Prayer Monday

Our most merciful and ever gracious God, we thank you for a day like this. Be exalted in our mist in Jesus.

We prayer lord that in any way we've fallen short of your glory, Lord have mercy upon us all. Amen

Thank you God for opening our womb to conceive, lord we ask that as you did it for us remember every woman in you waiting room and give them a lasting testimony in Jesus name.

Ever faithful father, ever true God. We commit everyone who is suffering from one loss or the other especially those who recently lost their little ones in your hands, lord give them a testimony that will sound like lies in the ears of people in Jesus name.

Thank you Lord for safe deliveries so far in this thread, lord we ask that as the parents have seen the entrance of these children into this world may they not see their exit out of this world in Jesus name.
All that they will be needing to go through this life successfully, provide for them and their parents in Jesus name. We ask that only the positive declarations that was made on these children in the womb and outside the womb shall stand in their lives in Jesus.

The unlimited God is who you are, therefore O'lord for we the remaining pregnant mothers and those that will be joining us soon grant us all successful pregnancies and safe deliveries just as you've done for the mothers before us in Jesus name.
We declare that on the day of our delivery every of our womb will not be shutdown to delivery, it will open speedily like those of the Hebrew women in Jesus name.
We declare that everyone we shall encounter on that said day will be an instrument in your hands in Jesus name.
We decree that we shall not morn over any mother or child on the delivery days.
Grant financial breakthroughs in every home to carter for our needs and that of the entire family in Jesus name.

Once again Lord, we put our TTC sisters in your ever open hands, they have labour Lord give them all rest.
Grant them their request to conceive and bear children. May they have as much as their heart desire.
Cause every homes that have gone sour as a result of TTC to sweeten again and please rekindle their love. You're the omnipotent God, do that only you can do in their lives and that of their spouses and make their homes filled with the cries and laughter of their own children in no distance time in Jesus precious name we've pray.
A very big Amen

Hello mama's. Thanks for all the mentions, I couldn't reply all but I showed my heartfelt appreciation by liking all the comments. Thanks all for the love and concern, may God be with you and your LO.

I've been on absolute bed rest since Wednesday (the doctor warned me not to do any chores). I was given medications and progesterone injection as well. I take d injection every 3days and I still have more shots to take.I did a scan immediately and I started shedding tears of joy when my LO was playing all through d scan. He was rolling, turning, putting his hands and legs up and the fetal heartbeat was good. I was so happy.

The spotting stopped immediately on Wednesday after d first injection shot. This morning, I started spotting again, this time the blood came out with a colourless liquid. I cried and kept asking why all this is happening to me when my baby is 17+ weeks already. I never experienced spotting from d first day I conceived, why now? Why me? I'm in the hospital now and I'll be going for another scan in a reputable lab tomorrow, the doctor referred us to the lab. It seems I'll be on admission too. I know God will be with me and every mama here.
You will not bury your child. I know it's hard to stay strong but plz try. All will be well and you will carry your baby alive and healthy and at full term.

Please permit me! you got pregnant while still weaning your baby. I thought this isn't possible and that the period of weaning is a reliable way of family planning.

abeg, sabi mamas make una chuck mouth educate me and other curious minds.
Even though I was exclusively breastfeeding, my period came back six weeks after baby. Then it disappeared and returned at six months and became regular. My neighbor didn't get hers back until she stopped breastfeeding at 15 months. So breastfeeding isn't a reliable way of family planning. It works for some and it doesn't for others.

BS BS part 1.

My pregnancy journey:

I got married February this year and took in that same month so to the glory of God I did not have any issue trying to conceived, in fact to some extent I was not happy that it happened that early cos I was hoping to flex small but despite our caution God had his own plan.

