MemeRoyal: Good evening mamas and congrats to all the new preggys. I'm back here for some advice please. I'm ovulating fine on my own, all my scans, hsg and tests came out good. Although they were all done about a year ago, but only issue I was having was infection which was treated and doc says im fine. After much trying and error stress with doctors, I tried the trad option, same diagnosis of infection plus womb setting, after 3months treatment even she has now said I'm ok. My thoughts it's now 2 cycles since early February I'm certified ok I still haven't conceived and I'm ovulating. Question I want to ask pls, can someone ovulate and still not have enough progesterone to support pregnancy? If so what can I do please to help myself. Cos I always feel like I've conceived, then suddenly the symptoms begin to dissappear and I see menses again.
I used to feel this way, don't go and pump yourself with unneeded progesterone. What you experience is called PMS.
Go to the hospital and request for a pelvic exam to check if your cervix is open and the egg and sperm met?
ThatPetiteChic: October mamas, Happy new month! Happy Easter!! I got all your mentions and I am really happy to know you are in good health. MS is really disturbing us ooo, lol. God will help us. God bless our mothers! I called my mother in love to pray for her, she had 7 children . She tried, biko.
Roll call for the first week in April. TEAM OCTOBER! TEAM OVERCOMERS!! @joliefille @lady25 @Fruit4me @Ibk555 @ThatPetiteChic @jumy16
I think my MS is reducing and my appetite is coming back gradually, though the metallic taste is still there. I have a question o. My breast is itching me badly for 2 weeks. I changed bra thinking the bra is small for me, but it still itches. I use shear butter for now and reduced bra wearing time. Am I the only one with this package? How do you manage it?
Affliction shall not rise a second time, Amen.
Nausea is the major thing for me. The tenderness in my breasts has reduced.
I will appreciate some clarification from the experts or experienced.
My wife is currently pregnant with our second baby and will be due very soon.
The first child was delivered via CS in a private hospital. We got 3 diff reasons for CS from 3 diff Dr. in the same hospital. But at the point of labour when I was asked to sign the consent form, the reason was that labour was taking too long, she is now weak and may affect the baby if pushed further.
After delivery when I request for a report, the reason was that the pelvic was too small, and another Dr latter said the baby had the cord on the neck....That went.
Now we are expecting the second baby, and she is registered at the General Hospital and a diff Private hospital this time. She was asked to do CT pelvimetry scan which she did at Afriglobal. The report that came with the scan footage says her sacropubic diameter is inadequate. Her value is 11.1 and the reference value is 11.5
When the report was taken the hospital (private), she was told that she will have to go through a CS and she should decide on a date when its time.
The same report was then taken to the General Hosp, and she was told that the report may not be accurate that she will go through viginal delivery first, then they may now revert to CS if necessary.
Kindly help shed some light .
Why should someone go through labour pain before doing CS? My advice is safe money and go for CS.
[quote author=ThatPetiteChic post=100306650]My October mamas, how una dey? I am not happy o. Half of the team are too silent. We need to know how you're feeling so we can learn from each other, especially FTMs.

I was had cramps and pain in my lower abdomen when I was around 5 weeks. I wasn't given any medication but I stayed home for about one week and just rested. I slept a whole lot and the pain subsided and eventually stopped.
Fruit4me: Good evenin mummies in the house, this particular supplement was haded to my drugs at the antenatal clinic and I have been thinking weda to return it or is it ok? Pls what do u think?
I am not too sure; however, Vitamin A in pregnancy is not advisable. Please check well.

greatlinda: You do not lie,You do not fail what is hard for you to do it doesn't exist it can never ever exist. Allow me to write long epistle today coz am here with my testimony. Started trying last year November, after my period last November I noticed my breast was sore and heavy, I was sasalivating too much accompanied with severe headache my thoughts were I was pregnant. Did a pregnancy test it came out negative. Started tracking my ovulation found out I wasn't ovulating. My husband introduced me to the people's doctor on Instagram I was skeptical about it coz it was online. He was like let's try her. She gave us test to do...I did the LH, Prolactin, progesterone and transvaginal scan. They all came out fine except Prolactin which was high and she told me to get synergo drug for it. I joined the 21 days hallelujah challenge by Nathaniel Bassey. The test was remaining Hsg which I don't want to do coz I was scared coz I heard it's painful. The doctor asked of the Hsg result I told her I will do it after my flow this month. In all these I did not allow Baba God to rest oooo,I prayed and cried to him that I don't want to do the Hsg test and the only way I won't do it is if am pregnant, I told Him my home was empty He should fill it for me with children.I saw a bible verse here which I used to back up my prayers The lord honour the childless wife in her home He made her happy by giving her Children. Last week Monday I went for PID test coz the sperm keeps leaking out .The result came out that there was no PID but my ovaries were not properly visualized. I became confused sent the result to the doctor she was like do you see your flow every month I said yes then she asked for my HSG test for her to conclude I said to myself HSG again....I did pregnancy test the next day negative. I saw my menstruation on 16th of February I was expecting it on 19th of this month coz I ve 32 days cycle. When I didn't see it I felt maybe the date has changed. On Sunday I was having pelvic cramps so I went to church with my pad,thre in the church I cried and prayed that's in the presence on God I was menstruating coz the pelvic cramps was much I changed my prayer point there that since it's the will of God let the HSG be successful. That same day went to the market to get things I will use to prepare my combo drink,went home yet no flow that Sunday. On Monday no flow but I was having alot of discharge which I know I don't ve on a normal day, called my mum and explained everything to her coz I was also having running stomach with stomach bite she said may be am pregnant coz she experienced same when she was pregnant with her first issue, she said pray coz she believed God will do it for me this month she told God if He will do it for me this month she will give thanks to Him. On Tuesday went to toilet was still having the stomach bite and I was scared of doing pregnancy test ....I told myself do it so you will know what's wrong with you when I did it lo and behold I saw double lines....just help me thank God,He never sleeps,He is God that is everywhere, He is the mighty God that visited me with His mighty deeds.i did the okro water therapy to boost my ovulation and I give alms to women with children.I pray God that did it for me will do it for everyone here Amen
Congratulations mama, your testimony shall be permanent.
