Please do you have their contact phone number so I can call for more details and is there any consultant you can recommend in the hospital. My wife has fibroid and I want to know if there's any of their specialists that manage it. Thanks

4realwoman:
good to know that you are good ma'am and don't worry it will soon end in praise for us all.
As for me I am good and counting down already oo as toilet is now my new best friend and from what my app says that means that baby is almost ready to come. I keep having this headache that refuses to go and my bp is normal as at the last time I checked it.
Wishing us all safe delivery at the appointed time, Amen
Do have a wonderful Sunday.

Team May, hope we all are ready and prepared to meet our Los because we have few days to enter our great month June.
June for sexy and sharp delivery.

Team April remaining mama's, the Lord will make it easy for you all in Jesus name, Amen.

Seize her ATM and change the sim she uses in receiving alerts so she doesn't send money to people anymore. The only person she is supposed to be assisting is her mom. Whenever her mom needs money, she should tell u and u make the transfer ursef. U can also brief her mom on what's happening. She might hate u now but as long as whenever she is done with u and u give her her complete money, she will know u meant so well for her.

Keeping the reat may not augur well with her.
She might think u won't give her her money later. And money is somehow, she might want to leave anytime and u may not have such amount with u. I know of someone whom it happened to and the whole world blamed her for allowing someone else keep her money.
U could however, seize her ATM and change her sim card or change her Mobile app pin so she can only receive alerts but not do anything with the money therein. As the other mama suggested, u could also give her a token from her salary for recharge cards and other girlie expenses.

MY BIRTH STORY.

To the glory of God Almighty alone do I share this story.

Thank God for the successful journey of 9 months and a supernatural child birth.
I conceived my baby due to God's mercy. My LMP
was on the 10th of August, 2019. I had been trying to conceive for some time to no avail. I underwent an eye surgery in September,
2019. I had no idea that I had conceived before that surgery. I was expecting AF and even wore sanitary towel to the theatre. Unknown to me that God had heard my cry for forgiveness. I was filled with so much joy and gratitude when I later realized that I was pregnant. My heart and prayers goes out to all GTC mothers all over the world. Despite, the fact that I have older children, It is heartbreaking to keep seeing your monthly flow when you are longing to conceive a baby. I pray that God will answer their prayers this month in Jesus' name. Amen.

I went to register in a new hospital on Wednesday, 6th May, 2020 because the hospital that I had been using was sealed up due to a reported case of covid19. I was already 39 weeks gone and I was done and ready to meet my baby. I had a scan that day and as expected was given a very far EDD- 24th May as against 11th &13th of May. The sonographer had told me that my cervix was very closed to my dismay. I had resolved to eat a lot of pineapples or drink castor oil if I didn't fall into labour naturally. I was induced for my earlier pregnancy of my 3rd child, so I did not want to be induced this time around.

However, God had something in stock for me. It all started on Thursday, 7th May, 2020. I hosted a zoom meeting @ 9:00am. After the meeting, I was juggling a lot on my hands and executing managerial functions while reporting to my boss. I had scheduled to host another meeting @ 1:50pm that same day, unknown to me that the meeting was not going to hold.

At 11:30 am, (due to the pandemic, I work from home) I decided to catch some sleep before the next meeting. My husband who was also at home with me and our kids, also joined me in our bedroom while our older kids were going about their home work.

With my DH beside me, I thought of using that avenue to make love to him in order to kick start something. I allowed him to stimulate my ripples which was a no go area throughout my pregnancy because they were quite sensitive. While we were at it, I felt some contractions. I tried to ignore them as I was savouring the moment. This continued until I could no longer bear them. I excused myself and went to the rest room where I had a seemingly unending urination and defecation. I kept checking with clean hands to see if I had lost my plug or something unusual was happening. I saw nothing strange. I just assumed that the contractions that I was having were braxton hicks because they were not regular nor consistent.

After about 10 mins later, we could no longer continue with our game and we suspected that I was experiencing early labour. So I tried to eat something light and get some rest when I did not feel any contraction. When contractions came, they began to intensify and I kept changing labour positions like kneeling on my fours, squatting, standing with my legs apart, swaying my hips from side to side, etc.

