rosejen:

i am 12 weeks pregnant and this is my first pregnancy, ulra sound sacn revealed that i have an ovarian cyst in my left ovary which is about 5.8, and the doctor said in some cases it grows but woulld be bad if it gets bursted or twisted, because when such occurs i will be operated upon ( God forbid) but in most cases the cyst remains there untill the baby is born then i will be operated upon to remove it. he said i should pray that it doesnt grow beyond proportion.

pls help me with an advise if you really know about this cyst of a thing in a pregnant woman and also pray along with me cos i cant afford to loose this baby.

thank you

Dont be afraid, HE that planted the baby, is more than able to keep it. However ask the doctor if there is anything u can do to reduce the size, why leaving it to chances.

luvly:

I hv just taken a pregnancy test & it came out positive.pls sm1 should advice me on what 2 avoid during pregnancy.

Congratulations!! The most important thing now is your PRENATAL VITAMINS. l dont think chewing garri will harm the baby, but it does not contribute any nutritional value to the baby. leave the junks and fill urself with healthy foods.

Beetle:

Ladies,

where is everyone?

Any BFP ?

God will help us to register BFP in this thread! l cant wait to hear goodnews.

My period just arrived over the wkend, but dont know why it didnt run as usual. Does folic acid affects period, maybe reducing the quantity and the menstral pain? l took a lot of folic acid last cycle and there was a great change this cycle.

My Peace, you will be saddened by the kind of craziness going on in most marraiges now especially in big towns like Abuja, Lagos and Port. Men, able bodied men look for women they can feed fat on, the men refuse to work they claim to be business men then look for women who are earning huge salaries to scrub off, so the man really does not care where the money comes from.

you are very correct!  God will indeed help marriages! lt seems some of our men are becoming lazy!  and again employement is favouring women these days more than man (l may be wrong)  But take a look at the banking industry, more women than men!

@poster

my brother, you set the STANDARDS, you can still reset it. if you die through stress trying to maintain a standard, life will continue and those kids wont die! l am glad you didnt say your wife is bent on maintaining the standard, so pls reset it. cut your clothe according to your material. lf you reset the standard, l bet you, you wont complain much, and you will have a leftover for yourself amd rainny days. Let your wife do something no matter how meagre it may seem, unless your standard is also hindering you from opening a very small buisness she can run at home! When you are thinking of today, think of tomorow!

@ Beetle

thank you for those pix, l have read about spinach and broccoli, though they are in the same family with cabbage, that while l make do with cabbage, cos l dont seem to know them.  But now with this pix l know broccoli, just that l didnt know the name before now (lol)  l go visit my mallam soon for it,

Ejadamen:

It turned to normal period whew!

thank God for it!

Outstrip:

mypeace how come you know so much about where this woman gets her money. I am wondering why you are so worried about her marriage. What proof do you have that she is cheating on her husband

my dear, dont bother how l know, but I KNOW!

Thank you for your contribution.  l love the word PRETENCE, so they actual know and pretend not to.  thats very shameful.

There is nothing really bad about the woman earning higher or being the bread winner, some women do this with respect to husband and their woman dignity intact.  My concern is where they sell their self respect for the sake of PROVIDING for the household, and the man pretend not to see!

Dirty is not good, it usually means infection, l could be wrong. l would say leave it till this weekend, by next week you take a step if it doesnt lead to normal period.

Can we discuss this issue of married women living above their income. l am particular about women who are the family bread winners. l know of a friend that earns a very very low salary, but do things that people who earn far cant do. To be frank l know she is cheating, my concern is that why do the husband do as if he is not seeing what is happening.

Husbands, what will you do if your wife is spending/investing more than she earns, and you see evidences of it. (what can you do especially if she is the breadwinner)[b][/b][/color][color=#990000]

Ejadamen:

Never heard of that,you should do a home preg test or go to a lab to confirm

@ Mypeace and others, so o! Period has refused to resume but spotting began yesterday just as I was about to go to a gyneacologist. Should I wait and observe or still visit a doctor?

What kind of spotting are u having?  if its a dirty, see your gyn, but if it seems normal, the one that comes before the main period, give urself some time.  But it its unusual for you, whatever the kind, see your gyna



l am in my 2ww, woww!!!!!!

@Edymontana

home pregnancy test kits is available at mostly every pharm store in Nig. Though l stay in Lagos but l know you will see it at any pharm store in PH. it cost N50.00 per one.

Thank God you are back!! :

masido:

@all,
i think oln is right about pre-seed.i've been reading about it too and i've starting using it since last month.i hope it helps.
you guys should try it too, with God on our side, it will work for us.
cheers all.

is the preseed readily available at at pharm. store? l may want it give it a trial.

l have read so much about this pre-seed huhhhh


However friends, how is everybody doing? l have decided to really change my meal. l dont just eat anything for the sake of it, but things that will help me in this situation and also to remain healthy. l have found among various things, that cabbage veggie and wheat meal are very good for us. cabbage contains cruciferous, which is good for hormonal balance, and whole wheal meal is very very good, had almost everything a good prenatal vitamins has. so instead of eating eba, amala, semo etc, replace it with whole wheat meat. dont just buy already processed ones, buy the raw ones from any local market, ground it into powder, there you go! Eat it for one week, you must notice a different in your system!

lf you are eating just to qunch hunger, eat garri, but if you are nutritionally conscious eat WHEAT.

