Liftedhands:
Why will you refuse to be ADMITTED where proper care will be given to you to avoid malaria complications and come online to question the drugs you were given? I hope you are not self medicating o? Malaria causes serious harm to unborn babies so please don't joke with it.


However it's a classB drug so it's safe.

. Abeg help me ask her ooo, that was how i refused to be admitted years back and I regret it till today.

yedidiah:
Pray hard then, because I heard it is very common among pregnant women.

. That's a lie. Not all pregnant women.

gandyluv:
tankx dear
the thing is I was staying with DH at Bayelsa but I'll b giving birth at Abj.i left bayelsa wen I was already 36 weeks gone.i went to hospital to register again,but d did not accept me.so,i ended up registering at a private hospital.Dh said I wunt give birth in a private hospital becos we just lost a family friend n her baby in a private hospital while giving birth..a friend told me I can go to any of d general hospital n give birth but I'll b charged for unbooked delivery.just wnted to confirm if dats true

. Its true, hospitals charge extra if u didnt register with them. I dont know why its like that

mitchyy:
Yes, it is safe. It has caffeine but a very very low caffeine content, that is safe for consumption. But limit your intake to one a day, just to be safer.

Confirm from your doc though, just incase your system should not accomdate it.

. Ok, thanks very plenty. I have two packets at home and it will expire this year, so i dont want it to waste just like that

Ada243:
I used it but I don't know if its safe. no two bodies are d same. what is good for me might not be safe for someone else.

@realdentist, the scan didn't show any fibroid just that the baby is very active. Though, during my two previous pregnancies i do have implantation bleeding but during the last one years back, i bled at 7 months and lost the baby. This present one i didn't experience any implantation bleeding. That's why am confused.

@realdentist, the scan didn't show any fibroid just that the baby is very active.

Good evening sabi mamas, pls what causes spotting/pink discharge? I do experience it once a while, went to my gynae yesterday to complain. Run a test and scan. Scan read 12 wks and test says malaria. Gynae gave me malaria and routine drugs. This morning it started again. Pls, hv anyone experience such and what is the solution? Pls epp me

congrats to all d mamas that have offloaded their los and God guidance and strength to the remaining september moms. @ kingdaughter, congrat to ur double blessings.

olamitie:
Team march still battling with MS.
Please any one on progesterone injection? Does it increase the appetite? The way i get hungry is really scary, have not experienced this before, even when i eat to my fill im hungry in the next 2hrs im literally always hungry

teamie, i didn't experience any ms oooo but the hunger thing is something else, if I wake up and there's no food na war ooo. I forgot to mention, now i hate any thing fried, that have sugar, even snacks. I just pray that by the end of this first trimester everything will be fine. The Lord is our strength

My Birth Story.

In the evening of Thursday, 11 August I notice traces of blood on the tissue after every urine.
I run to the thread to ask, mamas Liftedhands, Fortius and Callola reply and say it's early labour. GHEN GHEN!

Friday, 12 August I go first to the market to get nursing bras and then to work, what I feel is menstral like cramps.
At the end of the day, I go to bed at about 9pm, past 9.
At past 10pm to 11, menstrual like cramps gets intense. Keeps waking me.
It relieves me, I sleep back, it comes back again. On and off. Pain steadily increases.
At past 2am my groanings finally wakes DH, who suggests we head to the hospital.
"At midnight??! I'm not going, what if it is false labour? Everyone would make fun of me, first timer things", he keeps insisting until I finally agree to leave the house when it 4:30am.

Meanwhile I tell DH to put please put on the generator, I tidy my cloths, have my bathe and then watched TV for a bit.
At a few minutes to 5am, we leave home.

HOSPITAL
Arrive hospital at 5:05am.
Nurse does VE, says I'm 3cm dilated (I was hoping I'd be like 9/10 cm already, I was disappointed).
Doctor comes in, says I'm not acting like I'm in labor and I can't possibly be 3cm goes, he does VE again and I'm now 5cm gone (he doesn't tell me this)
I then ask if they are sure my baby would arrive that day, if not they should let me go back home. And they are like "you are in labour now, your baby is definitely arriving today" . OKAY!

