Because you have praised Him and never forgotten how He led u thru that period into your light, you will go to the delivery room and not the labour room!
Before you feel pain, may He bring forth your bundle like He did the Hebrewwomen.

@reliableGod. Awwwww....if ur bump isn't showing den its okay to curl up jare. You don't need much stress so early in the pregnancy. Besides, its better to stay for house sometimes. Me I find excuse for dh tire...till I had to tell him that I didn't want too many 'friends' to see me in the early stages of my pregnancy cos I don't know who doesn't like me.
Even his closest friend place no bin dey hungry me to go. Cos other people may be there and....well person no fit know another person finish!(Yup! I was a bit paranoid in my first tri!)

But since I didn't experience morning sickness, I couldn't plead ill health. So na so so code I dey code my belle with big clothes!

Now that my bump is out there, we keep getting 'where all dis plenty belle come from sef'cos people didn't see me much. lol!

Don't worry, am sure you will regain ur energy soon. You can try talking to dh bout it tho...if he understands, he'll also want u to stay back and will be the one making the excuses for you.

@believer...Aunty Oyoyo!!! Its so good to hear from u. I can imagine how heavy u must feel now.

@ipio...my sister...my dearest sister. I have missed you sorely too. I am still praying for you and I know that you will son share ur testimony.IJN....Amen!

Congrats shalex...may the good Lord perfect what He has done in your life in Jesus' name. Amen!

@reliableGod. It happens, but what you need to first ask urself is 'why?'
Why do u feel the need to stay home? Are u perhaps afraid of being seen by the wrong people?
Is it that u are shy of the changes taking place in ur body?
Are u usually ill and do not wish to be a nuisance?
Do u feel that u will not find people in similar situations in these gatherings?
I used to not want to visit people cos I didn't want people to see my bump. Cos even wit belle some people still dey ask 'how many children do u have now?'
Someone told my colleague 'belle no fit u o! See how u no get swag again'. After e say na play..whic kin expensive joke be dat?Na to reject that one immediately!
Or are u plain tired and just wish to curl up on a couch all day.

You have to identify the real reason u don't wanna go out with Dh and see if it can be addressed. Talk to DH about ur fears if that's what it is. He is in the with u and deserves to know what ur reservations are.
But pls don't let d bumb affect ur relationship with hubby so that he doesn't entertain any resentment especially after LO arrives.
Try to work up some energy to go out with him sometimes so that when u can't, he'll understand.
There are husbands that won't want to be seen in public with their pregnant wives....atleast he isn't that type. smiley

@Goldenbaby. I used Preseed. Just a little to moisten the entrance. I didn't see ewcm the month I conceived.
I used to see same kind of CM and it wasn't stretchy. I also had ovulation pains even in a month that I was sure I didn't ovulate(I was scanning my follicles that month so I knew the eggs didn't get mature). So that may not be a good enuf indicator for everyone.
I don't recall having headaches during ovulation...maybe some months only... but everyone is different tho.

Hello everyone.
I wanna apologize for my long absence.
I didn't want to keep coming and saying 'I had this problem or that problem' all the time.

But that's what this thread is meant for so I promise not to stay away for too long again.

Thanks HW for everything. Its gonna be alright with all of us..I know that in my heart.

I welcome all the newbies and pray that more waiting mums will have cause to cross over to the Pregnancy threads IJN...amen!

I am a lot better now. The cerclage is holding up, the baby has started kicking...I love the feeling,atleast I do until I start feeling the kicks on my cervix.
Then I start looking for a horizontal surface to lie down with my leg up with immediate alacrity, so as to move the baby away from the cervix./cerclage..I can't chout!

How is everyone? I really can't wait till am 30 sumtin weeks..looking forward to that actually.

My bump is super obvious now.Dh says I now walk with a swaddle. They say my belly is bigger than it should be and keep ascribing that to 'their' fibroid(lol). Na dem sabi! I love how big I look...makes me feel like time is flying faster.

