Lmaoo! I thought i was the only one. I halved the recommended dosage too and would pray over it before giving him. My inlaws would rather do herbs for everything- they made herbs worth 10k for me because i wasnt lactating. Wooo! I no drink one spoon from it after they forced me to go to the herb seller. No regrets,abeg.

swear!!! No regret ooo... Better safe dan sorry.

They are different ma, kafura is used as agbo for jedi jedi in kids while camphor is used to chase mosquitoes. Even both smells different.

Happy New year mamas, the light of God will shine on our path through the year in Jesus name. Safe delivery, joy, more money, more babies, good health, sound mind and all we desire is ours for the year by the special grace of God

Sorry about the loss. What's the reason for evacuation?

Your doctor or place of scanning can recommend one that they know.

Bobbyunitedfc:
Happy new year family, please I need a recommendation for a good hospital for evacuation

I thought you wanted to wait till next week to confirm the heart beat stuff in another place.

Pls confirm again before you make a decision.

What do u mean by evacuation?

Since the pregnancy is early,all you need are the necessary tablets to help remove it. After which your wife will do scan to check if it all left,which most times it will because it is still early.

I won't advise anyone doing d&c or this evacuation u keep mentioning as I don't know what you mean by that.

I know it is not easy for u guys,keep strong dear. Very soon,sooner than u think,another one will come ok even if this one fails.

I am dropping my own birth story.

A tall slim baby girl�(3.5kg)

I got married February 2018(trad/court) hubby went back to base after that, i was staying alone, in October 2019 we did white wedding and after that i saw my period for November not knowing it was not a normal period, the blood refused to stop i kept spotting for over 3weeks and by then hubby was already preparing to go back to his base and i needed to follow him to Lagos where he will board from, we went to hospital and i complained of the spotting the Dr. Was not taking it serious.

when i came back from Lagos the spotting continued, i did pregnancy test with strip and it was Negative, later i also went to ABJ for an official meeting when i came back the spotting became serious by then we are already in the middle of December, so i have to ask around of a good hospital i can use because we just relocated after wedding, someone directed me to Salvation Hospital & maternity Owerri, when i got there they check my hormones, did blood pregnancy test which came out positive, i was sent for scan but after the scan no heart beat i was sent for evacuation that was on 31st December 2019.

OH i entered 2020 with so much pains, regrets, sorrow but i didn't give up, it was also discovered there was fibroid of 2.2cm on the surface of the womb, though Dr assured me is not the cause of the miscarriage that is insignificant, he encouraged me to go and keep trying and and also allow my self to heal well.

I went back home but wasn't trying as hubby wasn't around and covid changed all his plans on coming back.
The Dr kept checking the fibroid each time i come for check up it was same size then around April 2020 they stopped seeing the fibroid in my scan, which Dr concluded it was pregnancy hormones that made it grew at that first time, so i continued my normal life/work.

Hubby later came back January 2021, and we started trying again, January nothing, February nothing March nothing, i went back to the hospital my Dr said am too young to be giving myself such headache, he encouraged me to put my mind at rest as my hormones are balanced that pregnancy will come. He gave me Vit E and Vit C 1000mg each, i went home took it for the whole of March.

I was expecting my period on 4th April (easter Sunday) on that morning of easter i couldn't sleep all through night, was having hrt burn which i Later took water melon and it stopped, then menstrual cramps started serious one, i was even crying all through the night i kept checking to know when blood will start coming out but nothing, instead i was spotting, i couldn't even go to church or cook on that easter Sunday because of the cramps, later that Sunday i did pregnancy test with strip and it was negative, on easter Monday no period yet though the cramps reduced, on Tuesday no period, Wednesday no period but then i was already sick like i have malaria, on Thursday i went back to the hospital and they did blood test and it came out positive, Chai i and hubby were so happy.

