IKR but it went well with it too o

Caaz:
Sweetie, can you point me to how to prep this Amala for my mister?
Where i go see ham buy?

I babe in the southern part of the corntree.

Okay sis. It’s made from blended yam flour.
You should be able to get the yam flour from people that sell raw food stuff in the market. Another option is to buy from the supermarket.

Preparation is quite easy
Put water in a pot and heat up till it’s boiled. Then take a little out of it and set aside.

Now, get your turning stick and gently add the yam flour in the boiling water gradually while turning it so it doesn’t get lumpy.

When you’re good with the consistency, add a little from the hot water you set aside initially and cover to cook for about 2 to 3 minutes.

Turn it again for a minute and bring down from fire. Then make it smooth with your turning stick a portion into your plate.

Hope say you understand sha

Rice, vegetable soup, egg and fish

Hello mamas

My baby is here. She arrived yesterday, we’re still in recovery because it was through emergency CS.
Thank God for his mercies

I’ll be back for the full birth story.

kokaiye:
eeya.. Sorry dear.. Loratidine is safe during pregnancy ooo... Do get well.

Okay mama
Thanks a lot

Hamzashaf99:
Loratidine is safe in pregnancy. Why not make tea with ginger, cloves and honey? Very effective and safe. I also add a bit of garlic and black pepper to mine. Then I take it all day long instead of ordinary water. Two to three days and it's gone.

Thanks a lot. I will try this remedy

Hi mamas
So, I’m down with headache, cold, itching throat and catarrh. I went to the pharmacy yesterday and the pharmacist said I could take loratidine but I’m not so sure if it’s safe so I didn’t get it.

Now, I’m wishing I had bought it because this hot water/balm therapy I’m doing is not fast enough for me. I feel hot and cold at the same time.

Please who has felt this way before and what did you take. My next ANC is not until 16th of this month.


PS I’m 30 weeks gone

iamoyindamola:

I really do not know how to describe it but some call it oju yo bo. Very soft and white on the inside and every tasty too.

Lunch

Hello mamas, trust we’re all doing fine and our LO. So I joined an online antenatal platform and thought you share with my fellow mamas. It’s called birthsafe. It’s a paid platform though but I’ve learnt a whole lot from it.

A lot of things that are not taught in the hospital about pregnancy journey and birthing.

You can check the page on Instagram. Birthsafe

Plantain and eggs for my odogwu

Hamzashaf99:
It's normal. This is my second pregnancy with it.

It's the slow movement of food in the intestines that makes it that bad. So I try to avoid foods that make it worse, drinking lots of water and eating veggies. At the end of the day, I just take one tablet of paracetamol to help with the pains till I sleep off, since the pains usually start around midday for me and worsen as the day goes on.

Exactly how I feel. The doctor gave me omeprazol and something for the constant vomiting. Now it’s headache. I took paracetamol this morning but Omo! It’s like ko work o.

I’m still feeling seriously. I cried sef at a point. This first trimester should just do and go jare

Hamzashaf99:
Welcome. It's nice to see people popping up.

Second trimester is just around the corner.

My main problem even now is stomach ache and gas pains.

Sorry mama. So the stomach ache and gas pain is normal right? Because I’m experiencing it presently. Infact, I’m at the hospital right now to complain to a doctor. It’s too uncomfortable

kokaiye:

My fellow team mates, show your face biko

Dolphinlove:
Good afternoon mamas
I'm not feeling myself lately
Whenever I eat, I'll feel as if the food is stucked in my throat. I took my prenatal drug last night, I'm feeling it hanging on my throat
I vomited it this morning, what can I do mamas is it part of pregnancy package

Eeyah sorry. It is part of the package o. You will be fine. I felt that way during the first trimester of my last pregnancy but it left with time. I just stopped feeling it

This time it’s a minty like/heart burn feeling I dey feel. It is well with us

Towerofgrace:
You are welcome mama, let me bring Zaynie's golden chair for you, this one that you are tired na golden mat you deserve make you rest well. In our local parlance, belle no get customer, every pregnancy is different just hug and manage the package this one has come with, good thing is most symptoms will ease out by 2nd tri, so just count down until 2nd tri aka honeymoon phase.

I was also here about same time as you, over 2years ago and my package then all though not bad, but was there. This time around my symptoms are very subtle and easing up already, which has been making me nervous. Did you feel any symptom at all in the previous pregnancy ? cos this one is doing me like, i didn't know i was pregnant case . if not for the PT strip I don't think I would have known.

Pele mama, just try and eat in bits or anything healthy and pregnancy friendly you can tolerate, rest as much as you can, take your prenatal vitamins, drink lots of water in whatever version you can tolerate, you are doing a great work, it is not easy to grow a human being , pele warm hugs to you.

Thanks a lot mama. Thank you for the golden chair too

I didn’t even know I was pregnant during my first u til about 2 months plus. I was busy taking malaria and typhoid drugs then. The pregnancy didn’t stress me at all. Infact I was active and working until I put to bed


But this one ehn….. I don’t understand myself. I just want to lie down all day and do nothing. To drink water sef na wahala. I can’t wait for this phase to pass seriously.

Hello mamas. I’m here again …..the last time I was here was about 2 years and 8 months ago.

I’m few weeks gone now but this feels entirely different. I’m weak, nauseous and tired every time, I have no appetite and a kind of uncomfortable heart/stomach burn (that I can’t even explain).

I was very energetic and active during my first. I just want to lie down all day.
