AUNTYLLAI:
Please help me with advice on how to make my new born sleep at night,it's not easy,he doesn't sleep in the night at all.any advice will help

It might be colic. You can't really do anything than wait it out to stop. Sorry.

If it is not colic, then try to bathe baby with hot water, massage baby, even tho they sleep all day and night is like morning to them. Let baby suck or feed very well and see if it helps.

I used both. I nearly cursed manual. Pls electric is the best. Use electric. Infact rechargeable is the best of all but it's expensive. That's what I used. Your hands will be free cos it can fit inside your bra. I've used all all three. I have all three and I can say rechargeable,then electric. Manual is no no for me

Oh thank you so much for the response.

Godmother:


Thanks, mama. My doc actually recommended ferous went to the pharmacy to get it but the pharmacist told me it's not strong enough to treat pregnancy anemia and to go for De-deon's.

Ordinarily, I would go with my doc's opinion, but of late he's been giving me some diagnoses my spirit doesn't want to agree with.

Honestly, it is not strong enough. I had same issues. I went to a good pharmacy store and they recommended that HB12. It honestly did magic, I did not get transfusion like my second child that I was busy following doc to use ferrous. I ate snails too, ugba, squeezing ugu & rest plenty. Everything helps.

I need mamas who use breast pump to tell us which is good. Electric or manual. My boy dey suck ehhh and he dey carry me go where I no Know.

Godmother:
Mamas who took " hospital is too far" how did you do it? Did you squeeze out the juice or boil the leaves?

Then is De-deon a good blood tonic? My PCV is 32% and I need to boost it asap

Wash very well. Put in a pot, add clean water and let it boil. Once on fire, you can see it's color change..allow cool down, sieve and drink first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

De-Deon
Astyfer
Hb12.

I used Astyfer and Hb12. I don't know your medical history, let your doctor recommend but all are good. Goodluck

To write birth story no easy o. But, it is what helped people like me as a first time mom in 2018 to know what to expect and all.

Sorry October and November Cappo for the delay, we had a lot on our hands. I will also quote my birth story of 2020 . I had no idea I was pregnant in early February, until March. I never planned early this year, but God has his own plans. Started Antenatal and really had no issues with morning sickness or anything. Just blood count and it is not the first time. Worked with my doctor and took my drugs, ate what was required and you won't believe few days before I gave birth, I was still anaemic according to my doctor.

On the day of delivery which I was absolutely not expecting, yet to even pack a pin, hurriedly did by 3.am and left for the hospital, since contractions won't let me breathe. The lab got my sample and my husband who is usually my donor was already on standby Incase we need blood. Miraculously, the results came up way above everyone's imagination. I saw one mama here who had same issues and said she kept squeezing ugu juice morning and night, which was also what I added to my routine things. Plus I never fail to acknowledge the place of prayers ( if catholic, the St Rita prayer) and the Supernatural birth delivery prayer book we shared on this group too.

The nurses started with checking the baby's beat and then mine and since I was already 5cm gone when I arrived the hospital.

I was just hitting the bed and gnashing my teeth anytime contractions hit me and in hours I fully got dilated and then my screaming down the building started. I always hate the part where they ask you not to scream and rather push..lol..I barely can think at that stage.

With two screaming & pushing, my son came out and the rest is history. Honestly, no two births are the same. I always wanted my daughter's birth experience because it was easier and faster than that of the boys. We are already back home and resting well. Thank you so much to everyone sharing their experiences and keeping the group running.

Wishing you all the best of the best. Easy supernatural birth delivery upon you all. Amen

B.S B.S. B.S

To everyone expecting birth story, apologies please! It is not easy to get a hold of our phones and just type immediately. I have been typing for two days now, Some like me were asked to rest properly after having some mild dizziness. But here we go!

It is actually my second baby, I had my son in 2018 December and I decreed with my mouth to be back by 2020 and God did it. I took in February and when first trimester hit me, for the first time I understood what morning sickness means.

For most of us who did not experience it at our first child, now I understand why those who do just can't relive the moment. The sickness was terrific, I kept on throwing up at every slight chance. I registered for antenatal at three months and everything was fine with me except for low pcv, which is not new to me honestly. I did everything to boost it, but each visit, it was still low.