MS Palava:

At exactly 8wks I was not the owner of myself, I woke up throwing up every morning, my system couldn't take in any food initially and I was losing weight, only my boobs were gaining weight and was so painful, most times I hold on to it while walking. It wasn't much before I discovered some relief to my ms courtesy of this thread, first cold water did the magic for me and I was so happy, even under heavy down pour I'll be drinking chilled blocked water my mum in-law talk tire that it delays labour I no send her.
My next next discovery was fruits but the fruit own was in phases, I tried all kinds of fruits till I discovered the ones that my system could accept, first was star apple, I can consume a basket full of star apple to the point that every morning you'll see me dragging it with market women, one would be wondering if I have started fruit business and to worsen the matter my tummy was as flat as plate so nobody believes me even if I begged those women to sell for me that I'm pregnant, well I still managed to come back every day with my sack full of star apple without sending anyone.

My next fruit was cucumber which was the bae of them all cos with cucumber I was always full, before after cooking for the rest of the house I will be watching them eat but with cucumber I was good to go, I could stay a whole day without food but fruits, I later discovered mango which I can buy one as costly as #200 then I switch to fresh corn and pear that will make me belge like goat after eating but I still continued anyway cos that was my craving, I threw up after eating all citrus fruits so I avoided them all like a plaque, basically through out the first trimester I was living on fruits.

Fast forward to second trimester my taste bud was back, I was able to consume some citrus fruits in small quantity though, my energy was back too I began to act like I'm not pregnant, I'll wake up to eat in the middle of the night, all of a sudden I started hiding foods my husband will just be wondering when this stinginess started, I have cried severally all cos he forgot to buy a particular food I craved for, I have never fought in my entire life but I find myself fighting in the market all cos of a particular food I was craving for, If I'm eating groundnut and it falls inside a hole I must remove it oh, to the point my husband nephews were laughing me.
All in all my second trimester was sweet except those normal pregnancy symptoms which I do come here to complain and mama Liftedhands and her team will tell me to romance my package and waddle dey go.

It doesn't really follow that way o
Women's body differs. I breast fed my dd for 2 years without having periods, once I weaned her period came and I took in immediately. But I still don't consider it as family planning cos kpregede! anything can happen as you can ovulate before period sets in...so its better to be fully covered.

Infact, am gonna get a comprehensive insurance cover cheesy cheesy cheesy

Thanks for the enlightenment ma. God bless you.

I was having cramps which make me to anticipate my period for the month but my sleeping on duty on daily basis and craving for early breakfast which I'm not known for prompted me to consult google and my finding made me to run pt and it turn out positive. So relax ma and count yourself lucky if you don't have ms.

Part 2 BS

At third trimester I had the shock of my life, the goods my husband has been expecting since April hasn't been delivered so he travelled to Ogun state where the coy is located and discovered he has been duped to the tune of 6m he came back and was hiding it from me but I suspected something was wrong but he kept saying nothing till his little savings finished and we couldn't feed some days except his mum will bring things from the village, I ended up not doing scan cos there was no money, some days I'll go to ANC with just t-fair, I was tempted to beg online but shame no gree me, I stayed till 35th week I didn't buy a pin for my baby but God saw through my situation and the pregnancy was smooth all through no complications, no day was I rushed to the hospital cos of one issue or the other, no sickness whatever not even malaria, for that I return all the glory to God. At week 36 I was already tired and wished to offload, I started taking dates fruits followed by searching for all the signs of labour, I'll be observing my pant each time I pee for show, I climbed stairs the days I remember, I promised to start trekking when I clocked WK 38 at least every Sunday cos my church is like 15 to 20min trekking, so on the 14th of Oct I decided I'm going to trek to church but rain said otherwise so I step out to enter bike but none was in sight in fact the two sides of the road was crowded with people looking for bike so i jeje waddle my thing dey go, close of church hubby said I should wait let's see pastor for prayers after all the waiting pastor came and apologize that we should come back the next day then hubby started blaming me that I didn't go in on time to tell him we were waiting since he was busy with his unit meeting, we started arguing and I got more upset and told him I'm not going with him, he begged that we should pay bike and go but I was just looking for a way to punish him for blaming me so I told we must trek home, he just knew I was out for trouble and avoided any by trekking with me that was how I ended up trekking to and fro church and alas it was a blessing in disguise.

