.(why did they perform the test, was it a fertility doctor or your normal doctor ?)
As for options the only thing i can think of is IVF. if you can give more details if you don't mind i am sure someone on here can give you some advice.Good luck and God bless you.

How is everyone doing i hope good.
I am down today , I know that there are principalities and powers, but i am one who tries not to finger them out in every situation i find my self, i just leave it all to God and pay them no mind.
But 2 times in 2 weeks now 2 diffrent pastors(i don't mean hog wash ones oh they do not ask for money or say donate sow seed etc they just pray with us when ever we need extra prayers etc) have said to pray against the sudden death of my son. They do not know each other so i can not say it is planned .

I am so scared after all i have been through, for me now to lose my child will not be an option . My state of mind if it happens i can kill my self . i am a very strong person but i can not imagine taking such a blow now that i am happy after so long.
My GOD DO NOT FORSAKE ME DO NOT LET MY ENEMIES ASK WHERE IS HER GOD FIGHT MY BATTLE FOR ME.
i am bearing out my soul about how i feel so please put me in your prayers pray to God for me and my child, this is all i ask thank you.

@GenBuhari & Sogotemi,
D BD issue na serious thing well baby making too na serious issue sha. We used to target from 14 days up to the 20th day. But there was a time my wife went for test on the 11th day and the Dr. got angry with her that she should be BDing, since then we have been commencing on the 10th day but may we will start from the 9th day now but I almost stop after 22nd day. We also try to BD early morning everyday but I discovered say ‘e no easy’ especially with quantity and quality of emission, so I tend to take a day off in-between. Any idea about the wrong thing with this?

Travel / Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by Arlington(f): 6:55pm On Mar 14, 2011
It was providence hospital that we went to that they said they wanted 12k deposit .
Travel / Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedure? by Arlington(f): 6:16pm On Mar 14, 2011
My advice is come with lots of cash because things change everyday! A hospital I was told took 5 to 7 thousand on getting there with the patient who was to have her baby we where told it was 12k just for a deposit.

And especially Nigerians they want your passport details because we are known for running away after child birth. we went to about 4 to 5 hospitals and the cheapest in Maryland was going to cost about 10 to 12 grand.
Please note she must bring along her hospital records and must be in the country before she hit the 32ND week in pregnancy because after then it becomes harder to get a doctor who will see her.
There is a doctor in Holycross hospital in Maryland called Dr Mayan i think he is the only one i know who takes women even at 36 weeks as long as you pay 3,500 just for all the tests alone to be sure the patient is in good health, then you pay him 3,500 for delivery, then you pay the hospital there own fees which is like another 4 to 6 k so still looking at 12k.

Getting the passport is easy after the baby is born the hospital send in the papers so you get THE baby's SS number then you apply for his/her Birth certificate ,then passport you can expedite. The Nigerian passport maybe the difficult one because it could take up to 3 weeks. Make sure you pay every penny because i know of a woman who did Naija style escaped many years ago and today she can not enter into the USA and she is paying about 300 dollars a month now to cover the expenses she incurred years ago for 2 children that where born here a long time ago.

Olamide123 my name sake, your joy will come again believe me! I don't know how to console you I can only imagine where your mind is right now. It is ok for you to cry if you need to but please don't beat your self up about it i beg you.
I know when you are alone it is worse, but we are here for you even if we don't know you we share your pain.That was why i started this forum i had no one to talk to.
I am some who considers my self to be very strong so sharing it with another person physically was not an option, so i took this route out because i know there where people like me hurting the same way and did not wnat to say anything about it.
Yes one day you will meet your baby again and he will never go away. accept my condolence please , when ever you feel down please come on here and just talk about it even if no one replies at that moment we support you don;t bottle it up all inside. please and lastly stay of GOOGLE smiley

Hello,
I will just advice you to take some rest , when next are you going to see your doctor just to be sure all is well since you are spotting again?
I spotted during my pregnancy but my baby came out ok.
I had soreness and was very weak and i could not eat . I would advice you take folic acid and drink lots of water and as your doctor said please rest a lot.
Just curious why will he say threatened abortion when he said the pregnancy was viable?

dangiwa09:

It appears none of you has mentioned the hygiene situation in any of these places. The cooks/owners of these places will have an open pot of food on fire and will be talking, thereby spitting inside it. They pick their nose, sneeze and blow their nose by the side, supposedly away from the food pot, but they'll not think/know to wash their hands before continuing to cook. They'll go number 1 and 2, still no washing of hands and they're still cooking for you guys. Tomorrow when you get sick with something you end up in one of those 'VERY ANDVANCED AND WELL EQUIPPED' hospital in Nigeria, or better still you'll go see that your baba/pastor to sing and dance 'uroboscattter sheroborobo beroborobo uroboscatter'. Goodluck guys!

I beg leave gist jo, you can tell me you have never cooked in your own house before and you went to the toilet like 4 times say the truth oh grin
