stadora:Having him in there ws really encouraging cos he held my hand and kept praying for me and that gave me the motivation to push. Govt hosptals don't allow that but most private hospitals do. |
BS: thanks alot u guys. Was having meustral like cramps pain that were coming and going eveRy 20mins on sun morning. Wen the cramps were getting more painful I went t the hospital at 11pm sunday with my mum and DH. Was checked by d nurses and was told my cervix wasn't fully dialated (just 1cm)that was wen my show came. All these while I was still contrsting. At 7:30am or so the doc checked me and he said d contractions where not strong enough and I was placed on drip. That was wen I started seeing hell. Lol . By 11am wen the pain ws unbearable DH went to call the doc and I was taken to d delivery room. Doc said I shld push wen ever I felt d contractions. While pushing my LO's head was almst out but d placenta cord was around it and he qucikly told me to stop pushing, he quickly removed d cord and I pushed again and my prince emerged. DH was in d delivery room watching everything o.lol he just kept praying for me. Doc said I wld hav delivered since but tge cord was holding my bby's neck. I just praise God . |
GloRy be to God my prince just arrived few hous ago. Thanks to you aLl for support. |
Hello everyone been a silent reader on this thread and I hav actually learnt lot here. I'm in my 39th week and I'm feeling this menustral kind of pain in my lower abdomen that comes and goes. It comes like every 20mins and lasts for like 10seconds. Does this mean I'm already in early labour? May God see us all tru. #teammay |

Keji3:Use a cold compress, such as a cloth wrung out from iced water, to relieve the pain around your bottom. Gently and thoroughly clean the affected area after you've done a poo. Wiping with moist toilet wipes can be more comfortable than using toilet tissue. Pat rather than rub yourself dry. Try pushing the piles gently back into your rectum with a clean finger when you are having a bath or shower. You can also sit in a bowl of warm water. That relieves the pain fast The following tips will help you to avoid piles, as well as ease the symptoms if you have piles: Eat a high-fibre diet, including wholemeal bread, cereal, wholewheat pasta and brown rice, and plenty of fruit and vegetables. Drink between six and eight glasses of water every day, and avoid caffeine, so you don't become dehydrated. Try to exercise regularly, even if it's just a short, brisk walk. Go to the loo straight away when you feel the urge, as waiting can make your poo harder and drier. Try not to strain while on the loo. If the poo isn't coming easily, take your time, or try again later after you've had a drink of water, some fibre, or had some exercise. Try putting your feet up on a stool when doing a poo. It may make opening your bowels easier. You could apply pressure with your fingers to the muscular area between your vagina and back passage (perineum) while having a poo. This stimulates a reflex that increases muscle tone in your rectum, and may make having a poo easier. Do pelvic floor exercises daily. This may make having a poo easier, and prevent piles from developing by increasing the circulation around your bottom, and strengthening the muscles in your vagina, perineum and rectum. It will also help you to give birth and speed up your recovery afterwards. |
mummy2be:Its crazy! I had to buy dusting powder and use it all over my upper body after bathing @ night without drying my wet body! Tht helps |