On the 15th I woke up feeling strange but so energetic than have ever felt, baby kicking was intense as if something is happening inside the womb I told my Mum-inlaw and my hubby that I'm feeling somehow but they didn't take me serious, I couldn't stay one place I checked hospital bag again to confirm, it was remaining toothbrush and towel I locate them and went to pee and I saw something like milky discharge I didn't tell them cos I was waiting for the bloody one, then after like an hour I started feeling sharp pain I then told my mother in law that I should go to the hospital and compain she said she's coming with me I told her I'm strong enough to go alone but the poor woman insist oh,so we step out and this was around 2pm inside scorching sun you need to see the steps I was taking cos of the pains.

On getting to the hospital nurses and their negligence started, you know govt hospital nah, cos there was no money I had to resort to using them, the ones I met in the labour ward were not taking me serious some even said where is the tummy that's due for labour, while the others were packing their bags telling me I should wait for afternoon shift people that their time is up, I stood there and they left one by one telling me I don't look like whose in labour, tears rolled down my cheek and my mother in law started praying oh in the middle of the road...lol, one woman gave me direction to one private clinic cos the cramps was getting intense I raced down there the woman was so nice she didn't even asked of my hospital bag I just explained my condition and what the nurses in the govt hospital did, she wore her cloves and prayed and asked of my medical history which I supplied, she then told me to climb for examination, she did the do oh and I shouted she told me it labour but the cervix isn't effaced but brought out the remaining mucus plug to show me, she said I can go and come back when I feel pains at the interval of 5min I then asked how long labour will start after show she said it varies that it can come two days or even after a week in some people but it a sign labour will soon start, that was how I raced back home feeling a bit relief but after few hours of getting home I started feeling pains again around 7pm I went to pee and wipe to see blood I was scared I called the woman she said if I'm not sure of any transport system if it gets late that I should start coming to avoid stories, my husband that likes sleep like no tomorrow started complaining that I should relax but when the contractions hit me and I pinch him he knew it was not a child's play...to be continued, breastfeeding things

BS

EDD 06/10/18
First off I'd like to return all glory to God for this pregnancy. Other than bitter taste bud around week 5 that lasted for about a week or 2, I can say it was a ride in the park. Grateful to you God.

I really wanted to put to bed on October 1st cos of the special date thingy but nothing happened. I also didn't want to exceed my edd cos I could become fearful and all, so I kept praying to God to send labour my way and bring my baby out.
Edd came and I felt nothing, went for antenatal as usual no complain other than I was tired of being pregnant so my gyna asked me to take castor oil later on at night.
I purposely took the pedestrian bridge on my way home to stress my self a bit. On getting home, ate and went on to do stairs exercise, I counted 400 steps back and forth on the stairs, all in the bid to induce labour naturally as I was scared to take castor oil, going by the good,bad and ugly reviews all over the Internet. But I stil felt nothing and was becoming frustrated. Later on around 8:30pm took a 30 mins walk to get fresh pineapple juice and mango juice. When i got back home, I took the mango juice and went straight to bed.

On 07/10/18 Woke up to poo around 12am and then went on to have menstrual like cramps from 3am which lasted about a minute or 2(it didn't destruct my sleep, I only change sides when the contraction came). By morning, the contractions was not regular so I didn't bother to time it. Got my older daughter dressed for church, cooked breakfast and went on to have my bathe. As I was bathing a thick blood fell off(sorry tmi). I checked well and could only see thick blood. So I finished up, dressed for church, repacked my hospital box and had breakfast. I had intentions of going to church and then head to the hospital afterwards depending on how I was feeling.

After the bloody show I expected contraction to be frequent and timely. But i only felt it once more and nothing again. So I googled what seeing blood could mean at that stage and the stuff that came up were placenta previa and some other scary stuff so this made me jittery and I immediately left for the hospital with my hubby and older daughter.

