Good day preggie mums, I'm new here.
I just need to know if I'm eating right. I'm 27 weeks with small baby bump and EDD is December.

Is there any meals I should be eating more now so baby can grow reasonably?

Edakun epp a sister.

Don't worry about the size of your bump, in as much as you are certify OK by your doctor then no cause for alarm...
Increase your fruits and vegetables intake

Prayer Monday!
In the name of the Lord Jesus we bring our unborn babies to You Lord and thank You for this gift of grace that has been granted to us. Lord You have heard our prayers as you did Hannah in the bible and have granted us the privilege of bringing a new little life into the world. We pray that our pregnancies may be free of complications and that our little babies will be born perfectly healthy and complete.

Lord we pray that your hand of grace would be on this child not only in the womb but once he/she is born. May he/she come to know and love You Lord and grow into a strong and healthy little child who comes to know the Lord Jesus as his Saviour.

Father we thank and praise You for all the great things that you have done for us and for all the things as yet unknown that You have in store for us all. Lord we love you and stand in awe of the wonderful miracle of life that is growing inside of us and lift up our hands to praise Your glorious name,

Amen

Wow! Beautiful bumps everywhere, God that answereth by fire will sign and seal your faith, as you have asked so shall it be in Jesus name,I see massive BFP announcements here and massive porting to pregnancy thread in Jesus name Amen... Congrats in advance

Happy New month mamas, went for my repeat scan yesterday and my uterus/womb is empty. Doctor said I lost the pregnancy as everything has cleared. No more gestational sac and no retained products of conception. That my body has expelled the foetus during my bleeding last month. I didn't bleed heavily at all and can't recall passing any clot/tissue, though it lasted for 4 days and it's only when I wiped that I saw red blood.
I ttced for 2 years before my miracle baby came and now my baby has gone to be with the Lord. I would have been 13 weeks tomorrow. But in all things I give God thanks. He that did it before will do it again. Wishing all mamas safe delivery.

BTW, is it safe to take energy drink and lick glucose in first trimester

I don't think energy drink is safe cuz it contains caffeine not sure of glucose

booqee:
does it make sense to visit hospital cos of morning all day sickness?

it's been almost five days without been able to keep any food down in my stomach.. I vomit it all out.. I don't have appetite either except for bland foods like pap or sugarless oat which I end up vomiting..

I also cant drink water.. it makes me vomit.

I tried ginger tea today to stop the nausea but it's works for an hour or two and nausea is back again..

I've lost a lot of weight, and I feel I'm dehydrated.. and I look sick in the face.. I'm very weak to walk around much.

is this how it is or I should visit the hospital ..

please help.. I'm losing my mind right now (I cry sometimes especially when I feel so hungry but I know I can't eat cos of zero appetite and nausea at the same time).. I'll be resuming work next week.. and I'm terribly afraid on how I will cope.

It does make sense to visit the hospital coz of MS, especially if you're hydrated Pls go and see your doctor as soon as possible.

curvilicious:
Amen!
As for anxiety i think you shld try nd take off ur mind. Like me, I can mimic symptoms for worldwide since i discovered i chose to stop reading everything nd anything abt preggy symptoms online so, i can have a smooth life plus including pregnancy.
It is well with you dear. You are in my prayers

Same here o anytime I read something like this I will notice am developing the symptoms so have stopped checking for symptoms online. Thanks capo and Yea we are a month closer, all thanks to the lord

Onegai:
How many weeks are you? Your BP rising this early is slightly worrying. Fear and anxiety will make it rise but not that much unless they are other underlying factors. Your doctor will keep checking and he may recommend bedrest. Do you have panic attacks normally (like you really freak out, break in a sweat, almost break down when any situation goes wrong?).

Try and think of things that make you relax, this is the best time to take up a hobby (don't just read a Bible, do something). What do you like doing or what have you been interested in doing? Someone I know loves to organize people's wardrobe and clothing, it calms her down and isn't stressful (it's also a good career as a stylist because she has a great fashion eye). I like gardening, volunteering and painting. Do you like books? Yoga is expensive in Nigeria or I would have recommended it. What about joining a choir or learning a musical instrument at your church? With the recession and stuff, it will also add to your anxiety if you worry about financial issues and family stuff. You have to do physical stuff to avoid it.

