Gud aftanun Sistas. I read sum pages back and noticed dat my angry comment of my qst not being ansad offended sum pple. Am sori. I didn't min it dat way. I was down dat evening and tot I cud receive encouragement frm sum1 wen I came online but was hurt wen no one ansad me but odas were bein ansad. Lyk sum1 said, u don't no hw encouraging it is 4 sum1 2 reply u evn if d qst has bein asked a million tyms. I did try 2 get ansas b4 asking but d search button refused 2 cooperate. Anyway, dats water unda d bridge.

I went for HSG dis morning. Oh my God, it was so painful. I cried lyk a baby. It was lyk menstrual cramps tyms 2. I prayed 4 no pain and at d same tym prepared myself 4 it but I didn't no wen I started crying evn doe I tried 2 bear it bcs my husband who d doctors allowed 2 b there wen I pleaded wit d radiologists 2 allow him in, already warned me not 2 shout bcs he knows I hv a low threshold 4 pain. Am still cramping and secreting one colorless and odorless substance mixed wit blood. Was supposed 2 bd wit my husband 2day bcs 2day is supposed 2b my ovulation bt it's highly unlikely now. D gud news is dat my fallopian tubes r okay, dey r opened doe till Wednesday b4 I get d results. D bad news is dat d cyst has moved 2my right side and has almost blocked my cervix. It was through d small space left dat dey were able 2 insert dire equipment. D radiologist said my chances of getting pregnant r slim as far as d cyst is still dre and spreading. He told me to bd wit my husband lying on my left side b4 d cyst totally covers my cervix. Bcs I was in pain, I didn't get d explanation until I got home and my husband explained everything 2me. I burst in2 tears in despair bt later stoped bcs i had decided b4 2 tank God no mata wat. I kept telling God dat if He cud pass through Sarah's and Elizabeth's menopause 2 plant babies in dier wombs, den cyst is notin 4 Him 2 handle. My husband wants me 2 have surgery 2 remove it but I don't want 2. I no dis ovarian cyst issue has bin flogged ova and ova again but pls mamas come 2 my aid b4 it totally covers my cervix. I hv decided 2 diligently eat only protein, fruits and vegetables frm now on and I no of ginger, garlic, Guifei bao, acv therapy. Pls wat else do I nid? Am sory 4d long talk. Just trying 2 hold tears at bay. My husband is worried and becoming frustrated at new ailments everyday. Pls help me

I came here with tears in my eyes 2 narrate my HSG experience bt wen I saw MummyEsther's post, I broke down in2 tears and prayed. My own case luks inconsequential. MummyEsther, am goin 2 sing a song dat has bin in my spirit for days now. Pls sing it anytym u r discouraged. It has helped me. I personalized d words

God is the great I AM
He will do what He said He will do
He's not a man dat He should lie
He's not a man dat He should repent
God is the great I AM

God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? Numbers 23:19

It is well

Tanx. Sum1 has ansad me. Fertility blessings

@Joyfulmoda, Tanx 4 ur words of encouragement. May it b done 2 u according 2 ur heart desire. I had a dream last 9te were sum1 was telling me dat wen we complain we tie God's hands. Den I remembered a Christian movie I watched a very long tym ago where d demon of complain refused 2 allow d angel of blessing cari d box of blessings 2 a man who was fond of complaining. D demon had d authority 2 stop d angel bcs of d man's complaining. His complaining gav d demon d right 2 b dre. Wen he stopd complaining and started counting his blessings and tanking God, d ansa 2 his prayas came. I hv taken it as a warning. Am only going 2 count my blessings frm now on. And dey r so many I can't mention dem all compared wit d temporary problems am facin. It is well.

@MummyEsther am hapi 4u 2. It's bfp next. Tanx 4 ur reply 2 my qsts. It made me cry. Bin depressed dis evening. If it were only ttc 4 me, I'd b hapi but I also hv asthmatic and eye issues. My eye drops r not 2b used wen ttc, pregnant or breast feeding. But I don't hv a choice. Was asking God wat is my sin? I try 2 stay positive and hapi wit His word but wen am gasping 4 breath or hv 2 close my eyes 4 minutes 2 stop d pain wen I don't use d eye drops during 2ww, can't help feeling despair. I noticed dat wen I go and do omugwo in my neighbour's house, I don't feel any of dese tins. It's till I get back home b4 dey stat again. Dats y adoption luk so gud 2 me rite now. I feel peace in my soul and body wen am around babies. It is well.