The baby is an active one. During the anormally scan, the baby was jumping and flipping all over the screen. The dr kept trying to measure and at a point na any body part wey present itself e go rush measure. After them sweat tire, dem allow me to come down from the table say 'this baby is too active'
Na later I remember say I sip small of Dh's La casera on my way there...note to self..stay away from LaCasera going forward (lmao)

Meanwhile how is everyone doing?

I have been attending Antenatal classes. I joined two (private and hmo) and am beginning to regret small small cos of conflicting recommendations undecided

@pinkdaisy. Thanks for the prayers. May God surpass all your hearts desires!
@reliableGod. Hang in there hon! You are almost outta the morning sickness trimester.
@zenoj. You are so right! Its always when we let go that we actually let God.
@tanidabi. It all depends..if you wanna do it in a lab, you can try Dr. Kuti of Prisms. Or any clinic with a gynae can do it.
@bebedlolo. I pray that the Lord will answer your prayers this cycle IJN....Amen!
@goldenbaby. Its very easy to get anxious...I started registering in ttc forums within 3 months of marriage so I know how you feel. It will happen okay. But I would like you to register in a clinic with a good gynae who will listen and not ask you to wait for a year b4 trying. Atleast even if you don't start fertility treatments, the Dr.can monitor your ovulation for you. For me the opks hardly ever gave me a real postive and I hardly even had normal CM not to talk about EWCM. But above all, put your trust in God, He never disappoints.

NB: Seanbell is writing exams, she promises to come in as soon as she is thru.

@favouredgal
I came online today to try and catch up and your post touched me.

Things will surely get better...I believe that cos I have been there! Depression during ttc happens but it can be overcome.

Lemme tell u my story incase anything in my experience may help in some way

I know how many times I left different ttc forums cos I was tired of trying and failing...as if na my own bad pass

Even on NL, I left the ttc thread at a time cos depression was setting in and it was affecting my job and my family life.

I stopped visiting friends or talking to 'some' people. I was only comfortable around fellow ttcers cos I felt judged...but in actual fact I was judging myself. 'Why did I do long courtship, why didn't I allow myself get pregnant earlier in the relationship, why didn't I marry when I was a virgin, why did I ever take preventive drugs, why am I expecting God to forgive my sins when others who are more holy have problems that He should bother Himself with, how come people who have done so many abortions still have kids easily and I can't, am I not praying enough, does that mean that I am beyond forgiveness?etc"

At a point if dh feels too tired to bd at the right time, I'd be bitter. If he wants to bd during 2ww I'd be wondering if its me or him that the devil is using.

At work, I sank myself into my job but just when I was making progress, they they moved me to a unit that wasn't doing so well. I got mad! "So upon all my previous effort and progress this is how they thank me? How am I sure its not how hard I worked for them b4 that I couldn't get preggy? This people are still expecting me to kill myself for them to delay my baby making further?How on earth do they expect me to achieve all these deliverables!!!This people are devil sent..Etc" My appraisal that quarter was horrible and my annoyance at the 'system' increased!!!!

One day Dh told me that I had changed, that it was as if am the only one that is working hard on ttc and he is just looking at me cos I have refused to listen to anytin that isn't what I think is right. That he doesn't pray with me as often doesn't mean he doesn't pray on his own...that when I wake up to see him sleeping on the couch, its cos he went to pray for us. That I have been acting too righteous and was always criticising! That sometimes he makes love cos of babymaking and not cos he feels like it and he also gets tired when its not happening for us.

I was surprised cos I didn't know it was affecting our relationship too. I thot the home front was tight!Ofcourse I also felt a little resentful, thot I was no longer pretty that's why, started to watch my weight, invest in cool clothes, etc

BUT it was when mamatriplets/alwaystrue started the midnight prayers that I started to get myself slowly. Then I saw why I was moved to a new albeit difficult unit. My new boss was so concerned about me that she started to advise me and even allowed me to take time off for my ttc treatment. She was giving the kind of advise that Safe06 gives everyone here..and allowing me to take hours off to do cool stuff for me and hubby. Slowly I started to re-focus on my marriage and on how to bring back the spark!

