Bennytwin:
I don't even know where I belong,really. I have been in 'trying to conveive' sector,now here. To be honest I just need advice. Pls any experience anyone here have had that might or can help me.pls drop it

Have been pregnant thrice with recurrent miscarriages.so u can imagine how scared I m that I m preggy again
Just found out last week.
The last one I was on progesterone yet I loss him/her.

I m here because the topic said 'high risk' pregnancy.i know most people here have healthy pregnancies but pls if you can help me with any tip I will appreciate so much.
I m shaking as I type because I just spotted few mins ago at 5 weeks and some days.
I have prayed, cried and everything.
I can't do scan now because heartbeat can't even be detected now.

The last one I lost there was detection of heart beat at 6 weeks plus 5 days,yet I lost him at 8 weeks and 5 days even with taking duphaston

Pls don't pass this post if u have an advice or anything I can do so this one stays. God help me for I m lost

Sorry mama.
All I'll say is just take ENOUGH rest. Suspend activities that require bending, swinging of hands. If possible try a bed rest in the hospital. Keep ur emotions stable, pray and be positive.
Best wishes ma. This shall be ur rainbow baby.

wandeykul:
I'm in my 14th week but I still feel so tired with heavy spitting. I've stopped vomitting and I eat well now. I'm tired of complaining to hubby,it's really tiring. I'm a ftm

Sorry mama. I think the spitting can be reduced when u know what triggers d spitting most. Like one of my aunties who spits from d biginnig of her preg to d end got to understand with her fourth preg that hunger triggers d spitting more, so she made sure she didn't go hungry before eating and d spitting drastically reduced. For some people, oil in food triggers d spitting, some can't food without pepper. You can try to understand what triggers it more. The Lord is our strength.

Firstlady001:
My own no be MS oooo, na all day nausea.
Omo nausea/vomiting and tiredness is still dealing with me.....in all I give thanks to God

Oh wow.. Sorry mama. I must be lucky not yo have much MS with this pregnancy. I even forget I'm pregnant sometimes. God is our strength.

It's same for all December mamas, bcs whether we put to bed before Christmas or not, there will be no much Christmas jolly bcs it's either it's omugwo or counting down to delivery. I only know my house will be full that Christmas day as people will want to use the opportunity to visit for both Christmas and baby.

frances01:
Abeg nausea is killing me, i vomit every day, the worst is that no appetite to eat anything except very hot tea, taking my drugs na war sef.
i can't wait for this first trimester to pass.

I think almost all team Dec are feeling this way that's why we don't talk much hahhhhahahahahahahhaahha

OK.. It's MS that is closing our mouths, issorite. Very soon now, this thread will be filled with December people shouting upandan and blocking roads with their bumps.. Lol..
Don't worry, MS will soon be over, 1st trimester will soon pass.

Debbieeeeeee:
It’s easier for those at work, For we at home everyday like this I’m counting plus one plus one plus one looking forward to events around that period I’m due

Yea.. I can relate. I had to start work to kill boredom and of course make more money.

dunnybaby:
My cappo,MS is easing down small small o. I even craved Amala and efo riro today which I prepared and ate well without vomitting,is God not wonderful? I was like this on Friday too but Saturday wasn't funny so I guess MS is gradually parking it's load. I will be 12 weeks on Thursday. Trying to distract myself by mingling.

Hahaha.. God is really wonderful oo. Thank God MS is gradually reducing. I distract myself with work. Teaching is enough distraction, I get home tired with the thought of making dinner. My days are usually fast tho.

All these my December team mates are just kwayet anyhow
Is it because it's still far or we are still battling with MS? Abeg, make una comout jare.. Make una come make we know how we dey do.

Debbieeeeeee:
Lol thanks mama, I’m closing my eyes to take it so my money won’t waste because the only thing that crossed my mind while purchasing was how about people who can’t afford this damn thing I’m sure they still go ahead and have healthy babies, so why am I stressing but well bodies are different.
I’m taking a break for a few days before I begin the new one I purchased recently(I hope I’m not messed up either) but I’ll keep taking my folic acid during the hiatus, as I have 5mg Folic acid prescribed separately by my OB.
As a side rant - count down during pregnancy is the slowest! 3 days is like 3 years.

Lol.. It's true! Countdown can be veerry slow. I just distract myself with work and check my app only weekends when I start a new week. The days run fast when I'm busy and I just wonder how the week was faasstt.

enque:
U shld b speaking to a dr to b sure of what's going on. I Dont think U can get sufficient answers here

Ok. Thanks

prettmum:
A don't work your self up, God has prefected all that concerns you, as long as their is strong heart beat,you are good to go beside they said dating of +-2 weeks is within normal range....safe delivery dear

Thanks a lot.

Good morning everyone. Congratulations to mamas who birthed their LOs and safe delivery to others.

Pls I'm worried about my scan result. I went for scan last week, it gave me 10w5d and I saw CRL 20mm as against 40+mm I saw online for that 10/11 weeks. Should I be worried abt that baby size?
Secondly, d scan measured 10w5d as opposed 11w5d according to LMP. According to LMP, I should be 13weeks today, but according yo scan, I'm 12weeks today. Pls which should I go with? Scan or LMP?
The sonographer didn't say anything about the size of the baby, he only said I should be careful with bending bcs placenta is low lying and it should move up with time.
My main concern now is d size of d baby, should I be worried, is d baby growing? Pls help me oo

senoraaquila:
Happy new month everyone
June, July, then August . We need a dancing emoji sha

Then after August, September, October, November and then December!

