Plz mama in the d house help! I have been having menstrual cramps on n off very mild and a Little pressure on my pelvis too.but d problem is since yesterday evening I could barely walk. My waist down d buttocks thighs legs and feet are aching so much that I could barely sleep even while lying down they still hurt. Am 38 weeks gone and d baby is now head down. Could dat b d reason? Or is it impending labour? I complained to my doctor yesterday about d stomach
cramps cos I had diarrhea through out 2 days ago and she sed d stooling might have triggered contractions that it's nothing to worry about since am term so she refused to give me any drugs. But d buttocks thighs legs and feet pain started after I left her office and I have until Tuesday to see her again.so am hoping to see if any of you sabi mamas could help me out with what to do or maybe it's part of last trimester package.

Pele.
Have you tried massaging it?

MY BIRTH STORY
Pregnancy period
I conceived miraculously after 2.9yrs of ttc after so many tests, drugs, hospital visits, spending money etc. I had multiple fibroids and was told to do a surgery, i took in unexpectedly the month i was scheduled to do the surgery. The pregnancy period was very challenging for me, at 6 weeks i had high malaria from then onwards one issue or the other. MS was all day sickness for me and no remedy worked for me. i went days without food cos anything i taste must come out even water, i was being rushed to the hospital almost every week to take drip cos of extreme weakness, i could hardly stand without being supported. I lived on A.vomine every 5am bf anything enters my mouth, then i could now eat one plain eko/agidi and cold water for the day. I also took alot of youghurt.

MS lasted for 5 full months and sometimes show face until after 7 months b4 I started eating, I lost so much weight that you will see Belle but won't see who is carrying it grin grin
So thyphoid fever, fibroid degeneration, premature contractions and bleeding/spotting landed me on admission 7 times. I was told the fibroids were getting bigger and have increased to 5 so the baby might not survive. They were also located at the mouth of the cervix causing a lot of pain, I could not stand, sit or walk for 10 mins cos the weight was resting on the fibroids. I was placed on bed and pelvic rest, no work only go to the bathroom and no kpekus (that one pain dh ehen grin tongue tongue).

I was told that VB will be risky for me so at 34 weeks I should come for steroids for the baby then they will carry out cs. Hubby no gree o, see me see undecided lipsrsealed he said his stand is no cs. Na prayers sort that matter o, thank God it was not too late.

The birth
So fast forward to 39 weeks, I went in for a cs after mild drama from dh, he was looking at my pix throughout the night, ha I said to myself. This oga take it easy na, am coming back o.
I had shaved the day before and catheter was put, was cleaned in the theater and given General anasthesia in my iv line. They were praying when I went off, I could only hear my music from afar. I felt like I was in a big spiral tube spinning round and round, I saw myself going up to different places, I saw a garden with flowers, a fiery red place, an ugly giant, my head and tongue felt so swollen. I was told I was shouting Jesus and screaming 4 different times I came out of the anasthesia, they had to give me 50mg 4 times and later switched to a different drug cos I was trying to stand up from the operating table, I even kicked their tools on the table, male nurses were called in to hold me down. My family outside were already crying and praying bcs the whole hospital could hear my screams.

Meanwhile I heard my baby was brought out by 10:45am with cord around his neck, I heard his cry from another world and that was when I started coming back. From unconscious state I was saying thank you Jesus, my baby, my baby. I didn't know that he was brought to me and I prayed for him with all the drs and nurses saying amen. He was taken to my dh who also prayed for him.

Part two of the surgery began, trying to remove the fibroids. 3 were seen, two were removed but the third one was blocking the cervix and had some adhesions so he couldn't remove it. The Dr later asked me how I managed to conceive with the fibroods and adhesions. I was in the theater for almost 2 hours and everyone outside was afraid but thank God for bringing me out alive. I was taken to the recovery room and another pain started, my back was paining me seriously. I was crying and begging them to turn me.on my side but they refused bcs of the stitches, I was in so much pain and was given injections to knock me out. I woke up by 5pm and asked for my baby to pray for him again, I was asking if he is cute .

Post birth
I stayed in the hospital for 5 days after which I was discharged. I fell ill immediately after naming, from malaria to typhoid, low pcv of 24, swollen legs which started after birth, stomachaused by intestinal gut obstruction, stooling and vomiting and thrombosed heamorrhoid. Ha, na only me waka come? Was admitted for another 6 days and did a mini procedure to unclot the haemorrhoid. I could not feed my baby and he refused to take formula, when I hear him crying I will start crying too. I had to beg them to hold him beside me and I started breastfeeding while lying down. I was discharged and told to be on a strict liquid diet for 3 weeks. Still on it but am very strong now, thanks to God.

I appreciate all the Mam's here who have kept this thread alive, I learnt so much. Thank you for your prayers and encouragement. Team June like no other, thank you all. I pray for all the ttc and waddling Mama's, we shall read your testimony soon. Porting to the new born thread but will peep in here from time to time, vigilante is so real. God bless you all

God really had you. Firmly sef.
Congrats and enjoy motherhood.
May your son always make you happy and proud. Amin

zaynie:
Congrats once more, mama Please is your middle name sum-Mary? See how you folded 3 days drama

Lol, I'm such a lazy narrator.

