Nor tempt me bros. For you, YINKS89, tsharp and a some others I'll probably keep writing. But had to kill off my favorite character to make sure I don't come back. The story had become my life. Even when I wasn't writing it I was writing it. Will do many more in my life time but 225 Katakata Street will always have a special place.



Well done Centino! This story is one of the best I read since Sophocles. The ending is perfection. Mr Cosmas could not have been a normal human. He seemed to be operating on a higher plane. Always the voice of reason. More like an angel that came to offer guidance and borrowed a human form to do so. Thanks so much Centino. More ink to your pen!

Bs!! Bs!!Bs!!
The summary of our birth story is...Gracified !
Pregnancy journey was quite eventful. My mouth was constantly salivating, couldn't keep food down in the 1st trimester,so i fed majorly on fruits(ah! water melon,mango,cucumber and garden egg came to the rescue). To control saliva when at work or in public,I had olive fruit in my mouth until it stopped working for me. But through it all, I enjoyed good health.
Did I mention I could not stand smells?(Good smell).This lasted till after delivery self.
Fast forward to 35 weeks, started having off and on contractions and I was happy,thinking it's a sign that baby wants to come early unlike my previous pregnancy that lasted for 41weeks and few days. But I guess my mind was playing on me.
Went for antenatal on the 24th of October and after I was attended to, the matron said she would advice I do a membrane sweep to force start labour. According to her the scan I did at 36 weeks shows that baby is already 3.6kg, and I am now 39 weeks(three weeks after scan,baby would have gained more weight) + my first baby weighed 3.9kg so there is every possibility that this baby will also be big or even bigger. ( The shalaye is sha too much). So immediately she met with the Dr...she explained her reasons for her decision to the Dr and the both saw reasons. Who are my to say no! Besides the idea of putting to birth soonest made so much sense cause I was already tired.
Membrane sweep was done around 9:30 am that same day. I was asked to go home and return for observation in 4hrs. By the time I returned to the hospital around 1:30pm.I was 3cm gone already. I thought it was good progress. The midwife sha did another membrane sweep again and wanted to admit me since the progress is fast but I declined.So was told to return in another 4hrs if contractions is bearable. When I got to the hospital around 6pm, I was told I was still at 3cm and this could even be false and just be an opening as a result of hand entry for the sweep.( At this point I was not finding the back and forth drama funny.I was having contractions and the intensity was on an increase yet you are telling me you are not sure what I am feeling is genuine. At this point,the asked that if labour does not progress in the cause of the night,I should do a biophysical scan and bring the result to the hospital the following day. The outcome of the result will determine if the can induce me or will do a Ceserean section to bring baby out.
When I returned home that night,the discomfort was on a high,so I decided to walk around. Did this for more than 2hours and finally went to bed. At a point, it seemed the whole contractions buhaha stopped and I was getting worried already. At about 4 am in the morning, contractions returned in full force. Was having 2 contractions in 5 minutes, membrane ruptured after the 1st four contractions, immediately I saw mucus plug. I knew we needed to be on our way to the hospital. Yet, I didn't want to get there too early(I felt I have had enough varginal examinations already). When we finally arrived the hospital around 4:30 am, I was told I was 7cm dilated. The speed at which the were attending to me,I thought baby would be out in less than 10 minutes but that was not the case.
When I finally got to 10 cm,I was told that my lip was yet to give way,so I should hold on and try as much as possible not to push. My dear,this was the hardest part, because the pain was almost unbearable. I was at this point for almost 15 minutes.
Finally at 6:12am, our bundle of joy came forth, in a melodious tune and at that moment I forgot the whole pain I was feeling or had felt. Placenta followed 8 minutes later. Grace started it,Grace sustained it and Grace completes it!
Wishing every preggy on this group safe and easy delivery. Cappo Sunbestie, bs submitted!


Congratulations Mama! All Glory to God!

Thank you. I am glad the story is helpful and uplifting for you. All the nausea and other things you feel will subside gradually, it's all part of the process. You will testify at the end of it by God's grace.



Amen and Amen! I'm still going through the nausea and cramps but not much like before. The first trimester has really no remedy. Thank you very much for reaching out to me. Also I'm so glad I found this trend.

BA/BS!!!

Sorry for the late BS, there's been so much to do with little time.

