We are in same shoe kinda.. Though I brought a Nanny for mine. So the Nanny feeds her with expressed breast milk and sometimes formula, she is already getting used to it now, it wasn't easy at first ooo she kept rejecting it. What I would advice is to get someone else to feed your baby, maybe hubby or family friend cos it will be difficult to accept that from you when he knows he can get breast milk from the source till now I can't bottle feed my baby she won't accept but someone else can do that. You can try my suggestion so he gets used to it before you resume work.

pateffy:
Good evening mothers please I need your encouragement and advice i will be resuming work last week of this month my baby will be starting creche in a week from now have been doing breast feeding and water for the past two months and just started giving him Nan last week and he struggles to collect it
Some people are of the opinion that when he starts creche he will take the Nan if he doesn't see me mommas how true is this and what else can I do to make him eat fine I do not want him to loose weight when he starts going to the creche.

Please do not waka pass
Chook mouth and help me.

Maybe you should try sebamed baby soap

eolowu1:
gud moni my able mothers, pls my dd has rashes don't even no d name of d rash whether its eela or elefo, my mum has gotten d red flower, we av started using it to bathe her, her face is nt smooth at all, pls which cream can I use for her although am using boots for her,
note; i ve used baby tribotan for her face yet nt smooth pls help me

Its really crazy... Baby clothes are really expensive especially for outings, it's usually 5k and above.
Its more annoying cos they outgrow it very fast and wearing oversize doesn't make them look smart at all.. God will continue to provide for us oo

Giddyperson:

Christmas clothes ke. GB is going to repeat her birthday outfit for Christmas cuz I spent a lot of money on that thing and she only wore it for like 2 hours on the day before she got cranky and had to wear a bodysuit. And she would soon outgrow it and what if I never have another baby girl, my money can not just go like that.

Ok back to your question. I noticed that there are lots of baby shops on my street, that's where I buy outing clothes. But they are expensive. Most times a pair of anything would cost 5k more or less. Dresses are even worse. Those shops are everywhere really. Baby clothes is lucrative business

I think it depends on the type of body sha.. I'm 9 weeks postpartum via c section and my tummy is almost flat, i didn't do anything at all not a belt yet but you can try a postpartum belt if you are on the big side but be careful so you don't hurt yourself.

Forodu:
Hello new moms , this is actually my first post on this platform and I'm hoping I'll get some advice.
Please i am a first time mum and delivered via a c section. I know they say i should take my time to loose the tummy fat.but can anyone suggest a quicker way to do so.is it possible to loose tummy fat after a c section ?

Pls listen to your Doc Ma, they know better by God's help

berryBee:
Mas pls i need advice. My baby of 1week has been recieving phototherapy for jaundice. The SBE value got to 16, and the doc told me.to stop breastfeeding. I stopped, presently the value is at 10.9. But the doc is telling me i wont be discharged until it reduces to about the value of 6. But from all i hv googled online it seems like jaundice can also be treated with sunrays and will stop before the baby is 2weeks. Pls I need advice. Should i ask to be discharged or keep waiting for the value to drop to 6

So sorry about that.. God will give you double for your pains

For the breast milk, don't express the milk or massage the breast just allow it.. It will dry up on its own
It will get sore though, use cabbage leaves on it to relief the pain.. Other sabi mamas can edit or add theirs

joycluv:
I had a still birth and my breast milk keeps flowing. What do I do to it?

Hahahahahaa
Okay dear
Thanks

Giddyperson:
My fellow Roughplay people have come again this morning . The answer is always postinor. You can confirm from the pharmacist when buying.

Good evening Mamas! Pls is there any emergency contraceptive for nursing mothers ??
I need answers pls

Go to the doctor
Pls and pls don't take flagyl

HeroesMum:
BS! BS!! BS!!!

I want to thank God for a successful pregnancy journey. had no Ms, only hip bone pain from 7months to due date and also experienced serious Braxton Hicks in this pregnancy.

on the 28th of Sept. went for my weekly antenatal checkup, I was checked and observed to be 2cm but no contraction. The Dr decided to sweep my membrane based on our last discussion. The following day noticed so much mucus plug mixed with blood, this discharge continued till 3rd of Oct.

On the 1st of Oct which was my Dad's birthday, while preparing for his birthday celebration I was busy with the restroom (was having running stomach), I stool for like 6times that day. the stooling continued the following day with mucus plug and whitish discharge but no contraction yet just Braxton Hicks

On the 3rd of Oct I woke up at 12midnight and was urinating every 15 to 30min, I was suspecting it might be my amniotic fluid but decided to monitor till morning. in the morning I decided to wash all the dirty clothes and prepared breakfast, at about 12noon my water broke properly. We left the house by 2pm and got to the hospital at 4pm due to Lagos traffic, I was checked and confirmed to be 4cm, was having very mild contractions.

