God forbid what if after ur 3 years wait d cyst reoccured and d other ovary is to b removed? God forbid.


Don't b depressed darling... After all u both want 3... So have this one and rest.. It's a blessing dearie... It's a blessing





BUT IF YOUR DR DOESNT THINK YOUR BODY CAN HANDLE IT.... HE KNOWS WHAT TO DO.

TALK TO YOUR DR. ASAP

Forget I'm a Medical Dr o.
I registered for ANC(not where I work) at 8weeks (Yes 8weeks)
I had every form of morning sickness.
I attended the lectures... Some statements were outrightly funny lol... But I attended and listened. A midwife is a midwife... I don't joke with them (they can b a pain when u tell them A nd they do B or when their shift is almost over lol)

I know When u come for ANC they just send u to any Dr.
But in my own case, one of the Dr's is always in a hurry. So henceforth from my next ANC I decided d Dr I wanted to see. (No offence to nurses here but I know nurses can very nasty when u annoy them or when it seem like u wanna decide for them.) but me I sparked for the nurse o Hmmm.. When I know na me dey carry d belle no b her... Abeg e...
So for every of my ANC visits(which my DH is sometimes present) I was seeing the same Dr... I had his number... In short we became friends. My DH had his own questions which were all adequately answered.

I know as a Dr u wldnt expect me to have questions.... Treating someone is very different from treating urself. If I wanted only ANC drugs I wldnt av registered. I knew the answers to the questions I had... But I asked it anyway.. Oh yes I did.

So my point is...
People can only give u answers here based on their personal experience which is subjective.
But ur Dr is the person who will give u an objective answer. If u doubt ur Dr, seek the opinion of another Dr.

U have paid for ur ANC... Asking questions is ur Damn right... U have paid for that service.
Me I tell my patients to write down The questions in a jotter as they come.
I learned that from my consultant his patients had ANC JOTTERS. They wrote when dey were given drugs, injection and even questions. And also when dey noticed the baby's kick etc.

This is a wonderful forum.... I'm addicted to it sef. So I'm not saying don't ask questions here... But there r some questions best answered by ur Dr.

Like tatacherie said it feels good to know other people are experiencing what u r experiencing.

pragmatistm:
Still expecting your response oo all sabi mamas.
I noticed a lot of people and me sef ain't so comfy with drug related questions asked here... Or a Dr prescribes drugs to u and u want a second opinion from other people who ain't Dr's, or a nurse tells u A but becos another woman did B u decide to ignore A and do B.... That's why I ignore them. Pls no offense to anyone.

Reason is this
Ur ANC Dr is in a better position than any of us to prescribe d right drugs to you.. because he or she will examine you, see you, understand you etc.

What worked for A might not work for B.

Prenatal stories might sound d same but one tiny detail can b d deciding factor on choice of drugs or care.

Registering for ANC isn't for bcom and folic acid alone... It's for discussing how u feel with ur Dr. Ur Dr who is seeing u is in a better position than any of us here. ANC isn't free Abeg. Me I advocate that u av ur gyneas number sef. Especially if u r high risk.

Show and mucus plug is d same thing.

I know some are told it's blood stained... The actual color is pink.
It's comes out bits by bits or it comes out at once... Different for everyone. Sign of early stage of labor... Some experience water breaking after this, others don't(theirs get ruptured in d Hospital) and the some experience the urge to go to d toilet meaning the head don dey descend.

Not every one experiences terrible pain and vice versa. While it's not everyone that has short or long first stage of labor. Some 12 hrs it less others 24 hrs. Some don't even know they are in labour...


Monitor ur own body

Stadora what u described is show. Monitor ur body.
Kendrallmai ur pikin don dey poop o. But I'm sure u r at d Hospital... So make i no talk further