I was under horrible stress during my last pregnancy and eventually I decided to stop knowing the numbers of my BP because it was making it worse. I'm fine now. You're going to be just fine too, okay.

I'm just 16weeks and am not doing anything at the moment, I stopped working end of April this year and I wanted to start my own business when we found out about this pregnancy in May so I have to pend it but as it is now I will have to start something or at least learn something new maybe one of the empowerment work nearby. Amen, thanks ma.

ebonychic18:
it's very possible that fear anxiety can cause it to rise. But then to allay your doubts why not check your bp elsewhere like a pharmacy store or if you can afford Omron get one and do it yourself at home. I don't have anxiety issues but I usually dont check my bp immediately I walk into the hospital I always sit, rest, cool down before I allow them check my bp

Thanks ma, I will check if the omron is affordable.

Towerofgrace:
Babes, it is just your fear not that you actually have BP issues (it will never be your portion) and there is a name for what you experience, it is called - White Coat Syndrome-

I first heard about it in from i Vlogger i follow on youtube (FollowTheHills), just assumed all these oyinbos and their plenty serenren sha!. You can read more about it to know you can overcome it.

Pele dear, God is your strength

Amen, thanks ma I will read more on it to know how to overcome it.

Lilliesbud12:
Yes, fear & anxiety can make BP increase Cos you're actually exerting energy.
It's better you do away with that fear cos Fear births so many unpleasant things.i know you know the story of Job in the Bible. please I beg you, be positive, calm and cool. Speak the fear out of ur life. Fear... False Expressions Appearing Real... Let Faith Rule.

Exactly what the doctor told me to always speak fear out, be positive and calm. Thanks ma

imurboss:
Please, try and remove fear from your mind,always confess positively...God's got you!

Amen, thank you ma I will try to remove fear from my mind as much as possible

Happy New month to all mamas...

August mamas easy delivery to you all, baby alive, mommy alive and daddy rejoicing, you will not record any loss in Jesus name Amen...

Pls help me choke mouth for my matter o, all my life have always have phobia for hospital that anytime am going there like this my heart will be beating very fast and I will be curious about what is going to happen there to the extent that I won't be able to hold my breath and I won't have to listen to hear my heartbeat, I registered for Antenatal 2weeks ago and as usual this my fear fear started the nurse that attended to me ask why my heart was beating so fast and I told her that am nervous she said that is why my BP read 145/90 so she told me to calm down that she will try again I calmed a little so she tried and it read 125/80, today my next appointment with my fear and curiosity my BP read 150/90 so I talked to the doctor about it, he checked my test results the urine and it was ok, he checked my legs to see if they are swollen they are fine too and he said it was my fear and anxiety that is making my BP to shoot up and that he will look into it in my next appointment... It's a private hospital. My question now is can fear and anxiety actually increase BP or should I just go and register in a general hospital? Any if it's actually my anxiety, how can I overcome it? Pls don't jump pass...

BS
So on 11th I woke up on a very positive note, I will go for ANC, then go do my facials, pedicure and buy my cosmetics in preparation for actual EDD of 20th .
When I got to the clinic, my BP was very high so the doc advice that an emergency cs was the best option at that time to avoid stories that touch.
On 12th, my BP had risen to 190/140, I was somehow stabilized and wheeled to the theatre and baby delivered.
The devil tried and failed, to God be the glory. The baby was given a very big cut on the face when my belly was cut, and he got 6stitches as a new born. As if that was not enough, we got admitted at neo natal for jaundiced. I also lost so much blood, but I thank God it all ended in Praise.
I thank all of u for keeping this thread alive.

Cc cappo phlakkeys.

Devil is a liar! Thank God it ended in praise for you. May God continue to be with your family...

Debclem:
I have just lost my mum, how unfair can life be? N orphan at 29wks? She gave up on all the plans we made for postpartum visits, she gave up on me and left me all alone in this cold world. How do I deserve this, how do I survive this? It's all empty now, it's all gone. My world has crumbled on me. Who do I turn to, what do I do. It's a nightmare and I want to wake up.

OMG! This is so sad and painful, sorry for your loss, may God give you the strength to bear the loss and may he be with you and your family...
