Rhayne: Congratulations! Most clinics recommend one to be 12weeks pregnant before registering for antenatal. However, you can continue with the use of folic acid. 1 Like |

Hi everyone... Are all those painful massages given to babies during bath really necessary? The whites don't do this and they turn out fine. Just thought to ask. |

Birth Story! Birth Story!! Birth Story!!! The gist is finally here o... It started when I had to resume on Monday 7th Feb to a new department at work after enjoying 32 working days compulsory annual leave. Ha! I knew my EDD was close (13th Feb), and seeing that I wanted to deliver where my husband is based, I decided to drop my maternity leave letter immediately. The Head at my new office who is a mother of two tried to persuade me to stay till the following week before going, but I kept insisting sha. Lol. Even some female colleagues who thought I still wasn't due because of how "not so large" my tummy looked kept advising that I just stay until labor comes before I take the leave. Lailai I no gree. I was over 39weeks gone already, and this was my first pregnancy. I finally dropped the letter on Tuesday (8th Feb). And as God would have it, it was approved for me to proceed on Wednesday. Hubby picked me up immediately, and we travelled back to his place. On Wednesday (9th Feb) was my appointment at the clinic. I woke up with menstrual-like cramps. Went to the clinic where I related it to the doctor. She suggested a membrane sweep to hasten the labor process. I agreed to it, and it was done by a nurse there. For me, it was painless. After the sweep, I started having mild contractions that came in like 25-30mims apart. Called hubby to take me home. We got food on the way as I wasn't in any mood to cook. On getting home, I started cleaning the house and washing clothes. Lol. Everywhere had to be clean if my baby is going to be out this soon. Hubby called one of my cousins to come stay with me incase of anything. I laughed. We kept gisting while the contractions kept getting more frequent but mild till hubby came back from work at around 5:30pm. When I later went to pee, I saw the bloody show. I smiled coz I knew the sweep was already working, and I'll see my baby very soon. As I kept monitoring the contractions, it started coming in at 5mins apart lasting 30-35seconds. I kept expecting that my water would break, buh e no gree o... At about 9:30pm, hubby suggested we head to the hospital. I agreed. On checking me, the nurses found out I was 3cm dilated and suggested I stayed back for close monitoring. I refused o... We went back home with hubby. Honestly, I couldn't even sleep that night. Did exercises, danced, took hot tea, tried watching a movie to take away my attention sef, e no work. At 4am, I told hubby that we should go back to the hospital. We did. The nurses said I wasn't ready since I still had my wig on. They still checked and I was 6cm dilated. That was how I started strolling round the hospital to hasten the whole dilation process o. At 9am, I was 9cm dilated, and my water was yet to be broken. The contractions were not so strong. Ha! That was how the doctor instructed for me to be injected with Oxytocin. People of God, the pain I felt after that eh... I don't think I'd ever wish that for even my enemy. It was so out of this world! Strong contractions back to back. I kept wailing. Kept telling the nurses to check. They even went to their station and left me there. Until I felt the need to fart. When I screamed at them, they came rushing to check. Then another delay. They said the baby's head is yet to crown. What?! I wasn't ready for that English o... Didn't even know when I started shouting for them to take me over to the theatre for CS. They kept smiling saying "No CS for you. You are already close to having your baby." They were kind sha. The pain was too much. I wanted to push, but they kept saying I shouldn't. So, what was I supposed to do? I was crying without tears. I was grabbing everything 'grabbable'. The nurses had to stay away before the mad dog would tear their uniforms. I got tired at some point. Threw up thrice (something I'd never done before o, not even in pregnancy). To give me some hope, the nurse made me insert my hand to touch the baby's head. I think this was done after they broke my water o... I can't even remember again. But I know I felt a rush of energy to have the baby out after that. To cut the long story short, my beautiful Prince came out at exactly 12:25pm on 10th Feb, 2022 weighing 2.5kg. This was after five hard pushes with the little strength I had left. The joy I felt after hearing my baby's first cry is indescribable. At that moment, all the pain I felt just vanished. There was this fresh air entering everywhere, even though I kept bleeding. That was when I even had the time to ask the nurse her name while she delivered the placenta and stitched me up as I had tears. Got discharged the next day after close observation, to make sure I wasn't still bleeding. Sincerely, God saw me through it all. It was never by my strength, coz I know how well my strength failed me in that labor room. My faith even turned to fear at some point, but He showed me mercy. Glory to His name. For all TTC... The God that did it for me will surely come through for you. Peace. 55 Likes 2 Shares |

Godmother: Dear ma, I feel your pain and would like to encourage you to appreciate God for even the one you already have coz a lot of people are crying to God for just one. Also, be encouraged to know that the God that gave you a baby before can still do it again. All you need now is total faith in God and patience. It shall come to pass. You will come back to testify. I'll be praying for you. 17 Likes 1 Share |

kokaiye: Had the membrane sweep today. It wasn't that painful when it was done. The nurse was compassionate while doing it. I only felt a little discomfort later on, been having cramps which I assume is gradually turning to contractions, and later lost my mucus plug. Guess its working. 10 Likes |