I planned surprises for him (eg candle light dinner wey we stop halfway as heat wan kill person cos fan dey blow off the candles and Gen no fit carry AC)...bought him items I knew he loved even when I didn't have so much...on our anniversary, instead of feeling sorry for myself, I used my lastcard to book a room in an international hotel he'd always admired from outside (within Lagos at weekend rates), took him there for dinner then surprised him with the key to the room. Yes he called it a waste of money but the warmth that came back to our relationship after that weekend was unmistakable.

I went a bit broke with the things I did but I guess the efforts did something to him cos the ice broke and the spark came back. We started praying together and doing things together again. When they asked me to do a one month white fast, he offered to join me and even led all the midnight prayers.

My sisters I didn't get pregnant immediately but it happened within a few months of all this. Cos by the time I started bringing up fertility treatment discussions again, he was 100% in support unlike before that it was as if he was just doing it "let it not be as if...".

So if you need time off ttc, take it! But please replace it with something else AND prayers. Otherwise you may not be able to take any part of your mind off it regardless of how much you try.

Pray, pray and pray no matter what you choose to do. Two months before I got pregnant, I learnt how to say 'get thee behind me satan..the bible says that if I confess my sins and ask for forgiveness, that the Lord is faithful and just to forgive me and cleanse me of all unrighteousness...He said though my sins be as red as scarlet, He will make me as white as snow" This was because I kept remembering all the bad things I have ever done in my life and those memories had a funny way of popping into my mind when am praying so as to make me feel guilty.

Eat healthy within the period you wanna be off 'active' ttc. Watch ur weight if u think you have put on weight (perhaps someone should revive the WL thread?). Make fruit drinks regularly for both of you if you can't always eat fruits, eat little swallow with plenty vegetable soup, stay away from carbonated drinks, and keep praying.
If you are treating any condition, continue your treatment...on the other hand,if your faith is strong enuf, look forward to being miraculously healed...

Don't stay too far from this forum if possible though. Cos u may get strength from things happening here. At one time when the ttc prayers were going on, I was a silent member but I was participating actively.

Its normal to feel depressed sometimes. But remember that the darkest hour is usually before dawn so keep the night watch by praying at night and your dawn will surely come speedily. Be strong dear..its gonna happen soon, just believe it.
After all there is nothing impossible for the Lord to do...He said so Himself in Jeremiah 32:27...

@all... hi to all the newbies. I pray that your sojourn is short. For the rest of my dearest mums...I love you all so much and pray for you always. May the Lord visit this thread today so that there will be a mass outpouring of miracles and an abundance of bfp testimonies IJN...Amen!

Hello sisters.
If all my body was made of lips, I would still not be able to thank God enough for what He has done for me. The fact that am alive is reason enough to thank Him...not to talk bout all the miracles I have experienced in my life, family, marriage, etc.

Hmmmmmnnm!This pregnancy has taken me on one roller coaster ride after the other and at a point I discovered that I was loosing the faith that made God give us His gift.

Yes I was beginning to doubt that He could sustain the pregnancy till EDD...I was preoccupied with all the signals that the devil was sending our way and that's why I stayed away for so long. But I got clarity a few days ago that I must not allow fear and doubt to creep in...recall the story of what happened to Peter when he tried to walk on the sea?...that's what it was like for me. At a point I allowed doubts and fear to come in and the result was that it was one problem or the other every other week.

The latest was that my cervix was funnelling and shortening so I went in to have a cerclage placed. Am currently on bedrest for a few days. Though I planned to take it easy from now, I was still filled with worry...

But I have rebuked the spirit of fear. For behold God is my salvation, in Him will I trust and not be afraid for the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song. Indeed He is my salvation so I shall praise Him and call upon His name to declare His doings amongst men. May His name be exalted for ever and ever...amen!

@Blendy Yay!!!!Aunty Oyoyo! Iya beji Oyoyo! Nice of you to drop by Blendy!!!!!How are your precious ones? Thank God for seeing you thru!Am still Wowwed by the miracle that was your journey!.

@Hebrewwoman....already Wow! How time flies!! I can't wait to get there....cos sometimes the fear of PROM creeps in and I begin to doubt that the cerclage would hold. Please keep me in your prayers...I haven't logged on here or to my mail for a bit. Between the fear fear and plenty office work, I no see chance! No vex abeg!