@mummyejire Tanx. @JUMAYIN congrats. U must carry dis one and odas. Amen. Out of all d Modas who hv done HSG on dis thread, no one ansad my qsts. Its not fair. Dats hw no one ansad my last qst abt my husband's sfa results. I hv googled all d info I nid abt d HSG bt lyk I said on d pregnancy thread, dre are tyms wen u just nid a word or 2 just 2 encourage u and hep u hang in dre. Sum of us don't hv any1 2 talk 2 apart frm our husbands. No problem. Guest mode frm now on. @senoreeth, wud hv taken u up on ur offer but am now scared of dese herbal mixtures. D last one I tuk landed me in a hospital wit notin less than 5 drips. I guess now u no wat part of d country I reside in.

@mummyejire congrats. Dat will be my testimony soon. Joyfulmoda it is well. @kudibaby, how is everytin. I went 4 scanning. D cyst has reduced. Frm 51mm to 36mm. I don't no wat I did bcs I didn't rily change my diet and ate only a little ginger bcs it was 2 hot 4me. Am so hapi. Modas in d house pls I hv qsts 2 ask. I hv bin scheduled 4 HSG next wik Monday. Dts cd14. It's dat far bcs d cyst make me spot till lyk day 10 and dey don't do HSG on Fridays and wikends.

1. Pls dose who hv done can u tell me wat 2 expect. Am so afraid dat it wud b painful.
2. D radiologist said I shudnt mit wit my husband frm now till dat day and 2day is cd7. Is dat correct?

Congratulations. U can confirm by going 4 a blood pregnancy test. Pls stop d heavy exercise Abeg. Amen!

oluwashindara01:
i salute ur courage dear ....pls do u reside in Nigeria? and wat do u think ur in laws wld say to d adoption....am seriously think on such as well with DH support but fear dey hold me seriously....as per how my in laws will feel abt it and if it ll eventually lead to Dh been comfortable to go and impregnat another woman....

Tanx. I reside in Nigeria. U nid 2 get ur husband's support and cooperation 1st. Den both of u talk 2 ur parents, let him talk 2 his while u talk 2 urs and den u both talk 2 dem respectively. Hope u don't mind me askin hw old is ur marriage. D older d beta 4 dem 2 understand. Dre r plenty cases were d woman gets pregnant after adoptin a child. Her focus livs ttc 2d child. Try 2 convince dem wit dat. But it shud just be btw u and dem, d whole world dont nid 2 no u adopted a child. Sum1 I no left her home months b4 d adoption came tru, she returned wit d baby and people rejoiced wit her. Anoda one said she wore dat baby bump tin in different stages and made sure she put on weight b4 she traveled 4 a few weeks and returned wit d baby. Dats if u send wat pple say. Personally, I don't send. I will tell whoever dares 2 ask d truth because i no nigerians dont lyk minding dier business. Who doesnt like it should stop coming 2 my house. Its as simple as dat. I don't understand u about ur husband impregnating anoda woman. Do u min surrogacy? It is well

ajuwarhodes:


Sure I know ,just that I heard its not an easy task to do.

Yes. We hed d procedure is tedious but we don't mind.

ajuwarhodes:


Where do think one can get an adoption? Am looking at getting one.I love kids which keeps me wondering why mine ain't here yet

Orphanages

everfaithfulGod:
I hail all mamas in the house o.
Today is my birthday o. I thank God for His faithfulness over my life.
Last yr birthday i was TTC and here i am this year. I thank God for taking me this far.
I hope to get a birthday mate frm my team mate o.
#proudlyteamoctober#

I use this your testimony as a point of contact to myself and oda ttc sisters. So also will I come and testify like dis on my birthday next year in Jesus name. Amen. Happy Birthday and safe delivery

@blessingmama, pls try to calm down. Like @Itissettled3 said dre is notin wrong with ur husband. See, d mind is a very strong component and once it is disturbed it affects ur body. If I were u, I'd stay of ttc from now till jan 2016. Dats wat ur bodies r trying 2 tell u. Go on fruits and vegetables. D testimonies I've bin hearing from pple who changed dier diet to strictly fruits and vegetables and little food hv bin numerous. A family friend had a dream were God told her 2 go on fruits and vegetables after her stroke. She started living on fruits and vegetables, she no longer suffer pain from arthritis except she forgets herself and eats snacks. And her general health is amazing. U hv d next 3 months 2 improve ur health and go on a short holiday evn if it's just wikend. I no its difficult trying 2 4get ttc but just try ur best. As 4 me and my husband, we r seriously tinkin of adoption. Next year will make us 4yrs. I hv a history of high Bp in my family and I don't want 2 take chances with my heart. My husband wants us 2 celebrate our 4th anniversary with our adopted baby. If I conceive afta gettin d baby, all well and gud, if not, I'll luv dat baby wit every breath in me and evn adopt anoda cos am sick and tired of tears and hope deterred and disappointments. It's not as if I don't hv faith or I'm impatient, I just want rest and peace of mind. My own thoughts sha. Fertility blessings everybody.

