TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!!!!!

I eventually put to bed on November 18 after a miscarriage in 2012, still birth in 2013. After ttcing for 3 years.....

After my 2012 miscarriage, i became a silent follower on this thread.

This is my birth story

. I had a few complications with the pregnancy, big baby, amniotic fluid was much, breeched baby and my placenta was very low. The only way out was CS. This advice was given to me by 3 doctors from both general and private hospitals.

I was booked for CS at 37 weeks. Baby weighed 4kg..... Still recovering though.....

I pray that God will visit those people srill searching for fruit of the womb and safe delivery to the pregnant women.

Wow, a big gigantic congratulations to you. your stroy really got tears from my eyes. am so happy for you. But u didnt tell us na prince abi princess. quickest recovery to you dear. hugs to the baby

forlahkhe:
I'm actually a silent follower in ds forum, so pls pardon me if I ddnt use ur "terms". I'm a first time mom and my LO came on 16/11/14 wch was 5days after my EDD(scan), calculating frm my LMP, my edd is 17th. I just noticed mucus plug(show) wen I used d toilet on d previous nite b4 delivery. Meanwhile, av been looking forward to ds ever since my EDD. I wld go to d toilet often to check if there's mucus or blood bt ds particular nite, I was just restless truout dt night. @ around 4am, my water broke. It wasn't a gush and a drip and I was wondering if I wee wee on my body. @daybreak, I took my bath as early as possible(feeling happy within me dt in few mins time I wl b a mother) and did some laundry(so so unusual of me to wash cloths in d morning) I did all ds based on d info av gathered dt u need to exercise to quicken labour. After d laundry, I decided to take a walk bt while I was going, water was dripping and my cloth was wet as if I wee wee on my body. I then proceded to d hospital and d dr sed I'm 2cm gone. He encouraged dt I stay back @ d hospital and continue wt my exercise bt he sed he doesn't assure me dt I wl put to bed on dt day(even though I was already anxious to c wot my baby wld luk like). All ds time I was nt feeling any pain @al. Afta 30mins, ds strong menstral cramp came and I was like....today na today. It would hold me and leave me @ a regular interval.later it was coming often dt I no fit waka again. I couldn't eat my breakfast dt DH brought for me and tea sef I no fit drink. I was just shouting calling on doctors to come and induce me. As if dt was nt enof, d cramp left and ds strong urge to sheat came. Ds pain cannot b explained ooo bt na season film. I kept shouting I want to poo poo and d nurses sed I shdnt push o cos it was nt yet time and I could tear my uterus if I did. Ds urge is soo strong dt wen it came, it pushed out my anus and made me utter so many tins, @ first it was coming and going bt later, it came and I can't even remember if it left me. While I was shouting no doctor came to me o and na so so student nurses dey show face. I was on my feet and dey would ask me to lie on my back (so painful) so they can take my baby's heartbeat. @ around 1pm I called a doctor(DH's fren) to com check ao my cm gone cos I was in serious pain.all ds time, my water kept dripping @ increased volume. When d doc came he checked me and instructed dt I shd b taken to labour room. I was given an injection on my tigh and was asked to push and wt 3pushes I had my LO who weighed 3.4kg. I had episotomy plus 2tear with cervical tear sef. I ddnt even mind because d joy is having my LO who's a boy. I was later given oxytocin drip to stop bleeding and dt is ma story ooo. D uninteresting part of it now is dt my stitches av cut( I don't kno ao manage) and av been asked to com back on ds sat to resow*sad face*

first of all, congrats. kisses to the big man that have scatter your kini ministry.
i also had epistomy plus 3 tears then, i really know how you feel. how did it cut? are u sitting on hot water or are u stressing yourself cos these are the things that mostly cause it, also do you have cough or you laughed too hard? anyway, wish you the best in the sowing.

jadareese:
Congrats to all d new moms.its truly blissful joy beholding d sight of our LOs.God be praised now and always!!.
sorry m just posting now. Bt Na now I see chance.my beautiful princess made her entrance on d 18th @ 39wks+1 weighing 3kg.
it all started with me leaking my water on d bed just as I and DH were about to get it on for d nite.funny enough I had no pains,no shows or cramps or contractions to show I was in labor. of cos DH started panicking thinking he had caused harm to our baby and whisked me off to d hospital amidst resistance thinking they will send us back home since I felt nothing besides d leaking water.at d hospital, d Dr confined it was indeed water and I was @2 cm and decided to induce me to commence d contraction and guessed I'd likely put to bed BTW 6- 8am.so was given d first dose@ 12 midnite and d water officially broke 20mins later and dat was when I started seeing stars.d pains were so intense and came every 40 - 60secinds.and wit every contraction came a dose of poo(I pity d nurse on duty sha cos enuf cleanup for her).short story Short, within an hour I was crowning and wit 2 pushes, my warm cutie was in my arms..heavenly...went thru it all wit no cuts or bruises and very swiftly too to God's glory..
though we r both fine Bt LO was severely jaundiced so we'v bn and r still receiving photo therapy to present.
so dats my story oh. may our awaiting n pushin mamas all HV a safe and swift delivery in Jesus name!!

congrats dear, all the pain vanishes once that bundle of joy arrives.hugs to the sweet princess

this government only knows how to kill its citizens with their convoy within the state capital without even stopping to check the casialty.
kogi is very unlucky and i think the people worship money so it will be difficult to get a good governor

tasceige:
You aint here so you don't know what happened, like an adage says "a place where there is no rule there is no sin" There are rules here, rules differs in NYSC camps depending on the state. E.g no fighting, no aluta continua or solidarity forever blah blah.
There is this long queue for Corpers filling the so called "book of life", this girl who was suppose to go queue up from the rare came from no where trying to claim space she hasn't secured, this dude stood on his ground that girl won't join the queue from the middle since they all have a single head , what ever it is they said to each other I don't know, the guy was awarded a dirty slap, don't get it wrong, a dirty slap, to the extent that, 4 of the long fingers were visible. You know the kinda slap that tells the surroundings to keep quiet?
The case was reported and she was asked to apologize, but she stood on the fact she cant, she won't apologize despite been found guilty of slapping someone, a co-graduate like her. Still this girl acting arrogant and rude to the officials, that means she shows no remorse, come to think of it some other got just extension of days in camp and co...
So tell me........
Though I wasn't in support of fact that she was decamped, but the camp needs a scape goat and she made her self one. No offense. All this happened between 5 days, she had the time to make amendments but she is who she is....

thanx for shedding light to this matter. the girl must be a very rude and silly girl to do that. all thia spoil brats everywhere so full of herself. it serves her right

Mzora:

mamacajah:
Hello my sweet mamas. During my recent anc visit it was noticed that the amonic fluid level was low. I did a rescan today and doctor feels it is safer for me to be induced and bring out baby today.

rama5555:
hello pushin mamas. 7wks pregnant. always hungry o.no matter wat i eat,hunga go catch me .its worse wen i jst wake up frm slwep.abeg is dis normal.my fear is if i dont eat,pickin for belle go starve but if i chop,i go too fat and baby sef go too big

dear, eat as far as you are hungry. you ae just 7 weeks, babies start adding weight from like 7 months, moreso, the size of baby is more dependent on u and dh's wight at birth (hereditary). so enjoy all the food, you don't even know if it will continue like this thru out the pregy. wish you stressfree 9 mths

oluwatomisin44,congrats dear. may joy never sieze n ur hom
