Mummide:


I have a cot already mam, most times we r st the sitting room, that's why I need something I can lay my baby on. For my first child I was lying her on a sofa which I really didn't like. D swing n other stuffs at home are just to low for baby to sleep in.

okayyy, now I understand , I personally I was thinking about that too, was wondering how I will lay my los if am in the sitting room, but when we get to the bridge, we'll know how to cross it .

Mummide:


Tnx mam, yes it's d kind of bassinet I'm talking about, but not a particular type, it can b different design. Say one today at graco shop Abuja 35k / 38k

why do u want a bassinet? Or do u have a cot already? I have neva used a bassinet before but, from its look, I don't think u will use it dat long ooo.

BritneyStacy:

Am happy to hear from you. You n.a.mama twins ooo so I can imagine how heavy you must be feeling if me with one is feeling this way. Kpele.
What was your prepregnacy weight? I used to weigh 62-65kg before pregnancy but current weight at 30 weeks is 82kg. I hear some mamas say they haven't added more than 5kg since beginning of pregnancy. ..you are tempted to ask what you are not doing right.

Back all the packable and prepare ooo..even at 36 weeks, they can come ooo. God will make it easy for you and us all. Me I don't even mind baby coming at 37weeks sef. .

dunnoooo teammie, I eat normal, I guess have added 10kg if not 12kg sef, before I started my pcos treatment, was weighing 92kg, when I started taking metformin, I really reduced, when I got my bfp at my 1st antenatal was weighing 81kg.
Some days sef I don't really eat, while other days I just eat enough. Will try and pack all d packable by weekend

zaynie:



Make it light and drink in moderation.
As in once a week.
Recent findings frown against it inpregnancy and breastfeeding but no concrete evidence yet.



Its Zaynie not Zayine, if I didnt read back, I would have seen it on my mentions.

ouchhh, thanks dear, don't mind me , that's y I always quote a post cost mentioning pple monikers na work, if I have to do it, I always put a pen n paper one side. And start listing before I write and post make I no make mistake .

BritneyStacy:

Thanks. I will definitely buy a pack of flannels. But is flannel different from receivers? Please what is the difference? Can you share pics of the two of them? From the replies from Mamas here, I won't buy blanket again. Will buy just one shawl just because it is in hospital list.

yes flannels are different, they are bigger than receivers, and they come in diff designs too, and some are a little bit thicker than others, some come with hood,there is this particular one that is very good for wrapping baby, it's very big, it's 2in1, it's written Zorbit flannel on it, receivers are a bit smaller compared to flannels, and again this manufactures can confuse u ennn, some they will write both flannel and receivers on the pack.
See the ones I got, the pack of 5 is receivers, while the pack of 3 is flannels with hood, it's bigger than the receivers.

Ehennn, I forgot to add oo, zobo has been on my mind since last week, , I want to prepare it myself and drink, pls mamas, is it safe for me to take it? Am in my 3rd. Trimester.
Cc :Zayine and all mamas

Congratulations to all the mamas that have put to bed, may your los be a source of joy in your homes

To all the waddling mamas, the Lord is our strength.

To my GTC sisters, God will surprise you all, your testimony is near.

My able captain @britneystacy, as for shawl and blanket issue, i'll prefer flannels and receivers, because, flannels can be used to wrap lo in place of shawl, cos they are bigger and lighter, shawl n blanket are is too thick . Secondly, in my place n family, we don't actually gather people to do naming so no need of shawl, that very day wey lo arrive, we don name am , the only thing we invite people for is church dedication.so if that's d case with urs too, no need for shawl, cos am telling u afta wearing lo body suit inside, sleep suits outside, covering cap and wrapping with flannel,keeping d room warm, u r good to do, my daughter's shawl is still brand new cos we didn't use it up to 3tyms sef.

Lmao :Dhahahahahahahahah, this tuesday is sooooooo haute

Mompurity Mompurity Mompurity, how many times did I call you? There is God oooo, so na like dis we go d ey?

BritneyStacy:

If I teach you, you go give me libido or go Sambisa go find my own make we do trade by barter

Make I just pity you since you be June mama and we don dey enter June make you go dey practice am at least 2times a day and prepare your cervix so baby will come out fast fast
Lie on your side's either left right. Place a pillow under ur waist or bum bum to raise it up a bit. DH will kneel by your side's and take from there. You can raise one of your legs, the one on top on his shoulders kinda....and enjoy your ride .

my team captain, why are u teaching me bad thing? am still a virgin oooo , will tell my mother for you.