@smokeydrinky (ironic moniker since u r asthmatic ) Tanx so much 4 ur detailed reply. I wanted 2 reply u on every point u made bt I don't want 2 derail dis thread. Sumtyms u just want 2 share wat ur going tru hopin some1 undastnds and mite offer solutions or encouragement 2 hep u hang in dre. I hv received dat here. Every point has bin noted. Tanx so much.

I wish u all safe and stress free delivery.

senoreetah:


there must be a federal medical center, which state is that

Pls don't be offended, I'd rather not mention it. D FMC is in a local govt dat is far from my place. Wen i wen there a number of tyms, i was unable 2c d consultant. And since once bitten, twice shy, let me follow tchniwinnie's advice to see a consultant in a teaching hospital. Tanx 4 ur concern.

zaynie:




I get that Drs make mistakes a lot of the time but we should try as much as possible not to discredit them without a genuine cause.
Mamafresh, I'm sure you know I said it out of love. If you dont trust your Dr, please dont hesitate to dump his arss. Afterall its your life and his licensce.

Sorry about your case. May God give you double for your loss.

Tanx 4 understanding. I get u. I'll work on my paranoia. Amen 2 ur prayer

zaynie:


Dr wey go school for 7 yrs kan study more about women and pregnancy say use medicine, what do u want us to say nah?
Use it abeg.....

Pls I don't min 2 b rude bt a doctor's carelessness caused me my first and only pregnancy after ttc 4 2 yrs and I haven't bin able 2 conceive again since den. Even his superior was amazed dat he prescribed dose drugs for me wen i was rushed 2 d hospial wen i started bleeding. And in my ignorance, I took dem. wen u conceive after ttc 4 years, u tend 2 b paranoid. So pls excuse her 4 asking. Tanx

tchiwinnie:
@exegesis, amen to ur prayer! God ll surely answer u speedily. pls n pls just as sm1 has pointed out earlier, see a 'physical' Dr. Preferably a consultant in a teaching hospital. Of course, asthmatic women take in, carry to term and deliver healthy babies, so don't think its smthg dat can't b done. there re safe drugs bt nt smthg I ll advice u to get from pple's recommendations here. u need to b properly followed up.
Did u say u ve had 3 xrays in ur lifetym, and u don't want to do anoda cos u re afraid of cancer? 3? Let afraid not catch u o, lol. Just follow ur DR's directive. u need to c a Dr u trust.

Tanx so much 4 ur prompt reply. I hv seen a doctor bt d drugs he prescribed are not advised 2b taken during pregnancy. I told him so bt he waved it aside as if getting pregnant was unlikely for me. And I was actually looking for a non-drug solution here.

It was d 3rd tym I did d x-ray dat d radiologist told me not to do it anymore bcs of d consequences. I just took his advice.

Anyway, Tanx all d same. No teaching hospital in my state of residence so I will have to travel 2 d neighboring state.

By God's grace, I will join dis lively thread filled with caring women b4 d end of dis year. My ttc journey must com 2 an end dis year along with my ttc sistas as well. Amen.

Good evening fruitful mothers. Pls I have a qst to ask. I no I shud go and see a doctor bt I no he will send me to do an x-ray which was suggested by d last doctor i saw bt I can't bcs I've already done it 3 tyms in my lyf tym and was adviced not 2 do anymore bcs of exposure 2 radiation and cancer and I believe 2 an extent dat experience is d best teacher. And am kinda scared of doctor's prescription in my ttc journey bcs it was a hard drug (antibiotics and painkillers) prescribed by a doctor during my 4th wik of pregnancy dat caused me to miscarry.

I was diagnosed with brochitis/asthma some years back. I was using inhaler and a drug for it and it eventually went. Bt it is back now and I'm ttc. Am scared of taking drugs dat might affect my foetus since am hoping 4 a baby. So pls mamas who have d same diagnosis with me, pls how do u manage it? Am in my 2ww and I've had to use salbutamol inhaler, cough syrups with codeine and d asthma drug- betamethasone just so I can breathe. And am scared wen I get pregnant, it mite affect my foetus. Pls is dre an alternative option? Pls if u have an ansa pls help me. Tanx

Kudibaby:
hello dear,actually I have noticed water melon to help blood flow,I will try take it during next AF to confirm,but the blood clot is a sign of the cyst, and i think guifie bao is at work for the blood to be rushing if the cyst has burst you will not even be typing cause it will come with serious abdominal pain unless you get to the hospital,I heard one need to use Guifie Bao and some other product of fohow for the cyst to shrink.Other mamas that have used fohow product will tell you how to go about it.

