I experienced thesame thing with my son and they said it is normal. so I dont think it's something to worry about

ok thanks mama

Mama's pls my 2weeks baby poos almost at every feed.. should I be worried..He is exclusively breastfed.

FloraEC:
It depends on the type of circumcision done.
My first son I ran warm water on it and applied penicillin ointment until the cotton wool fell and it completely healed. He did gomco method.

My boy will do his own tomorrow, I've not been strong to take him to the hospital.

ok.thanks mama...quick recovery to you.

angeltolly:
I think it depends on the type of circumcision that was done for you. The person that did it should tell you. But i know if it's the ring method, you should apply olive oil often so the ring can drop fast. I did ring for my 2 boys and that was the instruction.

thanks mama

rvpbae:
Water on top wound? Doesn't it sound painful to you?

Some nurses will tell you not to bathe the child sef. Avoid any contact with the site, wear loose diaper. Penicillin will do just fine, I remember we were given vitamin c too then.

ok.thanks mama

Mamas pls help
My darling son was circumcised today.how do I care for it to enable quick healing?I was told to run warm water on it and apply pennicilin skin ointment .hope this should help?
Note:the ring method was used

You can buy prune juice. It aids passing off stool easily especially after delivery. You should be able to get it in any reliable supermarket in Nigeria

I had a pretty smooth pregnancy apart from occasional weakness and tiredness.
Fast forward to 36weeks i increased my walking to help kickstart labour on time..38/39weeks was getting worried that I was yet to fall into labour as I was not a first time mum..met with my doc who asked me to be calm till my due date..due date came and passed yet no sign..finally gave me another week yet no sign...I did scan and my scan was saying post dated..meaning I've passed edd,baby weighing 4.02kg already..I was scared.. quickly gave the result to my doc.she insisted I stay back in the hospital and call my hubby to bring my things.she sent me for virginal examination and membrane sweep.After that they fixed oxytocin drip for me.After a couple of hours labour started...and progressed really fast..I was screaming and calling on God to help me..when my shout became too much..the doc took me to the labour Ward to check again..and confirmed I was fully dilated..pushing started...I pushed and pushed..I was pushing at each contraction yet baby refused to come..I was in so much pain..the nurses were shouting at me to push well as they can see the baby,'s head...one of the nurses helped press my tummy from the up and at the next contraction I pushed with every strength I had left and my baby came out crying..placenta came out too..I was stitched and cleaned up.
I want to thank this great God for seeing me through this journey of 9months..I pray that it will end in praise for every mama here.i also want to appreciate all the Mama's here..it's been an amazing journey with you all.

Cappo@ EloWChi...
Safe delivery to my teamies and other mamas.
EDD:14th July
DOB:24th july

graciamore:
Congrats to all my teamie that have birthed, "july" I need help on this, all scans carries different date, going by my last menstrual circle due date should be 20th july went for scan yesterday and I also saw different date..no sign of labour for me at all.. Baby movement reduced infact I don't feel so heavy like before.. This pregnancy is just different from for the previous.. Senior mama's please come and give me tips as am tired already FloraEC mama Zaynie

I'm having same issue too...this is not my first pregnancy yet I've passed my edd..my doctor wants to give me more time to fall into labour naturally as she said I still have max 2weeks after edd to fall into labour before they start any form of intervention like induction.my doctor is sticking with my LMP date..so I'm doing my best to fall into labour naturally before the last date.
About the reduced baby movement..the scan you did should tell you if there is anything to be worried about.for now I only feel Braxton Hicks,loss of appetite,and baby is deep down the pelvis as I feel alot of pressure.. doing my best to kick start labour.just have it in mind that you won't be pregnant forever and try not to worry too much about it..which date did your yesterday scan give you?
It shall end in praise for us all.

Odiriance4all:
she has already seen a doctor ,, doctor says it is normal that they're part of pregnancy symptoms especially in the early stage, but a drug was prescribed for for her to reduce the vomit but still the vomiting persist. I am beginning to worry because this is our first pregnancy, we are both inexperience

she will be fine..you don't need to worry.just make sure she try to eat in bits and drink water to stay hydrated.

Birth Story

All thanks be to Almighty God for safe delivery. The pregnancy came with different packages ranging from abnormal cravings,Head aches, gum and tooth aches ,ringing in my ears,constipation and nauseaness at third trimester.

EDD according to scan was 7th,15th of July. At 36weeks,went for antenatal I complain about decrease in bowel movements .don't know if it was constipation coz I always drink water. Doctor advice that I should eat lot of fruits and veggies so I increased my water and veggies intake, still no Changes

Fast forward to on the 1st of July (exactly 38weeks), went for antenatal . She checked me as usual and said I should expect my baby any day. That baby has engaged.She counsel me on childbirth and other things. She even said I should have sex with dh that it would help my ministry and quicken labour..hmm...Me that have been lazy about, I was yet to pack my hospital bag. On my way home I bought a very iced zobo, dates and pineapple. In my mind I was ready! . That same week I packed my hospital bag also increased my daily walk, sex was the last thing on my mind but I sha manage do am . All I got was mild cramps and so much tightness and heaviness down below.

On the 5th of July which was on Sunday, I woke up with painful cramps, went to ease myself then I saw thick mucus plug. In my mind I was like "Abi na today baby wan come".....Told Dh about it. He suggested we should go to hospital ASAP.I declined. I said when it's time we would go.that I was not sure if that day was the Dee day.I went on with my buziness. The pain was coming and going. Still bearable tho.

I slept around some minutes to 9pm or there about only for me to wake some minutes to 11pm with painful contractions.I time the intervals between contractions it was 10minutes apart. Quickly, I woke Dh and told him I was feeling labour pains, my guy jumped from bed, and started looking for what to wear... I stood up and was about changing clothes when another contraction came...I didn't know when tears dropped..The moment I felt relieved,I took my hand bag and rushed out, ask him to carry the hospital bag .

When we got to hospital, we were told that the midwife on duty was attending to someone in the labour ward.that we should wait. I glance at the wall clock ,11:32 pm. Whenever contractions hit me I would hold my waist and breathe out aloud. I was wriggling in pains. By 11: 40 I was checked and at 8cm dilation. Not long after the midwife left,I started having strong contractions,it became more frequent. At a point I told Dh to please pray for me. He said don't you have faith. I told him he should just pray for me. He held my hands, while praying another one hit me, I squeeze his hands so hard that he had to stop and say baby sorry sorry. After some time I felt the baby's head crowning. My water burst. I felt the urge to poo. I ask Dh to call the midwife that I want to poo. When she came , she checked and said I was almost there, that if i feel the urge to push I Should not. she left,the next thing I felt poo coming out. it was in massive. I tried to hold myself .I was shaking. The whole place was just messed up. Dh quickly clean me up, spread another Nightingale and hurry to call the midwife. Immediately she entered,she ask me to get up .I try getting up I couldn't. They (Dh and the midwife) assisted me to the labour ward. I quickly lay down before another contractions will come. Everything was set. The moment she said push, I pushed twice my princess came out crying. Weighing 3.5kg.... Later, placenta came out. I started chanting thank you Jesus thank you Jesus.

I yaff hang boot

To the remaining waddling mamas may you deliver safely
To the TTC mamas, You will rejoice soon

[quote author=EloWChi post=91652672]Can you go into Labour without losing your mucus plug?


For my first labour started before I lost my mucus plug...it was when the labour pains started getting intense that the mucus plug started coming out mixed with blood.