CovenantBabies:
Thanks a lot Mitchy. I guess I better go with pregnacare max alone then. Thanks so much again wow at ur comment on VitB6. Are u sure its not the 100mg 2x daily most of us were taking after ovulation each cycle that had made morning sickness to decide to be far away from us new preggy Mums. Thank God sha o.

@Evacroft, thanks for your response. I just don't see any reason for this my using cyclogest honestly if not that I have a history of low progesterone. Cos from Mama Zaynie's point, it's mainly for people with history of miscarriage or who have bleed, but I haven't had any of those. So am thinking of stopping after week 9.

Udoomama lols, I caught u red handed. Abeg check & let me know. How about metformin?

@Feddy27, yes o, Thank you. I wish for such symptomless pregnancy period throughout. Enjoy mama

sorry dear,my subscription expired yesterday, well, as for me, I don't have any history of miscarriage, but my gyn placed me on the cyclogest plus progesterone injections cos according to him, since I have pcos, my progesterone level might be low, so to be on the safe side, he placed me on it. I started the cyclogest from 6weeks, cos that was when I went to see him after my bfp, I took it till week 15, when I went to see him again, that I should buy the cyclogest one pack again and he added duphaston for me, but. I didn't take the cyclogest again , I bought only d duphaston and took for just a month and stopped. As. For the metformin, immediately I got bfp, I took it for one more week then I stopped.

CovenantBabies:
Udoomama, ehehhhh thank God ur online today. I can see you! Hope ur good. Please at what week did you stop cyclogest & metformin?

Cc: Mompurity2

hahah, lol, so u don catch me , oya help me calculate am, cos I can remember d weeks now, but I saw my lmp nov7th, started cyclogest dec16(that was when I saw my gyn) and from that day, I used about 4 packs. Abeg lemme check and get back to u,

When the spirit of the Lord is upon my life, I'll dance like David danced. And finally around 7:30pm my little princess came to this world weighing 3.4kg..#VBAC. Bs later lemme sleep small biko

Okayy, it was this your post that made me ask. VBAC is vaginal birth after ceserean section.

BritneyStacy:


Happy wedding anniversary to you....May Jehovah continue to be the desired third cord in your marriage. ..
Your cake looks sooooo yummy but I need fruits instead

To your questions :
1. I don'tknow how exactly the nappy looks like. Is it like the ones our mother's used? That will require you buy pins to fasten them in one piece after wearing Hansel? Or the nappies has it's own fastener kinda? If it has it's fastener, I would suggest You keep it and use IF you will have a lot of help at home after delivery. ..that's in-laws or your own people. ..they will be happy to help you wash them....but if you won't have help, feel free to dash it out or sell as you wish

2. Brand new bed for 2500naira? ?
Please what kind of bed? Is it this net and foam ? Where did you see it for 2500naira? ?? Do you have pictures? I would love to see it....I wouldn't mind sending You money to buy and send for me ooo

3. What's the nature or line of business of her company? That could determine what you ask for...
Oil and gas ? ICT? These are companies that make good money sha so you ask for walker, car seat, breast pump....if a smaller company, ask for baby carrier, feeders or so...other mamas will suggest

teaamie I think the bed mitchyy was referring to is something like this, this is the bed I know that goes for 2500 -2800 depends on where u r buying. There are some for 1500-1800 too sef

Convenantbabies

It can only be God, am so happy for you babes, I can imagine the joy, remembered when I got my bfp too . God who started this good work will complete it in Jesus Name. You are all welcome Expecting more mamas to port here insha Allah.

@mitchyy, happy anniversary, may love surpassed everything else in your home. Cute couple

@ginababy happy birthday dear, long life and prosperity, plenty babies and money in Jesus Name

congrats mama, may she be a blessing to the family. Read your BS, what a swift and easy delivery,thank God. U said u were induced? Iearnt they don't induce after a previous cs.

tchiwinnie:
@udoomama, sorry just seeing my mentions. Don't know if u ve gotten answers to ur question.
Frm ur LMP, u shld b 28wks today. U can calculate it urself. Just check ur calendar and count how many weeks there are btwn Nov 7 and nw. The later a scan, the less accurate for dating.
For the mode of delivery, I don't know wen u had the emergency cs.If its not too close then VBAC s possible even wt multiple pregnancy provided there are no other contraindications. However, if the leading twin remains breech, then ur beat option ll b to opt for an elective cs as ur husband has said.

thanks dear, I had d cs was done 3yrs ago, the leading is cephalic while d 2nd is breech, don't want to give birth to twin A vaginally, then twin B cs , will see how it goes, if by 35wks it's still desame will just go for elective cs, thanks once again.

sugah:

Ok, pray for us.