I was taken to the labor room and was augmented, dat was wen real labor started. the exercise lasted for 3hr.30min, got to 10cm and was asked to push. I pushed tiya but baby was not coming out, I was given episotomy, I tried pushing again dat was wen d nurse noticed cord around my baby's neck. I was asked to stop pushing and the cord was cut after which she came out on her own without me pushing sef. Due to the cord she came out weak but they were able to make her cry very well.

Finally I will be referred to as a mother after 3yrs of pains and tears. My fifth pregnancy and second delivery survived, King of Glory thank you.
To as many dat might have experience a loss in the past either miscarriage or infant death, pls don't give up it's not over. weeping may endure for the night but joy will certainly come in the morning.

BS submitted, biko manage BS am not a good writer.

Wow! What a detailed story.. No be small drama oo
But i really thank God for your life and baby Akorede cos it was like you entered the lion's den but God brought you out safely.
Congratulations once more

zaynie:
Part 2.

So there I was, in the Drs office, questioning her every move, asking what her plan was. She looked to me like she was overwhelmed. She needed time to think and plan but I had no time. The contractions weren't letting up and I was beginning to see red. The nurse told the Dr that I should be moved from the observation room to the delivery room in case baby came earlier.
I got to the hospital around 4.13am ó. By this time it wá slime 5.15am. Husby practically towed me upstairs cos each step I took was painful.
Got to the delivery room, they were rushing to set things up, Dr was confused, normal saline drip or dextrose sugar? I could have diabetes and my BP was high. The nurses advised her to go with dextrose since my BP was still very very high and rising. The consultant called and asked her to give add salbutamol to the drip. The contractions were so close that by then I didn't have any patience again, they broke my water and asked me to push with the next 2 contractions cos I was already at 10cm. So fast right . In less than 2 hours, the joys of being a 3TM.
I was told my cervix was fully effaced and very soft and I could get away with no tear if I pushed right but by then I was very weak and thirsty. I pushed with all my might (I pushed just twice for Múná ó) several times but nothing. I tried all means and the contractions stopped again. Are you kidding me?!
The nurse gave me a cut and brought the head out forcefully, she kept yelling.... I need help here! The others had rushed out to do one thing or the other.
One nurse went to attend to another woman in labour.
Dr was looking for my OGTT result.
The other Dr was getting my Salbutamol
Another nurse went for one thing one thing.
It was just this nurse, my husband and I.
As she was shouting I need help, me ṣef was shouting Help!!!! in a louder voice.... Abeg who wan die?
When we didn't see anyone, she instructed my husband on what to do and told me.... Your baby's head is blue. I need you to push with all your might.
Blue? That wasn't part of the plan. Not for me. Not for Akorede.
I pushed and pushed and nothing. She legit expanded my vagigi with her hands and brought Akorede's shoulders out. She kept screaming... Cord around the neck! Baby is blue!!!
She threw the limp baby on me, truly she was blue and didn't even move at all. Then she grabbed the baby and raced off with the others that finally arrived.... All empty handed
I told my husband to go after them but he chose to stay by my side cos I was hysterical. I kept screaming Akorede... Like I think the whole hospital knew my daughter's name.
Akorede!
Akorede!!
You shall not die.
You have a long healthy life ahead of you.
Your siblings are waiting for you.
I have beautiful things waiting for you. Dresses and gifts..... Plans and Dreams.
I was praying and crying and my husband was trying to calm me down because of my BP. Then I began to shiver and gasp and he had to rush out. He came back with another nurse and told me she was okay.
She pulled the placenta out, showed it to me and then the bleeding began.
I was given something to stop the bleeding and yet it didn't. I could feel the blood pouring and pouring..... I remembered when I was lax with my ferrous and a young Dr advised that of all the drugs, I should be most serious with the ferrous for my own sake. That bleeding is the number one thing you never budget for in a normal delivery and most women have passed away from it.
She gave me more of the drugs and the bleeding abated. The pressed my tummy and huge clots of blood fell out and she began to suture me. While suturing she noticed some cysts in my vulva and had to call the Dr to drain and investigate it. Hmmmmmm
Never had any infection in pregnancy ó.
Finally, sabutamol came. I declined and asked them to measure my BP first, it has fallen to 150/110 so I told them no. Abeg don't make me hypotensive join.

At a point, the nurse was like "just keep quiet for one minute!" your voice is in our head and we're not thinking right..... Ejoor... We're talking about my life and that of my child here. A dent in your career is a snuff in my life. No room for mistakes abeg.
I was sutures but my pelvis was on fire due to the fact that she pulled Akorede out roughly and I was feeling dizzy from the bleeding.
Akorede was brought to me like 3 hours later.
It was love at first sight.
I mean I have 2 kids I love to the moon and back.
How is it possible to have so much love for this stranger .....
I was under watch all through the day cos I was still bleeding heavily. Each time I stood up, I would flood the floors. I kept getting more and more pitocin which meant more contractions and pain.

The bleeding later stopped and I was discharged the next day.
My pelvis is still on fire and I'm limping from the aches.


I would say my labour went faster than expected.
Got to the hospital 4am and had my baby 6am. All the people we were gisting the previous night were all shouting..... Even my in-laws were surprised that I had given birth even before they knew I was in labour.
But what my eyes saw in those 2 short hours....
We later saw all the needle marks on her thighs where they tried to resuscitate her.


