Goodday Mama, pls I need milk suggestion for my 1year + baby. I think this peak 123 is purging him. He stools like 4 times a day now.

I found peak123 to b 2 sweet so I usually just switch 2 normal adult milk wen my los turn 1yr n dey tolerate it fine. U can try nido 123, some mamas here says it's beta dan peak.

@missmalachi, I feel u. Had a mc n evacuation few days 2 my ds bday. In fact my sis was asking me y I was walking awkwardly bt I just said stress of bday preparation. Mine started after I kpekused, so in my subsequent pregnancies I stayed off kpekus 4 d 1st 3mths nd I tank God dey all went smoothly. God gat u, u ll rejoice again very soon. Stay blessed.

Congratulations 2 my one n only capo Britneystacy, his birth ll 4eva bring u joy. Congrats 2 all of my oda teamies who av offloaded n easy peasy delivery 2 d remaining mamas. Congrats Sugah, God bless ur lo always.

ozycy:

Your doctor is supposed to prescribe one for you. Can't remember the name.

Pls ooo, how do I soften my stool o, looks like my anus hole shrinked after delivery . Where do I get a stool softner 4rm? I can't fit 2 Shi.t since yestdy

My birth story:
All through dis preg, I had serious abdominal pains, sometimes I cldnt stand straight up. Lo wasn't has active as my oda children bt I just put it 2 d fact dat it was an anterior placenta. I kept praying 4 everything go so smoothly wit all d conflicting scans nd I wanted him 2 come b4 my edd cos I was eating nyhow.
Started my leave on d 1st nd I started my long walks. Kept having painful contractions bt nothing ffwld. Last week Wednesday my hubby packaged me 2 my mum's place after I had false Labour @ night. My hospital is close 2 my parents house. Still yet nothing. Just kept having on n off painful contractions.
Went back home on satdy wit d intention of coming back on Monday 4 antenatal. My children were already @ my parents 4 hols. All dis while, I noticed weneva I ate a big meal @ night, lo ll not move @tall till d next mrn bt if I don't, I feel flutters all night. So I concluded he was 2 comfortable. On satdy, hubby took me 2 d mkt after I got home, I stressed myself cooking soup n stew, making poundo yam bt dint participate in d eating. Lo was moving truout d night. At 2am started having serious abdominal pains, so I concluded it was hunger. Took 2 pieces of fish n a cup of milk. Hubby woke up later, hand started roaming nd I just went aheaded cos it's been a while I even gave him face.
After dat, I cldnt sleep, was having serious abdominal pains. I managed till past 6, woke hubby up nd told him I'm having tummy pain. Immediately saw d fear in his eyes. He likes 2 aviod all d labour part, his own is call me wen u give birth. Timing my pains it was 3mins apart. We got 2 d hospital @ past 7, sent him 2 get my stuff from mumsy place nd I cld c he wanted 2 b nywhere else bt dat hospital. After going tru n fro about 3 times, he finally made his escape home. I was checked nd I was told 2cm. In my mind I was like wit all dis pains. Bt @ least it wasn't false Labour. Started doing my breathing technique, tried moving about 2 speed up labour like d last time bt my leg was heavy. Contractions was painful bt d timing was not consistent. Apart 4rm d contractions, abdominal pain was still part of d package. Got checked at 10.30 or so n d doc told me we were progressing. Cos d timing was not consistent, I was not encouraged. Doc just said we shld wait 4 my water 2 break. My legs were heavy so I just sat down trying not 2 cry. Less dan 15mins later I felt a strong pain, I jumped up n shouted 4 d nurse. She came, took me 2 d labour room n I told her I want 2 push. She said no, it was d membrane, cald d doc on phone, she ran in. Meanwhile I was trying not 2 push bt I cldnt hold it. My water broke, my leg got weak n I was told 2 push wit d next contraction. I dint really av d strenght 2 do d Hollywood pushing I always do, bt my lo slipped out wit d little push I gave. I think my water breaking was more painful dan wen my lo slipped out. He had already pooped. Was injected 2 control d bleeding. Gave birth exatcly 11am 2 d glory of God.
Sorry 4 all d long epistle, won't b doing ny typing 4 a long time. Vigilante mode activated. Tank u.

