Be strong and be of good courage. I am optimistic that all these will pass, this is my second pregnancy, my first wasn't like this. Just take each day as it comes. Don't our work yourself lime/lemon are my new beasties can't do without them.
I pray 2nd trimester will be a huge relief for us.

Amen, 2nd trimester will be easy and third even easier.

Twinmommy:
Mama just finish it since it's just one week left. I also felt sick taking Pregnatone. I had to discuss with my Dr and switched to a Gummy + Folic Acid. Sometimes I still feel off on the Gummy but it's much better for me.

Lol thanks mama, I’m closing my eyes to take it so my money won’t waste because the only thing that crossed my mind while purchasing was how about people who can’t afford this damn thing I’m sure they still go ahead and have healthy babies, so why am I stressing but well bodies are different.
I’m taking a break for a few days before I begin the new one I purchased recently(I hope I’m not messed up either) but I’ll keep taking my folic acid during the hiatus, as I have 5mg Folic acid prescribed separately by my OB.
As a side rant - count down during pregnancy is the slowest! 3 days is like 3 years.

MumDiamond:
Lol... Hey mama, there's nothing wrong with Pregnacare max. I think your system isn't just accepting it. You can change to another drug if it'll help you feel better.

I've been taking mine since I found out I was pregnant, and I have never reacted to it. Luckily for me, I don't have issues with taking drugs right now. It doesn't make me feel nauseous or strange. Same thing, even in my last pregnancy.

Like I mentioned, you should take drugs that your system permits. You'll be fine

Thank you! Please how do you manage to swallow three of them at a go because it’s daunting. I’m definitely switching pills(got an alternative already), I have 6 days to go on this pack before I pack it up. I’ll take a break when I’m done with this and before I begin the new brand to ascertain it was really the pregnacare max making me sick.
Also did it change the colour of your poop?

mamsiey:
No I used JFK with two toddlers who are both citizens. The only question asked was how long are we staying for and I said 3 months. Nothing else.

Jfk is so sweet they hardly put anyone through tough time, although I know someone who was turned back in jfk(not a preggie). I’m looking forward to a sweet experience when I pass through.

Victoriouswoman:
Thanks alot everyone. My sis inlaw came this morning quarreling with me, that all men cheat and that the only mistake he made was bringing her home and also dating women around us. They said i should bear and forgive him. I don't have no parents or family members. He was begging me since on Friday,but when his sisters came he started talking with confidence saying my friends are asking me to leave the marriage. And he was bragging to them. I just went inside and cried. If my mum was around, i don't think all these would be happening. I miss my parents so much. But i have decided to gather some money and do something tangible with my life. Thanks alot for your concerns
May God bless your homes

I’m sending you e-hugs. Please work towards doing better for yourself in terms of finances and being self sufficient after your pregnancy as you can’t afford any stress right now. When you’re self sufficient things will take a drastic turn I can assure you. Not all men cheat and your husband can do better, it’s obvious your husbands sisters are shallow minded, your husband is probably the bread winner and they don’t want to get on his bad side(Happens in most families).
You don’t need this type of vibes not right now or even after the pregnancy. Focus on yourself and your child and don’t get carried away. It is well with you. Cheers!

MzCorleone:
My dear you just described me at the moment
If the food am eating is not peppery I can't stand it, metallic tasting mouth is killing me and making me spit a lot.
I can't drink ordinary water unless it is very cold or flavoured with lime.
The Lord is our strength

God is our strength o! my water is with Lemon or lime, my smoothies have to be with a dash of lime because I can’t stand anything too sweet either, my mouth is producing extra saliva these days. I really look forward to week 14/15 the week when everything gets normal . Sometimes I’m wondering who sent me message sef because pregnancy is not a walk in the park at least for me it has never been a walk in the park until the day I deliver.
I have a friend who says she enjoys her pregnancy period and like being pregnant and I find it super weird because no be me.

Thanks for stopping by
Gbagada gen hospital is close to me but I worry about climbing bike to and fro
Hubby is not in Lagos

Please don’t climb bike this period they’re rough, pregnancy is very delicate. Although some people left with no option have to climb bike but I’ll say avoid it as much as you can, since antenatal is like once a month and the hospital is close to you, then you can use ride hailing services like Bolt / Uber( a sacrifice just for that day). Personally pregnancy period is always very very delicate and stressful for me so my input may be a bit sentimental, I can even say don’t go out

WetSmoke:
BA! BA!! BA!!!