First trimester:
I took in in January. I was preparing for Sunday church service one morning and I noticed I couldn't stand for long. I was breathless and I had to sit down after standing for some minutes. That's when I suspected I had taken in and I did a test to confirm. So, the first trimester was full of morning sickness. I have heard a lot of people say that second pregnancy is usually less stressful than the first and I thought it would be like that, but it wasn't. I vomited a lot. I could barely eat what I prepared myself and my level of tiredness was unimaginable. Nothing helped my morning sickness. I tried everything, even native chalk and bitter cola. The nausea was horrible.

Second trimester:
Second trimester came with severe pelvis pain, walking around was tedious. I was tired constantly. I had cravings and mood swings, and eating anything I prepared myself was hard. Sleeping at night was also very difficult. Nausea stayed till the early weeks of the third trimester; still vomiting and feeling sick. I was working from home so I kept myself busy and active with work to distract myself.

Third trimester:
This is where we need to back up a bit. When I just took in for my previous pregnancy, I joined this forum. I was a silent follower. Then Someone posted about a book, "Supernatural Childbirth" and how God made her delivery easily without pain. I looked for the book, read it, and followed the prayers in it. My previous delivery story will be for another day. Fast forward to this time, I did the same thing with the prayers for an easy delivery. A few days to my due date, I started going on exercises, walking long distances. Then I ate lots of pineapples, dates, and pawpaw. On the 30th of September, I started to feel some contraction, but there was no pain. I wanted to head to the hospital but I felt the pressure wasn't strong enough. I kept eating my dates and other fruits. On the 1st of October, the pressure kept coming and going without pain. I was still gisting and doing every other thing I could do. I told my husband about the pressure and we had a prayer together for the baby to come the next day. October 2nd, 3 a.m., the pressure was a bit more. When it was daybreak, I told my husband we should head to the hospital. Getting there, the matron on duty looked at me and asked if I was in labor, I said yes. She said she would have to check to confirm. At this point, the intervals between each contraction was quite close. She checked me and I was immediately admitted. I was told I was already 8 cm. I was taken into the labour ward and they discovered my water was bulging but it hadn't broken. They broke the water and an hour later my baby was out weighing 3.7kg. A little throwback: My first baby was 4.5kg, so I was determined to have a smaller baby this time to avoid tears. I ate mostly fruits and veggies for lunch and avoided excess carbs. My husband also watched my diet closely. There were many times he refused me having some of my cravings if he knew it would be unhealthy for me. He helped me through it. In all, my delivery didn't take up to two hours. If I had stayed home an hour more, I would have delivered at home. And because I was believing God for a painless delivery, I was conscious of the possibility of that happening. God can be trusted. He did it for me.
Thanks to the house for all the support. Safe delivery to all expectant moms. God is faithful.




Congratulations dear and thank you so much. I'm in my 6 weeks. The first trimester really sucks. I'm always feeling nausea, dizziness, cramps and heartburn. Always craving malt. No food is good in my mouth. I always have cramps anytime I eat anything. I intended to be a silent follower but your story helped me and uplifted me a lot.

Politics / Re: Presidential Election: Report Any Incident Of Vote Buying Here by butterfly55(f): 1:42pm On Feb 25, 2023
INEC OFFICIALS ARE MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE TO VOTE FOR LABOR PARTY
Inec officials are now the ones that devil wants to use.
In some polling unit in Enugu, the Inec officials arrived without presidential ballot papers.
In some polling unit in Calabar and River states, the Inec officials are telling people to go home if they want to vote for labor party. In some polling unit in Anambra, they have not even arrive up till now.
In some polling unit in Kaduna, no Labor Party agent.

I thought that Nigerians should be giving equal rights to decide who they want to elect by voting.

Who are these officials and what is their intentions?

Business / How To Raise Startup Capital by butterfly55(f): 8:35pm On Feb 23, 2022
I need suggestions on how to raise capital to start a skill you've learnt.

Lots of people learn amazing skills like cooking, baking, sewing and others like forex trading, blogging, etc. How will someone that has zero capital start after learning these skills? How will the person get money to buy a domain name in terms of blogging?

And other tech like graphics designing, programming, web developing, app designing, etc. How will someone get clients to patronize his/her skill?

If the person develop an app, how will he/she pitch it to the public without ads campaign? What if there's no money to run ads? All these skills still get down to start up capital. How can capital be raised?

How will someone find job to raise the capital when job is so hard to find? Please let's discuss, I need suggestions, no negative talks please.