Aladunni:

I feel for all trying to concieve there is a good book that can really boost your faith, whatever religion you are, its a positive book, there are numerous testimonies of women who have been written off completely but they praised God, one of my sisters-in-law was a living testimony what God helped to do through reading the book. She took the confessions for 3 months when she got pregnant after over 2 years of waiting.

Please note that it is not automatic, but God will make us one of the numerous testifiers of his goodness and kindness.

How are u doing? long time u posted here, how far about you? l got that book as xmas gift last December, lt was the bomb! l need to read it again this time around!

Light has drastically improved in my area!

Maybe they felt you posted on the wrong section.  But thats bad, l hope they unban you, lts really bad!

MYPEACE Congrat, we are very proud of you.

Everyone i got a new job as the PA/ Office Manager of a Manufacturing Company also and the role is very challenging, I give God the praise.

Congrats!! lts amazing that God visits his own, even in this time of job losses!

My dear, take ur time, though l sense hormonal imbalance, l maybe wrong. But take ur time, for me l have even lost confidence in doctors (apologies to any dr here pls). l have seen cases of people getting pg without even seeing their period, as u even mentioned ur case above, nothing is impossible before God.

@ Ejadamen
l could understand what you went through. sorry about ur loss. On the irregularity of your period, when l had the last one in april, didnt see my first period till August, took me another 4 months i.e Dec to see another. lt was a cause of worry for me, becos l know it could be hard to conceive under that situation. In January l decided to go self medication (not advisable though) by taking some food supplements which corrected it and l took in, though it resulted in the last miscarriage. This time around my period came at the right time. l think evacuation does a kind distortion to the whole hormonal system. lt took a friend of mine 6months to see her first period after a miscarriage and another friend for the last two years hasn't seen her period before of an abortion.

lt is well dear, do whatever u can and leave the rest to God.

N/B. My doctor gave me a drug l bought 10k which he refused to disclose the name (cant just understand) to regularise the period, l took it for sometime and abandoned it, l couldnt just be taking what l dont know.

Hi masido, lt is well, the Lord never disappoint!

@ALL
The good news from me is that my period has regulated, it came at the right time! l believe God for this month!!!!

Hv a gr8t week evrybody!

Thank you very much! l will try to be visiting!

Avenir:

A motivation letter is generally expected to answer three questions:

1. Where am I (situation analysis)?
2. Where do I want to go (goal)?
3. How will the masters degree assist in the goal achievement?

I think you have the general idea in the letter. You need to work on the flow and cut out information that won't answer any of the questions above. Then you'll be done.

thanks for the bolded hints!

Hello everybody, how go the go. Hope somebody applied for Choosy advert. l am just seeing it.

Whoopie:

I worked as a Secretary/PA for 5yrs before resigning at my last place of work 10yrs ago to have my baby. Since then, I've not worked in any company, just doing my thing. Started my own business in interior decoration and related businesses, and have been doing fairly ok. But with the economic downtrend, things have been very tight recently. Now I'm considering going back to an admin job, but on a part-time basis. Is there anything for me out there? I ask this, cos I feel quite constrained at my age - 40yrs - to go out in the job market to compete with younger people. What's your take on this?

you have been away for too long, may be you should do one or two courses to refresh yourself, things have changed i.e technology/work process, dont think it still the way u left it 10 years ago. However you can compete if you are determine to give the labour market what it wants!


@ all

Wish to thank you all for your advice to go for the CIPM, the result is out and l passed all the papers, lam moving to PE 1. l give God all the glory!!!!!

And l havent told you guys, l now work as admin/Hr in my office, its really God's leading to go for the course. l was sent on a course this month on HR, it was really good!

@ GenBuhari
Thanks for ur hint.

@itiade
Thx dear, l will do as u said. Infact God is an awesome God, if He could give u two for asking for me, l believe He will give me three for asking for two!!

@all
l take one tablet of folic acid a day, is that one equivalent to 400mg?. l use to take pregnacare, but suspended it, because l found out some other food supplement l take contain the same vitamins in the pregnacare except folic acid, am afraid of overdose, so l now take ordinary folic acid, one a day, do l need to increase it or is it enough for daily requirement?

itiade:

@ my peace, cld be an issue with the cervix. Dont ignore it.
I started spotting each time at 6weeks.
You can imagine!!!!!
This last one, I went on leave immediately i started spotting and had the cerclage done at 12 weeks.
Believe me, the spotting stopped and I didnt have any issues anymore.

Lest I forget, I was on progesterone inj from week 6 - 13, two times a week. not once as most docs do.
my new doc said there was nottin like having too much prog. in the system. pls consider it.
Cheers

Apart from the progesterone injection, what other thing did you do from 6wks till 12wks before the cerclage was done. However, can you get on me onyiioatyahoo.com. tx

thank you my people. l changed my doctor immediately. l blamed him for everything, the day l got the positive pg test, l told him that day that l was seeing small dark brown, he just ignored it and give me only medication for the leg pain, the following day the blood increased, l rushed back to the hospital, he said l should just rest that it will stop, which l did, he give me the progestrone injection and folic acid. The rest is history. But l believe some good doctors could save the situation from the early stage.


at Itiade
Congratution, your testimony is a proof that God is still in the business of doing good!

l dont believe its a case of cerclage, l learnt that if it happens at 12-13th week l could suspect that. However what ever the case, l believe my God is more than it, l have REST that this year is my year and for everybody here.

Thanks friends!

infact dont be carried away by usual ovulation sign , just do the baby dancing, cause l complained of lack of ovulation the month l look in, however l noticed unusual wetness, but definately not cervical mucus as usual.
