I use Premier.
They're cool, kinda Behind, saves time but expensive.

please explain further sir. Kinda behind how?

MGeey:
I use Premier along 4lanes. It's good. I hear UUTH is good too if you have time to spare.

That's a private hospital I guess. Maybe I'll check them out. Hope they ain't too expensive o.

How about the Govt Hospital at Barracks road? Any review?

deeem:

Fast forward to my 39th week, started feeling this small small cramps. By the way, at that point, my tired was tired. Started eating pineapple, baby-danced, I even tried Zobo but nothing was making the cramps abi contraction strong...

Mothers are indeed golden.

Thanking God for a safe delivery.

Wow interesting BS. Congratulations mama. May your LO bring joy and happiness to your home. Amen

Dear Husbands and Wives:

When you're due to deliver a baby or in labour. Pls take a birthing partner with you, did you hear me?
Take a birthing partner with you.

Study the hospital exit doors and put a name to the faces of the nurses.

Secondly, tell the nurses that you don't want your baby to be taken away from the delivery room. Once they cut the umbilical cord hold your baby jen jen..... I know the pains! I know every, but hold the baby jen jen.... Never let go.

Thirdly, if you're having CS, pls take a birthing partner with you, tell the doctor you don't want the nurses to wash the baby. Tell your doctor to hand over the baby to your birthing partner.

Washing of new baby is not compulsory in UK. The midwives in UK don't wash the baby that day. Nne don't panic.

In Lagos, my friend sister gave birth to a baby boy this morning, she saw her baby and made a mental note of her baby, while the midwife went away with the baby to wash the baby, she came back with a baby girl that looked like a two weeks old baby girl.

But God we serve was awake....the nurse mistakenly came back with wrapper that is not hers.... And they found out the baby had this local tangerine(local eye liner) in her eyes which means the baby is not her baby. All her scans has shown it's a boy they were expecting.

Her husband was first to spot the eye tangerine and gave the nurse a sound slap to produce his baby. He called his elder brother who is a lawyer in Lagos to come with people.... Within 20 minutes his brother and their friends has filled the hospital. The nurse said is the matron that asked her to replace the baby with the baby in the Chief matron office. The matron is denying telling the junior nurse anything.

The matron was given a beating of her life now. They are involving police and must go to court. The doctor on duty is claiming innocent....Her baby has been returned to her. They are home now.

Dear women: As you dey push your baby, biko don't start crying and leave your baby with nurses. Endure the pains and tell them to hand over your baby that you want to bond with the baby first.

Tell them to leave your baby with you that you don't want to wash your baby. If possible conduct DNA before leaving the hospital, just to make sure you're taking your real baby home.

Things are happening oooooo....

May God have mercy on all of us.

Una well-done ooooo...

Omakraid:
If mangoes causes one to fall into labour, I should have delivered by now.hmmn.. I devour it morning and night, sometimes I don't even take dinner just the fruit . If I see one basket right now, can't tell what will happen oo.. That range of moderation no kon consign me abi na wetin I go call this one now

Expectantmom:
We dey same group. Mango is one of my favorite fruits(if not the favorite sef) and thankfully it makes me go to the toilet easily. I think mango has no side effect on pregnant women in their third trimester (this is especially correct for me Sha).

Thanks greatly for your responses. Praise God I'm not alone. Hahaha more mango here I come.

I have been eating mango fruit minimum of (4) and maximum of six (6) everyday for the past three weeks now. Consistently! Hope I'm still within the range of "moderation"

Anything to worry about?

NeroPapas:
OK Una evening.. This is KingNeropapas aka DP, that is to say Daddy Phoenix ... I wan share our BS!!!

