Hi dear, cold water was what was discussed during my last ANC the midwife said it's a misconception cold water wouldn't do u or the baby anything.
But I had a church member that just gave birth she said she drank cold water a lot that immediately she gave birth the kind of cold that greeted her was no joke. She said it was as if she was deepen into a freezer all her teeth were shaking.

I don't think they are related. A lot of women experience shaking and shivering uncontrollably after birth. It is usually predominant in women that had an epidural or a spinal. Some say it is as a result of shift in hormones, some say it is as a result of the shock of giving birth. It usually wears off after a while. Definitely not due to drinking cold water.

I lost my baby. Pls pray for me, I'm in serious pains, labor for 3days to bring him out (still birth)
He left me all alone n went bck to heaven.

Nooo! So sad. God be with you at this time.

what are the chances a girl is pregnant if she starts demanding for too much food

Pegyygee, so sorry for your loss. I feel ur pain, I know the pain u going tru. Lost my baby last yr November at 6month pregnant so I know the pain u feeling. May God compensate u for this great loss. Pls cry but give praise to God anytime the pain keeps stabbing. As a Muslim we are made to understand that if viel of the future is open to us, we will always give thanks instead of waiting or crying in any situation cos God doesn't do evil . On the day of yaomal kiyamoh (resurrection) babies will stay by the entrance of aljanah and Allah (SWA) will ask babies that died at birth or before birth to go into paradise but the baby will say not without my mother, after the third time saying it, Allah will ask the baby to go pick the mother and enter his kingdom after Allah mercy. It is a saying by Almighty and Almighty God, doesn't tell lies. Pls cry little and give thanks to God anytime the pain swims in. The good lord is with u, he will wipe tears and ease your pain. "FAINAMAH ALYUSRI YUSROH" meaning AFTER EVERY PAIN COMES EASE. It is well with u. Peace

Congrats blessedmum, simababe and all other mama's that put to bed. may God bless your los.

Peggygee am short of words and so pained. I know no amount of words will make you feel better but it's well, God will comfort you immensely.he will surely give you double for you troubles.

The Lord is our strength

Please please please. I implore all mothers here to insist on a jaundice test for our babies before leaving the hospital to avoid stories that touch. I wanted to share my experience with neonatal jaundice after Liftedhands mentioned her niece's case, but I decided to wait till all of it has passed so that I don't jinx myself....Lol, I know I know, I'm African like that.

Mamas, please, let us always insist on the hospital we birth type baby's blood after birth, compare it to mothers own and then carry out a jaundice test before we get discharged from the hospital. Here is my experience, It was only God that saved us. And thankfully now, everything is behind us. After baby E.J's birth, he was sleepy and lethargic and would not eat. I noticed his eyes were a bit yellow but wasn't too worried. The next day, the yellow was very pronounced and I mentioned it to my mother in law. His pediatrician came and ordered bloodwork and there it was discovered that his bilirubin level was 17!!! Jeez!

Immediately the staff swung into action. He was wheeled into the NICU. 7 bilirubin lights were placed on him and also a bili blanket was placed underneath him. His cord was completely cut off and tubes put in. When I asked why, they said it was because he might need an exchange blood transfusion and they needed to be ready. That was when they told me he would need to be transferred to Valley Children's Hospital in Madera, cos they can't handle the transfusion at the hospital where he was born oo. I nearly cried blood. My baby was sick and I can't do nothing. The doctor called the other hospital and in 50 minutes they were here, they flew in with an air ambulance. My child had to be airlifted the children's hospital. We drove after them and went to meet them there

Give it to American hospitals, before we got to the hospital, treatment was already ongoing. He was placed on bilirubin lights and a bilirubin blanket and had already received a dose of IVIg. They also inserted a feeding tube in his nose. That sight is something I'll never forget. This is my child, barely 24 hours old and already going through this. They were testing his bilirubin levels every 4 hours. And by the next day, his level had reduced to 14 or 15. It continued decreasing everyday and gradually they began to remove the lights until they removed it all. He started eating and became more and more awake and alert and playful. He even removed the feeding tube in his nose three times. Thank God!

We spent almost 2 weeks in the hospital and I do not wish that experience on my enemy. It was especially tough cos I had to leave my newborn in the NICU while I go to my hotel room to sleep, I so much wanted to hold him and bond with him but I couldn't. So mothers, please always insist on a bilirubin test for your newborns. I also got to know what caused him to have so much bilirubin in him. It was because of something called ABO incompatibility. You see, I'm blood group O+ and hubby is B+. E.J got his Dad's B+ and while he was inside of me, his blood crossed through into my bloodstream. Anybody with blood type O+ or O- reacts in a certain way when other blood types are introduced into their bloodstream. They begin to develop antibodies to attack the presumed foreign blood group which in this scenario was my baby's blood. So while he was in-vitro, he was fine. The moment he was born, my antibodies in him started breaking down his red blood cells which caused his severe jaundice. And because his liver was so young, it could not keep up with filtering out the bilirubin.

Thank God he was diagnosed and treated fast and in a timely and aggressive manner. He received tons of phototherapy and 3 doses of IVIg. God bless America Mehn, cos I am pretty sure the story would have been different if this was Nigeria.

Congrats to blessedmum, simababe and other mamas that have put to bed.. God bless your Los


It's well peggygee ... God will give you double for your loss.. Please be strong. .

Why not run a pregnancy test to know if she's, instead of making assumptions. .

MamaOO thank God your baby is fine now. Jaundice as mildly as its being taken could turn fatal in a blink of an eye, mehn that level was high o. Don't worry you and your baby have got all the time to bond! You two will.

Has she missed her period yet? Very possible to start exhibiting Pregnancy symptoms that early as every woman is different. However it could also be a sign of pms- pre-menstrual syndrome? Put your mind at ease and go to a pharmacy and get 50 naira test strip or to a laboratory for a blood pregnancy test. Try not to do any thing nasty bro.
