Hi everyone, greetings. As a returnee mama who is a victim of accidental discharge, I dey hail. I was one of d 2014 MIHS mamas. So just found out i'll be a March 2017 mama again, with baby number 5! Kikikikikiki that's d Japanese laff I guess. Hmmmmm, na so I dey laff myself since inside this recession but I can't fit shout, d deed has been done, d morula has been swallowed. I was hoping to go back to Phoenix, but I read dat ship had sailed. I av seen LA, Chicago, Houston and the good old El paso is still viable. Dollar is not smiling at all, infact right now I no de do shakara say I no dey go person house o, free accommodation is bae! That not withstanding, if I see cheapo accommodation that comes with my freedom, i'll still consider. Goodnews is that I had already renewed my visa via dropbox for family vacation which has been cancelled by the way, Disneyland ko, Florida ni in this economy! Let it wait first let me secure somebody's future first! I will write letter of change of intent biko. I was not pregnant when I applied na. Abeg any March 2017 mama here? Come let's wear virtual bathroom slippers and look for cheapo package o. The Sabi mamas n papa's, the wizened Justwise I greet y'all specially. This search button is not friendly o. Abeg a little help with how to narrow it down, it searches d whole of nairaland! Thanks plentiful.

It's because she is a WOMAN! Their reasons are laughable! See pots calling a kettle black! I'm sure if the speaker was a man, a drunk, a Crack addict and a philandering LovePeddler like most Nigerian politicians are, that would be just fine. They can't stand taking orders from a woman! Shame on these primitive chauvinistic pigs! You all will pay and so will your generations after you for all your injustices as our supposed leaders.

May her soul RIP! She's indeed a hero! If she had let him out of that hospital, Nigeria wud av bn finished! Thank God! Thank u ma'am.

Lol!

U r lucky u av 10k a month! U better learn how to survive with it. Minimum wage is 18k in naija, n it's feeding a whole family! Some of d families still pay school fees n rent and some parents on minimum wage av undergraduates in school like u! U r very fortunate! There r a lot of useful suggestions for u here already, so deal with it. Face ur studies squarely so dat u can av a chance to change ur situation. Stay away from girlsssss whether end time or early time ooo

D thread says "mums: wud u consider an epidural?" that to me sounds more like a question, hence it shud be open to all manner of opinions. However d OP had made it clear from her opening statement dat she's clearly not ready for counter opinions against epidural! This looks more like a pro-epidural thread n if u dare disagree, ur head will be chopped! I clearly have counter opinions, so i'll save myself d trouble. All in all what we wish for is a healthy mama n baby. How u chose to achieve this is entirely up to u. So pls let's be less judgemental n more open-minded. Peace.

Yay! Congrats Dinawe n Wunmi ooo! God is faithful!

Chei! I no fit shout PetMe13! Damn! These guys r crazy! What da heck! Naija leaders they r soaking ur cane in kerosene! D thunder dat will fire u all dey do press up! Aw these clowns tek pass us na! Chei! I wan madt!

At my POE I even cut line sef n I went in and sat down while odas were standing! Wen d officer saw me n asked y I was seating I simply told him i'm pregnant n I was feeling faint n tired after d long flight. He was visibly shocked by d way, n probably knew I wasn't in d mood too.

They get intimidated by d cash I swear! I heard them talking to themselves about money n more money coming in becos on dat line there where about 5 of us Nigerians who were there solely to declare cash over 10k.

The rascism too much o! See their big heads! Some idiot dat ordinary wud not even av opportunity to smell ur perfume from afar wud av d audacity to insult u!

Pls ladies hold ur heads up with this clowns, many of them r not better than u! Na just condition mek crayfish bend. Always have dat at d back of ur mind.

Congrats Lizcom25! All glory to a faithful God!

Imo007 wat a sad sad tale. Firstly a 4th degree tear! R u kidding me? Aw do u deliver a 3.5kg baby n sustain a 4TH DEGREE tear! Even a midwifery student knows about guarding d perineum or an episiotomy! I seriously av had reason to question d competence of these oyibo healthworkers in the course of my encounter with them, but then again I want to see finish! Then for u to have retained placenta n u r now paying for it! From my experience, those who know what they are doing meticulously trace d placenta to make sure that all the membranes are complete talkless of leaving a part of the placenta behind! Whoever took ur deliver is incompetent! Pls we need d names of these people! I av also asked Bomly for her nurse too. Pls mommas endeavour to know their names n who to hold responsible! The truth is that racism is real! Forget d fake smiles they always have plastered on their faces! They don't like us! I am so upset with this story becos it merits medical litigation! Did u ever threaten to sue the hospital? This is plain wrong! So wrong!