One thing dis pregnancy taught me is dat no 2 pregnancies r dsame. Dis was my 3rd pregnancy. Wit my 1st child, apart from d cysts n fibroid dat was seen in my very 1st scan @ 8wks (wasn't seen in oda subsequent scan), I had a smooth preg. No aches, no cravings, nothing. D only difficult part was my labour which lasted about 6hrs b4 my boy came. For my dd, occasional abdominal pain was wit me, all scans was clear n Labour n delivery lasted about 3hrs without much pains.
Fast forward 2 dis pregnancy, everything was ok on scan, until I did a scan at 24weeks. Normally I do up to 6 scans in a pregnancy cos I stay in Benin n my hubby in lag. I only register in lag, so weneva I come in2 town, doc sends me 4 scan.
All scans were good till dis one, fibroid showed up blocking d birth canal, baby was breech, pcv was low n malaria was positive. Travelled back n came back in a month's time, went 4 scan n baby had turned 2 cephalic wit no fibroid seen. Fast forward 2 36wks, did a scan n grammer came out. Anterior placenta wit anoda node seen on d posterior side. Ha, I went 2 Mr Google, nd it said it's just 2 make sure everything comes out during delivery. My doc wasn't ok wit it, so she sent me 2 anoda scan centre d next week, nd nothing was seen on d posterior side nd my pcv went up 2 32percent. Edd came a week close n baby was weighing 3.1kg already.

Thank u all for the mentions n likes. God bless u all. Congratulations 2 my fellow teamies dat av offloaded n easy easy delivery 2 d remaining mamas. Birth story loading.

Tanks 2 almighty Allah, my Prince arrived @ 11am dis mrn, weighing 3.2kg. May God grant all d remaining pushing mamas safe n easy delivery. #Team August, team like no oda.

@Melly245, I don't think it's spose 2 bleed o. My Ds did d ring type n it dint bleed @tall after d procedure till d ring fell. If d bleeding is not much myb it's d strain of him crying making it bleed. We used olive oil til d ring fell after few days. Sorry dear, dis 2 shall pass.

@ Zaynie b like sallah preparation no hold u down @tall dats y u fit think up dis kind tin.

Captain britneystacy, tanks 4 checking. We r doing good. Lower abdominal pain is my package. Hailings 2 all mamas.

lilylurv:


lol.... See ds mama o. Overexcitement dey worry her, olive oil is for cleansing of the baby

My clinic uses olive oil during delivery. In fact one bottle of olive oil dey finish. I think it helps baby slips out easily.

mumsgirl27:

my baby face is lighter than her body, what could be the cause, I used ori, Vaseline (blueseal) and coconut-oil mixture right from brithday, her skin is perfect, just the different shade of colour(face is fair, while body is a bit chocolate).

Iv been using Shea butter 4 both my kids 4rm day one till date n dia faces has always been lighter dan dia bodies. It dsnt bother me though.

missade:


Ha...5 ke? Even though the injection no dey pain me but to just be chooking me needle 5 times!
Pls when are the last two taken?

If u complete d 5doses, u r covered 4 life. D last 2 is one yr apart so even in subsequent pregnancies u don't av 2 take all if u ffg tru. But if u miss nyone like me, u start all ova again wen u get pregnant again.

@ enkaydewdrop, sorry 4 d pains. VE is uncomfortable bt not painful, he shld av just let u b immediately he felt u were tight. He dint av 2 keep at it wit all d screaming. All VE iv done has never left me traumatised, I just feel a little bit uncomfortable n after a while I'm good. D Lord ll grant u ur heart desire of a VD after all some pple wey no kpekus truout pregnancy still give birth tru VD. August mamas I dey hail.

ambient:
My baby always have serious hiccup after eating pls is it normal?

