NTAChannel5:
Hi, guys.

Please I need professional advice on which to go for. All praises to God, my wife is heavily pregnant with twins. From the last scan the babies are weighing 2.7kg and 2.4kg respectively. That's quite big for babies that are 7 months. And the expected period of delivery is between April ending and early May. Which means they may still grow bigger with time.

So I'm sincerely concerned about the safety of my wife and the babies, especially my wife coz her belly is so big that people are wondering why she hasn't put to bed yet. Although, she's very healthy and seems less bothered. But I'm not finding it easy here. I want to know if Cesarian Section is a better option for delivering the babies or should we have the natural one instead.

Please, doctors, health professionals and experienced mothers in the house, let me learn from you. Thanks

Usually for twins,a lot of things come to play. Every pregnancy is different.

What usually decides for doctors assuming every other factor is relatively normal, is the presentation (position) of the leading twin (Taiye) on ultrasound scan on the last scan. If Taiye head is first, then normal labor will be tried. But, if Taiye is breech (buttocks or feet first), it's a CS straight up. This is to prevent the rare complication called locked twin syndrome which could kill especially Taiye or both.

If there are other complications like a narrower birth canal a CS is more likely. It's a case by case thing.


But one thing I will advise, is hope that doctor has experience with dealing with twin births. (I have a lot of gist when it comes to twin delivery)

This is why for any high risk pregnancy, an experienced specialist called and Obstetrician and gynaecologist is necessary. I wish you safe delivery

NTAChannel5:
Please what do you mean by the "baby's head suffered for it"?

the delay of not being born due to the mother not dilating as normal, caused trauma to the head. Any more, and the child would have died

NTAChannel5:
He's a private doc, one that would never answer a simple question over the phone. You'll need to come to the hospital, fill a form and lay your complaint. Two times my wife had diarrhea and we had to come to the hospital and do a blood test. And on those two occasions he recommended ORS. I've asked him and all he keeps saying is 'When we see', meaning I have to come and see him face-to-face again.

I'm not saying C -Section babies are not normal o. I'm just worried about safety of all concerned. You will agree with me that women of nowadays are not as strong as our mothers, they want everything easy. I want it easy too, I love my wife more than I love myself.

As for the twins, I didn't expect it either. I didn't want her to do a scan but after seeing the size of her stomach I had to. And trust me, even though I'm glad to be a 'Papa Ejima' I'm equally worried about the cost. Already, the hospital has told us to buy another round of the very things we bought before for one baby.

there's nothing wrong with what that doctor is doing, he's very smart.
1. He is not obligated to answer your questions on the telephone.
2. It's risky, what you say over the phone won't paint a full picture, so it is better to come to the hospital with your wife carrying a high risk pregnancy.
3. Any questions you may have, please ask the at the antenatal appointment.

@bolded is a very ignorant comment. A lot more women died during delivery in your mother's and grandmother's time than today. don't be deceived.

CS is done to save as many lives as possible(mother and baby), not proving a useless point and competing with imaginary Hebrew women who do more CS than our women today. Warn yourself.

TechspeciaIist:

Pasima:
Good morning everyone, please I need your suggestion on this situation.

I have a female friend who always shares things with me. She tells me everything about her and I also told her mine. She is in a relationship about to enter marriage but she is not certain she will marry the guy because he is in the force.

But I am falling in love with her, she comes to my house we watch film together and eat together. We snap pics together, she even sat on my laps to snap pics. I felt like telling her that I love her and I want her as my girlfriend but I am scared she might get angry with me then on second thought I was thinking maybe she was waiting for me to say the word.

What do you guys think?

Oga!! Shoot your shot, the worse she will say is no. But are you catching feelings due to your proximity? Is she someone who you see in the long term? Is your vision the same?

Pirow:
The government are not serious at all. The annoying thing about it is that all their children are schooling in abroad so they are not interested in what is going on in our universities

However, if you want to get admission to university in Accra Ghana send a mail to piroawolu@gmail.com, the school fee is relatively cheap compare with private universities in Nigeria, no strike, no JAMB but you must have International passport, residential permits and non citizen card will be processed once you are admitted. Admission is still on for both undergraduate and master degrees, HND can also apply for their B.Sc and master.

is the school NUC approved?

She didn't lie. Public university is a big scam

Danniedpastor:
There is nothing like "redpiller" here.
Its a harsh reality that struggling guys have to face in Nigeria.

Later we start asking why news about money ritual is becoming the new normal.

lol!!

If women start doing money rituals ehn?!

Talking as If men need money more than women

How did a thread for bitter men aka red pillers make front page?

NaijaGoBetter20:
Remember Kombucha takes seven days to complete a production cycle. Please book ahead.

You don't have to pay any kobo until your kombucha is ready for delivery.

how much is the scoby?

ZIMDRILL:
but its not common to teenagers but 50 and above

yes it is not common, but the violence of rape can make uterine prolapse happen. It may not be a full prolapse tho

Charleys:
You saw her uterus outside.
You saw the Uterus of A 16 year old girl outside....


I don't believe you.
Short and simple.

There are so many underage kids in the north giving birth and no one sees Their Uterus outside

it's called uterine prolapse. It happens.