, sugah u got me laughing abeg, I need the prayers too, , but jokes apart oo, lawvlypearl, I didn't want to sound harsh, in my own little knowledge, when u r preggy and see blood, even though it might not be anything but, one ought to be scared, your dr say bring your things, you say you want go church , we are not praying for anything bad my dear, but supposing you have an emergency in the middle of the night? You are due already, pls go back to the hospt like your dr said abeg. We are talking of blood not water oooo

Gr8fulHeart:
rukemi291, I logged on to say sorry. may God comfort u, pls grieve as much as u want, I'm sure the hurt will lessen over time.
who has heard from udoka2, I hope she is fine oo. all d waddling momas and those doin vigilante, may Jehovah be with you all. may he make your joy complete.
udoomama, hope u fine. rgrds sis

my sis, am doing fine, just small cough d disturb me, thanks for asking

PresVA:
Blessedmum , what are the uses of baby shawl and clip? Are they really necessary. . Doesn't receiving blanket do same work as shawl? ... then, don't know what clip is..

Thanks. .

clip is peg, the one the use to hold clothes on dryer, as for the shawl, it is used mainly to wrap baby, and yes it does same work as Receiving blankets, for me, there is no need buying the shawl cos most tyms u get to use it just twice or thrice, it's too thick for my liking and most babies of these days don't like over wrapping .

Rukemi291:
Thanks a lot mothers. I am fine now.
For those that asked for reasons....

A scan showed d placenta was quite close to the cervix...and there was absolutely no amniotic fluid during delivery and I never noticed any liquor drain.
Neutrophil count as at yesterday was 91% so I'm currently on heavy intravenous antibiotics...

I hope these info can help doctors in d house to advice other mothers.

I pray that God In His infinite mercies and love not let any mother cast her young again. NEVER AGAIN.

Congrats to team May Ladies that have their babies. God will protect them for us.

I love you all a great deal. Thanks for the support and prayers. I will leave pregnancy thread for some time.

But pls, whoever needs financial assistance should pls copy me.

Gaily04 it's you I wanted to write jare not Ginaz.

Surysuri, my dear sister, it is well with us.

ATC mothers you will carry your live and healthy kids very soon. I know God will answer my prayers after forsaking me.

It's well with us lagbara Olohun. Insha Allah.

thank God u are fine now, it is well dear,awaiting your testimony very soon.

lawvlypearl:
Thanks to all that responded to my question, just left the hospital and resting nearby...d doctor did a vjay examination so painful something. Asked if I'm with my bags, I said no, he said I should go and prepare and come back tonight, I objected, that tmrw is my anc so I'll rather come then but he insisted I come back tonight, that I'm in labour already....

Meanwhile... I'm going to church for a program

God bless you all.

#Teammayforsupernaturalandeasydelivery.
Pls put me(teammay) in your prayers, hoping to share the goodnews soon.

pls mama, why not go with your Dr's advice, since you are seeing bright red blood? At least they can monitor you if you are close. Awaiting the good news.

Treasure95:
God blessedme n my family with a BBG last nite#teammay God is great

congratulations

@Joysa, nwapastor and pintoxx thanks so much, will just have an open mind, sometimes I will think of d advantage of having an elective cs, will be happy cos I will see my lo's very soon , and some times will want to wait for vbac just so that I will heal fast and massage my tummy very. Well . In all let God's will. Be done.

soonest:
@udoomama, sorry about the cold. You are sneezing hard dats why you hv tummy pain coupled with a stretched out preg tummy. You can't do much abt that. Vit C will help and inhalation of menthol crystals dissolved in hot water. The catarrh will run its course and stop.
2. Don't bother about the weight pls. With LMP, u r 27wks +. Note that twins come earlier.
3. Work with your doctors. The leading twin may become cephalic since there's still time. With a previous scar n carrying multiple, your dr may not b keen on vbac. Just go with their judgement. Most doctors do an elective CS for twins between 35 to 38wks.
4. No idea

thanks dear, will practice the hot water stuff, I thought so too, I can't wait to carry my los.

princessKF:


Don't mind ur Lo's, since they are twins they may come out small.... my twinny weighed 2.5 at birth and I weighed 2.2. The only thing is that you may not be discharged immediately. As for the sneezing, I think it is the weather, i've been down with serious cold myself, try to take warm things nothing cold for now an a warm towel on your forehead. It is well with us.

thanks dear, will do just that, at what weeks did you deliver? And was it VB or CS?
