Hey mama! Hope all's good at your side. All is good thank you

First of all let me apologise in advance for the plenty questions? But abeg just indulge me in the spirit of easter.. grin Hehehe I had to log off go eat a second breakfast before coming back to respond grin Opo gann lolz

Please how did you/SiL manage to resolve this situation?

Call.ola, please your input will be appeciated. And any other mama/papa who can.

What did you end up using? pampars premium for the first week they were in nicu

Smallest size available, what size diapers were used and how long did baby/babies stay in them for or how long before the average diapers started to fit them well.
We didn't use the preemie size again coz the newborn size fitted just right! It's from 2-5kg and they weighed 1.9

Diaper costs / how long a pack lasted/ number of changes a day. Jumbo pack of 72 cost 10k, minimum of 20 diapers a day between the 3 of them! That was the only pack they used before switching to Molfix giga economy pack of 104 cost 3900

Any challenges and frustrations? What you wish you could have that would have made the whole process easier. More hands to help! 10 nannies would do just right! 3 for each baby and 1 for the mother cheesy Lolz

Thank you, ese pupo, wese, nagode. You are welcome

God bless Amen and you too

Please experienced and knowledgeable mommas. What's the deal with epidural in Nigerian hospitals? Private and public? I'm a ftm and I want to be prepared. I know I other countries; epidural is no big deal so wanna know if one has to request in naija; is it very commonly administered etc.

Also had a myomectomy two years ago; has anyone else had same and gone ahead to have a vaginal birth?? During the myomectomy; epidural was administered and it went well by God's grace.

Thanks for the insight


Myomectomy was over 2 years when i got preggy, and doc didn't allow me fall into labour, on the premise that ........several places are usually cut unlike CS where incision is usually done on the lower part of the womb, ...........he said wasn't the doc that operated on me hence, he didn't know the kind of cut I had, .......talked of risk of uterine rupture, ...........all kinds of doc needed to be on ground if i wanted to go that route in case i needed an emergency CS,.... bla bla bla bla.

In short, the talk was much and that was my first pregnancy ever, having waited for over 7 years tccing. I wanted to to deliver vaginally but at the same time, avoid stories that touch so I jejely went for the CS and God has made me a happy mum today.

My little advice is that you listen to your doc, and whether CS or vaginal delivery, do your check to ensure that hospital and medical personal are equipped and experienced to take the birth of your lo.

On epidural, its still not common in naija hospitals, but some top notch hospitals do it. You need to inform them of your birth plans so that the anesthesiologist can be around for your delivery cos most of them are not resident in private hospitals and need to booked ahead but are always on ground in government hospitals by principle. I don't know if the general hospitals do epidural sha.

Sabi mamas can contribute further

I don't have anyone with me so I can't adopt your method. But If i had someone with me, I'll definitely be leaving him for some hours everyday.
As soon as I get someone I'll definitely be leaving him everyday so he can get used to it.

Not good for everybody. A lady brought her own pregnancare with omega 3 to the doctor in my last antenatal. Doctor told her not to use it because of her history especially because of the oils and some other active ingredient in the medicine. My doctor told her to continue with the routine drugs (folic acid and others) so I think she can make inquiry from her doctor on which one is good for her.


Alright ., cos of history . I used General hospital ifako in Lagos and the consultant said it's okay .

Hello Mamas in the house. Sure we are good today. Pls. has anyone used or presently using the Nigerian Air force (NAF) Hosp. Ikeja? How is their service? though heard impressive reviews but just wanna reconfirm.
Also, is there anyway I can get coconut oil? I had one delivered to me but not satisfied with it. It's colour is yellow like veg oil instead of colourless right? and it smells like d one gotten from fried coconut candy. Don't know if it's pure and its just d mode of extraction or it's not.

Me sef I don tire, that how DH asked last week what the doctor said when i went for ante-natal. I told him Dr said nothing. His expectations are so high, like wanting to hear ''Dr said i will give birth on ...." Dr said i will be admitted tomorrow'' I had to explain to him that until i see signs of labour, i cant be admitted.
Its expected of our dh esp 4 ftm.. My doc said they only give 1wk post due date after that they will know what 2 do..I will also prefer nature to take its course.

BS!!
All through the journey God was faithful, no MS despite d fact dat am a ftm, only dat I treated malaria 3times. Couldn't determine sex 'cos of d positioning for a long time, she was in transverse lie till 36weeks dis got me really worried I kept on praying n talking to my baby as well, by d time I did a scan @ 37 weeks she was in cephalic position already. Again I was tired n couldn't wait to see my baby I started evening walk but was lazy about it, so I started making declarations that my baby must arrive b4 EDD n has to come thru VD in fact Tuesday 'cos one of DH's friend who is my real gee's bday was on Tuesday. Beginning from 34th week I started having dis braxton hicks n from 37th week d menstral cramp keep coming on n off. Fast forward to Wednesday morning around 7:30am I started having contractions felt it was d normal one dat will come n go but it was consistent was exactly 39weeks. So I quickly had my bath n called DH to ask his friend to come pick me up, was even contemplating about carrying my bag thinking dey might send me back. On getting to d hospital around 11am checked n I was 2cm dialated I was admitted the VD examination is painful truely, d contraction kept progressing but was enduring it by 5pm was checked again n was 6cm so d doc said am progressing well so I won't be induced 'cos he was contemplating on inserting d tab. So he ruptured my membrane kai so painful by 9pm I was 9cm dialated was moved to d labour room d pain was unbearable but I kept on enduring didn't shout d nurses were so surprised as to how a ftm cld endure d pain so well was surprised actually 'cos d natural me cant even stand pain for long @ll but was already determined dat it was VD or nothing n was going to conserve my energy till wen its time to push. Felt d urge to poo n push but was told not to, d doc came in @ about 9:30pm there about was told to push @ every contraction I kept on trying naso d nurse said i was only shouting n not pushing dat I should push as if I was about to pass out a hard stool, sudden lay contractions wasnt so strong again as I was trying to push doc said cervix was thin but too tight upon all d kpekus with DH so he had to tell d nurse to add 1ml oxytocin Chai was so scared @ d mention of oxytocin 'cos I knew it was going to be very painful but it helped immediately contractions became so strong again I pushed@ every contraction but I had a perineal tear n was given an episiotomy. I pushed n baby was out was given an injection on d thigh n d placenta was out as well. D suture took over an hour but d area was numbed so didn't feel d pain.Then baby swallowed meconium immediately I remembered ma'am jazzjazz's lo, I got so scared but she's doing fine 'cos doc said staled meconium isn't bad n all was drawn out of her yesterday, by tomorrow we will be having a test for jaundice n God's willing be discharged still not lactating well but its gradually coming out little by little. DH was with me all thru d delivery process VD is painful o d back pain was out of dis world. I bless God in all
Thanks all n save delivery to all mamas

Hello, proudly #TeamJuly#. My EDD is 23rd July,2017 and i am #TeamPink.
My 24th week scan says i may be having a girl but that I should do another scan by 30weeks to confirm.
You remember i wrote about my waiste/ left leg ache? Well, my mum just confirmed to me that she used to have that pain whenever she was pregnant with a girl. So that confirmed to me that I am team pink. I have a boy already,so i am happy about having a girl now.

You are blessed ooo. Some people dey find am dey no see. Some women experience what seems like oversupply during the first few days up to + or - 6 weeks of breastfeeding. The body is just taking precaution in case you are feeding twins or triplets. It will adjust with time to only produce what your baby needs per feed.
If the letdown is to fast you may have to express a little out before latching your baby to the breast.