Theunbothered:
This is wickedness, the family is already going through a lot, not even to mention that the lady died after their failed treatment

so the hospital should not be paid? You're the wicked one

Lightorder:
Is this not supposed to be a government hospital ?

And so?

Is government hospital Osho free, or a charity center?

Lightorder:
you made a point but if they couldn’t pay when she was alive, is it now that money will come ?

it's like you don't know Nigerians

SQLmastar:
Perfect opportunity for the clinical schools to obtain cadaver for anatomical sessions.
He should not worry himself about payment. Let the dead bury themselves.

But then let's digress. Shouldn't hospitals offer refunds if patients die in their care?

No, the materials, consumables and expertise used to treat is not free

Hartugrin27:
Pardon!!!
My name is aduragbemi not tuface.
We r all men buh I'm a man

your name doesn't matter.

Once you are a baby daddy, your value goes down really fast in the eyes of responsible women

czarr:
I don't masturbate either..

try celibacy then

czarr:
I don't enjoy condoms at all, e no dey sweet me , e just be me like waste of energy. and I cannot go raw, I de fear infection and HIV too much.

I never ready to marry now and I don't trust the women of today to be faithful so I can't go raw with them either.

I just weak....life is unfair.

Get a Fleshlight.

Hartugrin27:
Having a kid doesn't mean I have a wife
So, pls be less concerned about my life
Cos u aren't getting anywhere with that

you a baby daddy?

No!!

We the elders don't agree!!

A baby daddy for one child will continue to be a baby daddy for other children. We can't have that for datboredberry

Just like 2face, future, nick Cannon and so on

Ayinke93:
It’s always the most undesirable ones who bring absolutely nothing to the table that shout red pill and think they’ll make it enough to punish women. It’s hilarious. You think me sef I’m sleeping and waiting for a man to take care of me
Nigerian men really need to work on themselves. A lot are very underwhelming with egos bigger than what they’ll ever have In their bank accounts. Very funny people.

See finishing

Danielkelly:
Some guyz do o,

But me i just loose interest.
It makes the stronge man feel needy.
I prefer myself being chased.

now that fair ladies are chasing you, shouldn't you be happy?

Idamond:
What will you advise the Aunt to do?
Copied

send that child back to whoever she crawled out from

Favfables1:
What are you saying Biko?
Are you comparing an accident case with sexual related complications, like seriously??!! ...

And besides...
Where did you learn that riding okada causes accident? Is that what they taught you in med school?
Riding an okada does not cause accident Biko, cause even driving a vehicle or a truck can lead to accidents too...

We're advised to drive responsibly, we're advised to not drink and drive etc, so therefore if you choose to ignore those advices, then YOU SHOULD BE READY TO FACE THE CONSEQUENCES ...

Going back to the discussion at hand...
Don't sleep around, you (people) won't listen, they then sleep around, then the consequences show up, consequences such as
STD/STI, unwanted pregnancy, which could result to abortion or single mother/fatherhood or complications resulting from drug use when trying to prevent pregnancy....

And when the consequences and stigma now come, you cry foul, really??

lol. The two are different but the scenario is the same.


@ bolded

So according to your logic, all accidents are caused when people don't follow that advice and should bear the consequences. I know many people that follow that advice and still ended up in an accident

Favfables1:
Well..
Since they won't follow the advice, then there should be ready to face the complications, consequences and/or stigma that comes with it ...

Riding okada leads to accidents so it is advisable not to ride them.

So if we go by your logic. Since adults won't follow advice then they should be ready to face complications, consequences and or stigma that comes with okada accidents

Just like this fellow here who got an okada after 5 years of unemployment and an ailing mother, two days later a trailer ran over his hand. He should face the consequences and or stigma that comes with this

Datikwerreboi:
Cancer isn't rare bro, it has no comparison to this at all. In the fertility clinic I worked hardly will married women report failure of the contraceptives will administer to them

Not true

Favfables1:
How're bout "Abstinence"? ...
Is there a side effect to that too? ...

Abstinence has no side effects.

Telling grown adults to abstain from sex is good, but it doesn't mean that they will follow that advice.

Datikwerreboi:
We all know they're rare irrespective of your statistics

what I am trying to say is that in a country of 200+million people.

Something being rare is large number.

Statistics are people not just abstract numbers.
Cancer is rare, but a lot of people suffer it.

Kobojunkie:
This your math seems off abeg!

it seems off?

You understimate how many people are knacking in this country.

Datikwerreboi:
They're rare abeggi,afterall going out everyday has a risk of you getting killed by a moving car, does it make u not to go out? Rather you become more careful. The failure rates of those birth controls when used correctly is quite low ,

my dear, it is not that rare.

If the failure rate is 1%, that is 1 in 100 couple will have an 'oops' baby.

Remember our Nigerian population 200, million

Let's assume 50million people are having sex, that's 25million women.

25,000,000 divided by 100.

That's 250, 000 babies born every year due to contraceptive failure.

Yusufisraelj:
Success is in the details.

exactly

Cousin9999:
There's birth control, morning after pills, and just plain common sense. Women have more options than abortion.

And people who are against being a single mother don't take issue with "oops" babies. The problem is people who make a conscious decision to have kids OOW. A child isn't a puppy. Show some respect for the life you're bringing into the world. Make a foundation for them.

birth control pill comes with side effects, condom can burst, morning after pill fails at times.