If those kids were truly abducted, after the training may God turn their hearts against their abductors . May those guns be used to wipe boko boys training them. |
My grandma told me a lot how “un-nigerian” I sounded. She always said I spoke with my nose and talked too fast for her hearing. That explained why a 2minute conversation ended up in 10minutes with her because she always asked me to repeat myself. She wasn’t the only one. My mum also complained of how much I slurred my words and strangers would ask me if I just got back from America when I hadn’t even seen the inside of an airplane since I was two. It’s funny how it’s the people who haven’t even crossed borders that try so much to sound like an Americana. It was not the way I was built, I did this consciously. I tried my best not to sound like an Igbo girl. One time, I pronounced blossom /ˈbläsəm/ as /’blōsəm/ and I was called out by my friend. She laughed so hard at me and said I sounded like my people. I felt very embarrassed and I made a mental note not to make that mistake again. Growing up in a society where having a western accent opened doors, it was important for me or so I thought not to be perceived as an ‘Igbo girl’ in the way that I communicated. This was such narrow minded thinking but I didn’t care about that because I was so bent on getting rid of my accent. This was something I came to find, a lot of Nigerians were doing. From the newscasters on tv, to the musicians, nollywood actors down to the people at school. When people asked me if I spoke igbo, I felt a rush of accomplishment when I said ‘Oh no, I don’t speak Igbo. I was born in Lagos.’ Even though I understood the language but they didn’t have to know that. Technically, I wasn’t lying I told myself. Moving to New York will get rid of what’s left of my Igbo accent in no time, I thought. I didn’t care what I sounded like as long as I didn’t sound Nigerian. With the way I spoke, some people thought I was British and an employer thought I was French. No one thought I was Nigerian. So when I was asked where I was from and I said Nigeria, I surprised people. And the more I lived, the more I began to sound more American. I started losing the pronunciation of my t’s and talking like I had water in my mouth or should I say wad-er. Why was I choosing to blend in? Why did I think that to sound smart, I had to forsake my accent? I felt my identity fading away. How will anyone know I am Nigerian without my telling? More than ever I needed to accept myself and be proud of who I am. And as soon I realized this, the regrets came flooding in. I should have been enthused in learning how to speak my language. I should have traveled with my family to the village to learn more about my culture. I should have stuck to my accent. Some people might say ‘Get over yourself. It’s just an accent!’ No its not just an accent. It’s my history. It’s my culture, It’s a reminder of who I am and where I am from. If we are so willing to change something as ‘minor’ as our accent because we feel inferior with it, what is to stop us from losing the rest of our culture to this western lifestyle we so much adore. So there I was, hanging on so tightly to the few strands of cultural identity I had left. I started making a conscious effort to sound Nigerian because living here, makes it easy to forget. It is easy for me to speak in an accent everyone can effortlessly grasp and it is quite frustrating when they have to ask me to repeat what I’ve said but, what has easy ever accomplished? No more high pitched, over-cheery tone for me(that was what I sounded like). I’m over trying to ‘impress’ anyone with a fake accent and if you are the kind that is easily swayed by that, I suggest re-orientation. I’m grateful to my family and friends because they always tell me when I’m trailing off with my americana accent and I am glad for their honesty as it keeps me in check. My partner says that I sound different from when he first met me and I respond ‘This is the real me, too late for you now’. You can sound just as smart, refined and enlightened as anyone else without having to fake your accent. Realizing something as little as this, caused a ripple effect and broadened my mind to other things I take for granted. I have found a new love for my culture and an overwhelming sense of pride when I say I am Nigerian...... Read more on (cheeksinthebigcity.tumblr.com) |

Hello everyone. My first xperience of the supernatural happened wen I was in Jss 1.was in a boarding house. One night b4 I slept I made a prayer and I told God I wanted to see a spirit ( I hav always herad about pple talk about seeing spirits so I wanted to know if they are real) . After the prayer, I dozed off only for me to wake up so abrubtly like I wasn't sleeping b4. The whole room was dark (there was no nepa light or gen ) suddenly I looked at the window and saw a dark figure appear inside the room. It started waking right in the middle of the room. A sleeping room mate suddenly shook her body while sleeping and this very tall shadow went into hiding. Wen it saw that everywhere was quiet it came out of hiding and headed toward me ( all this while my eyes were widly opened, I cldnt blink,move or talk I was in a state of shock) it knew I was starring @ it so it came closer to me, sat on my bed, and strarted starring @ me with very red, big horrible eyes( its eyes looked like it was burning with fire) . I was just starring bak at it. Then I started struggling to shout Blood of Jesus but I cldnt,,I kept trying until it finally came out " BLood Of JEsus" then the shadow quickily got up and flew bakwards still looking at me but this time it was in pain until it dissapeared tru the window. Ten I was able to stand up and I qucikly jumped into my school mother's bed and started shievering till the next morning. Pple said they heared my scream but were all scared to move. My mom took me out of that school after my jss1. |
