Hello mothers in the house I need your help and advice.
My son of 21/2 years old has been having body pains that goes and comes back at times every two months or every months since he is 8 months. I av taken him to 3 different hospital in which we did genotype which the result is AA. The last visit to the hospital (general hospital)two weeks ago, he was diagnosed of sepsis through full blood count, injection was administered for 3 days and antibiotics and ibuprofen was given and got better few days after. The pain came back again last night, I consulted the doctor that treated him, he prescribed malaria drug and pain relief medicine. Please has any one experienced sepsis before and how was it treated permanently? This reoccurring pain that my son is going through is getting me depressed, confused and heart broken. Sepsis based on my Google research indicated blood infection.
Please how can we overcome this illness?

Birth Story

This pregnancy was one big ass journey, from unexpected pregnancy, really bad MS, although unlike the first one,I could still eat.
I started expecting labour from the 37th week as my 1st child came at 38 weeks, and when it didn't come till exactly 41 weeks, it was a hell of a ride .
Hubby came down with typhoid and then chicken pox when I was 38/39 weeks and on the day pregnancy was 40 weeks, I got a membrane sweep, and saw that I caught the chicken pox, you cannot imagine how uncomfortable and scary it was, baby is even still on precautionary medicine that was bought for a whopping sum of 33,500!!!...story for another day sha. Was admitted for 3 days cos the pox got a bit complicated.
So, exactly 41 weeks, I noticed the contractions I had been feeling for weeks was a bit more painful and more regular, like 4 in 10 minutes, so off to the hospital with MIL , we gisted all the way to the hospital, and she stayed a bit, and then left to pick my toddler from school, then contractions just stopped, I was 4 cm, they kept observing till around 7:30 and then they decided to argument, I begged for the lowest dose of pitocin as all the stories I had been hearing didn't seem like what I wanted to go through, an hour later , nothing yet, hubby was around by now, then the nurse came to increase the dose , about 15 mins later , my hubby went to get us door and then I felt a "click" and the next thing I was screaming nonstop for 4 hours, . The nurse burst the water and swept membrane, baby had pooed, from there on, I got to heaven and back, I begged for CS cos I was scared of baby aspirating meconium, they went to get the anesthesiologist, but i delivered before there came sha.
So, I was checked again, they saw baby's head and my cervix had torn, toh, they put in the drip again and I had to push like that cos I could just bleed fatally, so after some pushes, my princess came forth, oyinbo pepe like this, she cried, then real work started ads cervix had to be stitched, I was put under, I woke up ever weak and had to feed an hungry baby, dunno how I got through that night, but God is mighty.
So, anyways, introducing Adunoluwa Deborah.
Naming was yesterday, so rice don finish o....hehehehe

Hello cutie! Congratulations ma'am

Part two
At 41w+3days schedule for induction on getting to d hospital I met a new doctor on duty I tried explaining my situation to her but she said she is aware so I kept my cool. The induction start at 12am with a tablet inserted at about few minutes I started feeling mild contractions on and off but fibroid make it difficult for me to lay down I couldn't sleep all through d night in d morning I was 1cm dilated d second tab was inserted and I started feeling stronger contractions, I was checked after some hours by my friend doc but I am still 1cm dilated and I was told that second tablet didn't dissolve d doc advice I do cs because knew my history b4 I got pregnant to avoid any complications so I called d new doc on duty and explain my situation she was shocked that I should av go for elcs I told her to go ahead but said d consultant that does cs is unavailable so she continued d induction with drip I was in so much pain n d fibroid was bulging below my tummy and slowing down dilation d doc came to check n told me she will do something really painful but it will help dilate fast I prepared my mind after that she send me to d delivery room and d real deal started d drip was doubled and I contractions was coming often. I was checked after an hour and I was told am 8cm dilated. After 40 minutes I was fully dilated and d midwife could feel d baby's head then she said I should push at the next contraction but d contractions were not coming strong again because of d fibroid. I started begging for cs cos I was exhausted and I av no strength to push d doc was praying and encourage me to be strong and believe that I will give birth safely. After some minutes I was dozing off doc started panicking telling not to give up then I feel a strong contraction I pushed twice and my beautiful princess came out she did not cry loudly but I could see she is alive, d happiness I feel is so much that I didn't feel pain when I was been switched up. Depression want to set in after one week of given birth thanks to d mamas that advice me am very grateful and all mamas here God bless u all. I pray for GTC mamas dat d Lord that did it for me will surprise u too. Thank God it ended in praise.
This is my princess at two weeks

BS BS BS!
Part 1
Am so grateful to God for d miraculous conception despite all odd d doctor's report concerning me were high prolactin, pelvic adhesion, narrow cervix and fibroid outside d uterus. I treated d treatable and left rest to God and I got pregnant when I least expected. The pregnancy was smooth with little ms till the 11th week when I was in pain and I went to d hospital n was admitted during d cause of treatment I did scan and fibroid was seen at the left and my baby at d right I was scared but docs assured me that it's not a big deal. Towards the end of 2nd trimester I started feeling some thing hard below my Tommy with discomfort on and off especially at night at first I thought it was the baby's head but during my antenatal I was told it is d fibroid.
On my 38 weeks appt I was told that my baby's head is past d fibroid n I shld be able to deliver d baby myself but d fibroid might cause bleeding or prevent contraction and it may lead to emergency CS.
I waited for labor to start but no sign till my due date on d 40+3 days during my antenatal d doc wanted to swap my membrane but I was scared n I refused I was told to come in 3 days to be induced. I spoke with a doctor friend who told me I can still wait for labor to till my 41 weeks plus so I waited.