Got to the hospital around 9:30am. The doctor on duty listened to baby's heartbeat said it was fine. He also checked my cervix and told me I was 4cm gone. But was worried I said I saw blood and I didn't do late scan( 3rd trimester scan). So he asked me to do an urgent scan. Unfortunately their sonographer was not around so hubby, I and my older daughter drove to clinix, they said they open 12pm on Sundays and this was 11am, by now contractions was back and hitting me hard in the car, will cry a little and my older daughter will pet me. We ended up returning to ikeja to use a scan centre closer to the hospital just incase. By the time we got there around 11:30am, we were no 6 on the queue, contraction was now frequent and I was just excusing my self to cry and cringe in one corner. Fast forward to when they started attending to patients at 12:30pm, my hubby quickly showed them the referral letter from the hospital that it was urgent so I was attended to first. The sonographer said every was fine, that placenta wasn't covering the cervix and that my water was about to pop that we should quickly head back to the hospital.

We got back to the hospital around past 1pm and was taken to labour ward after the doctor went through my scan report. By now the contractions were now 5 mins apart and very painful. I was checked and told I was 6cm gone. Honestly at this point all I good mutter was Jesus help me and I would cry in between cos the pain was out of this world. Few mins later I had this urge to poo, the midwife didn't expect that I would progress so fast, so she said I shouldn't push or poo that it was my baby descending. So I was checked and my membrane was ruptured. By now the contractions/pain was unbearable and all I was feeling was intense pressure to poo, but was asked to still hold on and allow baby descend fully, So I I held on a lil but when I couldn't again I screamed that I wanted to poo and had no control anymore, when they checked again they saw the baby's head and just asked me to push with every contraction I felt. I just shut my eyes and screamed Jesus help me push, felt the vj tearing but pushed right through it. Baby came out with loud cries exactly 2pm weighing 3.5kg.

Had second degree tear and lost lots of blood but I am grateful. I prayed for short labour and Jesus did it. Thankful all the way.

Best wishes to waddling mamas, may it end in praise for everyone.

BS part 3

We entered the road around 10pm after calling all the taxi number my husband has in his phone and all promised to be there in 5min but we didn't see and I was in pains we started waving any car that just pass and one decided to help us with extra charge, as soon as we got to the clinic the pains was unbearable the woman asked to examine me I decline cos the pain was too much I preferred to wait till around 8cm to be examine in my mind oh, that was how I was in pain till day break cos I was waiting for 2min contraction my mother in-law hear am cos I was always bouncing on her my hubby ran away cos he couldn't watch me in pains, fast forward 6am 16th the woman came and practically forced me to examine me and I was just 2cm dilated she was so happy and congratulate me that I'm lucky cos some people do feel cramps still cervix not dilated me I was angry asf that all those pains through out the night I'm just 2cm, I asked to go let me go shout my thing a home she said no that I need to be monitored my dear mamas that was how I stayed there with contraction till 3pm and I was just 4cm dilated I asked to be induced and it was done then the real show began, I was asked not to sit it either I stand walk about or lie down to avoid pressing the baby's head I observed all and discovered standing was my best option, if I lie down the pain will last like 7min but with standing just 2min so I ended up standing from 3pm till 15min to 6pm that I felt the urge to poo and at dot 6pm I heard the cry of my baby, let not forget to say while standing I was urinating constantly on my pant with path inside cos I couldn't walk to the loo, and pushing ministry wasn't funny at all cos I had supernatural strength a moment I heard push and my baby came out at 38weeks 5days weighing 3kg through vaginal birth without tear, may his name alone be highly praised, i pray for the remaining Oct mums your labour shall be smooth and free of complications and for the TTC mum soon God will surprise y'all

I thank all the mamas that contributed here cos it really helped a ftm like me, please y'all should manage my typo and sorry for long story, manage my wack story like that cos motherhood isn't an easy job since Tuesday night I don't think have slept up to 24hrs sef.
