I Pray so cos someone was telling if u were induced for ur first child, it's likely u are induce for every other delivery but am praying against that o......Enjoy ur dark neck o, it will blend after delivery

This is a wrong assertion,though I was induced for my two kids

Hi, I am 15weeks gone, but my doctor only prescribes vitamin c, folic acid and ferrous for my daily use. I asked him about any other prescription of drugs, he would always say there is no need for that.
Whereas my friend that uses general hospital, her doctor prescribes more than those drugs for her.
My question is_hope I am safe and doing well.

It's ok o, you are doing well. Me can't even keep any drug down not even folic. This has been my own story in all my pregnancies.

May mama 2021 ,anyone still here? I'm back on third journey o also May

Opsycal:

Thank you

Hope I'm not too late �. I'm interested. Hello mamas I'm back on third journey, who remembers me last year��

FloraEC:
My kids all have it. It doesn't disturb them so I'm not bothered

Wow. God bless you my first ever cappo

I discovered that my 1 month old baby navel is getting a little bigger. I googled it ,it says it umbilical hernia and that it's very common and go away on it own before baby reach 6 months or 1 year. I want to know if other mamas have experienced this because I'm worried and thinking of taking him to hospital tomorrow. There is no discomfort it pain whatsoever

Dear Mama's, since 3 days I have been experiencing malaria symptoms and contractions at 34wks and 3days. I refused all advances by DH and my people to go to the hospital to have LO myself checked. Around 1pm yesterday, it got worse and I started feeling feverish and since I was at my family's house, my mom forcefully called a nurse close to the house to check me. She gave me antimalaria drugs (3 tabs) with paracetamol because I am pregnant. I told her about the contractions and she checked if my cervix was dilated or getting ready for labour (so painful cos I struggled and she didn't use lubrication ). She said it was just preparations by my baby and I wasn't in labour yet. After she left, I started feeling strong contractions which I knew something went wrong from the check. I beared and this morning I felt better, no more temperature or fever till past 7pm whoo. A tingling sharp pain appeared in my left hip close to my waist, then the fever thing started again. I couldn't bear the pains and by past 10, we left for the hospital and I was checked by the Dr and he said, it wasn't labour, it was false contractions and I had to be admitted and given drip with injections and Tablets. Fast forward to 2 hrs later when my mom and little sis had gone home, I had to pee. DH took me to the restroom and on the 2nd trip I tripped and fell on the bathroom floor with my upper back hitting the tiled floor edge of the restroom so hard, the drip needle came out of my hand and blood came gushing. The nurse ran in, she and DH got me up and the drip was reset. Baby has started kicking again, I know she is fine in Jesus name. My due date is June 28th. Please Mamas and daddys pray for me and my lo. I'm still in the hospital currently on the drip. Feeling dizzy just wanted to update y'all.

You and lo will be fine by his grace

OyinNurse:
Yeah, it's painful. The anesthesiologist applies a numbing agent to the site so that you feel a lot of pressure with no sharp pain. But mehn, that pressure is much. I always have issues with it because of the anatomy of my back and this last pregnancy had to have General when they tried and failed to get spinal in. It was quite horrendous

Different people different experience

Twinmommy:
I can't say that it is very painful. For my Cerclage, they shook me the long Needle over 5 times without success before they gave up and used small General Anaesthesia.

I also learned that some Anesthesiologists will first give you a small injection on the needle site (feels like a pinch) to numb the area before going in with the big needle.

Wow

Kinado:
No! Wen i was admistered i was injected twice just felt a sharp jolt at my leg twice

Wow. OK ma

mydreams25:
Sorry to hijack your question, but from my experience the spinal anaesthesia isn't painful I didn't even know it was a long needle that was used not until my Dh told me. Maybe because I already made up my mind that pain is inevitable whether for CS or Virginia birth. I felt the needle at the first pinch but it wasn't painful.

