Sorry is coming dis early but I just have to pour my hrt out Mayb I will feel beta.I tend to ask my self why am I dis too emotional?Why do little things get to me and why are some men not appericiative of ones little effort,why do d attach meaning to some things?Am not crying right now,is just someone dat is cutting onions here.
So,2day is bae birthday.Since dere won't b any celebration cos no cash,i decided to make do wit wat I have.So I woke up and made pancake n heaped it on d plate n placed a knife in it.i asked him to come over wit all smiles on my face so we can have a snap shot.All dis man could tell me is 'Allah sauke'.Na so I vex comot knife n went to bath Jay.E didn't stop dere,he had to add salt ontop injury by saying I was mocking him.Chai, wat wrong have I done?Does it look like mockery cos I didn't have it in mind when I set out to do it.

I used mirena. It’s an IUD too but hormonal. I used it from March 2012 to August 2016 although it was meant to last for 5yrs. My village people tickled my fancy and I decided to remove it earlier because I suddenly started missing my menses.
I saw my period two weeks after I removed it, saw it the ff month and took in the next month.
I had no issues with it and didn’t have to be checking if it’s there every time. If you have heavy flow or hates menses the way I do, you can go for it.
The truth is that people react to contraceptives differently. Finding what your body will accept is key.
I’m still going for this soonest.

@ bolded, missing menses ke...iffa hear!

feddy27:
yes na... one more to go... vision 2020

feddy27:

Misi16:
Good evening mums,
I've been a silent reader on this forum since my son was born in July2016. I have learnt a lot and also enjoyed benefits(na only 3 little Angel diaper I buy for MFA o ).
I am not a social media person, not on instagram twitter,etc but decided to join nairaland because of this forum and contribute what little I can and not take only. I appreciate all the mama's here for helping me raise a fine son and keeping me sane while doing it.
You mama's rock

Eheeen
Na una finish MFA diaper ba?

feddy27:
no fixed price.. depends on where it is done. heard it's free at health centres.. not sure about this info tho

yeah it's free at Mushin general hospital, I have a Dr friend there who told me about it so I'm guessing it's same for other GHs

The copper IUD

HMO covered it, but I don't think it's expensive.

MamaDG:

which of them?
my HMO covered the IUD

Jennykoko3009:
Pls mama i want to learn oo. Does it mean dat pple wit irregular menses shouldnt use arm implant contraceptive?

The arm implant is hormonal
the coil (IUD) isn't hormonal (doesn't contain hormones)....my gynae advised me on mine, cos I wanted to see if my period will regularise after birth and thankfully it did.

Maybe u shld ask a gynae or dr.

kelizosuy:


The thing sweet pass normal milk

We've made it just thrice but it's almost finished now

I really need help I swear

e b like d milk no too cost for ur area, remember this is just the early months o...u still have a long way to go

How do you control yourself from eating your baby's food?

Naomi14 coman see ur fellow licki-licki baby milk

I have a copper IUD inserted since April 2017. The reason I went for copper was because I didn't want any hormonal contraceptives because I had irregular periods before I concieved.
I was asked to come on the last day of my first post-partum period for insertion. The insertion process was a bit uncomfortable, The nurse claimed that normally it shouldn't be, but it was cos I had my baby via CS. , something abt cervix bla bla bla.
I felt a bit of pain afterwards (a few doses of panadol helped me get thru this) and I had to use a pad for 2 days after cos I had light spotting)

Side effects I have felt is only heavier periods - I use 3 and half pack of always (blue pack of 7) per period..(I used to have heavy periods before pregnancy tho, but the nurses said heavier periods is a major side effect).
Some ppl claim their partners feel it during s.ex, I don't know how true that is cos my DH has never felt it while doing the do.

Disadvantage - Menstrual periods can shift the coil, so u will need to search and feel the strings after each period to be sure it is still there...it's not so difficult sha, they will teach u at the clinic.
however, If for any reason, you do not feel it, Pls go back to the clinic to get it checked.

If well inserted, IUD can last for up to 10 years.

P.s - After my 2nd missionary journey, I think I'll just go for the arm implant . Hopefully, I won't be needing to regulate any periods.

MamaDG:

MamaDG:
I have been looking for pear in all the markets. They said its out of season. I don't think we have prune in Nigeria. I discovered it was the flagyl I was using that is affecting my baby's poo. I have stopped it though.. I now make his cereal light and I tried this early warm water as u advised but my baby rejected it immediately he noticed its not the usual sweet ordinary water. thinking of trying orange juice.

Y r u giving him flagyl? Even I as an adult, flagyl constipates me
I see pear all around me o, hope it's not avocado pear they think u r looking 4? Cos Dt one is scarce
How old is ur baby?

Akorkor:
Thanks sweetie.... muahhh