@ReliableGod and Babybump. Your testimonies are so inspiring!!!!!! This kin God o!....I never see your type o!! I pray for a happy 9 months and safe delivery for you two. The Lord has done it for you and He will indeed sustain it till your EDD. Welcome to the thread and feel free to ask any questions.

It is well with us all in Jesus Name.....Amen!

@muna. I don't think its safe to take Clomid over a long period o! Metformin is fine cos it treats pco. But maybe they should monitor how your body reacts to the metformin cos its quite possible that the dose is not the right dose to treat yours.
Keep praying though, nothing is imossible for God!

Health / Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by PRETTYMOMMA: 11:09pm On Feb 11, 2013
MamaT. Pls wipe your tears! Do you remember the last you felt like this?

Do you remember that the Lord sent someone to you to make you keep trusting Him?

Do you also remember that He subsequently gave you a reason to believe that He was working on your case?

Your babies are coming! For all you know your body is already on the cycle that will lead to your babies.

Cry if you must,but when you are crying, pls turn your face to the Almighty One and ask Him to remember His maid!

You are an encourager and everyone is here rooting for you.
So be assured that it will come to pass!

Read Psalms and you will receive encouragement. Recall that David was so loved by God that the Son of God came from his lineage. But even with how much God loved and did for David, the book of Psalms has a lot of Chapters that are David's pleas for God's intervention.

That means it was not always so easy for David, loved though he was...but as a compensation, God's ultimate gift to the world came from his generation.

Your children are gonna be a chosen generation, filled with blessings and wonders so great that everyone will wonder why God loves you and yours so much!

So wipe your tears my sister! Your morning cometh and the joy it brings shall tarry not.

Even when you are down and feel like He has forgotten...even when you are faced with circumstances that you cannot get through on your own. Even if it feels like there is no way out and you are weighed down by the burden of worry......etc

Please keep trusting in Him. He has proven time and time again that He will take care of you. So be rest assured that He will do it again for you, Yes He can and will definitely come thru cos He is the same God of all the Pregnant sisters and nursing mothers. Or are you forgetting that God does not change You may not know how or when but He will grant you every desire of your heart...and soon!

I pray that the Lord will bless and keep you. May He raise His face towards you and be gracious unto you. May He lift up His countenance upon you and give you PEACE as you await under the shadow of His wings. May He strengthen you when your faith is weak. And above all, may He grant you every good desire of your heart...as in that which you have asked for and that which you have not.
In Jesus' Mighty Name we pray....Amen!!!!(((HUG)))

Health / Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by PRETTYMOMMA: 4:02pm On Feb 04, 2013
Hi all
Just stopped by to say welcome to all the newbies and congrats in advance to the new mums in the making.

This year shall not pass anyone by ijn.Amen

Am sorry if its not my place but I just wanna encourage everyone that is on a clomid cycle that if u can afford to, let your dr monitor ur ovulation for you via scans. And if possible, let him give you a trigger to ensure the egg is released when the mature eggs are sighted.

If u don't want to do this, then time the inter.course AND ask ur DH to remain inside after he releases,until the e.rect.ion deflates.

If you do not have enuf cm and ur dh does not want it too wet and slippery, then use a pea-sized amount of the preseed and insert it inside then rub a little on the surface to assist entry.

Also if u like wearing tight clothes, try and make sure nothing is pressing the walls of ur uterus incase it presses against the implantation spot (not likely to affect it but what is the sense in taking chances when passing thru this ttc this journey..Like I always say, I stopped wearing panties and till today the moment I wear it, I start having cramps undecided . So cycling short/tights are my new friends for now).

I stopped all the helter skelter that comes with my job. I imagined that I was an egg trying to implant and started walking gingerly so as not to disrupt activities. I started wearing flats and loose work clothes, belting the clothes up to avoid looking like MaryAmaka. No more running up and down the stairs at work and at home in the bid to lose some weight.

ABOVE ALL, Pray, pray and pray! Wake up at midnight or at 3am to pray. Cos at the end of the day, its God that does it! Anytym I pass my barely used carton of Soft-cups, I realise what God did for me cos the cycle I got the bfp, I tried to but ended up not using the Soft Cups.

