Congratulations to my teammates whose babies have arrived already. I share in your joy. May God keep y'all healthy and happy, and may your babies grow healthy and strong.

My Birth Story
Where do i start? The pregnancy was not expected. Withdrawal failed and emergency contraceptive equally failed and i found out i was pregnant. Hmm! Devastated will be an understatement but i later forged ahead, the pregnancy was so different from all i have ever felt before which made me think it was going to be a princess but alas, it was a prince.
My first 3 sons i had them on or before 38wks so you can imagine my shock when 39weeks met me and labour wasn't happening, meanwhile i had started my leave. I kept taking long walks and doing exercises but labour refused to come instead cramps knew me by name.

So on Monday the 26th, i went to the office for ippis verification, when i came back i noticed my BH had increased but i ignored it. By 11pm, i noticed it had a pattern and was regular, 1 in 10mins and was getting slightly painful so i told my hubby who started dancing while i was anxious recalling the laborious road of labour. I tried to sleep but adrenaline was high, by 1am of 27th, i knew i was in for the real deal. By 3am, it has progressed to 1 in5mins and i told my hubby it was time to head to the hospital. After the whole admission process by around 3:45am, i saw show and when i was examined, the doctor said i was in 7cm. When the pain hits, my hubby will rub my waist and i will walk around but they later strapped me to the ctg machine so i had to lie down by force which was pure torture. I bore the pains well by the mouth breathing technique. Everyone kept encouraging me and by 6:45am, i was fully dilated then devil came to put hand.

The matron in charge brought a student midwife that she will take my delivery cos there were many emergencies that morning. The student knew next to nothing. She couldnt even pass catheter into me to drain urine, kept poking me and injuring me in the process. She kept fighting with the ctg machine and will always want to check me while i'm undergoing contraction. I was in 10cm for 1hr 30mins, contractions were coming but not strong enough to give me that pushing urge. At this stage i knew i was in real trouble, i kept telling the student that she needed to augment with oxytocin that has been the practice with my other kids. My contractions usually wane at pushing stage. She kept talking rubbish, when i couldnt take it again started shouting for the doctor and matron to come that i dont want that lady near me. I needed someone that can take decision. The doctor came and examined me and said theres no way d baby can come out cos the head is now transverse so hes no longer coming out with “ogor" so they should give me oxytocin to facilitate things that i have suffered enough. I started crying cos i have been telling the student for over an hour, if only she met her superiors i would have long delivered.

Well, just like a dream the nurse that took my delivery for my 3rd resumed duty and our eyes met, i knew my sufferings were close to an end. She came greeted me, prayed with me and set the correct drops because the student had put the oxytocin but with the wrong drop so i was still not having strong contractions. Immediately, the angel nurse took over my care, the pushing contractions came in its might. With one long victorious killer push from me, my prince came out screaming his lungs out. He gave me a tear but i was now pain free. He weighed 3.25kg. I was overwhelmed with emotions and kept crying, God came through for me using the angel nurse. The tear was repaired after an hour imagine! The doctor just forgot about me. In another hour the team for post partum iucd came and inserted iucd for me. I asked for it during antenatal cos this is where i draw the curtains after 7yrs of meritorious service in child birth.

NB: pls waddling mothers pls pray for those that will take your delivery. Very very important! I wish all March mamas the very best and porters from february and April. I equally want to thank all mamas here for the support, the likes, the well wishes and calls. May the Almighty locate you at the point of your needs. Amen!

Recovery has been great, we were discharged yesterday. The END

nnekaike:
B.S
on Monday I made a post here and some sweet mama's adviced me,and I listened.
on Tuesday afternoon I decided to check my BP and urine somewhere close to my house.Bp was 150/115. and protein in urine was 3+,immediately I called my gyn and he told me to come to the hospital that evening, DH got home from work and took me,we arrived by 8pm,my BP was already 190/115 and 3+ protein in my urine(thats preemclampsia) I was admitted immediately, given drugs,injections and drips to reduce the BP and be set for C.S.on Wednesday morning, by 6.30am my baby was brought out.
My lessons from my experience is that Pre-emclampsia is terrible,it can happen suddenly without notice, all preggy mama's please regularly check ur BP and protein in urine,if you notice any change in ur system,hospital straight. If the doctor Say's C.S agree.
On Wednesday evening. 12 hours after delivery, I had serious convulsion my BP rised to 210/115, I almost died,my baby cries kept me awake(like she knew something was happening),But God who gave me my child gave me a second chance,and his spirit were with the doctors who did all their best to keep me alive.We are still in the hospital,till I recover well.