Tinudesi: BA BA I welcomed my prince charming at the early hours of today 12:30 at exactly week 39 Baby weight:4kg with tears Mum,son and dad doing well
ThatPetiteChic: Pls, don't cry! Our mamas here will keep you company including me . You can get yourself occupied with religious activities and humanitarian assistance. I will advise you to stay away from herbs and concoctions, it's not advisable. I take pregnacare, 1 tablet daily because I was advised to take it. Why didn't your nurses answer you? Is it a government hospital? Lol, funny people. Look for a better hospital around you. You can get one of your siblings or relative to stay with you, just to kill the boredom .
If you have any worries, pls feel free to mention me.
Pinkie2018: Good day all. I'm new here and I can see this group is good. I was once a TTC mother but by God's grace I'm now seven months pregnant. For over 3 weeks now I have been seeing yellowish green thick discharge from my private part. It comes out frequently and plenty like every 10 minutes and I usually rush to the bathroom to wash it off to avoid smearing it all over my clothes or bed. After some days I became worried and decided to Google it. According to Google, I had trichonomiasis and the remedy is Metronidazole. I discussed it with my hubby and started taking it. I noticed that the discharge changed slightly from thick to light but still comes out more. After I finished the dose I bought and it still comes out, I complained to the matron of the hospital where I do my antenatal but she didn't say or do anything about it. Right now it comes out more frequently and always wetting my pants and clothes. Pls is there any suggestions on how I can treat it without affecting my baby??
This sounds really serious, please go to the hospital immediately. If I had this kind of discharge when I am not pregnant, I will be concerned, how much more in this state when one has to be very careful with drugs.
Good morning GTC mamas, it will happen for all of us sooner rather than later. I just have a small piece of advice. If you can afford it, try to do a hysteroscopy. Doing a hysteroscopy was a huge landmark in my fertility journey, although a bit expensive for me (I had to use proceeds from ajo) I am happy I decided and insisted on it. It was not a doctor who recommended it. I found it in my personal research and started asking for where it can be done.
Esthered: Good morning and happy weekend all, please I have a colleague that did fibroid surgery in the last quarter of 2020. She has been menstruating since January till date. What do you suggest she can do as she was advised to go for hormonal profiling but we don't know the best date to go now.
She should see a gynaecologists, bleeding for that length of time is not safe at all.
oke22: Having an abortion will not usually affect your chances of becoming pregnant and having normal pregnancies in the future.
But there's a very small risk to your fertility and future pregnancies if you develop a womb infection during the procedure that's not treated promptly.
The infection could spread to your fallopian tubes and ovaries, known as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
PID can increase your risk of infertility or an ectopic pregnancy, where an egg implants itself outside the womb.
This settles it all. I am not a saint or shaming people that have had or will have abortion(s). If you check the post I responded to, the lady said someone is trying to conceive, "the person has never had an abortion before". I responded to the person that abortion is not the only cause of infertility. Not having had an abortion before is irrelevant, it doesn't mean you will conceive quickly or not. I know a couple husband and wife married as virgins, yet over 10 years they have not conceived.
I would have expected you to react to the person I quoted instead of this unnecessary argument you want to start. What she wrote is what I responded to.
Mamas in the house I don't understand myself again o. The way I am always hungry these days is so unlike me. This afternoon, I became suddenly hungry, dizzy my body was shaking and I was rolling on the floor when hubby asked me, I shamefully told him that I am hungry. He went to make a chocolate drink for me after which my body calmed down. It took me a while to understand that the problem is hunger, I am already eating more than I usually do. Who else is having hunger pangs like me.
