BS BS BS (Part 1)

I didn't see my period in Nov 2018, it was 3 months to my 41st birthday. I knew I wasn't pregnant though I mated with my fiance then but foolishly used contraceptive. Fast forward to Feb 2019, he called off the relationship after I tested negative to pregnancy test but period refused to come . It was later I got to know another lady got pregnant around that period for him .

I started seeing a gynae who suggested I do nothing for 3-4 months to see if my cycle will reset itself . I did series of tests but nothing though the Dr suspected PCOS . I later changed clinic and the new Gynae placed me on 28- day contraceptive of which my period will come after then. It was like this for 10 months , by then it was already 2020.

The reality that I may not be able to conceive was wearing me down. I started performing poorly in the office. It got to an extent the GM who is an Engineer will see errors in the accounts I prepared as a Chartered Accountant. I was contemplating suicide but the thought that my mum ( who stayed with me will suffer) quickly snuffed out that thought .
In June 2020, as usual I went to see the Gynae but he was on sabbatical leave so I met one of the junior gynaes . He was full of concern immediately he reviewed my file and took me to meet the consultant. That's a day I will never forget .He took a look at my file and said;
" Madam, you cant conceive even through IVF"

I was devastated beyond words , taking a look at my face the junior gynae took me to his colleague who then said the best approach is to get pregnant and not searching for monthly period . I started crying , no husband no boyfriend how on earth will I achieve this ?

BS BS BS ( Part 2)

I was placed on clomid and advised when to meet a man, I drove home like craze thinking who I can confide in for solution. I called my cousin in the USA who said I should go to club and look for a man , I screamed and laughed at the same time that I can't ,so I remembered a fellow course mate who have been asking me out. That night I chatted him up that I will be in his place in Delta state for some days ( I live in the south ) , I took some days off work and zoom to Delta. I did this for 3 cycles but only result was a chemical pregnancy and overbloated body , by this time I have resigned from my work because no employer will tolerate my frequent travelling ( thank God I have a side hustling and some investment)

On the 3rd occasion, my elder sister called and asked when will I get married and start bearing children, it was already past my 42nd birthday. I cried and called my cousin again who then suggested IVF. Hence the IVF journey began.

I did 2 cycles in a hospital in Lagos , there it was discovered I had blocked cervix . This was operated on before the transfer but both cycles failed . So I came to NL and discovered the IVF trend . Note that, the sperm of friend in Delta were not motile but he kept saying I took him to places where they lied to him so I decided to go for donor sperm .

Then I changed to another IVF clinic in Abuja, this I noticed were more patient and professional in their approach. They were not overwhelmed nor pricey like the one in Lagos . After the 3rd trial, I had twins gestation .I was elated .

Mamas pls help , I have not been lactating since . What can I do pls ?

At Week 10, scan showed one of the twins has stopped growing at Week 7. Since then my heart always pound anytime I go for scan. As a result of this , I kept the pregnancy news to myself. None of my family members knew including my mum who stayed with me I only told them after I was admitted for 9 days to monitor my blood sugar so there was no way I couldn't tell them why I was in the hospital because they were scared . 10 days after I told my mum, she passed on.

The pregnancy was pretty easy, no nausea, no vomiting, no food nor smell adversion . The only thing was the bitter taste on my mouth .

From day 1, my consultant has stated I will deliver via CS due to age, so on Week 37 and 6 days I headed to the hospital but the teaching hospital was on strike so had to use a private hospital. The CS was pretty fast, within 5 mins I heard the cry of my baby , only the stitching took time .I was 45yrs, 3 month and 14 days old.

I was discharged 2 days later immediately it was certified my daughter didn't have jaundice.

Yesterday was her naming ceremony, indeed it was worth it and God is God .

MY BIRTH STORY

I honestly do not know where to start but I hope I'll be able to make some sense at the end of this story tho.

I figured out I was pregnant in October when we travelled for a function in Lagos. And as a result of the challenges my husband and I were facing we agreed we wouldn't keep it. We had concluded we weren't ready for a second child and so.. I visited our doctor there for an abortion. It was successful (IMO) and when we returned to Abuja we carried on with our lives.

Fast forward to November, I didn't see my monthly visitor (he wasnt even in town so i wasn't sexually active) I went for a scan and I was Pregnant!!!! Okay... I accepted it in good fate.

Then in December my husband and I were having a discussion, he mentioned some of the issues he was currently facing with his car and inability to sell our house in Kuje. He needed money to fix the car so he could work and be able to cater for me and the kids. He wanted me to borrow some money from fairmoney for him and he'd pay back in February when the house is sold. I had concerns, first the money was a lot and the interest rate was high but he wasn't bothered. I proceeded and then wired it to his account.

December 26th, I found out my husband was preparing to go settle down with someone else, A girl he had denied knowing. I was devastated. This was where my depression set in. I was suicidal from the 3rd month of this pregnancy till the 6th month. I somehow got a Job when I was 5 months gone but stopped 2 months later.

I wasn't feeding well, I couldn't concentrate, taking my routine tabs was an issue, Living was hard and all I wanted was Death. I would question God, why me? I would starve the whole day, I fed once a day Sometimes.. Nothing seemed interesting but my son.. He was always looking out for Mummy.

Third trimester, I was getting used to being strong. Everything else was going well till we arrived the month of May. I wanted to give birth at 37 weeks for some reasons. That week came, passed, nothing! So did 38 week to 40 weeks. I was becoming depressed all over again. How do I tell this baby that I had a ton of bills and responsibilities on my shoulders, remaining in my stomach wasn't helping at all.

I resolved to seeking measures to induce labour. I did the little I could,yet nothing happened. Sunday morning, I woke up crying. I was tired, and fed up. My mums caretaker had called to say he was out of Patience and won't be giving any more grace and my mum was already tired of having me and my son. I knew what she was going through and didn't want to keep staying at home and so I went to church with my son. I got back feeling better, 12pm contractions started. And because I was used to them I didn't take it seriously but it persisted till 3pm so I went to the hospital and pleaded with them to check me. They did, and I was 4cm dilated!

I was super excited! Little did I know it was going to be a longgggggggg ride.. I was alone, and in pains 🥺 till 7pm when my sister came then mum came later. Indeed not all pregnancies are same. Long story cut short, I gave birth around 3am after a long fight. It wasn't easy but we give Glory to God.

I've burnt my boots tho.. Safe delivery to every preggy mama! God will see y'all through

So sorry for what you had to go through 😔😔
