Sorry for being away for a while now was having work issues
Team October congratulations to my teammates that has delivered
I delivered on 4/10/18
Birth story alert
I was at work seeing a patient when I felt watery down .As I stood up my water ruptured but the doctor to relieve me was yet to come so I continued seeing patients since I wasn’t having any labor pains.then after the last patient I went to the labor ward was checked and told I was 3cmdilated yet no pain
My medical director came examined me said same and oxytocin was started 5iu it finished no pain
My blood pressure shot up to 190/110mmhg
Have been on management for PIH but this reading was scary but no protein in my urine
Our OBGYN adviced on CS due to the fact that the baby is precious and we don’t know the baby can tolerate further augumentation
I have suffered infertility and went through help to conceive so I consented
Elective CS was done at 11:30pm on 4/10/18
And I met the most handsome boy I have ever seen. Am so in love and grateful to God
Please thank God and rejoice with me
I can’t believe God has made me a mother

Can you please tell us more about PROM causes and symptoms maybe.

Also, does uterine fibroids interfere with pregnancy or childbirth.

Thanks in anticipation.
PROM causes includes
Any cause of uterine infection ie chorioamnionitis implicated organisms includes group b strep and E.coli especially
Any cause of uterine over distention like multiple gestation,polyhydramnios
Trauma to the abdomen like assault, car accident
Symptoms include leaking fluid from the vagina or gush of fluid, there could be abdominal pain, fever, foul smelling vagina discharge
The main management depends on gestation or if infection sets in , in which case immediate delivery is advocated
If gestation is >34 weeks delivery is encouraged to avoid infection after giving steroids to help in lung maturation
If age of viability has been attained in Nigeria it is 28weeks and no fever, we try to buy time so as to allow pregnancy to be up to 32–34 weeks but if earlier and there is infection immediate delivery is recommended
Diagnosis is vagina pool of fluid in sterile speculum examination, ultrasound ie oligohydramnios, vagina fluid showing ferning or nitrazine paper turning blue
Main stay of treatment is bed rest , antibiotics and corticosteroid also tocolytics to stop contraction if no fever can also be given

For fibroid May interfere with pregnancy and child birth depending on size and location
It can increase the risk of miscarriage, preterm birth and even cause malpresentation
In pregnancy it could cause pain, bleeding and if it’s located at the lower segment of the uterus it can cause obstructed labour leading to CS . It can also cause post partum haemorrhage
But a lot of women with fibroid won’t have any problem and go on to have healthy pregnancy and delivery

Hi everyone, please my baby is just a month old and his poo is dark in colour and by dark I mean black nam so worried... Does anyone knows what might b causing that
Babies have meconium first Friday days of life and will later transition to yellow
Was it yellow and later became dark colored
Dark color stool has a lot of differentials especially if stool has changed from meconium to yellow
You may need to see a paediatrician
There could be GI bleeding or it may be nothing but it’s always good to be checked

iamsuskay:
please!! at what week can gender be detect in pregnancy.. what is d different between pre-anatal and post-anatal
Gender/ anomaly scan is usually between 18 to 20 weeks
But from 18 weeks gender is prominent
Prenatal is before birth
Postnatal is after birth

whyworryPH:
Welcome doc. We are glad to have you in our midst. I also had PPROM at 25 weeks plus. That was last year. They suspect infection since I had serious one during pregnancy last year.
For this pregnancy, I was sent for vaginally scan to check os diameter and cervix length in my 13th week to know whether I should go for cerclage. The result showed that my cervix was completely closed and cervix length 4.9
I am currently 17 weeks plus and everything is going on fine all thanks to God.
I'm not on any medication apart from pregnacare original. Hope I'm on the right track?
One of our mothers here
also had PPROM last year and lost the baby, but this year, she put to bed without cerclage. She also said hers was due to infection.
God is the one in charge of this my pregnancy, I tell you. He has really made it easy for me.
I really think you should be on cyclogest at
least it won’t hurt you in any way
And for cervical length measurement is not a one off measurement
You need to do it at least every 2 months
I was also told it was infection that caused the membrane rupture. But in medicine you can never be so sure especially with respect to prom
I decided to be proactive
My cervical length was 4.6 before my cerclage so in essence I really didn’t need it but I know it shortens as the pregnancy progresses so I decided to get one coupled with the fact that it was free. The OBGYN in my facility adviced me to do it and also to be on progesterone
For you to make a diagnosis of prom you must have had 3 second trimester miscarriages
I didn’t want to lose another baby to make that diagnosis
I know it’s God that makes it possible for a woman to carry to term
I just want to do my best and leavew the rest to God
And you know you shouldn’t compare yourself to the next person. Your case and hers and even mine could be different
I really think you should be on cyclogest it won’t hurt and it help to maintain the integrity of the cervix

Plz I have a question to ask our medical doctors in the house.am a ftm and 35 weeks. my baby keeps flipping and changing positions and am worried coz d baby prefers d transverse or oblique lie. Should I b worried?
You will only worry if it’s transverse or oblique by 38 weeks ,most usually won’t turn because the liquor vol has reduced so changing position will be difficult for the baby

Hannydimples:
My hospital said if by 40 weeks and this tenant doesn't want to vacate this building, we are going to drag his bombom out by force.
In my place of practice if there is no other complication like gestational diabetes , Pregnancy induced hypertension or preeclampsia etc we usually induce 40weeks + 10days maximum
Most usually go into labor even before the extra 10days

Hello there everyone, it seem here is an inspiring place to be. Well I am curious, is it heathy for a mother to have sex during pregnancy?
[quote author=dvae9ja
It’s really not a problem to have sex during pregnancy unless there is a problem like bleeding in pregnancy or when you are at risk of prom so you will be adviced to observe pelvic rest

Liliesbud2, sorry for the loss
Caesarian myomectomy is a well planned elective procedure. With adequate provision of blood. I dont think a good obstetrician will try this procedure during a Caesarean section
Myomectomy is not an emergency.
Most people don’t even know the have fibroid. It’s usually an incidental finding during pregnancy when a routine scan is done early in pregnancy or if it causes red degeneration( pain in pregnancy)and a scan is done to know cause of pain
Only symptomatic fibroid or submucous fibroid that can cause menorrhagia , early miscarriages or infertility can be adviced to remove