ElmaSpeed:
BA

To the glory of God, my baby boy arrived at 9:04 am this morning via C-section. I'm doing well.

Welcomed my little angel about an hour ago via VD with cut. God is so merciful to me. We're all doing fine.

Cc lioha

ElmaSpeed:
Let's port together

booqee:
forgive my ignorance.. Induction doesn't necessarily mean CS right? You can be induced and still have VD? What's the possibility or percentage of VD over CS in induction. How painful is induction compared to spontaneous labour?

Baby came this morning at exactly 5.23am weighing 3.7kg without tear.

Mother and baby are back home already. Indeed God is faithful.


#TeamMarchPortedToFeburary


Capoo @Elmaspeed and Team March
Congrats teamie. Back home already? Wow! I tap into this o!

Safe delivery to all preggy mamas

kokozain:
my wife birth story
I suppose to have gave the story earlier than this but the news just been released to my wife yesternight.

foreverjoy00:
BA! BA! My beautiful princess made her grand arrival this morning 8:3O weighting 2:8kg through VD with tears . March mama ported to February. BS coming soon

soonest:
2weeks ago @ 34weeks

completey:
Don't fret mama. Baby will still turn before or during labour. I had a baby that was tranverse till labour but he turned about an hour before delivery. Sit on Apoti to wash cloth, go on all fours or scrub the floor it also helps. Wishing you a safe landing with your cutie.

showerses:
My able Cappo thank you for checking on us.

I am having this pain in my VJ bone immediately after my lower abdomen it is worst anytime i am getting up from lying down or have the urge to pee no be small thing, abeg sabi mamas what is the cause because sometimes i walk as if my down below wants to fall off and again this baby has not turned yet oo hope there is still time

Liftedhands:
You still have a bit of time for baby to turn head down! But if labor starts whilst still in transverse? Na cs be that.

Just have an open mind and speak to your baby and God your heart desire.

Bomgirl:
I think 34 weeks still stands a chance. Keep praying and doing the exercises.
Mine didn't turn o he was frank breech! But my SIL's baby turned at 38 weeks from transverse to cephalic. Keep hope alive.

ElmaSpeed:
In that case, don't just watch. Pray. God gave you that baby. There's nothing He cannot do. While praying, talk to your child. Tell him or her to turn. It may sound silly, but nothing is impossible

ElmaSpeed:
Beautiful moms of Team March 2018.

4 weeks to our season.
It's funny cos it feels just like yesterday when we were sharing tips on how to survive morning sickness. Do we remember?
Two weeks from now, some of us will be due.

Team I-have-not-finished-shopping, please ensure you get your essentials (those things you and baby can't do without in the first few weeks).
Potential porters club, pack your bags and inform your support team (your husband or whoever you have chosen to go with you to hospital) of its exact location. Your baby may surprise you. My first baby did.

Oya everybody answer roll call.
If you have not submitted your edd (Fruitbae I'm looking at you), your fine is a pot of fish pepper soup. Present it here before we tell your baby to kick harder o!

kokozain, hope madam is doing great.

seconded,dat flask is bae.

curve:
I have used Gint for 5 years+ and still counting. The water stays hot for days.


Back in the days, they check for original flask by putting it in your ear to hear one hollow sound but that's not a guarantee anymore.



Anywhere you get it from, just tell them that you will test it and return it if the water does not stay hot for 3 days at least that was what I did and they agreed.



Another thing with flask is that the bottle can be changed. I sent someone to change one I had that slipped and got broken and she did it in Onitsha. Flask came back brand new and hot also.