Okay. Tanx

Goodevening everyone. Long time. Congratulations to all the prego mamas. It is well with us. Kudibaby, pls I have a qst for you on d ovarian cyst issue. I noticed dat when I took watermelon during my period, d thing flowed like mad. D flow stopped on day four but around d sixth day I started secreting blood clots. When I took watermelon dat evening, d thing started flowing again to the point dat it stained my clothes and even my sofa yet I didn't know til I stood up (sorry for d too much info. I want you to understand what happened) D flow stopped again that night but I continued to see d blood clot anytime I wiped afta peeing. I later realised that it wasn't blood, it was very dark in color and dint smell like blood. My husband said it might be that d cyst has burst or something like that because there was a time I felt pain on d left side and later right side and it was d particles dat was probably coming out. So I inserted a Guifei bao seed to help flush out d remnants on day 9. I removed it this morning but it was d same tissue like thing dat came out with a little of d dark clot. So far nothing has been coming out and today is day 12. Please did you experience the same thing? I was supposed to do hsg but dint because of d secretions and I dint even have d money for it. I don't have d money to go for a scan yet. God willing next week I'll go.

Please has anyone else experienced dis?

God will answer our prayers. tanx everybody. pls someone should help me read dis test result. the doctor in the gynea thread said its not too good. what should dh take to improve it. we couldn't see the consultant yesterday. till next week. pls help me

omicron:


The sperm count is on the low side, but still within the normal range.

Sperm motility, or sperm quality, is slightly low. Normally, it should be from 50% and above.

Sperm morphology, or the physical appearance of the sperms, is normal.

There was no significant evidence of infection affecting the semen

The result is neither here nor there. While it is not too bad, he should adopt practices and lifestyle consciously aimed at improving his sperm health.

tanx doctor

gudmoning doctor omicron. tanx again for the other day. pls help me interpret my husband's result.

@exegesis my sis don't cry too much cos you are not alone in this. So many of us has a lot of things in their basket but they are reducing when other mamas in this forum contribute towards its remedy. Stay positive and be prayerful cos our miracle is very near.

tanx so much. I've stopped crying. Amen to your prayers

Redeemed:
@exegesis, pls cry no more I beg of you because that is what the devil want from you. If some of us have to show you our medical report, you will wipe your tears but all the same God is faithful. When He comes around for you, neither cysts nor fibroids can stop him from doing wonders in your life. You .will be amazed by the testimonies of some of our mamas that got their bfp if you've read through the previous pages, so please encourage yourself. Thank God your husband is by your side, what if he's mounting pressure on you, what would you have done.
I will advise you to see your Gynae and also follow up on some advices of our sabi mamas. It is well with your soul, above all keep telling God about it.
Fertility blessings!

tanx so much. I have stopped crying. its not as my tears have reduced the cyst. am to see the gynae on monday. Amen to your prayers

Kudibaby:
sis don't cry God Almighty shall surely see us through, your greatest enemy now is for you to be depressed,stay happy and remember that its a trial from God.Guifei is also good,though I didn't use it,some mamas here have,just be positive about whatever you're doing and also pray.Am also seeing some changes as the cyst has reduced drastically,I ll keep u updated about my succes. all the bes t

okay. tanx so much. Amen to your prayers. congrats on the reduction. by God's grace it will be gone soon. mine too

Kudibaby:
@exegesis let your mind be at rest and stop worrying, a cyst in one ovary will not stop you from conceiving if you ovulate regularly except for the yeast infection, am also having a complex cyst in my left ovary,what I will advice is for you to stay off food that will make the cyst grow further,like all carbohydrates, fat,sugar,red meat,milk etc,take lots of vegetables, fruits, lot of water and exercise, beans,sweet potato, whole wheat meal and white meat should be the only you take for now,and follow it with regular scan to see if its no more growing. always take alligator pepper Abd ginger every morning and stop after AF and continue after O if no bfp,apple cider and black strap molasses should also be taken along with serrapeptase and DIM plus.By the special grace of Allah the cyst will shrink and disappear.note try to stay away from those food listed as they will make the cyst to be growing and not go away in time.The use of castor oil is also advised.feel free to ask me any question as i am also on it,we shall be free from it by His grace.

I don't min to sound bad but am shedding tears right now. its such a relief to see that am not alone and to have someone who understands my situation. dat mins I'll have to change my whole diet. I will go and look for the other drugs because I learned from this thread about apple cider vinegar and guifei bao and started taking dem. I don't know which one of them did it but I no longer have fibroid according to the scan. dat was why dis cyst tin depressed me. as if going from one problem to another. but tanx for dis encouraging message. dh was already getting tired of my tears since I got the result yesterday. are you better now? tanx again

mubzay:
@exegesis: dnt knw much abt d cyst. Has ur doc seen ur report? Abt d yeast, use d most sensitive drug from d test u did n wear only cotton pants den spread in d sun after washing. Also DH must be treated alongside wit u to avoid re-infection. Other mamas will respond.

am to see him on monday. okay. tanx