She didn’t make it

Am so sorry MA my God comfort u and give u double for your trouble.

Joomie:
I've been wantingto say something to you since i saw this post but it took me down memory lane. This was me with my DD in 2016. And it was even worse cos i was in a kind of family house amidst mil fil sil bil and they all tot i was being lazy and should just get bk to my dish washing and house cleaning job within the house already. I once collapsed but for my mum that held me in the nick of time. All my in-laws did was to snort.
DD like u all know was a cry cry pickin. She could cry 5 hours stretch. She wouldn't sleep till 3am in the morning and by 5.30am she would be awake to start the day.
I didn't lactate quick enough so we started her on nan 1 hoping to switch to exclusive but no matter how long she breastfed, all i had were severe bruises on my nipples that won't go away even up to a month. I would shed hot tears.
I was shocked because i had babysat other people's baby so as against what i expected i wasn't adjusting at all to my new status
Any opportunity to leave the house especially to get drugs were my escape period. I would switch off my phone and sit at the pharmacy for one hour hoping to ease myself​ of the emotional and psychological stress i was going through.
I had severe engorgement when she was one month old and doctors were tabbing me that i wasn't breastfeeding her well. This was a child i would sit 12-16 hours at a stretch trying to breastfeed (yes, you read that right). I would sit at a spot, my mum will bring breakfast, lunch and dinner but my baby would not be satisfied. Something was wrong, my instinct told me. It wasn't pinpointed at the hospital so they sent me back home loaded with antibiotics more depressed than before.
The antibiotics made my milk supply dwindle. Munchkin wasn't adding weight as expected.
My mum, my pillar of support during this trying times then insisted she should continue with the combi-feeding. Twas during her 10 weeks antenatal that the nurse discovered she had tie tongue at the health center. That was the key that solved all d mystery. They released her tongue there and then.
Everything changed. I could now breathe. She slept well, i could now calm down to study her to know what she wanted. No lights at night, no noise, always want to be full whether on milk or formula so her loud belch could be her 3 blocks away.
Then my mum started playing her music from her phone and she would move her arms to beat at just 2 months. She can do dance now.
But my DS is quieter, calmer and more reserved.

At first i wanted to run away from her, sometimes i don't even want to hold her cos she was always frowning at me but now i miss her when she sleeps.

So dearie, whatever you feel now is normal, just make sure you take care of yourself. Eat well, don't stress yourself. Before you know it baby will clock one and you will ask yourself when did she grow. The Lord is your strength sis.

Thank you ma'am

munarule:

it is normal, I remembered how I cried the first week I delivered my first child. I will just look at him and start crying. I see it as tear of joy because I never knew God can give me a very handsome and adorable baby. He was so cute that people don't believe I gave birth to him . people normally ask if am his sister because they said he don't look like me or his father. He just have his own unique look. so maybe you are overjoyed and that's what is causing you to cry

Thanks ma'am.

zaynie:



You are going to be an amazing mom.
It's okay to feel like this.... Like something is missing or like there should be more.
It's called Postpartum depression and it's very normal.
It's your all your pregnancy /breastfeeding hormones being scattered everywhere now that pregnancy is over and breastfeeding has begun, they are trying to find a working routine plus the stress of caring for a newborn, the tiredness from attending to well wishers, the pain from labour (even if you had a short labour with no scar your body and pelvis opened wide to allow such bulk out, it's not small work) and the anxiety that sets in with a ftm on whether they are doing it right or wrong.

Try to see what works for you.
Could be reading novels.
Keeping a journal
Playing music
Keeping people around or away from you.

But know that it will pass and you will be fine.
Don't let it deprive you from binding with that cute baby.
You are going to be a wonderful mom.
Don't fret

Thanks ma

VannywealthDesi:
What you're feeling isn't strange. Many women get depressed shortly after delivery. The 'experts' say it's as a result of the hommornes and fear of whether you'll be a good parent. Was it just today these feelings started, or they've been recurring?

Whatever the case may be, talk to someone close to you whom you love (God, your husband, mom). Just pour out how you're feeling to them. Cry if you may, you'll feel better.
Sing more praises to God for every single thing you can think of. Sing to the hearing of your baby. Force that mind of yours to only dwell on the beautiful things around you.

Thanks MA it's just started today but I feel a lot better now