Very normal, it ll reduce wit time. I'm told dey r expanding dia tummies.

Tank u Swearest n Rhukky, may Allah increase u in knowledge.

As i type one long epistle yestdy, na so my phone off b4 i cld submit. Na wetin remain i submit so. Una gd mrn. Congrats bumbex, welcome 2 all newbies, happy bumping all.Hon captain britneystacy who u wan abandon ship 4 I'm watching u I 6D. U can deliver 1st of August, no p bt porting is not allowed 4 u.

airforcewife:


MumZ my own hubby loves mostly all the chips n sauce, yamballs, moimoi all those kinds...he will hardly eat the normal heavy foods for iftar...so myb u could try those...with maybe sides of fruits, soup etc..

My problem is him loosing 2 much weight cos has it is he is on d slim side. So I'm trying 2 feed him meals dat ll keep his weight intact @least, bt 4 where he is not helping matters. Eats like a bird. Still saying his throat is not opened in d mrn n in d evns after taking fruits, 2 eat food becomes an issue. He is even trying now, by d time I go back 2 base I'm afraid he may drink water in d mrn n eat just fruits @ night.

Tank u Zaynie, 4 some reason I don't seem 2 b getting my mentions. Dsnt really av a fav dish, he loses appetite easily even wen he has been complaining he is hungry, if he just eats little he is filled up. I ll just make sure he takes tea wit ny meal in d mrn.

Good one Zaynie. 1st day of fasting, I almost overslept. Tank God I could rustle up something. Is dere ny way 2 open hubby appetite up? He dsnt eat much n he is just 2 lanky. After d fasting now, he ll b looking 2 lean.

Ramadan Kareem Zaynie n 2 all Muslim faithful. I really need 2 put effort in being a better Muslim. May Almighty Allah make it easy 4 us all.

Tank u Lovinam n Soonest. God is in control. D good tin is d pain disappear after some days.

@ Lovinam pls, is dere any way 2 reduce dat after delivery pain. I dint experience it wit my first bt wit my gal, it came on during breastfeeding n it was wen I read about it, I saw d belle is contracting. Dat pain was terrible n I read it gets worse wit subsequent kids. Though I dint know wen it later subsided. But is dere a way 2 prevent it or a medication 2 reduce d pain? Cos d 1st time it hapnd, I almost dropped my baby in my rush 2 put her down. Sorry 4 my long tory bt I'm really not looking 4wrd 2 dat pain. Tank u.

Beremx:
hold on modath, i had to check my son's immunization book to be sure. Which one is PENTAVALENT? Does it consists of Rota too?

"modified"

Rota is different 4rm Penta. Rota n PCV is not free in govt. hospital in Lagos n Abuja. U av 2 pay 4 it in private hospitals n dia prices varies.

sweetlily2818:
Hello mothers in the house, pls am new in this forum and also want to be part of this great forum. I have this question disturbing me, I gave birth about three month ago and ever since i haven't menstruated is possible for me to get pregnant, pls, I need an answer to this question.

Yes very possible. U can get pregnant wit ur 1st ovulation, so play safe.

@ teamie captain britneystacy, abeg wetin do honey during pregnancy o, cos instead of sugar i use honey. In fact I cant remember d last time I ate sugar, iv been using honey both in n out of pregnancy. Pls o, wetin b d risk, cos iv never heard of ny.

@ hajarahbadmus, don't worry ur Labour ll b short n quick insha Allah. My 1st felt like 4eva, bt 4 my 2nd it was very fast, less dan 2hrs n not @tall so painful. By d time d pain was getting unbearable, I was ready 2 push. Also d breathing technique helped me wit my 2nd, unlike wen I was shouting during my 1st. I was also very active during my 2nd preg dan d 1st, lots of walks. Finally, positive confessions n prayers helpd a lot. Kept praying n telling God wat I wanted 4rm day one of my pregnancy. It's well sis, don't let fear take over. God is in total control.
