How do u kno he s dehydrated? Wot and wot did u look out for

His skin looks dry,when I went to take BCG,the woman that gave him told me his skin is dry and also the doctor of the hospital where I did his circumcision said he is dehydrated. He doesnt play at all. If he isn't sleeping den he must be sucking.

Hello,i had my baby in the US and he does the exact same thing as ur baby. His Paediatrician advised that i supplement his feeding with formula as its obvious he cries cos i am starving him. I am probably not lactating as much as he needs even though i feel like i am. So now, i have started supplementing with formula and he is less fussy right now.

I think that's what I will opt for now.

My baby gave me a serious scare dis morning, I was having serious pain in my stomach but I managed to take cold water and I felt relieved. But kiakia I went to the hospital to complain cos I was still feeling the pain, I was told no problem but I insisted on getting a scan. The scan went really well as I saw my baby having premiership in my stomach. Even the sonographer was saying "this ur baby is Ronaldo o very active!'" That was when my mind was at rest! Apparently it was the food I ate late last night that caused it( when I was hungry nko). The doctor advised me not to eat late that I can take something light if I feel hungry later in the night! May God help us all oooo

IN THE HOSPITAL

On getting to the hospital around 12:30,i was in serious pain. I was checked and the nurse said I'm 4cm gone. That was when I knew I was in trouble. The pain was unbearable that I couldn't lie down. The nurses were shouting on me never to get down from the bed.(see me see wahala,how person wey dey feel pain go lie down ). As a sharp lady,I lied that I want to poo and after several visits,she got me a potty that I should do it right beside my bed.(she caught me )

At 4cm,i began to push and the doctor and nurses advised me not to because it's not yet time. i wanted to pull down the hospital and I begged them to do CS for me but no one listened. That was when all the pain I was feeling turn to power. I stood up on my feet and started pushing real hard. The nurses called the doctor and the 5 of them couldn't get me back on the bed. Then the doctor sent for the people that brought me.

My sister came and she was told to ask me to get on the bed,for where I no answer. My neighbour too shouted at me but I stayed firm to the ground like rock. Then come and see beating,me no feel am sha o but I can see all of them raising their hand up and it landed on me but I dey feel am like paper weight. (If to say I fit catch my GM for office wey dey always act like superman this time,na to break into 2 remain)


Thank God I was the only one in the labour ward that night so I had enough hand to attend to me. Later the doctor started giving me injections and he asked me to lie down to check me and promised me that if it's not yet time I will be wheeled to the theatre. That was wen I laid down on the bed on my own. As the man dey wear glove,all of them hold me for bed,i know say if den see rope that night,na to tie me remain .

I didn't even allow the doctor to check me wen I started pushing again with FULL force,the man just said they should wheel me to the labour room but right there as I was pushing,my baby flew out of me. Thanks to the people who were holding me down cos one of them caught the baby make e no go fall for ground.

Immediately my baby came out my body calm down and my sister and neighbour ran out. The doctor and nurses just dey shake head for me. Me no send dem so far I no feel any pain again. The nurses carried the baby after dem detach am from me and the matron use one style to press my tummy and the placenta too came out. As I lay down like gentle lady dey look dem,na so dem dey put hand inside me say placenta remain small (I no hear well) after searching round dem see am finally. Come and see the whole bed full of blood. I didn't even enter labour room to deliver. The doctor said he had never done this kind of Job before (if a consultant in a general hospital can say this).

My body was cleaned and the doctor was so disappointed to see that I had tear because my baby weigh 2.4kg. He advised me never to try what I did again in my life because I could tear my womb sef. He said had it being the baby was big,we would have been saying another thing by now. He said next time if I know I can't tolerate pain,i should better opt for a CS rather than all the drama I performed.

Dem wheel me go labour room to sew my power house wey tear and that was how I started the journey into motherhood.

Lastly, as I was going to my bed and passed where the nurses dey,after thanking them,one now said jokingly that next year I will meet them here again na so the others reject am say they no pray to dey duty wen I wan deliver again.

To all the remaining pushing mamas,labour sweet so tey I no fit wait to get belle again . May God make yours smooth and easy. Amen.