B.S B.S
Long post alert. Grab your zobo and puff puff

So dh and I got married in Dec, 2019 and I took in instanta. At 12 weeks in March when we went to register for antenatal, it was discovered I had missed miscarriage. (the baby stopped developing at week . I cried my eyes out but DH was strong for me. So we evacuated. My birthday was the following day. I was in so much pain that night, dh brought my gift and sang for me, we didn't sleep that night. The next day being my bday, he bought me cake and insisted I had a photoshoot. Worst birthday everrrr.

Got my period in April. Dh and I started calculating my ovulations. Baby dancing was more for baby than fun so dh was really not having it nice. Sometimes he'll find it difficult to get up, other times he won't just c*m. Arghh! Frustrating. After my period in July, I decided to not tell him about my next period or ovulation. He kept asking but i didnt say. Then baby dancing was great fun mostly initiated by yours truly especially around my ovulation. August came, I missed my period, tested the next day and boom 2 straight, shining beautiful lines were smiling at me and i smiled back. So the 9 months journey began.

FIRST TRIMESTER
First trimester was smooth. I slept alot the first few weeks, threw up when brushing and had headaches. But I had a lot of fears and worry because of the previous experience. Few days after my bfp, I spotted and ran to the hospital, found out it was implantation bleeding. Did my first scan at 8 weeks, was told there was no fetal pole but there was movement. That night I no sleep. Dh kept encouraging me and I kept researching. Later, I felt my boobs were no longer full and tender, so I went back to the hospital and asked for progesterone test which was declined by my hmo saying everything was ok with me. I started crying o. Dh was still there for me. Finally my linear nigra started showing and my tummy started bulging. Like that first trimester passed.

SECOND TRIMESTER was easy and great. I was full of energy. It was only with my bulging tummy i remembered I was pregnant.

THIRD TRIMESTER I had thought 3rd trimester would be hard but it was so easy and smooth. I had really big tummy and it never stopped me from doing anything.

DELIVERY
I saw my mucus plug on the Monday when I wiped. Went for antenatal on Tuesday and told the doc about it. I was 39+ and was really praying and hoping to deliver before my due date. I told him I had hoped that would be my last antenatal and he said hopefully. On Wednesday morning I saw some water when I got up from the bed and i knew it was my water.

That night 29th April at about 1am contractions started, I couldn't sleep. I didnt wake dh up but started timing but it was irregular. Dh is an early riser, so when he woke up by 4am he noticed i was in pain and asked that we went to the hospital but I told him we should wait. I did the dishes and some other things before we left by 6:30. V.E was done and I was 2cm. Because of the fluid I was loosing i had to be admitted. I tried walking, climbing stairs to help with dilation. For where? I was checked like 3 more times yet I was still at 2cm. I made a mistake going that early. I was actually worried because of my water. You see those 2 fingers ehn! Plus the doctor is fat you need to see his fingers. I told him his fingers were too big. contractions increased at night but was not still regular. I still couldn't sleep. I don't know how some people sleep between contractions o. Chai! Contractions were supposed to push lo down, but mine stayed obviously up. My mum even noticed lol.

In the morning dh and SIL brought me bread and tea before I could eat, I was whisked away to the labour room. That was when the real real deal started. They checked that morning, i was still at 2cm. I almost cried. He kept monitoring the contractions. Later they placed misopristol under my tongue. Contractions doubled with very little
breaks in between. They kept checking lo's heart rate and my progress unfortunately, I wasn't progressing. By afternoon, I was barely 4cm. They broke my water. Later, the nurse said i had urine in my bladder, so they removed it. They fixed drip for me, the nurse said it was water. Contractions were still the same, dilation was still the same. Later they added oxytocin. That sh*t was mad o. I had thought contractions were strong with misopristol, with oxytocin? Well, i can't describe. It was back to back, no breaks. I moved from holding the bed frames to holding dh. I find latter helped better. When contractions come, I'll clench his shit, or bite hard on his sleeves. The doctor was like I should not bite him o, they can't 2 emergencies at the same time lol. At 7/8 cm I started asking for Cs o. By the time I was 8cm, I asked for epidural but they said it was late that those that ask for it usually do so ahead of delivery or at most before 6cm and they don't just ask patients because of the cos na I hear 170k. Inside my contractions I shouted WHAT? They did VE for God knows how many times and it will look like they are trying to expand my cervix with fingers. So painful. They always asked if I felt like pushing or pooing. When I felt like pooing, they said i should go ahead. Omo I started releasing the thing. When I was done, I was told to push when I have contractions. The doctor told me to push with the pain and look at my tummy. The bed head side was elevated which really helped as I could see my tummy with ease. What I couldn't do was holding my ankles. I felt better holding the bed head side frame.

I just kept pushing when contractions came without even being asked. When the baby's head didn't pass through, they had to cut me. They told me that moment was very critical and I should keep pushing. I pushed hard and long and kept pushing, then the baby's head came out. With few more pushing, my baby came out at 5:17pm. Immediately, he was placed on my chest. The feeling is out of this world. Before being carried for Cleaning. After being cleaned he was placed on my chest. I had a little skin-to-skin moment with him. The placenta was delivered then I was stitched and cleaned up. They gave my a drug that made me shiver and we were then taken to our room.

I wish every preggy mum safe delivery and sprinkle baby dust on every gtc mum. I'll be back soon.
Cc April cappo @Africaflozy

An interesting BS. I love your BS mama. Thank God for safe delivery. I felt I was with you in the hospital. Congratulations once more.