AT 6weeks morning sicknesses started, vomiting started, the pregnancy showed me pepper, thank God where i work i have my own time, i can go to work at any time without someone questioning me, the morning sickness/vomiting was so severe sometimes i go to the hospital to take drip. I don't eat anything, i don't sleep, my bones were so weak, some days i will cry all through asking God thought this pregnancy was supposed to bring joy/happiness to me why did he allow me to be suffering this way

Hubby canceled all his traveling plans for 2021 because i can't even do anything for myself, he baths me,he cooks for me, he goes to the mkt for our shopping, he does everything for me,
There were days/weeks i don't taste water because once it touches my mouth i vomit everything in my belle.
God the belle show me pepper.
It continued like that till 7months when the vomiting reduced, morning sickness stopped entirely, i vomit like 2times in a week.
My belle was very very long people thought is twins, the belle was too long for a first timer singleton, even some dr kept asking if is multiple ����

It got to a stage that walking was difficult, i can't walk very far because my waist and back aches, Bike people no dey gree carry me again �����, i use ride most times.

I passed my first date which was 11th December, on 15th December i went for antenatal and Drs were considering admitting me, he said he doesn't want to induce me, though they later released me to go home and decided to work with my second date 19th December they said if nothing happens i should come with my bags on 19th December. They did scan too and the cervix was still closed as at that 15th, i went home, i stopped at my office bought plenty banana and groundnuts, when i got home i met hubby at home we ate the banana, i decided to lie down and rest but i was crying cos i was already tired(all my body scratches, the weight was just much, my legs swollen, my foot so painful, always hot can't sleep without fan) when hubby noticed i was crying he was like should we option out for CS, that he don't like the way i cry these days because of discomfort, i told him lets wait till 19th the Dr gave that if by 19th nothing happen we can option out for CS, around 9pm hubby gave me garri and egusi soup for dinner, after dinner we slept off but because i don't sleep i usually seat on a back chair all through the night and use pillows/stool to raise my legs.

Around 3:53am i noticed my baby was pushing and i ve mild menstrual cramps, around 4am i went to pee then put some clothes in my washing machine after that immediately i stepped out from the bathroom i felt something gush out from my body at first i feel is urine because at that stage i usually leak urine, so i went to the room sat on my chair but after about 5mins i was feeling wet so i pulled my pant to check and i saw pinkish blood mixed with cervical mucus, i called hubby to see it, he said is SHOW but then i wasn't having pains just my baby pushing, he boiled water for me to bath after bathing i dressed up, called my elder sis to come on whatsapp so i could show her that thing immediately she saw the pix she said i should proceed to the hospital that i am in labor, so hubby prepared by then blood was already coming out, at 6am we started going to the hospital, as i was going down the stairs i felt something else gushed out and i looked on the floor and saw one kind yellowish water, we got to the hospital around 6:30 i was asker to go to emergency, when i got there i met the dr on night duty, he brought my folder started asking some questions and after that he tried to counsel me and also prepare my mind for the journey, he said as a first timer that labor can go for 72hrs and after 72hrs and i don't deliver that they will now intervene, immediately he said that i told him God forbid that i will deliver before 12pm, that if he knew what i ve passed through in the pregnancy that he won't say that to me, everybody there started laughing, after that he asked me to lie down so he can check me, he checked and said i am already 4cm gone that i am a woman if faith, he asked hubby to bring my bags and they admitted me, around 7:30am the main contractions started, God i don't know what to use and compare the pains, i couldn't stand, i couldn't lie down, i couldn't seat, i was just holding my husband i don't let him out of my sight because his presence gives me lot of strength/hope, around 11:55am they brought rice and stew for us hubby ate his own, i tried eating mine but the pains was unbearable hubby rushed and called the nurse to come and check me(apart from the one dr checked nobody checked me again) the nurse came and held me she said we will go to the labor room, by then i couldn't walk even to wear my slippers was a problem my legs were hurting badly, the nurse held me, i begged her to give me pain relief she said no, when we got to the labor room i couldn't climb the bed, they helped me climb,she checked and said my baby's head is out, they brought out delivery mat and other things and placed, went back to my room and collected my baby's cloth and diapers, by then i was already having the urge to push but they said i shouldn't push till they ask me to, they turned me to lie on my side with another nurse holding my legs together so i won't push, after about 30mins they checked again and now said i can push when ever have the urge, i pushed the first one the nurse said i am pushing with my chest, i should push like i want to poo strong poo���� i tried pushing again she now came to where my head is and push my head up and asked me to look at my navel, immediately i looked at my navel while raising my heads up my baby popped out...... Around 12:25pm