At 8months, my husband was asked to donate blood, thankfully we were compatible. I did blood transfusion and was still doing my regular garden egg leaf, veggies and fruits. At 9momths, the doctor still insisting on blood transfusion, but on asking on the group about what I can do to boost my pcv, someone mentioned the leaf, hospital too far...funny my mom knows about the leaf and she requested we got it from the farm...I started taking it and amazingly it worked in two weeks.. doctor sef shock...

Fast forward to November, I was not in a hurry to Meet baby, because I had not finished shopping..I was too lazy to visit the market. I went to the market on the 10th and bought what I needed, on getting home..I knew in my mind, I had overworked myself. My body was telling on me. On the 13th midnight to 14th which is EDD I was not expecting to fall into labor, but when I could not sleep, I knew something was up but could not place it. I visited the restroom five times, I was purging..unlike my first child, I saw blood and mucous, this one was quite different. I had no idea until my waist started paining me, it would do that for minutes and then let me be. I quickly did Google search and found out it was contractions and I needed to time it. It started by 12 and I kept on managing it because I did not want to visit the hospital and be told it is false labour..
Omo, that thing hit me till 3.a.m...i just wore my clothes and told hubby let's go...we got to the hospital by 3.30a.m and the doctors were busy, they had a handful of two pregnant women in intense labour...he looked at me and said you don't look like you are in labor yet...and I was like because I am not shouting abii...they told me to hold on...once contractions hit me, I just jump on hubby and he rubs my back.. surprisingly I was not crying o...unlike my first child that I started crying from the house sef...by 5a.m they attended to me, because one of the patient has delivered while the other one was not dilating well enough...I was asked to come and lay down to be checked, but I said I needed to poo, but getting to the restroom again, I tried but couldn't..the nurse was like wait let me check you first... immediately I lay down ..plus the nurses o, doctor ooo they screamed n started running around to set drip and arrange my baby things...

I was just praying for an easy and painless delivery in my mind.. because my first labour ehh, with my low threshold of pain..I cried my eyes out. They fixed drip and that wicked pain hit me but surprisingly I was only shouting doc o doc o, help me....but no tears, he was like once it hits me I should push... without telling me sef, my body acted on its own o..started pushing the baby out like one very very hot hot urine...this time around, I did not say nurse I don't know how to push o...LoL. last last with three push, baby came out screaming with her tiny voice, I was later asked to cough n placenta came out...he stiched my little tear and then cleaned me up.

Then the rest they say is history. My surprise baby came out a girl. I am so thankful to God for answered prayers of a painless delivery, probably because for the first time I prayed that supernatural delivery book that one mama here shared with me. Omo, I can't believe I now have two kids o..even my mom is shocked and happy for me...lol because she fears for me with the way I hate drugs, injections and pain and my husband thinks I am a fish, but this time around, he hailed me that I was super strong for him.

So join me and thank God for blessing my family for the second time, and I pray the Lord who did same for me, will do same for all of us. Amen.

N.b Some things I learnt are, no two pregnancy are truly the same. Yes, experience matters too, I already know what each stage of labor is and I told myself to try and hold myself even tho it won't be easy..and then nothing prayers can not do, positive proclamation is very good, no matter what...I proclaimed easy, safe and painless delivery and God heard my worries and answered me.

I have never felt so energetic after child birth, I was so full of strength and I even started eating almost immediately and doing little things, which is not advisable, mumsy warned me to sleep and take plenty rest...thank God when I fainted, a doctor was close to quickly check up on me and do the needful. So please let us rest rest rest no matter how superwoman we feel...

Lastly I am signing out of team November 2020, the year of unbelievable things in the world, the Corona Year and the Lockdown order. But I am speaking positively to be back in another two years for my supernatural twins (Winks). May God answer us all and meet us at our point of need. Amen.

MorningStar233:
Mamas pls how long is one supposed to take hot water after childbirth?

It is usually as the spirit leads for most people. Some take for a month or two. Your body will even give you the go ahead on its own that you are ready to switch back to warm water. It is like a reflex.

