Congratulations to @Fisayomi1, 1stymom and AbleGodDidIt. May your joy be permanent

Amen. Thanks mama

1stymom:
I am so sorry this is coming late due to some minor issues I had at the hospital... My baby girl made her way to this Earth on August 29th via ELCS weighing 3.2kg. Cappo na so I take port to August at 39weeks though I tried waiting till Sept. My B.S may take time to be submitted but surely I will do the needful...

Congratulations mama

My BS!
Hmm, when I say this child is a testimony, believe me..
This is my third baby, I have a boy and girl 7yrs & 6yrs respectively and the gap between them and this child is neither accidental nor planned! Life happened.
I started planning for 3rd missionary journey when my daughter was less than 2 years old, it took 4 good years complete (Dec, 2017 till Dec, 2021) to find out I was pregnant. If you check my earliest post on this moniker, it was my testimony on TTC thread.
This child was conceived when I had almost given up and decided to face other things and a lot of things just fell in place at the same time.
First trimester was war, I was sick everyday, spitting couldn't eat anything but peppersoup (with uda o, if I don't add uda it won't taste well, so I added in moderation) and Nescafé 3 in 1coffee.
Second trimester was so much better but unfortunately my spitting did not stop but at least I slayed small and libido was a bit high, chai!
Third trimester, tiredness, heaviness everything but I still tried to look good and had small libido until around 35weeks when if I see d..k sef I feel like slapping oga.
From 36 weeks, it became a battle just to stand up, I hated being pregnant at this point o (God forgive me), I appreciated the gift, but everything about being pregnant was just not going well with me again from that time.
My midwife checked me at my 38 +4 appt, after asking some questions, I told her my baby was a bit slow as his movements had reduced a bit, hmm oyibo no dey take chances o, in no time I was at maternity assessment unit, next thing doc said you will be induced.
Go to Delivery suite tomorrow 9am.
9am tuesday I was there.
Pessary was started around 11am, nothing happened. 2nd pessary inserted by 5pm and by 11pm it had worked small so they broke my water and I started contracting.
I had already signed birth plan, and pain relief before this time and I requested for epidural, because the pain I felt in the other two pregnancies scarred me for life. They said the anesthesiologist was in theater and gave me gas to start with.
The gas wasn't helping, soon the epidural guy came, set up the stuff, put their needles etc in my back and told me after 30mins i won't feel anymore pain! E no work!
Me and hubby were discouraged, labour wasn't progressing and they wanted to give me syntocin drip. I told hubby I won't take that drip without epidural, I can't go through that pain of that level of induction again.
As God will have it, that anaesthesiologist went home and another one came, this time a young lady, immediately I saw her my spirit calmed down, I was willing to try again and this time it worked.
You need to see me cruising hot drip without an ounce of pain, I was seeing contractions on the monitor but no pain, I even slept off till I was 9cm dilated.
9cm dilated, baby was still high up, not coming down not getting to 10cm.
They said they will try for me to push, baby refused to come down and his heart rate was going down with every contraction but coming back up again after the contraction, everything was clear on the monitor and they were worried why it was happening.
Doc came and gave us 2 options.
1, assisted delivery with forceps and/ or suction cups
2, CS
We gave consent for CS cos even the forceps delivery many times damage babies shoulder and still ends in CS. Turns out cord was wrapped twice around his neck, that's why he couldn't descend and using forceps to pull him out would have been disastrous but Mercy said No!
My baby was brought out crying loud like town crier weighing 3.41kg, healthy with plenty hair. 17th August, my favourite niece's birthday mate too
Indeed, God has done me well, and I am grateful.

Amazing God. Thank God for his leading. Congratulations Cappo

[/b]My Birth Story[b]
I didn't know I was pregnant until the pregnancy was 3months and it was mixed feelings for me because my 2nd child was just 1yr 6months, we just relocated to a new state with my hubby not very much around and without help plus I had plans of focusing on career. I was less than a year on my job and felt the pregnancy would halt a lot of plans.
I went for my first scan at 5months and while doing the scan the sonographer started asking me what symptoms I have had seen I got pregnant and if I have been seeing blood. Told her the journey has been symptomless and I have not had any bleeding episode. Got the scan report and it said there was 'no head seen and advised to do an evacuation if the pregnancy doesn't abort itself after 2weeks'. I was devastated and sad how that will happen after I have grown to love the baby in my womb. I cried and started asking for forgiveness from God for not receiving the gift with joy at first. Hubby encouraged me and we afterward decided to keep trusting God for a miracle and go for another scan in another diagnostic centre.