To God be all the glory, my child of destiny, miracle princess arrived this afternoon. She weighed 3.1kg.

Mother and daughter are doing fine.

If I no serve God, wetin I gain oooo.

Cappo, take note.

Congratulations , God bless and be with you and your baby

senoraaquila:
I can imagine. Personally, I don't like drugs or injection. Pregnancy period is the only time I really take drugs almost on a daily basis. E no easy. Thank God I hardly fall ill cos I can't deal.
Sorry dear.

Thank you :- I’m just beginning and I’m tired.
God help us all.

Good Evening mummies,I’m newbie
I finally got courage to type after weeks of �
This is my first time� I’m 10weeks hope not too early
I have a lot of questions on my mind
Please help me out I’m kinda new in this
Firstly, when can I start antenatal?
Can you recommend good hospital for me I’m in Lagos Ifako Axis
I don’t know my left and right in this journey �
Morning sickness throwing me off balance�
Secondly,I have been on folic acid only since I discovered I’m pregnant...please which way forward

If you don’t mind a government hospital then you can use Gbagada general hospital and if you mind going far I’m a fan of Lagos island maternity, I know a few good hands that work in GBGH.
I know hospitals will say 12 weeks and even my present hospital says 10-12 weeks before they book me for antenatal but I should keep coming to see the OB every 2 weeks because we have pending matters.

senoraaquila:
During my first pregnancy, I took just folic acid and ferrous.
For this one, it's same folic and ferrous. Although I've not been consistent in taking the ferrous.

Me & Tabs inconsistency are like 5&6 I hate taking tablets, I don’t know who sent me to buy this pregnacare max and I have one week to go before the pack is exhausted, I definitely feel so sick taking these tablets but I want to know if it makes other people sick so I can have a perfect excuse to dump it. I’m rolling my eyes at the price sef!

Hamzashaf99:
I've always had serious and prolonged MS with both pregnancies, so even taking folic acid was a task I hated. But I can remember craving milk and eggs, fish and health combinations a lot which helped.

There's no need to over stress yourself over prenatal vitamins as far as you eat healthy ND nutritious meals. Im not saying not to take it, but go for what you baby and body can tolerate.

If it's just simple ferrous sulphate and folic acid your body wants, don't force it to accept other things.
Go with your normal pregna care and eat well.

Thank you, My doctor thinks I should even dump the prenatals for now and face the 5mg folic acid and one white medication he gave me for a 7 days course last week.
I wish I was craving all the good things you craved at least e for better . I can’t even stand eggs right now or anything that doesn’t contain serious pepper, although I never vomit throughout my pregnancies but I always feel very sick (headache, food aversions for some weeks, metallic mouth taste , feeling bloated & very tired, can’t stand to even shower etc) looking forward to 14 weeks when I usually get better. They always say no two pregnancies are the same but it seems I get the exact same symptoms all the time and I wonder why.
I can’t stand perfumes & body sprays either So I use lime as my deodorant and it seems this pregnancy is going to be a long one because it didn’t take me by surprise meaning I started counting from day 001.

enque:
My dear, u can use pregnacare original which is just 1 tab, eat good food and still have a healthy baby
With my 1st pregnancy, i insisted on max n i recall taking it was a huge task for me cos it always made me nauseous. I eventually gave up on it the day it made me vomit all my food. I just jejely switched to another prenatal med for d duration of d pregnancy n we all turned out fine.

With this pregnancy, I stuck to pregcare original and didn't even bother going near max abeg. Can't coman kee myself on top swallowing 3 tabs when to swallow 1 gan sef na work.
Las las baby n I ll b alryt as long as I eat nutritious meals.

Thank you. I won’t say I’m eating great right now because this one hook my mouth. This is my first time being a prenatal faithful.
First pregnancy, I think I took my prenatals once in two weeks, I was never faithful with the thing, second I took them individually and it made me miss them a lot because they’ll say take this one in the morning take this one in the night.
I’ve seen my OB once since I began this pregnancy due to the scare I had last week and he thinks ordinary pregnacare is great and that’s what the hospital prescribes because swallowing two tabs is a lot for most women, I have another tablet I purchased already - one a day advanced (1 tablet 1 soft gel), I don’t want to waste my 16k I used for this pregnacare so I’ll struggle to swallow it for the remaining few days.
My concern is I just want to be sure it doesn’t make one so sick, because if it does I won’t hesitate to dump it.