Ask questions around please.

I wanted to ignore but my conscience won't let me. Some private hospitals are den of bad luck, they are only out in making profits. Some public hospitals are very mean and careless.

Visit the pregnancy thread and drop the location you need and get first hand responses instead.

All the best with your decisions.

Lol
I can so relate

From water scarcity at Eyo ita hall to okpara hall. Eating well at Chitis, lol

To GS building crowd during test, to Anukanka, God rest his soul. To Akionu disturbing us at female hostel like Akintola hall every night pursuing someone or saying one thing one thing. Hahaha

Choiii

Clean Up Initiative

Nice one

Thank you for giving back jare.

Thank you for sharing

Trippleblessing:



Happy new month ma'am, I have not seen a buyer for the recyclables, I was dealing with ACI before, till they demanded for drop off points, and they are not willing to pay for land to be used as drop off. I do not take 1 naira from either the buyer or the seller, all I am doing is to kill 2 birds with a stone, make the drainages free and help the people make some money, but it seems ACI isn't ready to buy from us again, I don't understand why they want a free land for their own business.

I would appreciate if you can link me to a buyer directly.

About the Back to School replica in the East, Quivers would get there, but for now, the resources at hand can only handle a community or two.

Thank you reaching out.

Then please connect with Recycle points

@Trippleblessing I hope you have seen a buyer for your Recyclables. I am assuming you are in Lagos. We have a lot of Recyclers.
1) Recycle points
2) Wecyclers
3) African Clean Initiative ACI
4) S.W.E.E.P
5) WestmanRecycling
Etc

I am a recycler too and I am based in Enugu.
If you ever want to do a project like the back to school campaign in the East, I can collaborate with you on it. Thank you so much and welldone

Nzlove:


I was given the blood tonic last Friday, I hope it will work. I will find out next week.
Is the leaf sold in the market, or can you show me a picture or describe it let me know if I can be able to get it.
Thank you so much

It is found in farms.
Usually a kinda leaf if cooked turns red or purple. You add milk to drink first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

Nzlove:


Cappo we dey, baby is kicking very well. I just logged in today to respond, I have been depressed lately and everybody is telling me to keep praying and be believing in God.

I am still battling low PCV even after all my efforts. I chop different types of vegetables like goat even raw and cooked ones, I do Ugu juice, I take iron tablets but instead of increasing it is reducing. This is my situation now

Any mama that have a solution should please, help a sister out

My story when I was preggy last year. Mum in law had to send 'hospital too far leaf' for me. It worked at the very last minute to giving birth.

Plus try and reduce stress, sleep well, worry less, eat right and make sure your antenatal drugs are from the hospital too. Tell your doc to change your routine medicine including one blood tonic in small bottles that you break to mix with water. Don't panic, it will end right.

Nzlove:


See my fellow Enugu mama and hospital mate.
I don't know there are Enugu mamas here

Lol
We are here o
Daalu nu nne

Senorita222:
Good evening mummies
Please a friend of mine landed Enugu newly
Seriously seeking for good hospital for antenatal and birthing
Please any ideas mummies...

I had my baby at Divine blessed Assurance. Prof is really good and I had a smooth one.. both antenatal and birthing, it is not bad because of the doctors Sha. They top best in Enugu

I also currently use St Patrick's hospital opposite Niger Foundation hospital all at Presidential road. They are very good too but very expensive. In all, find one your spirit aligns. I hope it helps

@Lalasticlala

May 22nd was World Biodiversity Day and to mark it, we took to Cleaning up our environment and having a Climate Walk in Enugu State.

It was a day to never forget, Enugu youths came out in their numbers to carry out a Clean Up Exercise and a Climate strike. Our message was sent to all and sundry in clear words�

NO WASTE IS A WASTE!
SAY NO TO PLASTIC POLLUTION!
Climate Action Now!

Congratulations to you!

Please can you put me through how to get a full sponsorship too. I already have a master's degree.

To commemorate Earth day, we visited a few number of schools in Enugu State. We planted economic trees and we had climate Education.
