Ok.. now I understand. It’s the same with mine that is also 5 years but my BRP has spousal Leave To Enter.. not Leave to Remain.

Thanks so much for explaining. She will wait 5 years till she gets her ILR then.

I think your BRP will state leave to enter if you are coming in to the UK for the first time. However, if you renew within the UK, it will have Leave to remain on it. At least, that’s what I noticed with mine.

Good evening experienced mamas in the house. I gave birth via cs on Monday and my child had to bottle fed with formula . But I’ve been trying to put him on my breast for 2 days now and he keeps rejecting my breast . I just end up giving him formula. Now my breast are so full and hard and very painful. It’s even leaking. But still he won’t suck. I really want to breastfeed him. What can I do. I tried pumping with electric bottle pump
Today but that thing is too slow . I need your expertise please


Haaa..... teamie, this was my exact situation yesterday night that I had to wake up and order a breast pump online. Thankfully, the swelling reduced this morning and the pain went away.

I wore a good supportive bra which I haven’t taken off except when I am going to bath and baby has been sucking as much as she can too.

I also massaged both breast with warm soapy water in circular motion when I was having my bath.

I don’t know if any of these was what helped as I am also a FTM

Other moms with experience will come in soon

Sorry, hang in there.... cos I totally understand the pain as I went through same which is only subsiding today

We are ready o. I’ve been having this Menstrual cramp like pain since last night. It comes and goes . And I keep getting this discharge that’s off pink since Wednesday. I was at the hospital on Wednesday but after being checked, they said I wasn’t in Labour. I’m really not comfortable anymore. My edd is nov 4/6 though. So I’m just hoping . I don’t want to go to the hospital and they send me back home. I don’t even know what type of pain I’m supposed to expect. Although when the doctor checked me he said my cervix is still closed but a bit soft. Whatever that means. If I don’t go into Labour this new week we are entering , I’m telling the doctor to induce me by Friday on the 8th coz I’m officially tired and ready to sign out . The cramps are really painful when they come but I can still manage them. My next appointment is on Monday nov 4 so I’ll wait till then. I also feel as though I’m leaking water. I really don’t know to be honest


Hi Mama... you might need to insert a pad to monitor if you are leaking water.... you should be checking how quickly the pad gets wet, the smell and the colour. If indeed you are leaking water, please head to the hospital cos it means your membrane has ruptured so you will need to be monitored and if Labour does not kick in properly, they might have to induce cos of risk of infection to baby.

NB: don’t discard the pad, take it with you to the hospital cos that’s your only proof of water leakage and that’s part of what they need to decide on your management

Good morning beautiful people! God did it completely for my wife @Mbliz and my humble self yesterday. Our Beautiful princess Bernice made her grand enterance at exactly 5:58 pm yesterday. Her due date was between 11th and 19th November. We didnt see this coming! No active labour sign. When i noticed the contraction timing, i said to my wife its time! But she thought it was the usual false labour. She delivered successfully after 5 minutes of arriving at the hospital. She and Bernice are doing fine. I use my wife as a point of contact to every expectant mother that God will do it for you all. He will make it easy and there shall be no loss. And for everyone believing God for the fruit of the womb, keep faith and believe in God and God only! He will do yours at the appointed time. To November cappo, @jennyluv! Weldone and good job. I just did the birth announcement on behalf of my wife she will post the BS in a shortwhile. Thankyou! Thank you!!!




Congratulations to you and wifey
Glory to God for a successful 9months
mbliz has opened the floor for we November mamas
Extend our love to her and the little one

Oh.. sorry about the ulcer, please stay away from pineapple if it will aggravate it.

I hear raspberry tea helps and of course lots of other room activities. Over all, labour will start when baby is ready

To God be the glory I gave birth on 18th October to a boy tru emergency cs.

October mums take note.

BS.

This pregnancy wasn't easy my edd was 11th.I had contractions for Luke 2,days on Tuesday I went to hospital they checked n said 2cm n am contracting I was admitted.

In d night I was given penta injection n I vomitted from 1am to morning I complained no one listened until I started feeling dizzy. God used the morning shift nurse to save me. She gave me drip n I started feeling better.

My ppl after that I was inserted with Mesop tab n the.contraction started in earnest from 3am wed till throughout Thursday. I lost strength. Later they gave me hit injection after checking it was 5cm. My ppl for almost 24hrs I stopped at 5cm but contraction was like 30secs.

I cried n wept n begged for cs. Just becis of their nonsense scheme at OBIO cottage they refused to book me for sc n said I shld pay deposit of 150k despite am on scheme. I paid n they wheeled me to theater n delivered my baby by 2am on Friday.

Hmmmmmm I hang boot 2is OK for.

Pls I want to take up the case against the hospital cos I see no benefit for d scheme. Becis of the prolonged labor my baby had issue n was taken to scibu. And I have to spend extra #50k for baby. Is it fair.

Meaning if I didn't raise d money then maybe both I n baby wouldn't make it.

In all thank God with me.
Still in hospital recuperating.

Other mothers don't fear pray n believe in God my case.is different.cos its.not ordinary.

God will see us through.


Congratulations and thank God all things went well and ended in praise eventually.


About taking up the case, did you read the terms of the scheme? Does it say that it covers CS in the event that a mother requires it

Mothers in the house, I greet o.

Pls join me thank God as hubby and I welcomed our son almost two weeks ago now. First issue and his conception was a miracle.

Pls mamas, I'm worried about the tear I received, being a first time mum and being that my baby was too big 4kg I received a tear down to my anus, ..in fact I received both vagina tear and the tear down to my anus .

Which brings me to my worries, its been almost two weeks and the tear/skin down to my anus has not started gluing back together. I'm healing and feeling less pain, .and the stitches have almost completely come off but that line down to my anus is still very much open.

Has anyone had this type of tear before? ..when can I expect it to glue back together? Does it ever glue back together? I'm just scared!

Pls oooo anyone?

Sounds like a 3rd degree tear.... should have been repaired/sutured. You might wanna go back there and report so it doesn’t heal like that.

I plan to check on YouTube for exercises myself. I did see one that had tons of positive feedback as to how it probably helped in kick starting labour. I will watch it first to be sure that I can do it before I start. I am also hoping to go on a very long walk as my body permits.

Eventually, babies will come when they are ready!
