For all the mamas asking if it’s Riconia, I really don’t know. I can only remember that the medicine has a long neck like astymin bottle and it’s in a white carton and produced by Ranbaxy too.
The thing is that it’s nice and not too expensive.
It's definitely Riconia.

My Birth Story
Where do i start? The pregnancy was not expected. Withdrawal failed and emergency contraceptive equally failed and i found out i was pregnant. Hmm! Devastated will be an understatement but i later forged ahead, the pregnancy was so different from all i have ever felt before which made me think it was going to be a princess but alas, it was a prince.
My first 3 sons i had them on or before 38wks so you can imagine my shock when 39weeks met me and labour wasn't happening, meanwhile i had started my leave. I kept taking long walks and doing exercises but labour refused to come instead cramps knew me by name.

So on Monday the 26th, i went to the office for ippis verification, when i came back i noticed my BH had increased but i ignored it. By 11pm, i noticed it had a pattern and was regular, 1 in 10mins and was getting slightly painful so i told my hubby who started dancing while i was anxious recalling the laborious road of labour. I tried to sleep but adrenaline was high, by 1am of 27th, i knew i was in for the real deal. By 3am, it has progressed to 1 in5mins and i told my hubby it was time to head to the hospital. After the whole admission process by around 3:45am, i saw show and when i was examined, the doctor said i was in 7cm. When the pain hits, my hubby will rub my waist and i will walk around but they later strapped me to the ctg machine so i had to lie down by force which was pure torture. I bore the pains well by the mouth breathing technique. Everyone kept encouraging me and by 6:45am, i was fully dilated then devil came to put hand.

The matron in charge brought a student midwife that she will take my delivery cos there were many emergencies that morning. The student knew next to nothing. She couldnt even pass catheter into me to drain urine, kept poking me and injuring me in the process. She kept fighting with the ctg machine and will always want to check me while i'm undergoing contraction. I was in 10cm for 1hr 30mins, contractions were coming but not strong enough to give me that pushing urge. At this stage i knew i was in real trouble, i kept telling the student that she needed to augment with oxytocin that has been the practice with my other kids. My contractions usually wane at pushing stage. She kept talking rubbish, when i couldnt take it again started shouting for the doctor and matron to come that i dont want that lady near me. I needed someone that can take decision. The doctor came and examined me and said theres no way d baby can come out cos the head is now transverse so hes no longer coming out with “ogor" so they should give me oxytocin to facilitate things that i have suffered enough. I started crying cos i have been telling the student for over an hour, if only she met her superiors i would have long delivered.

Well, just like a dream the nurse that took my delivery for my 3rd resumed duty and our eyes met, i knew my sufferings were close to an end. She came greeted me, prayed with me and set the correct drops because the student had put the oxytocin but with the wrong drop so i was still not having strong contractions. Immediately, the angel nurse took over my care, the pushing contractions came in its might. With one long victorious killer push from me, my prince came out screaming his lungs out. He gave me a tear but i was now pain free. He weighed 3.25kg. I was overwhelmed with emotions and kept crying, God came through for me using the angel nurse. The tear was repaired after an hour imagine! The doctor just forgot about me. In another hour the team for post partum iucd came and inserted iucd for me. I asked for it during antenatal cos this is where i draw the curtains after 7yrs of meritorious service in child birth.

NB: pls waddling mothers pls pray for those that will take your delivery. Very very important! I wish all March mamas the very best and porters from february and April. I equally want to thank all mamas here for the support, the likes, the well wishes and calls. May the Almighty locate you at the point of your needs. Amen!

Recovery has been great, we were discharged yesterday. The END

Don't push the wrong button dear.
You call my point a no brainer like you have Brains at all. Whats your definition of Heroism? Q You took a Part of what i said to create your brilliance.
I dont diss them. I love them. But the op made them look like superheroes hence my comment.
Stop believing you're wise with foolishness.
So a no brainer is now an insult that you had to result to insults.
My dear we are not competing for brillance or who's smarter. You can have the stage.

I would know because I'm separated from my wife and I tell ya, stupid little things like this can lead into something big and terrible. And naturally men can't take any form of bravado in their very own home.