I for don nack una the tory but I see say plenty dust been raise for here and be like say no be right time, plus I've been doing daddy duties!
My wife's pregnancy journey was very smooth and stress free.. We TTC'd for a year and God answered us July last year. We registered under a scheme the moment we realised she was preggy. I chose the scheme cos private hospitals in Port Harcourt can really be expensive.
I didn't miss any ANC session with my wife.. I have the time so I could narrate all these stories better.
Let's fast forward to week 33 which was a bit scary cos wify had a high BP which was handled with few medications. We were given 2 EDDs, 15th and 18th April... We did more than 8 scans during pregnancy, that's because my wife works at an ultra sound center at a point, I had to caution her. Most of the scan said 15th, while two said 18th.
Sunday 10th of April started as a normal cool Sunday, the day started with BD which madam initiated , I have to give in cos una know na..!
By 2pm that day, We were in the sitting room watching TV.. I laid on the sofa, while madam sat pon di floor. She then stood up to get something from the bedroom, that was when she noticed water gush! She called me and I was like so what next? She said we wait! Ngwanu, we dey wait. I been don pack bag keep since. I then call my neighbour, a mother of 4 to come help check my wife, she came and said yes.. Water e yaff break. Madam don wear comfit pad and we dey wait. Could you all believe that after two hours, with the water still running at intervals, there's no contraction whatsoever. All other signs that were supposed to follow refuse to show up. Wify was still laidat.. I come turn doctor dey ask her.. How are you feeling now? She said nothing. Ha.. Nothing ke. Oya begin walk upandan na.. She did and still nothing. Wo after about an hour, making it wakati Meta (3 hours) that water haff broken.. I told her, we're going to the hospiru . We got there about 6pm. They confirmed water haff broke but service sorry cervix yaff not open. Ha, my village people, not today pls .. Well they monitored her all through the night, Baby's heartbeat was fine and she was fine too.. They said its normal in FTMs for water to break and contractions could start 12-18 hours later.
24hrs has passed still nothing. We were then sent for scan at about 10am.. The result showed baby was 39weeks old that day with EDD being 18th April. But the woman said the baby has to come out within the next 48hrs. Ok kila mase bayi? What's next? The doctor said we wait till night that if no show, they'll induce her.
So I stepped out to stroll while wify went back to her bed. Let's than 30mins,i came back to the labor ward, my wife is already on oxygen and drip.. Ha edakun, wazall this? They said the Baby's heartbeat is fainting abi going up! Ejo, pardin?? Don't let me faint here!! My wife has never been sick or admitted in her almost 3 decades of existence.. So the whole oxygen thing traumatised her. I calmed her and told her its just oxygen and its for her and the baby.. I now asked, didn't we just do a scan and everything is fine?? Why on earth is the Baby's heartbeat going up.. to where? At this point, I was scared too but didn't show it. My wife was on drip cos she was weak at this point. My younger brother called me and I narrated everything to him.. That's when he gingered that we shouldn't wait till midnight for the inducement. I then met the doctor and spoke to him calmly. He said well, CS is the next thing that if we wait till that midnight, something could go wrong.. Ha.. Ejo sir, Eni soribu . He said if they induce her, it may not work so well will still come to the CS.
I say ese sir.. Leave inducement out of this.. Let's go straight to CS.. That's how my wife was prepared for it!
At exactly 6pm, 11th April, 2022, Our CP.. Crown Prince was brought out of the operation room .. I didn't know how to feel. He greeted me cry.. I said welcome son !
Ejo, Where's my wife?? After about Anada 15 minutes, I was called to come and assist to carry my wife out of the operation room. Stepping in, I saw my beautiful wife smile at me. I kissed her pon di forehead .... Chai, see love in the theater .
My boy weighed 3.5kg and 50cm tall. We left the clinic after 3days...with baby, mother and daddy doing Fantabulous
All Glory to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who saw us through the journey.. May His name alone be Praised... Amin
Thank you for reading our BS.. LOVE YOU ALL

May God answer every woman and every family seeking a child or children. For all preggy moms.. You Shall carry to full term and there shall be no loss... The Bible said.. None shall cast their young. We shall not cast our young in Jesus name.

Weldon Cappo. Haven't checked gender yet o. Will be checking by month end when hubby will be around. Hubby wants a girl, but my instinct/intuition is telling me it's a boy. Let's watch who wins it

NB: FTM

Peeping from a distance....
Is the coast clear now?
I've been scared to peep into this thread because of the recent happenings. Me dey fear fight o make them no chuk my big belle.

Mummytoo:
Did anyone read that news of a lady that had a baby in the toilet, like she didn't know she was pregnant.

How can a woman be pregnant and will not know, what about the increase in tummy, the kicking, cravings, etc

Did she sleep on her back or tummy

How possible is it?

I read that story o. I couldn't but wonder how on earth is that even possible?
Like she was still menstruating?
She didn't experience contraction?
How burst didn't swell?
She didn't experience frequent urination?
Vomiting nko?
Baby bump kwanu?
Her mum wasn't close to observe changes?
Her water didn't break?
Like she did her usual chores and exercises without ache?
Back pain nko?
Which one will I say, which one will I leave?
Ndi oyibo sha can be that dumb and careless. If at all it's true. Smh Pheew!

1stymom:
Thank you ma'am. I never knew it's compulsory to complete the dose even after birthing... I was happy it won't be necessary again cos the injection itself is painful...I haven't been able to do anything with that hand like this.

Really? izit really painful? I've heard that from several other mamas o. I took my first dose of TT last month but surprisingly it was on my bumbum o. Thought it was supposed to be on the hand and it wasn't really painful. Hope say na the correct injection they give me so

Good evening senior and Junior colleagues. Please help me interpret these two BP results.