We went to another centre when the pregnancy was 6months and no abnormality was found. We were delighted and grateful and then decided to register for antenatal at a state hospital in our base. Did all the necessary tests and on my 3rd antenatal visit while I was waiting to see the doctor I noticed that my blood test result started that I was O negative instead of A positive. I had to call the lab technician's attention to it, the senior technician had to repeat the test and it was discovered that the previous result was a wrong one.

These experiences fuelled our decision to travel down to give birth at the hospital where I had the last two CS procedures in our previous location. At my first meeting with the consultant (which was around 34weeks) I was booked to come for CS by the 37th week, the doctor instructed that I come in on Tuesday after which I will be put on admission on Wednesday against the procedure on thursday.

By Monday, 18th of July I started having cold feet about having the CS that thursday as my baby will just be 37weeks that day but then arrangements have been made for the person that will stay with the kids and she was already around so I had to brace up and go ahead with the existing plan though with a lot of fear and what ifs.

I travelled down on Wednesday, got admitted and on thursday 21st July, 2022, I was wheeled to the theatre where I was given the spinal anesthesia so I was basically awake though numb from my waist down to my legs and engaging in active discussion with my doctor throughout the session.

To the glory of God, our baby was brought out after some time and I was asked to identify her after which she was taken away. The surgeon used the dissolvable stitches for me so I wouldn't have to go back to another hospital for the removal when we get back to our base as we planned travelling back immediately we were discharged.
.
I was wheeled back to the maternity room and na there the discomfort start. I was numb from my waist downward that I couldn't feel my legs but I was experiencing serious pain around the incision site, my baby girl was brought to me and at that point I was filled with joy and gratitude to God for the testimony and for taking my fears away.
We were discharged on the 4th day and we travelled back to base that same day. The big sisters were excited and they both carried the new baby. We are 6weeks now and to the glory of God we are all doing great.

Happy new month my dear Teamies, it's almost time to meet our beloved bundles of joy, so let us remember that this is the time to tidy up hospital bag, and other shopping, time to begin washing and ironing ( I know some of us are done with that).

This is also time to be prayerful, you might find out that temptations are more these days, hubby want to upset u, family bringing one leg or the other, different thoughts running through your mind but all these are distractions because our blessings are near so let us not give in but commit to prayer and Thanksgiving and all will be well.

Babes leave people and what they will say. They will never stop talking.
If the tummy goes down now in the first week, they will say you are an ogbanje sucking your own blood.
You are just 3weeks post delivery. It took your tummy 9 months to grow, give it time to heal and don't go doing funny funny things to make it come down within a flash cos everyone telling you your tummy is big has one solution or the other....
Remember your LO needs you more than these people.

Team Easy pregnancy, Safe and Quick delivery.

Happy new month once again mama's wishing us all the best of this new month.

Thank God for seeing us through to this point, I know it's not that easy as the weight is now being felt . Most of us have entered third trimester this week, it's time to start completing our baby shopping, hospital lists and other things we need to do. No time again o, time to tidy up. In just two short months we will carry our joyful bundles.

If you've not taken maternity shots, this is the best period to do it, now the bump is big enough but still cute enough for pics and for those of us that pregnancy turns dark, please don't wait till 9months o .

Time to be prayerful, committing that day into God's hands for a stress-free remaining part of the journey and delivery. Supernatural childbirth book is one very resourceful book for this period, please if you can, download it and begin to use the prayers at the end part of the book.

If you don't have the book and need it, just mention me and drop your email I have the soft copy now, I can send to you.

BS! BS! BS!

I gave birth to my first child through CS because of placenta previa and for the second journey I was in between deciding for VBAC or CS with a whole lot of relatives pressurizing me for VBAC. Meanwhile DH wasn't around for the better part of this second journey and was only going to be available for about 2wks in the month of August with his pass ending on the 19th of August.

I woke up on the 12th of August with a strong urge to register at a private hospital as a backup for the general hospital I registered at as the general hospital said they don't do CS during the night or at weekend and will have to refer if their is need for one.

I visited the private hospital and got registered. On my way back home I decided to visit a scan centre to see how the baby is fairing at 37weeks. The scan results showed that the amniotic fluid was very low and I took the result to the general hospital I registered at only to be told that we will have to undergo an emergency CS immediately. Hubby was told to go pick up our delivery items and by the time he was back our baby has been delivered.

Spent 3 days at the hospital and we were discharged afterwards. At the end of the day, our baby came to time as Daddy was able to witness her birth and also be a part of the Christening ceremony which was my concern at first all to the glory of God who is the master planner and knows the end of a thing from the beginning.

Mummy is doing great and our little angel is doing fine too with the big sister hovering all around her and pecking her at every given opportunity.
