itching is sign dt u r healing properly... Ur mom is right.

Okay Ma. Thanks for your response

onyexx:
The healing process of that stitch is something else…it’s been 10weeks since I had my baby, the stitch is completely healed though slight pain when I sit in certain positions…the fear to even have sex ehn…my mind is playing games with me

10 weeks kwa. Your DH get patience o. E pele. I thank God I'm far away from mine for now. Mine itches and my mind wants to think of infection but it's not possible mbok not after all the antibiotics I don swallow this period and whereas my mum said it's part of the healing process.
I wish Nigerian women would write more about the postpartum period as it is never spoken about. In terms of what to expect and how to handle. But if one does, the normal criticism of "Are you the first to birth a child".......

[Very normal,u are lucky is not paining u as u try to push it,u had same experience, tried to push it,the thing pained me ehhh,soon urs will start falling offf on its own. You are healing, don't worry.'(

Wow, I'm worried as the thing is big like a lump. If I'm scared, I just looks at my son and smile sheepishly that I'll be fine by God's grace.

Good evening Mamas,

Congrats to the mamas that recently gave birth.
Abeg advise me experienced mamas. I carried mirror to see if all my stitches have fallen off below, lo and behold I saw a part of popping at the entrance of the holy field.
I touched it and it's not painful and I've been trying to push it in to no avail. Although I've been trying to push the part in with a towel soaked in hot water but I still dey fear.
My surgeon dey Benin as na der I born, I dey Lag for Ukak Uman (Omugwo).
Is it a normal occurrence

Congrats Ma

Take a stool softener. You should not stress yourself this much. Be mindful of the stitches loosening. I can't imagine you going for another re-stitching. A friend went through this same ordeal and took a stool softener. In the meantime, just try to increase your fibre intake. Sorry, sis.

Thank you ayeneka.

semisola:
So sorry Mama
Pls do buy Enema kit from a good pharmacy. It will surely help

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look for it. I hope you're recuperating. How's princess?

Hamzashaf99:
Not nice though. If it's getting more serious, disturb them abeg. That block up is seriously not funny.

Okay.

thejourney200:
In that case, you may want to increase your vegetable intake then.

I am trying to.

thejourney200:
Why aren't they prescribing stool softener for you? Call and ask if they can prescribe that to you or ask at the nearest pharmacy.

It's not common here sir. Pharmacy said I can't take any medication.

Hamzashaf99:
This was my first journey. What helped me the second time was vegetables soup and less swallow. I ate the vegetable soup as a meal alone as it always relaxes my digestive system.
Oh, and with a lot of pepper. Was painful but worth it.

I'll try it. Thank you Ma.

Omakraid:
Sorry ma, please just increase your fibre intake and watch the meals you take. You will get better ma

Thank you Ma

Good morning mamas.
I am having difficulty passing stool for 5 days now. I cried today as I bled to pass stool coupled with my stitched below.
I was at the health center yesterday and the doctor recommended fruits, vegetables, more fluid which I was doing prior to my visit.
They're using breastfeeding to guilt trip me and not prescribe something. Oyibo dey take stool softener as seen on pinterest.
Experienced mamas, epp your junior mbok kubok Abasi.

ROLL CALL FOR TEAM JANUARY

Happy new year house, our waddling mamas, sorry for my absence.

Praise God, I have put to bed to the most beautiful baby girl ever, it was through an emergency C-SECTION, the devil wanted to try us but God had the final say.

I am fine but still recovering, C-section isn’t for the faint hearted, I will be back to drop my BA story.

Congrats Cappo. Thank God for victory.

u c dos our old mums dnt let pesin to rest until pesin abide by their rules, its not her fsult ... My eyes c wehn in my previous... My mother inlaw used hot water 4 me too, i tink d stitches melt wen i check but d fear of goin bk to restitch didnt mk me go bk to where i gav birth but i went to another hospital who did checkup on me n told me i am healing properly... Omo!!! I just kuku leave my pussy lik dt n everything went bk into place n i dnt fart from there... I guess i was lucky oooo

I tap into your grace o.....