I never ate anything to speed labour. I was tempted to use EPO but because I read it is a blood thinner, I stayed away once I was aware I could have bleeding issues.
I ate dates to soften my cervix. I didn't binge on it. Just ate it casually.
I ate pineapples like 2 weeks earlier but all I got was bad cramps. The pineapple I ate was just bleh and like 1/8th. Very small but it was enough to strengthen the contractions because baby was ready to come.
I wanted to do a membrane sweep on Friday so baby could come on a weekend but decided against it cos I wanted her to come much closer to Muna's birthday on 25th .
Adele's mom Kelizosuy was even begging me to give Adele birthday mate and I was doing shakára that I don't want Monday baby I didn't know Akorede had plans.




PS: after birth if you notice swollen armpits, don't be alarmed they're actually milk ducts. Mine are as big as an egg and painful AF.
All you need to do is make sure your baby empties the breast or pump it out, then use a hot towel to compress.




Cappo Joomie.

GenyEbere:
October mamas una well done see BA back to back. I said I won't enjoy this laughter alone. Baby Ndubuisi was 2months yesterday and he decided to grace me with this unending laughter. To my going to conceive this laughter is your portion.

Congratulations Mama.. God bless our new soldier

Docnnechiji:
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

For mine, i added an extra 15kg by the end of the pregnancy. During the pregnancy i ate normal plus almost everyday soft drink especially the last trimester but baby weighed 3.3kg when she came out which isn't so big. According to my neighbor, she didn't eat much in her pregnancy but her baby came out weighing 4.5kg. The weight of baby is not ALWAYS dependent on what you eat.

whyworryPH:
Rant time

Mamas, I didn't expect the symptoms I had in my first trimester to come hitting me back like this.
I am experiencing the same type of hunger I felt in my first trimester. I will finish eating and in 3 hours I will feel like I have not eaten since 2 days. I mean, I will be shaking. And if I don't eat bellefull, I won't be myself.

What about sleep? Hmm...my name now is madam sleep. I might not be able to sleep back after my midnight prayer but I make up for it by sleeping all through the day

My clients that I write for online are only condoning me cos of my condition cos I usually end up delaying their work for days. Thank God I work from home otherwise, no boss will condone me at this point.

Tomorrow I will be 33 weeks and this is certainly not good for me at this point. Have been experiencing this since I entered 30 weeks.

Although I have only added 3kg so far in this pregnancy (don't need to add much cos I was already overweight pre pregnancy), I sometimes wonder if baby is piling the weight instead.
My last scan at 27 weeks showed baby weighing normal according to stats.
Biko, ejor, mbok, is anyone else experiencing this or ate this much and baby came out not weighing so much?

I'm not complaining God (please do not be angry with me), but I would love to know if anyone else is or had been in my shoes.
End of rant

Congratulations to our Mamas for the sae deliveries. May your LOs be a great source of joy to you.

FaithLovve you are very much welcome, this is a beautiful place to be.. I wish you a healthy pregnancy and i know you will smile afterwards.

Its well with you. I pray everything goes successful, you will come out with your baby hale and hearty. The Lord is your strength dear

luvissweet2f:


How are you dear?
You are my EDD mate (13 Nov).
I have placenta previa that has refused to resolve and have been hospitalized and transfused. I'm still on admission now. My doctors are waiting till I get to 36 weeks for elective CS.
How are you holding up? You complained about your baby not growing as should a few weeks ago. How are you now? Hope everything is OK with you and baby?

Hmmm... Its well.
The surgery will go well

Bunny19:
Good morning mamas! Hmm.... Allah gives and Allah takes! Am hurting sisters, am really hurting but who am I to say no when God has decreed a thing.

I went for a second opinion and truly my baby is no more. IUFD(intra uterine fetal death) according to the two scans. Remember when I was 6weeks n went for scan, they said d fetus is sharing same space with a submucous myoma,apparently the fibroid grew big and kind of suffocated the fetus.

Alhamdulillah for the experience,after 8yrs of trying I was able to carry a child in my womb for 19weeks, I know am not barren and this just proves it.

Greater things ahead for me, will look into how to get rid of this fibroid then I will try again, I won't give up. I need all d prayers I can get from u all as I go for evacuation.

I love u all and wish my lovely team mates and all wonderful mama safe delivery. N one will suffer any loss inshaAllah. It's well with u all.

Just like that?? Oh no! this cant be happening. I pray its a mistake from the sonographer, go for another scan. I believe God will show himself, there shall be no loss. I begin to speak life into that baby, we believe in the report of God Almighty because he alone has the final say. We pray for goodnews in Jesus name.

Bunny19:
I went to hospital after work and they did scan n d senographer said the baby is no more and we have to evacuate. I am so not myself and I don't know what to do. My elder Sis said I should go for second opinion. Pls mamas pray for me let my joy not be cut short. Ya Allah

Congrats ��
