Pls mamas, my baby seem to react to foods i eat, for instance; when i take beans, vegatables(efo riro), she tends to poo for like 5-6times a day and farts like an adult(very loud but not smelly). Dis is not d case when i take rice, semo, spaghetti, yam etc.



Pls wat other nutritional food recipe can i take apart from dos listed above Thanks

i have a question oh

in yoruba culture, who is traditionally expected to come around after the birth of a child? the wife's mother or the husband's mother?

d husband's mother expect she isnt around or doesnt want to do it

shndy:
No cause for alarm sis, my baby was a super jerky lol. Not only one hand, was d two n legs too. Thankfully we were still at the hospital then, d doc saw him and said its one of d jerky mvts they Mk in d womb. It'll pass. If u are still worried see ur doc. But its actually common in newborns

thanks mama, she is just 25days old. Am not really worried but anytime mumsy is with us, she will just start panicking saying thats how convulsion starts.

Another thing is d way mumsy always cover LO up even when d weather is very hot, my baby reacts to it & has started having rashes.
#mumsy is full of all dis oldies mentality

Pls sabi mamas, am FTM with a 25days old baby. My princess often jerk one of her hand or leg suddenly when sleeping. Pls, hope all is well??

ok.

The castor oil is meant to stimulate some degree of bowel motion ("purging" ), which in turn should stimulate uterine contractions, so it's a form of induction of labour.

Contractions are pains that come and go. Last less than a minute when they come. The pains may start from the lower abdomen. But when it gets more serious it pains all over the abdomen, and finally the waist and back. They are what are called 'labour pains' in lay terms. When you have contractions, apart from the pains, you get the feeling that your tommy is becoming "hard" while it lasts. This is more obvious when the contraction is stronger.

Wishing you adequate contractions and safe delivery.

All the best.

hello dr omicron, thanks for ur earlier help and advice. Gave birth on Friday; natural birth, no tear @4.5kg. Princess is healthy, so am i

Hello mamas in d house, thanks for ur prayers all through, Princess arrived dis morning at 42wks. 4.5kg, natural birth. BS later

hadayshawlar:
@Rashme, brisk walkin helps. Dat is if u can manage it. I did a lot of dat after my EDD . I hope it helps. The "nasty" as someone said, works like magic.

Thanks sis, would have opted for 'nasty' but hubby no dey. Doing d brisk walk nw, but walking step nawa, maybe its because of d weight of LO(4.5kg).

Saw 'show' dis morning @41wks

MumZ:
Pls o, I'm not a doctor but I can tell u deer is noting u can take 2 reduce baby weight. Pls don't b deceived. If baby is2 big, d only option is a cs session. U know ur history, pls don't take chances. Hope u r using a qualified hospital o. Cos dey shld b teln u d options available 2 u now, not reducing baby weight. Pls n pls, b wise. U shall not cast ur young a second time. It is well wit u.

Amen ma, thanks.

At 41+ weeks your pregnancy is already too prolonged to be left to continue to progress.

What did your doctors say? Are you diabetic? Have you had your blood sugar checked in this pregnancy?


It's one of two choices: allow vaginal delivery and risk recurrence of what happened before or do a Caeserean...

Only the doctors managing you can authoritatively say which is best for you as managing situations like this is usually individualised.

Personally, I would have favoured an elective CS for you though, considering your past obstetric history, the big baby and that you have no live baby yet (Hope this is correct).

Nothing reduces the weight of the baby. Instead, he grows more as the days pass.

All the best.

Thanks Doc, am not diabetic and my blood sugar is normal. Doc says i can have vaginal delivery. I actually saw 'show' dis morning and i went to d clinic, i was giving some oral drugs smashed in hot water and castor oil. Was told to come back by 7pm or as soon as contraction starts. I got home about 30mins ago and have gone to d toilet thrice and i feel lighter.

Dont have much experience about what contraction entails.

Hello Doc Micron, pls am presently pregnant but 41wks counting, baby is 4.5kg and am yet to see any show or sign of contraction. Am getting worried cos my first pregnancy (4.5kg also) was 10 months and 2wks before my water broke with no sign of contraction or show but I later lost d baby 2days after delivery. Pls what can I take to reduce baby weight and start contraction Thanks

agiboma:
Try doing the "Nasty" its fun and may hasten up labor

Nasty indeed, DH is not around to help. My last nastiness was when I was 4months.

Hello mamas, dis place look so dry and boring.
@all new mamas, congratulations ooo

Pls mamas, been having real back pain and abdominal discomfort for 2wks nw, EDD was 14, and have been to d clinic 3 times but they keep telling me to come back. D discomfort is getting much, how do I hasten up d contraction. Thanks all