Good evening everyone. Please I need reviews of pregna care max and if it makes one sick because I don’t understand the way I feel these days.
I intend switching to one a day after this pregnacare Max is exhausted as I can’t bear swallowing three big tablets, thing is honestly too much for me but I’m trying so I don’t miss a day.
Last week I had an episode of a threatened miscarriage/abortion and since then I’ve been on compulsory bed rest, staying at home till I birth hopefully and I’m not having fun either.

Lagbaja88:

Good morning everyone, thanks for keeping this thread going. Please does renewal still take the standard 15 days especially in these times of Covid? Mine has always taken 15 calendar days from inception and I just submitted for renewal on Monday and I want to be sure covid won’t delay my travel plans. Thank you

Dennyjuff:
People can forget. Haba. It’s very possible.

I was just wondering I wouldn’t forget such but it’s okay to forget.

MissMa01:

He told me it will take Dem 3 months and that i will go to the embassy for biometrics.

You see this thread Ehn it’s a diy thread and this thread has helped a lot of people go to Canada via the EE process. If you read this thread then you can take everything you learn to the bank because you’ll never regret it. Everyone does it themselves here and seek guidance & clarification, thankfully people are always ready to help. If you really want to go to Canada and you don’t want to be scammed just DIY.
All the best!

tourist visa allows you to work Wild dreams. Canada tourist visa is one of the hardest visa to get in this world. The picture below is what you will get. Fake visa

Very thorough and hard o, I once told someone did and they said it’s the easiest , so I argue no more I no get strength to dey argue with person whey no get international passport talk-less of knowing how visa application works.

Oly23:
Good day!! Please did you write in that venue?! I want to know if they use headphones for the listening test!! I am writing next month and don't want any surprises that day as I have been practicing using headphones.

Yes they give headphones and they’ll do a sound check several times before starting

hajimuktar:
Quickly submit a webform stating you sincerely forgot to mention the visa denial.

I’m just wondering how people forget visa denials or they felt they could do without disclosing it and then they hear they can be banned for misrepresentation. This is just me thinking aloud

Canadaishome I believe this your gist about Mod staffs being comprised, it is very very very apparent.
But I don’t think they’ll ban Naija, a few years ago when Canada found out some Indians entered with fake Ielts they simply removed them from Canada, I think the pain of getting removed after entering Canada is even worse.

Let’s be using google search for some simple questions please. Google search no go kill, bringing here for clarification is better.

Good evening house....


Please as anyone successfully evaluated BSc or Msc certificate from any Benin republic university??

Thanks

Use the wes degree equivalency tool on their website , there’s also a list of schools they work with and other commentaries in the table on the wes website.

Adeabike:
Please has any lawyer used CES recently?? I'm tired of waiting for IQAS, I have not been able to submit my application for months now due to daily limit.

You’ll need to have your payment method handy not someone helping you pay, open the tab on multiple devices and neon the website before 3.15 MST(Alberta time). All the best

Dennyjuff:
Hello guys, I have checked the search bar and couldn’t find a straight forward answer to my question.

When evaluating a law-degree with WES, what certificates should be sent in other to get “two or more” degree equivalence . I know IQAS gives a masters degree equivalence but from my findings, their processing timeline is too long and it’s just too much wahala to pay.
So I don’t mind using WES.
Please help. Asking for a friend.

Add law school BL To LLB , but it’s much more profitable to ignore the stress and use IQAS.

babestell:
You axtually told the VO that you were going to give birth and they granted you visa just like that?

based on everything we have read and experienced. that is highly doubtful.

On the day of my interview the pregnant woman I sighted was denied alongside her husband (I heard the v.o ask her why USA and if she researched other countries, she answered no) , the other is a very big person stature Wise and wore big ankara gown so it wasn’t noticeable she was granted her renewal.

rozeybid:
Pls any information on Houston North West Medical center or Methodist hospital as regards bill and Doctor .

Also share if their is other good hospital aside OAKBEND in Houston Tx .

Thanks

I contacted Methodist Medical centre area(because that’s close to where I’ll be staying) , my friend helped, they quoted about $22k for CS cash pay and they said this is after discount. However there are other branches of Methodist and their prices vary , I’ve decided on memorial hermann for now and when I land and waka the area i May find something else.