Honeysweetest:
oh noo, y will u sit on hot water? Some stiches are not for hot water, nevertheless,visit any available hospital,fear not���,and learn to stand ur ground no matter who is involved.

Okay Ma. Thanks

kokaiye:
hello ma... I think the hospital u gave birth should ve a routine checkup for every women that gav birth in their hospital to check if their vj is healing properly... Ring ur hospital up, 4 checkup appointment.

Okay Ma. thank you.

successhungry:
Hi,mama. This noise you are talking about ehn?! Is it like you are farting from the vj?
Do you sit properly regardless of the pain? I had a terrible tear when I had my first and was in serious pain; was told to keep sitting normally and not tilt my bum to the side or i start farting from the vj. Please,use warm (not hot) water for sitz birth ; according to the hospital instructions. I'd suggest you go the hospital and have the place checked because you may freak out if you check by yourself. I pray the stitch isnt broken down because its another round of pain to get it stitched except if ts healed to a certain extent then you'll be told to continue sitz bath for proper healing

It's like a farting sound though.
I do sit properly.
Okay.
Thank you Ma.
My mum and aunt says my below will not be good anymore if I don't sit.

Good evening Mamas, I'm a FTM. I had first degree tears during labor. I was stitched with dissolvable.....I was brought for Omogwo and forced to sit on hot water after my resistance today. Few hours later, I think my below is making noise of which it was never like that. Experienced mamas, abeg epp me as I'm confused if it's fear or the place don scatter.

BS! BS!

Good Morning Mamas and compliments of the season.
I woke up on 21.12.21 by past 6 and noticed water was dripping from the hole. I thought it was urine as a result of baby pressure on my bladder, I went to ease myself, it was still dripping. DH Googled and said that my water may have broken.
I went ahead with my activities like dishes, laundry and perfecting baby things I may need incase it's labour. I was calm because it was my normal Antenatal appointment day also.
When I was done, I dressed up, wore pad with the intention of going to the office as I have an erroneous transaction of a customer to the tune of 1m I was battling with and also to apply for leave. I called my supervisor that I may not make it to the office and she threatened to issue me a query if I appeared at work that I should focus on my baby. Funny enough I have never missed work since 4 months till I delivered as some of my colleagues I was talking with during labor asked me to go home after my Antenatal appointment that I'm too passionate about my job....lol
I went to the hospital with handbag and not delivery items (I get mind sha but I told DH to bring it if need be ), I told the nurse I met that I'm having fluid dripping I wore pad as I'm heading to work. She said it's the doctor that'll advise if I can go upon review.
I saw the doctor and I was matched to delivery ward. From the reception to the delivery ward, I was doing squats as labour was progressing. The women who were admitted days before me in the delivery ward, were still there and were looking at me exercising during labor. Labour started by 8 AM approximately. By past 10, I was 2 cm gone. 3.30 PM, 6 cm gone and by 4:30 PM fully dilated. I told the nurse I want to excrete, she said it's the baby's head that I should proceed to delivery room proper. The delivery nurse monitored me and advised on how to push by pushing in line with the contraction only and stopping when it stops.
I tried to follow the instruction and by 17:05 my bobo came out weighing 3.1kg upon my colleagues calling me foodie and in less than 30 minutes, placenta came out but he tore me sha
I was stitched and now recuperating. We look forward to being discharged soon.
@semisola my Cappo, BS submitted.
I pray for stress free delivery for my mamas here.

semisola:
Hope you went to the hospital for check up? That leaking water might be a sign of intended labor.. best of luck, can’t wait for our first B A

BA BA

I don't port since 17:02 oooo
Safe delivery to my other teamies in this group.
I use us as a point of contact for TTC mamas, they'll flood this thread soonest by God's grace.
BS will come later mbok