StrongWoman333:
Wow congratulations mama you try o why did you opt for general Anastasia instead of spinal? I'm so scared of that general... Is it haemorid abi haematoma? That thick cloted blood one side post operation abi? Mehn I had same experience 7 days after operation they had to puncture a hole again for everything to come out they said if they don't, it will cause the cs site to break down open again I thank God cos all is healed now and I've even forgotten my pains. I don't even know which one is more painful between v delivery and cs women are really trying. Thank God it ended in praise for you. Kisses to baby for me

VD goes through the pain before delivery.
CS is afterwards and like any surgical procedure, complications can arise.
I do think this happened cos you both had 2 major surgeries at a go.

joiful:
Lol, I'm such a lazy narrator.

Lol....

Happychildlove:
d cold water do affect baby at birth, it gives them cold after birth,it happened to my baby had to start giving him panda cold immediately , I was just blaming my self for taking too much of cold water , moderate is d key

Hmnn was it immediately after delivery your baby was affected or after spending some days on earth? Are you sure its cos of the cold water you drank? I'm yet to see any effect on my baby though. Well different strokes for different folks. It is well

Congrats once again mama.

[quote author=booqee post=69280920]my hospital asked my hub if he wants to take it home or if they should flush it. He requested they flush it, and he was asked to follow them to witness the flushing. [/qu
flushing? so it can he flushed.
thanks for your contribution

Thank you mamas for the interesting and intriguing BS. May the name of the Lord be praised forever, amen.
I witnessed a dead woman come back to life today.
She was brought to church on a bike already dead with foam coming out of her mouth.
She was stretched out and very heavy to carry.
We were all praying and asking for mercy. After about 15 minutes, the woman came back to life. Come and see cries and tears of joy from everyone.
The moral of my story is that God is Alive and will always answer us when we cry out with a sincere and desperate heart.
My faith in God and Jesus Christ increased in leaps and bounds today.
I'm yet to get over what I witnessed today.
I just want to say thank you Jesus one more time.

Who doubts the efficacy in the name and the blood of Jesus Christ? The blood still has miraculous power!

it was immediately, u know how children breathe when they have cold and he was having running nose too, didn't experience it with my 1st baby cos I couldn't take cold things . yes different strokes for different folks will agree with u, like trouser I dare not wear it from 6wks cos I won't be comfortable till I put to bed

Birth story

I thank God for his mercies, this pregnancy has being filled with drama.
My edd was 5 and 7 july according to scan n lmp.
Spent 2/3 of my first trimester hospitalized due to severe ms.
Half of my 2nd trimester on intermittent bed rest due to cramps
My 3rd I was already waddling by 7months.baby's head dropped early.i couldnt bend and I was as lazy as slob eh.
I was having frequent BH contractions. It became normal sef to me.
I stopped driving.uber and taxify finish my money eh!. chai!.

Fast forward to 20 june.after my ANC. I decided to finally shop and pack hospital bag incase of emergency as if I knew.
On sunday 24th june.i was on call..so I prepared went to work by 8am, while at work I was having my usual false contractions or so I thought.
So inbetween attending to my patients I will jus lie down when I could to get a little relief. I was jokingly telling my colleague 'this kain busy duty I go soon born for una for hia'. We all laughed about it.i now said I was going to ask my ogas for the day off on monday cos that sunday had being stressful so I dont deliver before my time.

I closed by 830pm.hubby came to pick me.when we got home.i prepared dinner, we ate, the contractions came back.i just took a bath and told oga am going to bed early, that probably due to the stress, the BH contraction is back.

Went to bed by 10pm couldn't sleep, every 45mins this contractions will come. Ahhah! Which kain false contractions get time like this, went to the bathroom checked. No show, no mucus plug, no water.God help me oo. Went back to bed. 12am contractions every 20mins.chineke! This can't be false again na, went to the bathroom, still no show, no mucus plug, no water. I started praying 'God please I don't understand anymore, am sorry i wanted to skip work ooo, pls just let this contractions stop oo, I will go to work tomorrow' for where.i woke hubby please gimme paracetamol. He asked are u in labor I said I dont know ooooo, should we go to the hospital? I said I no.
1245am contraction becaming longer and every 5mins. I told hubby hospital ooooooo.i had pulled my pyjamas n thrown oneside I was walking to n fro the parlor praying. Oga jus grabbed one free gown threw over my head I just put one hand in , open the door started walking down stairs barefoot.Dh was lke wait ur slippers.i didnt even ans.when the contractions come.i jus pause n grab the railings.my sister carried my box.thank God I packed.

Got downstairs opened the door I climbed in, dh realise I forgot my hospital card, he asked my sister to close the car door wen I go in since i was now moving in slow motion, the contraction was every 1min n lasted 10secs longer.and den ran in to get my handbag

As I jus put one leg in, another contraction came with the urge to poo.as I pushed,my water broke n baby head came out.i just shouted my baby is coming oooo, next 30secs senod contraction baby body slipped out.i jus held my baby crying my baby is here ooo.my sister almosted fainted .she screamed out my whole neighbourhood out from their sleep.hubby ran down stairs carefully moved the other leg in the car closed the door and drove james bond to the hospital.
As God will have it all the estate security was still at their duty post by 1am.the opened the gate fast.we went to the nearest hospital.wen the gate man saw how hubby dove he ran away from the gate probably tinking it was robbers. I just told hubby lets go to my hospital pls.we raced down there.got the nurses.they came to the car cut the cord.took baby for suctioning n cleaning.
Then helped me to the labour room where I delivered the placenta and was stitched.

Tank God for his mercies.he is really a faithful God.

You couldn't have said that any better sis. If only we can learn to persevere just a little more while holding on to our faith in God and in His Son.
You see, that woman would have been lying in the mortuary by now if not for the prayers and faith of God's people.
Glory Halleluyah!!!