At 12:38pm, my boss called me yet again to discuss official matters after we had just chatted on Whatsapp. There and then, I told her that I was in early labour. She screamed and asked me to suspend all work immediately and prayed for me. I had yet another contraction during that call. I asked her to please postpone my zoom meeting till further notice.

With work settled, I told my husband the contents of my hospital bags and we planned to head for the hospital immediately. Then, a very strong contraction came and I felt like going to toilet, my husband was right behind me and said we must leave the house after I had recovered from that contraction. Then, yet another strong contraction joined in quick succession, leaving me with little time to recover. Booah! My water broke right before my husband's eyes and he became worried, saying "Honey, your water has broken" then, I realised that I was almost at my peak. Things were happening so fast. With another contraction, I bore down asking my husband to pour water on me since we were in the bathroom. He did, but I needed more water, so I laid in the water and as he was trying to get me to stand up, he shouted" Honey see your baby's head!" My goodness! unbelievable! My baby's head? I felt a very strong urge to push and I started to push. My husband and I were all alone there. To say that he was perplexed is an understatement. He was wondering who he could call for help. Meanwhile, I was already pushing. He summoned courage to take the delivery of our baby. Mind you, he is not a doctor nor a medical worker, neither am I. He kept encouraging me to push and I held on to his arm and pushed with the help of God. To God's glory, our son was born at about 1:16pm before my scheduled meeting!

I had earlier bought a pair of scissors for another purpose and I directed my husband to bring it and like a flash back, I remembered that I had read how to cut an umbilical cord somewhere stating that the cord should not be cut immediately but after the child had inhaled some oxygen which would make the cord turn light blue from white before it could be cut. God's leading and guidance was with us. We successfully cut the cord and called for help while we were at it. My husband could not clamp the cord initially because of panicking. So we joined hands together and God helped us. He sent nurses to our rescue. Who helped me to deliver the placenta and the afterbirth.

All this while, my older children sensed what was happening and began to pray for me in the living room. When they told that I had put to birth, they turned the prayer session into praise and worship session, praising God for answered prayers. I have never seen my kids so grateful and elated as they were.

God made me to deliver like the Hebrew women before the nurses could arrive. We have gone for routine checks and the doctors have certified us OK!

This could only have been God!!!
We are in awe.


To all expectant mothers, quick and easy labour to you all. Healthy mothers and babies, rejoicing family in Jesus' name. Amen.

To the awaiting mothers, your waiting is over from this month in Jesus' name. Amen.

Thanks everyone for your congratulatory messages. God bless you all.

Neile:
I have 2 fibroids which caused me some pain and discomfort as they grew with the baby. I checked into the emergency twice when the pain was unbearable and was giving stronger pain relief injections. Outside that, i was prescribed Diclofenac which I probably took 3 or 4 times. I am 35 weeks now. My doctor has said because of the fibroids, I will need to have CS which has been scheduled to happen in a few weeks. So your wife should be fine.

Good afternoon everyone, please can anyone recommend a good hospital for antenatal and delivery in Ikeja and its environs. My wife is just seven weeks and we currently see a specialist in Ikeja in his clinic which closes 4pm daily but we want a Government hospital as options. Th specialist recommended mother and child hospital omole but my family says Government hospitals are better . My wife has fibroid too but they said it's not going to be an issue.please you can also recommend a private hospital. Thank you

sugah:
Try St Ives off Opebi or Deseret int hospital GRA

hunniesuzie:

whyworryPH:
Yes dear. Vegetable sellers or those that sell African Salad (Abacha) items also have them. I'll add the B.co to help me with appetite. Ate my first meal for the day around 1pm. Not funny at all.

whyworryPH:
But I do check my BP at home every 2 to 3 days.

For now, please do as they said and they will review it after 2 weeks cos BP in pregnancy is just not good.

Thanks to everyone. This is my own portion of God's heritage.

Lyoncrescent:
Thank you. I find it interesting you said I shouldn't go to mother and child.

juola:
My EDD was supposed to be in June but I had miscarriage in December. I couldn't come here since then. I just had the courage this week to come back here and I can see those we started together already preparing for favor room experience. May God make it easy for you all. Kindly join me in prayer that I should be able to carry my los to term too and make my LO twin to compensate my loss.

Bomgirl:
In Abuja, your first ANC has to be in company of your hubby. There are some tests they have to run too. God bless and keep you both and the pregnancy. Amen.
