Mamas in the house. Am confused about our EDD.

We have done 3 different ultrascan at 8weeks, 20 weeks and 24 weeks respectively.


Judging with the first scan now...

At 20weeks 2days, we had a scan and scan says 19weeks 6days...EDD was 2 days lesser compared to the first 8weeks scan...

At 24 weeks (judging by the first scan) we had another scan and it shows 23weeks 2days, which makes it 5 days lesser.

Is this normal?
Should we be worried?
Which of the scan should we consider as the most accurate to determine EDD.

Thanks

please go with your first scan as first trimester scans are more accurate... remember +-2weeks,so the other scans are still within range.

bimberry1307:
Thanks sis. From your mouth to God's hearing. It shall be what you prayed for and more.

Amen..thanks sis

Good day Mommas, pls I need help..... Pls can you recommend pregnancy-safe aphrodisiac for me?
Before I got married, I used to be wet during romance with my fiance(now my husband) but I ever since I got married, nothing like that again no matter how deep the romance!
My vagina is still tight and we use sex lubricant every time we have sex.... I want to satisfy my husband
Lastly, I'm afraid of vaginal birth since my vagina is still tight! Can I actually give birth through vagina in this case?
Note:
I actually got married as a virgin
I conceived on my wedding day cos I was ovulating that day
I'm 25 weeks gone

u dont need to worry about giving birth virginally..when contraction starts it will make way for the baby to pass...if at the point of labour and delivery ur doctor notice u can't birth virginally u will be informed..but u need not worry I was also wondering how a baby will pass Tru there when I was pregnant for my first child..but the way it happened I don't even know how to explain it..God is just too much

Good morning mamas. Something sad happened and I felt we all may learn from it. The guy who handles electrical jobs for us just lost his wife during childbirth. The baby survived.He is in police custody as we speak because the wife's family are saying he killed their daughter. Their marriage is less than two years old and the late lady is not up to 30 years.


.
It's being said that she has earlier been diagnosed of multiple uterine fibroids. The doctor advised an Elective CS be done, that any attempt at going into labor and vagina birth may further complicate things.

.
Her dear husband said no to the CS. In his words "My mother gave birth normally, my wife must do same". That's how this lady stayed till she fell into labour at 38 weeks.She wasn't even taken to the hospital where she registered for antenatal, he took her to a prayer house to deliver. He said many women testify on Sunday in church of how they came to church when they were in labour for long and baby came out easily while in the church.

.

That's how the women there (who are not even local midwives) were trying to force her to push. It wasn't long before she started bleeding badly. It was when they saw that she was dieing, that they rushed her to hospital. Then it was already too late,the young lady died on her way to hospital. The same CS they rejected was what was done to bring out the child because they could still detect a heartbeat.

.
All this was happening and the man didn't call any of the wife's family to let them know. The call he made was to tell them about how their child or sister is in d mortuary. The lady's brother's used police to go pick him up after serious beating.

.
.
I am still so pissed because in my opinion, the lady killed herself. As a human being and one in a delicate condition as pregnancy, you have to choose you. Even if that's how the marriage will scatter, so be it.

A doctor had already told u the risks involved with normal delivery based on the medical issues u have, yet she allowed a mere man in the name of husband use her life to gamble. The same man that will marry a fresh and finer woman after one year or less if anything happens to you?


.
.
Why I am bringing this here is so that we can all draw sense from it. It's your life, your body, your pregnancy. Don't allow love blind our common sense or allow wedding ring and Mrs title remove our individuality. Men are very good at choosing themselves, we should do same especially when it concerns your health in pregnancy . If anything happens (God forbid) you will bear the pains. Every pregnancy is to be cherished. Don't use your life and your unborn child to gamble. If you are not ok with anything, stand your ground. Don't keep delicate issues away from your family. Na here u jam the man, your family remains your family. If a man is having the same stance as the dead lady's husband, call a family meeting and let your people know. If he doesn't pay the medical bills, your family and friends can pay. In all, your life is more important. Nobody dies and is buried with their husband or wife. We came to this world alone nd will leave alone.
.
.
That lady would have been alive today if she insisted on CS like her doctor advised. Her husband will be released from cell, after 3-5 months, he would have gotten another babe. That's if he can wait that long. Wheras someone allowed herself to be killed because she wanted to obey her husband. What story would they tell that innocent child tomoro? Because I trust the lady's family to let thr child know the fathers part in the mothers untimely death!
.
.
Am not saying don't obey your husbands, but let's apply wisdom to being married. Think about your parents who have labored over you before you got married, think about your life and all you are yet to achieve. Mrs title is just a small part of life. Don't allow the zeal to stay married by all means make you docile to the point where a man will be the one telling u to do things that are not going to be ok for your health or things that are against doctors instructions.
.
.
I have seen women having sezzz 3 weeks after delivery, when doctors advise u wait 6 weeks. Why? To please their husband. Some take in 4 months after delivery because oga told them not to do family planning, and they relaxed. In the end, you the woman will suffer the consequences. Let's all be wise and choose ourselves and well being in times when it's necessary. I am so angry because the lady that died is someone I know. Maybe her crime in life was loving a man too much to the point of blind submission! Not all the times your husband will mean well for you. It may be out of ignorance as to the severity of the issue, that's when u let him know what's at stake and insist on doing the right thing. If he disagrees, pack a few things and go to your parents house till you are OK. It's better than saying "yes sir, yes my husband" to everything, until you say yes to what will lead you to early death all because you want to please your husband.

Good morning Mama's,sorry i had to quote this long epistle,we have a lot to learn from this ...may God help us to make the right decision for ourselves and our babies.

Deeedeee:
Pls ma'am, at what particular weeks or months can I start taking pregnantcare.

I would appreciate if mummies in the house can be telling us more about the necessary and compulsory things to do especially first time mummy to be.
Thanks in advance.

please start immediately...folic acid which is in pregnacare is very necessary for the growth of your baby especially in first trimester..

Hello mamas,

Good to be back here. My baby girl just clocked 5 months and i just confirmed pregnancy this morning.

Please senior and experienced mamas, what are the necessary precautions and advice to adhere to given my previous birth was via CS as i cant go to the hospital till this pandemic is well under control.

congratulations Mama,start your prenatals like folic acid or pregnacare immediately..you can continue breastfeeding as it has no effect on your baby...you will discuss further with your health care provider on the best method of delivery because your CS is not up to a year.All the best dear and welcome on board.

@Bonita please things have been really difficult for me and my family..The little savings and gift I got have been spent on foodstuff and antenatal visit...please help me..

MumoftheDecade:
Thanks. And these other acronyms?

DH ... Dear Hubby
BS... Birth Story
BA... Baby Alert

And what's the cappo thing about? What's Braxton Hicks?

I just guessed the meanings.

BA is birth announcement. You got the rest.
Braxton Hicks is a kind of tightening felt by pregnant women but is not contraction.just preparing you for the real thing(labour).
Then for the cappo thing,every team comprises of women whose edd falls within a particular month...you can select an active member to help collate the monickers(names) of those in the same team with you.So you can always check on your team mates..lol

MumoftheDecade:
What's bfp?

bfp means big fat positive i.e a positive pregnancy result

Team July...how is the pregnancy journey so far...

It is well

@waveskaaya please show me mercy.i beg u..please I really need this

It is well

It is well
