Mamas please I need your honest input to this issue.

My mum and I were meant to travel to the US for Ayomide's birth at 32weeks....I am scheduled for CS due to previous myomectomy and my doctor doesn't want me to fall into labor at all.

Now my mum's burial has been fixed for when id be 34weeks. Im hoping I can attend so I can pay my last repects to her but everyone is against the idea. Cos I did not handle her death well, I was with her in the room when she passed, they (family and dh) think I might be too stressed out for the burial. My dh thinks traveling to the Village, doing the burial, traveling back to lagos and jumping on a plane at 35weeks for several hours to the US is too much stress.

Please what do you all think?

It is well dear! Take a big hug

I would advise you travel as planned so you don't start struggling with 2 fatalities (God forbid!) instead of one

Your mum sees your heart and I'm sure she's praying for you.

All will go well for you dear and you will return with your bundle of joy in your hands

MomSomyy:
thank you so much. I will just reapply b2 and tell the truth that I am going for child birth and take all my correspondence (Even tho Dr and Hospital wants me to come in before I pay) but while filling the form the part that asks if you traveling with a companion do I state my kid there or not? Baby is a citizen. Thanks again.

Yes, you should state your kid

Orirebaby, thanks darling

Iomoge2,

ginababy:
Now my head is spinning. Completely lost now. First spray bottle? N witch hazel pad is it a normal pad lyk d usual ALWAY or Lady Care etc pad dat we use during AF or its more lyk d COMFIT pad. I'm asking because I dnt want 2 go mess up myself n someone's house since I will b traveling 2 give birth der b4 coming bak 2 my house. Only God knows hw long I will need 2 stay der n manage space b4 coming bak home. D death of a mother is d side effect of all dis confusion n stress. May God help me, my hubby n LO.

Abeg sabi mamas help in feeding me wt all d info dat might b handy 4 m
Cc all d sabi mamas
Cc God (lol)

The witch hazel pads re something like the attached pics. U put it on ur regular sanitary pad and wear. If you don't find it, ask for the spray. You spray it on ur pad and wear. It will reduce postpartum vjay irritation.

For the spray bottle, u can improvise. Get any plastic bottle, open a hole at d top and each time u finish urinating, spray the area

You can ask pharmacy or cosmetic shops for the witch hazel.

Mitchyy, he mentioned dat he's a paramedic.. and hey, it's not nice to jump into discussions! He should av read back a bit to knw exactly wat we re talkin bout.

Cutienik, tanxs sweetie. Case settled

Pintoxx, I saw d sales banner... I think it's babyshop; 30% discount or so.

I got d spray in yankee

Nwapastor, good to hear from you dear..

Did I hear beat a pregnant woman

My dear, you need your sanity and for the sake of ur unborn child, I will say give him space! Involve both families ASAP! Domestic violence is not something to keep mute about!

ginababy:
If dats d case I will patiently luk 4 ur brand dat is tested n trusted. Tnx dearie. Mwuah.

I was also told to use ice pack which was very soothing too.

Also, get a spray bottle and use each time you urinate

I also used witch hazel pads which also eased the post partum vjay pain

All these were used for my me by my post partum nurse wen I mentioned dat the pain was much and I was also given to take home.

Don't worry sweetie, you will be fine

thorpido:
Others are reading the thread.

For their sake,i'll say please don't just spray anything in your privates.

I can't see anything in my comment to get u offended anyway.

Are you a qualified ob/gyn?

Do you even know the spray I'm talkin about and what it's used for?

Hello!!!! Don't jump into discussions just like that! That's very rude of you

I don't owe you any details of what we were talkin about!

Once again, stay clear from women's discussion! We are sharing experiences here and not talkin rubbish!

Onyinyechika08, my wonderful teamie

Thank you for that beautiful research!!

We must all carry to term and come october, it will be celebrations galore in Jesus name. Amen!

Congrats on your team blue... I'm yet to check. i'll ginger odas so we can update

Kindly step aside!

I don't appreciate your comments/questions or wateva

ginababy:

zeejam:
Hello dear Mums and Mums to be. please. i need information about birthing in wisconsin or chicago, the Costs, etc. Can't seem to find any information on chicago and wisconsin. I got my visa yesterday B1/B2, we only filled that we are going on vacation. The interviewer only ask us where we work n if we have travelled before. She didn't check doc and that was all. I intend going next month. Do I send doc to the embassy to declare my intention or I should just say am on vacation n to have my baby at the airport. Pls it's urgent help a sister.

Big thanks.

Dear Zeejam,

First, go for your vacation as declared.

Use that period to source for hospitals/doctors. Take a tour round them, ask questions and decide who to settle for.

Return back to naija, wen you are due; you can go back. By then you are armed with all the documents you need.

Avoid misrepresentation of any kind.

Good luck with your decisions

ginababy:
Hmm my mind is nt set 4 dat. Can I get dat in d pharmacy?

I think you can. Check those big pharmacies. E be like u be like me o, my pain threshold is 0

After I gave birth, hot water was my best friend o.... I fill the bath tub and can stay inside for 1hr! "ol

Lbotusme:

Omowunmigan, take it easy sweetheart!

God is still in the business of doing miracles!!

Brace up! It will end in praise for you *big hugs*

Teeteek, I sight you

Wats up babe?

ginababy:
Which is body pain n stomach ish again? I thought they said wen once u giv birth u feel relieved frm any form of pregnancy ish. I'm nt cut out 4 any pains ooo. Pls explain.

Lol..get ready for more pains!

Your down below did an amazing job pushing out a baby so expect some pains there

Body pains most times is as a result of vigilante

Also, if you had any tear, expect some pain esp when u want to poop

The good news is that sitz bath and pain meds should sort you out.

dermoplast spray was given to me in the hospital and it saved me a lot. Also, putting epsom salt in my bath tub filled with hot water helped relax my muscles and relieved body pains

simababe:
Feddy27, I love the mumsy birthday mate thingy. It's so lovely. I wish I can give my boy a birthday mate but doc said i'll be 36weeks by then n it's too early. It would av bn lovely

don't worry, next baby will fall in place for you

MetroTee:
I don't get this. Why not allow your body progress naturally? I believe one should only be induced if you are past your due date or if baby is too big or distressed. Forcing your body to do what it's not ready for is not worth it IMO. These days it appears induction is now for convenience purposes :/

I'm happy you had a pleasant experience tho. I was one week past my due date and doctor suggested induction. Fortunately, I went into labour naturally just before induction started and I'm very pleased I chose to wait that extra week. To each his own

Abi o.

me sha, i was already getting tired. didn't have the patience to wait. so wen the option was discussed, i embraced it wit both arms

greatie:
Thank you for this. Cant tell u how this has helped me, being so scared for some days now.

Fear not *big hugs*