So no mind all those big mouths
Oga, so a woman should not have any right or dignity again because she's married to you. Oya clap for yourself na that you allowed stupid little things to turn into something big that destroyed your marriage or was it solely your wife responsibility to stem the little things.
Better lower your ego and make peace with your wife.

Imagine you telling lilyfaith that with her mentality, you will be surprised she doesn't have a broken home. Are you free yourself? Or is it only the wives that have broken homes.

forgive my ignorance.. Induction doesn't necessarily mean CS right? You can be induced and still have VD? What's the possibility or percentage of VD over CS in induction. How painful is induction compared to spontaneous labour?

cc completey and other experienced mamas
No, induction isn't CS. Induction means the doctors are starting labour themselves with drugs and other techniques, labour isn't spontaneous anymore. VD from induction will depend on the mother's cervix readiness, the baby and other variables which the doctor will asess before starting induction.

Induction is more painful than spontaneous but usually faster (personal experience)

Induction is more successful for 2nd time mums than FTMs.

Induction requires more monitoring of mother and baby.

If induction fails, CS straight cos once induction has been commenced, baby must come out by hook or by crook.

Op pls toughen up. Stop the cry cry because it always disrupts communication and you wont be able to pass your point adequately. Atimes, sms is a way to go so there's nothing bad in sending your hubby sms or mail to share how you feel.

As for his rejecting food, ignore him, he will come around.

You dumped the one who could have died for you and followed Shit. Now you suddenly want to claim heroism for not aborting or commiting suicide despite the insults. Were you expecting a clapp offeriing before?
As much as i respect all women(single mums inclusive)....
Stop believing you're a hero. You made a mistake. Get back up and Soar not Roar.
Thank you.
Some became single mothers by rape, fact!
Many became single mothers in their teens as a result of rebellion, deceit etc
Some made bad choices which backfired.
So this reason of yours that they dumped who could have died for them and followed pooh is a no brainer. Who knows tomorrow? Many would have sworn that that they thought their man was a prince charming till shit happened.

Yes, single mums should bear their responsibility, that is life. But as much as we diss them, they performed a heroic act by not aborting the child. They may be villians in all things but for not killing an innocent child, they are HEROES.

Please, how many adults do white collar jobs compared to those that don't? Of a population of almost 200million?
How many small scale businesses are even registered? Of the registered ones, how many SMEs file taxes?
It would be interesting to know, as i don't have that data. I know all large corporations, govt establishments, some medium scale businesses pay their tax. But majority of Nigerians dont work in these large corporations, civil service. Do the others pay their tax?
It would be interesting to hear from business owners on NL. Even those working manual jobs ought to pay tax, but who keeps a record of these things? Some earn as much as 3-5K/day, and are paid cash. How is that traceable?
Just something for you to ponder on.
I'm happy you have acknowledged some exceptions all by yourself, so it isn't ALMOST ALL. Market women even pay tax in Nigeria.

Then why are you expecting miracles from the poorly funded health systems in Nigeria?
Despite the fact that the health services in Nigeria are relatively cheap, you still call their charges exorbitant.
Fear God, and even if you can't fear God fear yourself.
Those wonderful places you claim nobody's below the poverty line and things seem to be working, their govts didn't conjure up wealth from the sky.
Majority of their social welfare system is being paid by anyone who works or has a business. Indirectly, its being funded by the tax payers including the very rich and even those barely feeding provided they are working.
Tax is a way of life. However, almost everyone evades paying tax in nigeria, yet expect a social welfare program in place. A wait in futility for the poor i must say.
Even the money from the natural resources is an exclusive right of the politicians you all worship, who can do no wrong.
LIES! Please easy with the hasty generalization. Thank you

Urgent assistance needed biko

Hello mama's. Please my boy has bn running temperature since Saturday morning. Especially anytime he sleeps and wake. Not too long he was given malaria drug(Baby lonart) yet the fever persists. We do give him paracetamol but that only subsides it for a while as the fever tends to come up weneva he's asleep. I initially was thinking the fever could be as a result of the molar teeth he's developing but I jus dnt know. even as im typing by dis time his temperature is very high.
Plz mamas any suggestions or any possible drugs I could get?
Tnx
Does he have cough or catarrh or some difficulty in swallowing?
Did he complete the malaria dugs i.e twice daily for 3 days?
Why not go back to the hospital.
