My BS, My testimony (part. 1)

The 3rd of September started like every other day, woke up heavy with heart burn, went about my normal activities, and because I suffered bad heartburn the previous night, decided to eat my last meal by 5pm, didn't know God was preparing me for the emergency CS that I would eventually have that day.

GENESIS
At about 12.30 pm I got up to ease myself, got back to my bed and just before I dozed off, felt a very sharp pain, took it as one of those things and tried to continue sleeping, but I started feeling like I was weeing on my body, my pant was wet, I remember mumbling 'has d every 5 mins weeing started already'?, got up and went back to d toilet, only to discover I couldn't hold d 'urine' coming out. It was just pouring.

My mind said 'ebony13 its your water' and I was like 'taaah, shut up' but when the water wouldn't stop flowing, it dawned on me, I got scared, woke my hubby up and then started crying. I was just 32 weeks. I wasn't ready. Hubby calmed me down and we decided to go to d hospital in d morning.

The next thing I felt was bam! Contractions! I panicked, I cried, asked God why me, after all I went through to have these children. Timed the contractions it was coming every 15 mins, then every 10 mins. We had to leave for d hospital immediately. On getting to the hospital,Contractions had become very painful.

I alerted d nurses, nurses alerted d doc, and running around began. They had to put everything in place. At this time I was already contracting every 3mins, started vomiting, shouting down d place. The nurses kept saying breath through your mouth, I tried it and it didn't work Nada. They came to check for my babies heartbeat and got only one, I noticed them giving themselves d look but I was in too much pain to ask. Another nurse came to check, same thing, one heartbeat. Before finally a doc came to check and got both, tears just started pouring from my eyes

During the contractions, I was really scared because I still had my cerclage on, I was screaming 'I don't want my cervix to tear o', the next thing I knew my body started pushing with each contraction. I started screaming
' I'm pushing o, its pushing me o'
That was when everyone started doubling up their speed and I was wheeled to the theatre. The time contraction started and when I started feeling to push was just about 2 hrs. I remember asking one of the nurses, ' why is it so fast? I thought they said ftm labour isn't fast'? Amidst contractions o.
In the teatre, another drama started

Wow!!!

Presva and blessedmum!

Easy does it for postnatal recovery ok! *take warm hugs both of you* for the swollen feet, u still have retained fluids. Drink a lot of water and pass urine frequently, it will go down. If you have episiotomy pains, hot or cold remedy does it for me. Either I use ice to numb the area or I fill my bath tub with hot water and add salt, then soak inside like a bubble bath. These methods gives me absolute comfort. Also, anytime u want to pee, pour water as the pee is coming out so dat u won't av a burning sensation.

Also try and reduce stress. If u re stressed, you won't lactate well and postnatal depression will set in.

You are doin great mamas ok!
Thanks Sis, I have decided to take things easy o no unnecessary stress again, mine is CS recovery so no hard task for now .
I don't have issue with lactating d thing deh overflow sef bt my dear son can suck for Africa. My swollen feet is reducing drastically.

Hmmmm..my MIL is around and has helped bath him for some days now. Hair oil might be the culprit cos he comes back to me looking very "shiny" embarassed
Lol. Now we know what's causing it. Sorry it's diplomacy that can help you with this but hopefully mama will agree to reduce the oils when she sees it is preventing his skin from breathing

Kittana:
We're in our 23rd week and scans just keep changing my EDD. The mata has tayad me. It's been doing backward re-adjustments and the last I checked, EDD's now Feb 3rd from 6th the last time...But naaa, I refuse to be deported to Feb just yet. You should prolly just fill in Jan 31st as my EDD which is from LMP/hospital.

LO's movements are more than just flutters now. They increase if I relax backwards on a chair or lie on my back for even a second. Lil wonder why the sonographer reported that he/she's frankly breached at the time and couldn't even figure out the gender, as chairman was "sitting". He/she may flip as much as he/she wants sha, so long as he/she flips in the right direction when he/she has to come out.

Also, I now have some semblance of a bump, because only gooood-eyed strangers have been hailing me thus far. It came to be in just one night during the 21st week, I promise.

Decided to find trouble by asking a carpenter how much a wooden cot would cost me and he went -- 55k oo. Hehee. I was just like, surely you just arrived from Serbia, bah? Maybe you did not hear that Jonathan has since returned to Otuoke.

@Sixx
Dis my teamie wit her humorous use of language! Luv dt. D carpenter obviously thinks ppl shit money nowadays. I am thinking u might hv an anterior placenta hence d not feeling much of lo's movements bt knw dat lo is not only flipping bt also summasaulting n kicking hard were he is so relax. N hv u considered going wit Feb edd since u now hv 2 scans wt dat, u knw u ttc so u may not knw wen e enter...wat do u think? Plus I hv had a fracas wt anoda cappo over somthing lyk ds cry

PresVA:

The problem was that I didn't prepare my mind for after birth pains, even to pass gas or faeces was so painful. .. To even laugh, my Episiotomy site go dey pain me grin angry

And No, I'm not stressed. . the only thing I do is to breastfeed baby .. my breastmilk flows very well..

We're very much better now..

thanks again dear..
As regards passing faeces what helped me was that I ran away from strong food, what I take mostly is pap and moinmoin, though I have started taking my normal food back.
It's like this Episiotomy pain is similar to CS pain coz I remembered then laughing and coughing wasn't an easy something for me, I had to take it slowly whenever I wanted to do any of the two bt I thank God I can laugh and cough well now.

Yaayyyy! Don't you think the those medications would be too harsh for baby skin. Tetracycline is an antibiotic and our skin has normal bacterial flora that helps protect the skin from invasion, won't this deplete them and expose the skin to infection? Skineal is a steroid cream and should not be used for long periods making it ineligible as a regular cream. I doubt if it's even advisable to use on baby skin. Anyway I believe those in the medical field would add their thoughts, these are just mine.
