Nairaland keeps banning me oo since 2 days ago I've been trying to post the rest BS

BS! BS! BS
PART ONE (PREGNANCY JOURNEY)

I got pregnant immediately I wanted to . My first baby turned 2 in August and I tested positive in late August. My last period was July 29, I started planning Immediately and has sex everyday and my next period didn't come. I was so sure I would get pregnant (by Allah's grace).
Hmmm testing positive was so easy but carrying the PREGNANCY was not. I started having morning sickness, spitting, weakness, no appetite coupled with ulcer the next day. I had to go to my mum's to stay with her for 4 months. I took my daughter along cos she couldn't stay without me. Those 4 months was hell!. I cried most times. I took drips twice...I took injections from 4 different hospitals yet I was not better. Vomiting /nausea, spitting., weakness and loss of appetite was my constant pain. It made my ulcer worst. There was a time I was shaking uncontrollably for like 30 minutes..I thought I was going to die. Remembering those days scares me so much . I couldn't take any drugs. Yes, throughout my pregnancy I only took fansidar once when I was 35 weeks. I didn't take folic, or vitamin c or any other drugs...thinking about them makes me throw up..holding them in hand makes me miserable for days. I love injections, my mother drove me to hospital everyday for weeks to take injections yet I never improved. To bathe I had to sit down..I couldn't stand up to bathe. At 12weeks I thought I would be better NO...I started getting better around 18 weeks...I mean the vomiting reduced..thats all. But till I give birth, nausea, heartburn, weakness abd a lot of spitting stayed with Me. I was always with Gasco yet it only temporary relieve. The only food I could eat was semo and ugwu...well jollof rice too but not all d time. I ate ugwu almost everyday till I give birth.. no other vegetables...I couldn't stomach some fruits but because I did not take any single prenatals I tried to take mango, grapes, pineapples once in a while. Oh God this pregnancy showed me shege. God bless my hubby for me. After 4 months I came back to lagos. He has always been d one doing d cooking and taking care of our daughter and house chores. If I perceive aroma...I will b miserable so he cooked for me throughout the pregnancy. The only water I could take was ice water. If the water does not have little ice I will vomit...throughout the pregnancy..its only chilled water I could take. I could not even wash plates or bathe my daughter...I was constantly weak and emotional. I started craving for fine sands around 35 weeks...it was so high but my hubby always monitored me to resist it. My pregnancy journey was no fun at all. Walking became difficult when I Was heavy...my hubby always carry me up from bed honestly cos the discomfort was much. At times I feel faint too. I always pray to God to let my baby be alright because I didn't take any drugs not that I didn't want but I just couldn't...I feel sad and cry whenever I see a pregnant woman drinking normal water especially when I see them taking it with drugs. I would he like God why me? Why can't I take drugs?.
When I was 36 weeks my BP was 125/80 . My BP has never exceeded 120 before infavt it has always been low. I asked doctor and he said its normal..I had traces of protein too he said its normal. That was the last antenatal I did in lagos. My hubby and I travelled to abeokuta to give birth there. I wanted to use oba ademola hospital. I went there thrice they were on strike. A week has already wasted and I was not ok with the fact that my vitals couldn't be checked for a week. I went to lantoro hospital in abeokuta but honestly I hate their toilet (lol). The place is old. I always prefer cleaned new hospital(I wish). Then I just summoned courage and told hubby to let us use private hospital. The gynecologist there is also the director of oba ademola hospital which is a government hospital. It was Wednesday then...I was exactly 38 weeks 1 day. I went to do scan and scan gave me 39 weeks 5 days and that my baby weight was 3.84kg. I was not happy so that day we saw the doctor abd I registered for antenatal even though they just collected my money cos what antenatal at 38 weeks plus

B.S

On the 12th of April of April , In the morning my husband asked me while we were gisting when I will go for my pregnancy photo shoot but I wasn’t interested. He was like “I just dey laugh you....baby will come next week”. I was like are you a prophet? ,Anyways I prepared my photoshoot dress on Wednesday (cos I am tailor) and we went for the shoot on Thursday. After the shoot I prepared and left for my parent’s cos of the proximity to the hospital (it a 10 minutes drive from their house to the hospital and a 40 /1 hour drive from my house). Fast forward to Tuesday night of the next week being 20th April, hubby and I spoke on phone and he kept repeating that I would give birth on Wednesday being 21st and I was laughing...I told him “it’s tomorrow I will know if God has called you or not”. He laughed!
In the mid night I had a rumbling stomach so I went to poo and I urinated frequently than normal. Early that morning as soon as day broke, I had the urgent feeling to pee, lo and behold as soon as I stood up from the bed to go to the bathroom I felt a gush of water coming out of my V when I checked the ground I saw that it was a bit slimy and I saw a spot of blood. My mum was preparing for work and I immediately looked at her and told her water is coming out...she was like pack your bags , get dressed let your dad drop you at the hospital. I went to my room to get dressed and I felt a hot rush of water coming again so I called my husband to meet me at the hospital.
Getting to the hospital at past 6am I waited for a Doctor ,he came checked me and told the nurses to admit me.I was admitted and in between every 30 minutes I was checked. At past 8, I was called to come first the theatre for VE...my God, I screamed my liver out cos the pain is unexplainable. The midwife inserted her hands and I was pushing upwards on the theatre bed to the extent that my head was no longer on it. I cried really bad, that was when the reality of child birth dawn on me.I was 2cm dilated as at that inspection. Around past 10 again I was called to the theatre for VE but this time around it was by the MD of the hospital, you needed to have seen how I almost jumped out of the bed when he inserted his hands , I thought the initial VE was painful but this second one was double painful one would think I was trying to give birth. I was 4-5 cm dilated.
The nurses came every 30 minutes to check my blood pressure and take read of the baby’s heartbeat. Towards 11pm the heart beat was till reading 150 which they said was normal. Later on into 12 to 1pm the heartbeat of my baby started fluctuating, the heart was beating so fast that they had to call a Doctor and when he checked he said he will give me some time and they will check again and if the heart beat rate still goes high I will have to be operated. Later on they checked again and it was still high, they prepared the theatre and I walked there before I entered the theatre, the Doctor had explained to my husband that I and the baby was at risk . While I was in the theatre, the Doctor asked the midwife of my husband had signed the consent for and she confirmed that my husband didn’t hesitate to sign it. The Doctor was like that is so fast!!! The midwife was like that is what happens when you have an understanding man as a husband.
I was asked to sit on the bed and cross both of my hands on my shoulders and I was given aesthetic injections (it was painful and I was so scared) I didn’t feel my body anymore . The 2 Doctors prayed and work started. I was cut open, the incision was small so they were struggling to pull out the baby. Another doctor entered and told the Doctor working on me these words “Cut her more” .. the male doctor working on me said “No, I can work with this cut” ...the intruding Doctor was like “If I was the one I will just cut it further and get it done with”. Come and see me praying at that moment (This was the kind of Doctor I prayed against).
The two Doctors working on me kept pulling and pulling until the Senior Doctor finally pulled out my baby at 2: 41pm he screamed that the baby was big . The baby was cleaned and weighed...my Prince Charming weighed 3.55kg and cried sweetly, The Doctor was like he thought there was going to be complications like bleeding and was very grateful to God for how smooth it was cos it took less than 10 minutes after tear to bring the baby out, I immediately forget my pains when they brought him to my chest and I kissed him. God is indeed wonderful, please praise him for me.