A slim, dark, tall baby (nurses were shouting that she is very tall) they u cleaned her up and started stitching me up, we left the labor room around 12.45pm and was discharged the next day being 17th.

We re here healthy, just the episiotomy that is still showing me pepper, Oh the pains no be here, anybody with solution on how to heal fast should help then my tommy, the long tummy is yet to enter inside.

We re doing just fine apart from colic pains, she sleeps well at night and during the day.

Evacuation is done for later pregnancy….the miscarriage can happen naturally if truly there is no heartbeat or using drugs…either ways your doctor will advise…but wait it out a bit and go to your doctor

Happy new year family, please I need a recommendation for a good hospital for evacuation

For the vagina pain, just keep taking your drugs,I won't advise u to sit on hot water since I don't know the kind of stich they gave you. Confirm from the hospital if u can,some stich open when sitting on hot water.

A slim, dark, tall baby (nurses were shouting that she is very tall) they u cleaned her up and started stitching me up, we left the labor room around 12.45pm and was discharged the next day being 17th.

We re here healthy, just the episiotomy that is still showing me pepper, Oh the pains no be here, anybody with solution on how to heal fast should help then my tommy, the long tummy is yet to enter inside.

We re doing just fine apart from colic pains, she sleeps well at night and during the day.

Oh mama your BS too sweet o . Congratulations ma. I'm sorry I don't have any advice to give as I'm just a FTM in my first trimester haha congrats ma

Hello mama,

I trust you are well.

Just checking on you.

chicaO2:
Thank you so much Mamas. I have read and re-read your advice. Yes, I intend to connect with Island Maternity tomorrow and register as a 2nd Option while I keep holding off till I start feeling what looks like contraction ( I didn't get to labour in my previous 2 children, so not sure what that truly feels like). Baby's original due date is January 2, so I will hold off (baby willing) till near that time and test again, if still positive, I go for Island Maternity. For now, I'm on all my meds and immune boosters.
Thanks again.

Glory be to the Lord for all your happiness and ours

May mamas, hope we are waddling in grace? Please ask questions so that Sabi mamas can assist us with answers. May this journey be a successful one with perfect delivery.

Hello May mamas and happy new year to us all. May this year be a year filled with joy and celebrations in our homes, we shall all deliver safely and both mothers and babies voices shall be heard in Jesus name.
Just checking on us all and I believe we're all doing great and waddling in God's goodness.

Happy new year mamas. So happy to read all the BA and BS. Congratulations are in order. Thank God for the safe deliveries. May your babies always bring you joy and happiness.

Team February please allow me to rant. I really can't say what's going on with me. It's like my baby is constantly sitting on my vjay bones. I dread lying down to sleep at night or even day time because to turn or get up, I'll have to take about 5 minutes to adjust amidst pains down there. Sitting down for long too is not a good idea. If only I can just stand and sleep.

It's worse when I'm active for long like when I prepared Christmas and New Year meals. I wont be able to walk like a human being for like 2 days.

My husband is already thinking that we should head to the hospital since I said the pressure down there is becoming much. I laughed sha, me that is just going to be 36 weeks by Wednesday. But honestly, some times, it feels as though the baby wants to jump out.
When he/she kicks eh, I'll feel it under my right breast and right in my vjay. This baby had better be very tall or else...

Let me stop ranting. But honestly, I'm counting down seriously.
Roll call coming up!

TEAM FEBRUARY 2022

Happy New Year teamies! The year we have been waiting for. Thank God we made it!