I remain in the labour room with DH, pain continues to progress. And I'm like, "SO THIS IS LABOUR!"
At past 10am doctor comes in, ruptures membrane. The act in itself, painless but afterwards... O'boy and I thought I was in labour ealier!!
I'm then told "if you feel like pooing or pushing let us know". DH kept asking me over and over if I was feeling either. Nah.
Meanwhile I had no idea what "push" feeling was like. Why would I feel like pushing? The baby has been in my tummy since nah.
All this time, even with the strongest of contractions I wasn't shouting or screaming, I'd open my mouth like in a scream but no sounds. I kept saying "oko mi", "temi", "I can't do this", and DH would always answer back "you can do it". Lol. Oya na, coman do it for me!

So eventually I felt the "to push" feeling, "I want to push o, I want to push o".

DELIVERY ROOM
With every ANC I had asked my doctor if DH could stay with me, he said no problem, and then he says differently now. Ehen, my husband whose hands I've been holding since 5am (I had squeezed the life out of both hands. It's either I was squeezing his hands or begging him to squeeze my hands tight. Tighter! Tighter!) and so in my pains I'd to insist on DH staying with me.

I had no idea how to push. Doctor explained.
The push started, all that was coming out was poo. Lol.
I can't stop wondering now if DH is still sexually attracted to me after all he must have seen.
First thing he askes when he's eventually able to talk to me is "are you sure we are having more children?"
Eventually I got it right but I was exhausted. At this point, I'm already thinking "cut the crap, this baby can't come out of a vagina, I'm thinking of the other openings in my body, mouth, ears, what are the options of the doctor trying to birth the baby from one of these. Or should I ask for CS now? I was exhausted! I wasn't sure all the pain was worth it anymore. I just wanted it to be over.
And then the doctor says he can see the baby's head, askes DH if he could see it too.
That's perhaps what I needed. Hope. And then there were two more pushes!!

So at 40 weeks 5 days, at exactly 12:47pm on the 13th of August, 2016 my boss boyfriend, ObabiOlorunkosi arrives weighing 3.35kg.
Hallelujah!!!

ADDENDUM
The relief!!!!!! Inexplicable. Indescribable.

I had an episiotomy however, the doctor tried to hide the cut under a strong contraction but taaah! I felt it clear and sharp.
After my son was birthed and the site had to be stitched, ehen! that's when I shouted down the roof. That's when the whole hospital must have known someone was in labour. The pain is not here! I wasn't prepared for it.
I had readied my mind for labour pain but not epi or stitch back pains, cause I had prayed and prayed to God, no tears no epi (however God's ways are not my ways)

Motherhood hasn't been easy. It's taken me 12 days to come back with my BS.
Meanwhile house, my baby has refused to latch on to breasts even though I have begun to lactate. So we are on BMS, expressing breastmilk, cup and spoon. I need help and advice. Thank you.

So dear mamas, that is how I spent my 13th August 2016!

Cc: Capo BritneyStacy, BS submitted at last.

congrats to your lo. My dear it's not easy oooo. Once the baby is out the pains are forgotten. Regards to dh

Hmmmmm congrats to all the new mama's and their los. We still have a long way to go. ( let me go back to my silent mood till 2017)

MumZ:
Tanks 2 almighty Allah, my Prince arrived @ 11am dis mrn, weighing 3.2kg. May God grant all d remaining pushing mamas safe n easy delivery. #Team August, team like no oda.

congratulations oooooooooo

kotias003:
Hello mamas,
Please is spotting an early labour sign or is it that I missed the "bloody show" OR bloody show is on the way?
The spotting isn't "mucous-ish" at all, so it's not the show right?
Please can mamas here explain what's happening. Please help a FTM out.
I'm 40 weeks and 5 days today.

Cc: mama zaynie, omojudy, realdentist, liftedhands (i hope I haven't murdered any monikers) and other sabi mamas.

i dont know but during my first, there was no spotting but i spot during my second (though it was preterm) but i wil advice u to go to d hospital. Safe delivery

let me just spread my mat and mosquito net here first. Brb

congrats. mine is on the way.

Ogoja in Cross River State takes the lead. No light

good morning doctors, I have been ttc for 3 years now. I have a regular period but whenever i pressed my breast milk comes out. though, i have been pregnant twice. i did test on prolactin and my doc told me that its normal on the high side. ( don't understand what that means) though he placed me on bromocriptine. tomorrow being 18 am to go for hsg test he gave me misoprostol to take. my question now is what is the success rate because most of the people i asked did not mention misoprostol.

hmmmmmmmmmmmm, i smell lies

i dont wear mine, but i have seen alot of married men wearing wedding ring. Its a choice. Being married is not on the ring but in the heart