I have officially started my 4th trimester sleepless nights , continuous feeding (I am trying to do exclusive) Baby is just 1 week 5 days but he acts like 3months old. Very strong and active. EDD- 14th April, 1May 2021
Delivery Date-21 April 2021 at 38 weeks 5 days

YummySuits:
Lol, thank God it ended in praise. How is vigilante going?

I haven't been able to produce milk yet

YummySuits:
As in. I saw stars!!!! Although i think what was worse was the contractions, i couldn't stand them at all.

I'm still trying to get used to the stitches, BS loading

Yes especially when the contraction has reached the stage of pushing. That pain traumatised me. I felt like my public wanted to split from my pelvic

urcutecrush:
Good morning mama’s.I will like to know if it is a general doctor that carries out cs operation or a gynecologist.I just found out the hospital that I registered at do not have gynecologist and my aunt is telling me to come to the hospital she works at because they have a gynecologist there but it is farther from my house.How about Normal delivery is it a must a gynecologist must be in charge or just a matron.Am thinking it is waste of time and money to just go and register at a new hospital next week at 38weeks.experienced mama’s please advise me.

Pls gynaecologist is better. Even if matron is there, gynaecologist should be available. I registered at New hospital for antenatal when I was 38 weeks and then I was admitted 3 days later. My antenatal money just go to waste

zaynie:
You can still try now.
Use a manual pump or an electric pump to suction it out.

Yes I would have contacted you but I'm not in lagos now and waybill is another thing I want to avoid. . I will go buy breast pump here in abeokuta

Teetopic:
Same problem I'm facing, nipple too big and my baby's mouth is so small and refuse to open her mouth wide enough for it to go in. Sometimes, I tried forcing it in her mouth but she get chokes. All I do is to express or give her formula.

Exactly what I'm doing o

eminent91:
I went to the hospital today,and was told my blood level is at the borderline (32%).Please,which iron supplement can I use to boost it aside ferrous sulphate?

Its not much of a concern. My pcv was 30% when I gave birth 4 days ago and doctor said it was good

MomoAdura:
Yes oooo.
The earlier the better

Mama...my nipple is too big and flat to enter my baby mouth o. It was not like this with my first. Was it because I didn't do bipple therapy throughout pregnancy

YummySuits:
Good evening mamas. Hope we're all doing well and our LOs are kicking fine. Congrats once again to our new mums.



Please has anyone successfully had a membrane sweep here? I'm scheduled for one on Thursday and I'm a bit nervous. So many questions running through my mind, will it go fine, how soon will labour start after it's done. Also, is it painful as I've read online?

if what u mean by membrane sweep is just to put little finger and prick your water or so. This is not that painful. I heard its uncomfortable thats all

MomoAdura:
Ohhhh....my assistant ported too?
Alhamdulilahi Robil'Alameen...we thank God for safe delivery. Quick recovery to you and give my love to our charming prince. Other May mamas, please mention me in your B.A. It's well with you all

Tinudesi:

Experienced mamas when will this phase be over cos it's easy o

Get used to it . I only got relieved when my baby turned 2 years. I had to back her almost every night or even day before she could sleep. I would b dancing in the night while attending to client in phone. Honestly motherhood not easy

YummySuits:
Congratulations on the birth of your baby @joydan95


Mamas please I noticed some fluid on my bed this morning. As i turned on my side a little more trickled out, at first I thought I had peed myself, but I touched and smelt it, it was not urine. I turned on the light and it was clear fluid. I've been looking out since that time but i haven't experienced it again. Should I be worried??

Does it smell sweet? If not urine it's definitely your water. First put on pad..most doctors will ask to check the pad when you complain to them and you need to go to hospital immediately please

Joydan95:
Team April, help me thank my God o. I have put to birth. Labour pain was for 8 hours , a very bouncing baby boy, weighed 3.55kg , birth was through CS , it was so fast . Thank you all for the prayers , I delivered like the Hebrew women and God honored every of my word.

Congratulations mama. Thank God it ended in praise