Ok thank you ma

busybeei5:
It is painful but nothing compared to labour pains

Wow...everything relating to childbirth is sha painful

Allilape:
I had my baby turned from breech at 38weeks while the scan was reading 40weeks,though the doctor actually said if I were a first timer,he wouldn't have done the external cephalic version, and should the baby change back to breech,that he will turn her to cephalic when I've dilated to about 6cm and have the water broken so as not to allow her change position.

Was this done in Nigeria?

Twinmommy:
It's like you're my neighbour this one you mentioned Subol . I have no idea of cost.

A preggie Mama I met there recently said she had 1 CS delivery there and the service was great, no issues which is what brought her back even though she has relocated out of the area. They helped her take care of baby till she was good to go. Her stay wasn't up to a week. But her CS was done using General Anaesthesia. When I asked, she didn't know why they didn't use Spinal. She doesn't even know that Spinal exist so I don't know if they just used it for her or they couldn't find the space to put in the Spinal block. I know they use Spinal for surgeries there cos I have an experience of 2 Surgeries there done with Spinal Anaesthesia.

As for their Charges, no idea, she had her CS under HMO. But maybe one can call and find out. At least estimates. I didn't really bother cos if I make up my mind to birth there, it will be under HMO.

My able Cappo! Hope you are LO are doing great! Happy Weekend.

Please is administering spinal anaesthesia painful? Just inquisitive and would like to know because some are saying the long needle hurts .

Congrats to all mamas that gave birth, I thank God that it ended in praise for everyone.
indian03, momadura, Rockstarr, these are the names I remember. Your BS is quite interesting, I am happy for all of you.

Other may mamas that are yet to deliver I pray for smooth delivery for all you.
It shall end in praise

Thank you mama. I wish you safe delivery and all preggy women out there

MomoAdura:
How's our prince mama?

Alhamdullilah ma. Hope your baby is doing well too?

AbbynHummy:
I'll advice you get the electric. Manual has never worked for me. When I gave birth to my first child, a friend of mine bought a cheap manual breast pump for just 200# and the milk was rushed like tap whenever she was expressing.

Ok thank you ma

The manual breast pump I bought only worked twice..ive tried it several times again it's not working. I don't know if electric pump will work well cos I've never used hreast pump before. And I can't wait 3 weeks for breast pump to arrive if I order now from china because I'm in pain.my breasts are engorged and I'm having fever with cold and headache as the baby is not sucking all.
Pls help with suggestion. The suction on the breast pump is not holding my breasts so I'm thinking maybe cos the breast is soft and sag now. . My baby is not upto 3 weeks yet

B.S! (Birth Story)

I already shared my pre pregnancy journey with the house. So I would go straight to my labour experience.
I had been seeing mucus since I clocked 36 weeks but since I googled & saw that one can start seeing Mucus weeks before labour, I relaxed my mind and decided to go with the flow
I went for my ANC on Friday morning which was on the 23rd of April, 2021. After my appointment, I followed a friend to window shop for her baby things. On getting home I noticed a brown sticky discharge like mucus I knew it was the mucus plug but since there was no water I relaxed.

Later in the evening, while preparing for iftar, I noticed a bang sound in my vj after which water followed. I called hubby who wasn't around, he came & we headed to the hospital at about past 9.
I was checked and was told I was 3cm. I was placed in the labour ward, at first I was timing the contractions but my fellow belleful mamas, it got to a time I dumped my phone and held the bed at every contraction.

At about 12:30, the urge to push came, and the nurses were surprised like I was lieing, I was checked and confirmed to be full. I was told to walk to the labour room, which was were the real deal was.
I couldn't push oooo... the matron abused me tire, that I'm not a first timer why can't I push. She no know say pregnancy no know customer.

At about few minutes to 1 o'clock, I pushed and my prince came out screaming out loud. The tear I got was not from this planet, and the matron said it's because I didn't cooperate.
Thankful for life and the new born.
May God make it easy for everyone.
