The concluding part of my birthstory...
I started having contractions by 9pm but I was watching a movie so I ignored it..when I timed it, it was 7mins apart. So I got on my feet. When the contractions came, I would hold on to something tight and when it goes, I will breath deep nd out..thanks goldenruby for that advice..the pains were still bearable so I stayed at home till 10pm..by then, they were coming at 5mins apart..i held on tight...
By the time I got to the hospital at 11pm and I got checked, the doctor said I was still 2cm and the baby's head was high up.. I just laffed.. I continued with the breathing techniques..by 11.30pm, the pains became less than 3mins apart..i held on to the hospital bench. Expressing the pains on it..i didn't shout..so I had enough energy. I didn't allow to be checked because it was very uncomfortable and laying on my back will make me feel the pains more.by 12am, the pains became 30seconds aparts..father lord in heaven! It took the grace if God not to shout and scream down the hospital..the truth is shouting doesn't do anything..it only makes you feel the pains more.
I got checked and I was 7cm..oh boy! I jumped down from the bed and I scattered eveywhere as the pains came.i ddnt want to shout. I just had to express the pains somhow.after 10mins,i had the urge to push..the nurses begged me not to push yet.i said story. I jumped down from the bed, git on all fours and started pushing.not came out o!i just hissed and git on the bed again.. after another ten minutes, the urge became unbearable and as I wanted to jump down, two nurses held me totebd,two nurses held my legs and I was checked. The head was already crowing. The urge was so uncontrolled that I started pushing.my angel came out by 12.35am screaming.
What I did differently..
I opened up my mind and I had a strong resolve and birth plan..
I didn't joke with my walking after reading about the benefits
I was never idle..always doing things that would push the head down through the pelvis..they can be uncomfortable but the end result was always on mymind..
I was very very scared of labour..i would do anything you ask me to do just to have a painless labour.. but towards the end, I realised fear was the beginning of pa
Nd I casted it out if my mund
At 39weeks, I did a lot of nipped stimulation but it gave me strong contractions..it doesn't work if you are not ready or the baby is notready..i Only used it to get my body ready..
Lastly, the miracles of black seed oil,,once you are sure you are in labour.. real labour not false because if you use it in false labour, it will just help relax your contractions..
When in active labour, take 2 teaspoons of black seed oil, mix I half glass of warm water and honey. Drink it and let your faith do the rest..
For Muslims, take any quantity of zamzam water, recite suratul kurysiyu (11) and drink it..
Please always drop your birth stories. You just might not know who it will help..
Thanks for the prayers. We ate grateful
Ma'am zaynie..may Almighty Allah reward you..
Enkaydewdrop get your ass up and put on your hear piece and start walking..enough if kpekusing..

Are you doing your sitz bath religiously? Morning and night, warm water +salt+ savlon?
When you are done with sitz bath, swipe the site with a swab of cottonwool and savlon.
Are you using your pain meds? Diclofenac...abeg use am.
Also sit on hard, flat surfaces like stools and benches. Sitting on cushions can bruise the place o.

Ma'am,

All is well. I went through same, they called it "Postpartum Depression". Permit me to drop a link here, http://www.postpartumprogress.com/the-symptoms-of-postpartum-depression-anxiety-in-plain-mama-english

I exhibited some of the symptoms but am better now.

Its easy taking care of a baby * u get what I mean*

Make a conscious effort of relaxing your mind and body.

Let your husband in on your emotions, don't bottle it up. Talking helps even though you get to say little per time

I made effort to surround myself with good melodies.

Whatever works for you, please try to feel yourself .

I wish you lorry loads of joy from within***hugs**

Oya talk to mama.
Listen to your favorite track list.
Dance to your fav list.
Take a break ......take a walk.
Watch a funny movie.







You do know your depression might be as a result of having an unplanned CS.
Dont feel less of a woman.
Dont feel like you missed when others talk about VD.
Dont feel like you made your dh spend more than he bargained for.
Dont let anybody form strong woman for you just cos they delivered vaginally.
You sef na superwoman.....your scar is your badge of service.....
Put on your cape and feel fly ojere kiss

Congrats Zimunachimdi. God bless your little one.

Don't be too worried fruitfulvine360 it could just mean a very active baby. If you're using a government hospital you can go get checked by another gynaecologist.

Gennyebere. Probably you should get someone to talk to maybe a professional or just a very good friend. Unburden how you feel, release and speak out all your thoughts.
Listen to refreshing music, try and do things that make you happy, but please talk to someone. It is well with you kiss
Re: Pregnancy Are You Pregnant Or Going Through A High Risk Pregnancy,,lets Talk by marionclaire: 6:00pm On Jun 11, 2016
Gennyebere, Just to reiterate what other mama's have said. You really need to find someone to talk to,would be very helpful if it is your husband or your mum or anyone you are really close to as the talking really helps.Dont try to bottle things up. Let everything out. You can even talk to yourself as long as you are letting your emotions out.
Also,watch movies and if you love music,listen to music especially the ones that can lift your spirit. I dont know your religion but i think all religion has praise songs so sing those songs and you can even cry while singing but i tell you,you will feel better.
Like Zaynie said,it may be due to the unplanned CS but you are alive and your baby is alive so be positive in your thoughts. Try to do things you used to like doing that makes you happy(for me,it is shopping even if it is window shopping grin). You can also go online and read other people's experiences and see how they overcame it



Be strong for yourself and your precious baby!

High heart rate could just mean your baby is very active or you probably took something that made him active.

What did your Dr say?
Even if he says its nothing, you should do another scan soon to be sure that it has gone down.

Calm down, baby doesn't need you agitated. wink

Haaaaaaa!!!!
Since 2 days?
Warm water.....not hot at all!
Warm......almost cool sef.

Oya straight away, get a wide basin ( if you have the sitz bath bowl, better, place it on the WC)
Put the water in it, add salt and savlon.
Sit on it, let your bombom touch the water.if you are using a basin, you can place it on a short stool for comfort.
Sit for like 5 minutes.
Pat the place dry, swipe with savlon.
Each time you wee or poo, clean with water and savlon. Pat dry and swipe.

GenyEbere, there is something called VBAC, I did it, so many mamas here did too.
Besides there are many children that need you to adopt them.
For me, I want 3 birth kids and 2 adopted after my last child is like 5 and they will be age mates so I can train them together.

sitz bath is very very important and it also helps to soothe the area, you use warm water, salt and dettol/savlon and if diclofenac is not included in your drugs kindly endeavour to buy. I am expecting my third child and I had tears with my first and second so believe me you need to start the sitz bath and taking diclofenac because the pain no be joke at all.

Hello kpekusing mamas, I hail you all, I am presently 30.5 weeks gone, proudly team August/team blue.