Also make sure that you improve your diet to be more healthy in the month you are using fertility treatments. Some people say when dey didn't stress or mind their food/alcohol intake, that's when it happened for them! Me? I stressed about food intake and ran away from even the occasional Red Wine too! I was actually TRYING to watch my weight and ate fruits when I could. Although I didn't take Oranges cos I once had a missed period return after taking many Oranges.

I stopped eating my favourite Nkwobi/Isi Ewu in the months I took Clomid. I heard it doesn't affect but I didn't want all that 'Konw' (shebi that's what is called Potash) in my system cos I happened to see how its being made one day.

Most of what I did then, I got from different experiences on this thread and online. Then I got advise from some friends I made here too.
This is why I decided to come in today just incase any of this may help anyone here one way or another.

I pray for breakthroughs this year for all the ladies in this thread. This year will not pass anyone by. Miracles will come and they shall be permanent! We pray for the Lord to wipe all tears and compensate everyone.

I shout a loud CONGRATS to Blendy77!! My sister the Lord has done this great thing and it is marvelous in our sights! I wish you happy child-rearing (((HUG)))

But I just know that its gonna be okay cos I serve the living God.
I also know that anytym I wanna smile, I just recall the way the baby was moving his/her limbs during the scans I have had recently.

@HB...thanks for your prayers. Fibroid or no fibroid,I am so happy that I have crossed the first trimester. And you were right...seeing ur baby's hb and movement on the screen comes with an inexplicable joy! I am helping u to count down to getting ur precious darling.

Your pain will only last for the night but ur joy will surely come in the morning. But have you talked to a doctor so that the cause will be established...in anticipation of the bfp you will have soon by God's grace.

@ilovemi..Pink daisy is right!I think u may have to hold off sex for now o! For fear of infection. In any case I have read that some people make love BUT with a condom and only if there isn't a risk of bursting the stitches..

@HW. Thanks a lot. Actually they said its intramural and fundal measuring about 22mm/38mm or so.
They also said that its not a problem and that they are not gonna touch it even after delivery cos it might shrink back.

I just hope it doesn't grow significantly bigger during the pregnancy.
I have asked the Dr.why it wasn't picked in their scans and the scans I did outside. He said it may have been so small that it wasn't seen as a problem. That maybe the pregnancy hormones/fertility drugs made it bigger and that even now its very small.

@Alwaystrue. Thank you o! Tnx for embarassing me in a boring family gathering by making everyone look at me askance.

Hi ladies.
The year has come to an end already. For those that got pregnant in 2012, what did you do differently before you got your Big Fat Positive (bfp)?
Please share with others so that it may help someone out there....Cos this 2013 is going to be a year of fruitfulness and abundance and your story might just be what will help a waiting lady out there.
If I hadn't joined NL TTC thread...I don't know if I would have gotten my bfp by now. I am grateful to Arlington for starting that thread and even more grateful for all the ladies who helped with advices or suggestions.
As it is, my baby will have several NL online godmothers..
I'll post my story and what I did differently as soon as possible.

Happy countdown to the New Year!

Hi all,
I have decided to classify my pregnancy as high risk cos a scan I did last week confirmed the existence of Fibroid.
While I love my dr and appreciate his work, I would like to also register with a high risk specialist to make sure that all bases are covered.
Please does anyone here know any High Risk Specialist in Lagos Mainland?

I wish us all a New Year full of blessings and hapiness as we usher in 2013.

Welcome favoured girl. Am sure someone will be along to answer you shortly.

She truly appreciates your concern and promises to come as soon as she is ready...Please keep her and the rest of the sisters here in your prayers...we serve a living God so all the prayers of all the ladies here will be answered very soon, in Jesus Mighty Name we pray....Amen!

@Ipio. Udoka says to tell you thanks. By the way there must be something wrong with you NL email as it keeps bouncing back mails.On Sunday I sent you an email to your other mail but didn't get a response so am assuming you didn't see it.

I wish you a very merry xmas in advance.

Those are for treatment of high prolactin,ovulation and pcos.