Ocman aka heart2heart! Dats just wrong! So disheartening!

Congrats Bomly! Ha wats appuns in this our awoof hospital ooo? Pls speak up mek I know who to free d igbati abeg! #fuming seriously ooo

Oh Lawwwwwddddddd! Una no be am at all!

I no fit laff oooo! Una no go wound person with laff I swear! So me wey pay 300k on top d 95k suppose just cry blood na! It's a gud one sha but completely useless to me n my family! Them for extend am to April atleast. Then d kids will be out of school.

Lol! Tvegas u funny die! Abeg Bloggerina n Raii, ice water abeg.

Phema:
So, you were able to get Dr's appointment for today? That was fast. Give us update when you're done with them.
Have you hooked up with some Extended stay mamas now?

D Doctor's appointment went smoothly. Was given one elderly attending like dat. Took his time n was meticulous. Did lots of lab tests n got my prenatal vitamins. Scheduled for a scan next wk n anoda Dr's appointment. Met a naija lady at d hosp. Says she's here at extended stay n there r 3 other naija preggies around too. Will look her up later. Just so tired, I went baby shopping from clinic n i'm feeling dizzy mehn!

Also dat Monterra apartment is really close to d hosp, closer than Ocotillo village which is inturn closer than extended stay, east oak. Monterra also looks nicer too. U can actually walk into d clinic from Monterra. But personally prefer ESA, east oak. Closer to shopping malls.

So I had my appointment with financial yesterday. Got d old package of $2,888. D sweet part is dat I can use d 250 rebate for my son's circumcision n just add $10. Circumcision costs $260! So in effect d whole thing is $2638! Adonbilivit! Lol! D staff r nice too! This is gonna be good! So I av doctors appointment today (someone just cancelled!). Let me see aw dat goes too. I better get d baby shopping over with becos I av a feeling this baby is gonna come earlier than EDD so dat I can get back home ASAP!

Chei Ladies una too much! I don laff tire. Abeg tell d MIHS mama to show some love here jare! These elpaso folks be robbing it in our faces too much (beefing mode activated! Lol)

@Raii: I paid $1,082 for 1mth plus $100 deposit in case of damages. It's abt 7min to d hosp from google maps

@MadameU: thank u jare, I no get choice. I'll stay put atleast till it expires

@Heart2heart: I dey wait ur arrival

@Nita2013: shei if she bn don welcome me I for don prepare better peppersoup keep for am now na! Anyway congrats to her, looking forward to meeting her n d baby.

@Phema: thx sis! U too do waka come, I dey wait u!

Ro2014:
There are at least 2 Nigerian mummies there that I know of and I will be there next week also

Ok but they r not on this forum I guess. Also I noticed u just registered on NL. Ok ooo

Mabels, VBAC means VVaginal Birth After C/S! U did not av a C/S! Maybe an exploratory laparotomy for d ruptured ectopic. I'm sure nobody touched ur uterus, just d tubes. So NO! U will have a NORMAL VVAGINAL delivery or a C/S if there is an indication for that. Hope this answers ur question.

Twizzie I paid for 1month o n it's non-refundable! E don bizzle on me big time! I neva imagined i'll be all alone o! This crossland people do me strong thing! Anyway God dey. D place is actually very nice, I just walk into d malls for all d shopping. They av Burlington baby depot, walmart, target, Ross, Costco etc just a walk-in distance n d hospital is about 7min with cab. I like it, just loneliness datzall. Let's see aw it goes.

Abeg Phoenix mamas na only me waka come this extended stay east oak? no be so we bn talk am ooo! Shuuuu not even a single soul! Completely OYO! Me no likey!

GenoMi pls think well before u tek dat risk ooo! Pls do d right thing so dat u don't get stressed up. I had some confidence becos of my body type. Even my own mother doesn't know i'm pregnant. At work my boss was surprised wen I went to submit my maternity leave form. My babies usually come as a surprise to many. So pls think am well dear.

Wedon, well done! R u done?

GenoMi i'm not showing dat much, so it wasn't an issue.
