Ghennys:
My name was omitted ooo....
Edd (5th, 14th, 26th) sex XY
My able mamas what could be the cause for these huge differences in EDD? Dnt even know which one to follow

Lol, you are team Febuary o, not April. Itissettled is your captain. I and other mamas here have scattered EDD too, the more scans you do, the more far apart they become, they say the first scan is always the most reliable so that's what most of us use

CovenantBabies:
BIRTH ALERT !!! BIRTH ALERT!!! BIRTH ALERT!!!

What shall I render to the Lord for all He's done!
I'm now mother to a charming Prince!!!
He arrived via VD weighing 3.5kg.

Evening all,I'm a ftm and the nausea got me badly around 8th to 10week,relieved me for a week and now on again in week 13. I can't eat and then hours after I'm thrown up all I managed to take in. Its awful. I'm just wondering if its normal at 13 weeks.

Been reading your diary, congrats and happy bumping. With any luck the nausea would slowly start going away from this week, atleast that's when mine finally left me. What team are you

Welcome to the newest mama Roselok.
Any new mamas still lurking? Come and sign up now oh, we would not accept new members after week 35
Who has started their shopping
Who has finished their shopping.
Still no bump shot from anybody?
If I still haven't updated your baby gender and EDD, please remind me, maybe I forgot.
Congrats to team January for finally crawling out of our way, this was the slowest month ever. God bless all of you that have offloaded and your LOs.
May these last few months be the easiest months of this journey for us.

Rivers state

He's smart, Uni guys can steal, especially if he lives in the hostel, he even needs an iron backpack

ultimatebunmi1:
sorry I don't understand the meaning of ftmum

Lol, that's a mamas name here, she asked a question and I was tagging her to the answers. Ftm means first time mum tho.

Lettuuuuce

Uriel is such a snake, her diary room sessions wear me out.

They are all nominating the same people, did Tboss just nominate Miyonse?

sunbestie:
Any idea how much it cost? Is it stainless?

You mean the flask? She said it was 7500 as at December, I'm assuming it looks like the picture on the cover, not sure

hunniesuzie:
I heard molfix is very good. I know people who stopped buying imported Huggies cos of Molfix. My sister said it's better than US Pampers sef

As for cot, depends on your budget. I bought a Graco playard with bassinet and reversible napper and changer for 45k. Your LO can use the napper or bassinet till about 7kg then move to the bottom till he's tall enough to climb out. Can also double as a playpen. Check Amazon for reviews

Ftmum, now I'm just spamming. Hope this is enough, if it isn't, all your questions have been addressed severally in the thread, just use the search button or read back.

Rukkington:
@cappo Sixx, we are pushing o. Waddling has increased and my jajaina feel funny now. Don't even know how to explain it. I'm through with baby shopping, can't wait to meet her.
The baby cot is also ready, I will attach the pix

For mamas contemplating on the type of flask to buy, this flask is also very good. It will last for 3 days and the water will still be warm on the fourth day.

Congrats @oomiyale and ultimatebunmi1, may God bless your los. Thank you for giving me birthday mates

Team jan for swift delivery

Ftmum

Lol I don't mind sha. My gynea is so backward, he's calculating my due date with my lmp date and he told me I'm 29 weeks 3 days today, when I'm supposed to be atleast a week ahead of that according to first scan. I just give up, I'm not counting again

MizOmalicha:
Who else just saw Uriel's ass and her blue G-string

X-Ray vision

Bisola oo, I still can't stop crying while laughing, this must have been so painful for her yet so funny for me. Someone needs to grab a cane and flog coco ice out of the house, she just let Bisola's performance kill her spirit as if they came together, Mtcheew.

olamitie:
This my baby no gree open leg,na to buy unisex clothes, me don tire for scan self.must have done over 20 since i got pregnant

Sansa143:
Haba cappo,u wan dash me out for just zobo n ice cream?Now ur going to make me cry

Hahaha so now you don't want to go again because I am about to make profit on your head.

greatp80:
Sorry @ Giddyperson to quote you. Seeing your lmp reminded me of mine in 2016.My lmp was July 6 and i birthed my dd on April 10,even when scan said 7th and second one 14th. Pls give my dd birthday mate ooo. Wish you safe delivery dear.

Wow, my EDD from my very first scan is 10th yayyy. And that's the date I've been working with. I hope my date and yours keep going together. Subsequent scans said 16th and is it 14th. Thanks, are you currently on another journey or you are just keeping us company?

Enkaylala2:
Hi guys i have been peeping for, initially from the TTC thread but got my bpf Nov, edd is July ending, so honoured to be in your midst, our blessings shall be permanent IJN.

Welcome aboard, wishing you a smooth 9-months

dammyalabs:
Mother in the house,please help.Am expecting a baby ,my last period is jan6 and I had sex with my husband during my ovulation period .for past one week have been experiencing mattalic and bitter taste in my mouth and am feeling uncomfortable, all food is bitter and water in my mouth,have done home test twice is negative,I want to know if is pregnancy sign,thank you

It's still way too early to say. I'd say wait until you miss your period by like two days first then take the test again. My LMP was July 6th and I tested +ve on August 6th.

Biko where do you people buy maternity clothes in Lagos. I'm so tired of buying bigger size clothes every too weeks and outgrowing them as fast as lightening. I give up. I accept now that I am massively pregnant. Does anyone know any shop that's exclusively for pregnant women's clothes. I need clothes that can expand along with my belly and I need to buy them in one place cuz I don't have energy. Any ideas

Roselok:
Good morning mamas in the house,am new here.I'm team April,please my team members shd welcome me ooo. My edd April 3/6, XY.

Welcome aboard, how has the journey been so far. Hope you've registered for antenatal and how's that going. I'd include your name in the next roll call.

nicoleswizzi:
True my gynae also said so....me wey get multiple edd...from 31st march to April 10 to April 13th to April 15.... Lol na wa o

lol see how you just quickly embraced the only available March date. I foresee future porting, I'd be waiting for you

Congrats Sixx, God bless you and your lo.

sunbestie:
I don't need to drag it with her. I will jst buy her one bottle of zobo and d case is settled. Lolz

Please make it a big cup of Zobo flavored ice-cream from Hans and Rene, that stuff gives me life. In exchange I can hand over not just Sansa143, but Folamee too and any other teamies that have been hungrying to port.

On a more serious note, we were told at my antenatal class that majority of first time mums always get to or go past their due date, and I've noticed that in this thread too, so if you are a team April ftm, Berra calm down and stay where you are.