They shouldn't ordinarily cause your cycle to be as light as u say. Or have you been taking d clomid for long? Cos clomid is known to make the linning of the uterus thinner and ofcourse this could reduce the quantity of AF.

Hope you are being monitored as you take it...if the linning is too thin, a dr will let u know. It can be checked through an US.

Hi sticku4life
Am not a doctor but I just want to quickly mention that taking fertility medications usually increases the size of fibriod. Did u tell the doctor that prescribed clomid for you about the US result?

@alwaystrue..thank you!
I just just strolling past the ttc thread to come here when I saw 'congrats Mamatriplets' my hand start to shake as I dey find her testimony!
Am still amazed at the goodness of the Lord!
Last minute miracles should please continue for all waiting mummies IJN o!!!!!!
Health / Re: Trying To Conceive A Child? TTC by PRETTYMOMMA: 11:56am On Dec 20, 2012
OOOOOOMMMMMMMGGGGGGG!!!!
I have tears in my eyes, goose pimples on my arm and all the hair for the back of my neck don stand!!!WHAT AM I SEEING O!

Mamatriplets....do you know why shivers are running all over my body? Its because I am overwhelmed by the power of God!

God is indeed God!!!!!!!!!...He is not a man and has given us a reason in this season to believe that He is still in the business of doing wonders!

You see? That time you declared it by faith, God was already working on ur case in the spiritual! Remember when you cried when AF caught u den? He must have looked at you and said 'How can I tell this my daughter what I have planned for her this year so that she can stop crying so sadly' and given u a message thru ur cousin!

MamaT I don't even know where to start from! I just dey speechless! God so You can shock us like this? Just when Your daughters in waiting were crying out for more last minute testimonies, You give us a one that is shaking this thread!

Please my sisters,dont give up just yet o! You see....He has a special love for all in this thread, especially since we started praying as one family!The Lord inhabits the praise of His people and He wants us to continue to praise His holy name here! This is just to let us know that we should never relent!

I will continue praying fervently for everyone here...I always used to imagine that the spirit of God will sweep over the thread and give all the ladies here testimonies that will vibrate round the whole of Nairaland. It is already happening small small o!

Whatever the doctors have said doesn't matter to God. He can change it in the blink of an eye and den it will happen sooner than you think.

Just keep praying and trusting God, then work towards it.Tell Him 'Daddy, I am praying for my miracle to come at so-and-so time. Please can You help me to do the right things that You want me to do? So that this my word of faith will come to pass by your grace within my expected time'

I am the happiest person right now! Someone said if she knew MamaT's house she for go there! Me too o!!! But since I don't, please receive this hug of love from me! (((((((BEARHUG))))))))I wish you a happy 9 months IJN...Amen!

Hi all..am so happy this morning and I don't know why.
Perhaps its because am just thankful to the almighty God for His enduring mercies in our lives.

I just want to declare that as many ttcers that stop by this thread (and believe by faith that their testimonies are near) will move over from the ttc thread to the new born babies thread next year!
What this means is that starting from today, they will be declaring bfps till early next year.

But like I always say...pray with your timeline in mind and work towards it. If you treating any fertility condition, ensure you are taking your drugs right. If you are not, then fall down on your knees day and night to pray against any unexplained infertility. If you are waiting by faith...make sure you have enough faith for the wait...if your faith is weak, strengthen it with the word and with the testimonies of others.

If you wish, decorate a room in your house for your baby. I and dh were calling one room 'the children's room' during re-decoration and God took the words right out of our mouths and made it flesh within 3 months.

Faith is the most powerful gift anyone can have in this life. I used to read a book called the secret and honestly all I could take out of it was that inspite of all the space and universe and power of your words and thoughts and speaking to the universe stuff....they were just talking about faith and the power of the tongue as stated in the Bible without ascribing it to religion.
Dem say na wetin all the rich men for obodo oyibo do wey them get money/success (as in speaking/thinking positively). I still dey confess land for vgc dey wait whether that one go work. smiley

Anyway jokes aside,please have faith cos the Lord will do it. If He did for one, He can and will do for all!

Happy holidays!
