legendsmother:
Shephard in warri went through my history and are saying 900k for ivf with ICSI pls does any1 have reviews or success stories about them? Any information about them would be appreciated
I know Shepherd is new.....so they may likely have new equipments.for their medical personnel, no idea.though heard someone mention their name n comparing with lily . someone is almost due for delivery .one of us here.she did at lily at her first trial.

The fact they are new doesn't mean they are inefficient. Things to consider are

1.how professional where they in their research as in investigation before they concluded u need ICSI.i now u are knowledgeable in that area

2.are the doctors calm,have listening ears,friendly, NOT MONEY CONSCIOUS

3 . Environmental Factor as in organise,did u see patients around coming to investigate or have started their procedures

4.is a team that does the procedure, do they have special team for it or do they invite people down

5.how about their staff strength n attitude

6. You can ask for a honest success rate from their matron or doctor

7. Also honest answers from people that have used them, when next u go try and engage in a discussion n ask for opinion.

8.pray n ask God for direction. ..,,it doesn't matter who or where. GOD can use any one to bless u.


lily charges 750k during promo n success rate is quite high. I pray u get pregnant naturally before January otherwise I will suggest u take advantage of the promo.just my thought

What is antiphospholipid syndrome?

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is the name given to a condition, which involves the immune system where antibodies are made acting against the body itself, called auto-antibodies.

The blood tests for presence of lupus anticoagulant and levels of anticardiolipin G and M antibodies will identify whether or not you have APS.

Having this syndrome doesn’t make you ill but it is associated with the following:

-Recurrent early miscarriage
-Late pregnancy losses
-Pre-eclampsia
-Small babies
-Venous and arterial thrombosis

The APS auto-antibodies are found in 2% of women but not all will have problems in pregnancy.

You will need to have two positive tests usually 12 weeks apart to say definitely you have the syndrome.

If you have APS, treatment is available to reduce your risk of another miscarriage.

This will usually be in the form of low-dose aspirin and low-dose heparin.

Your chances of a live birth will increase from just 1 in 10 if you have no treatment, to 4 in 10 if you take aspirin alone and to 7 in 10 if you take both aspirin and heparin.

Because of the risk of pre-eclampsia and small babies, your pregnancy will be carefully monitored and serial growth scans will also be performed.

During the divine rememberance last year 30 couples where picked and they benefited without paying a dime. The doctor told me that dollar is preferable or conversation rate of #300.


IT IS WELL

Yes 10k.depends on your bargaining power.last year I know people that paid above 2 million for sex selection and some paid 1.6k for icsi. Handled by Indians so the reason for the hike. The flight cost,feeding and accommodation is built into the cost.may this year someone had quaduplet. And it was free . yeah through divine rememberance. It's done once every year around February.

Politics › Re: Solomon Asemota Accuses Buhari Of Appointing Islamist Jihadists by wonyi: 6:52pm On Aug 11, 2016
SuperPanther:
Editor’s note: Solomon Asemota, Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), on behalf of some Christian groups in the country has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of discriminatory appointments against non-Muslims in Nigeria. The author claims that Hausa, Fulani and Kanuri Ethnic nationalities, immigrants to Nigeria are pushing the nation to an implosion.


The brazen and audacious imposition of Islamist Jihadists into key positions in the country is not an expression of religious piety but a deliberate manipulation of religion for cultural and political domination by three ethnic groups. This agenda commenced in 1975 after the overthrow of General Gowon. The Islamist Jihadists are a violent and domineering strain of Islam rejected by mainstream Muslims. We are reminded that after the Arab Spring, Tunisia and Egypt elected Islamists of the Muslim brotherhood into power. One year later, the two Arab Islamic Nations staged another revolution and sacked them. If Arab nations could not tolerate Islamist Jihadists’ domination, we wonder how Nigeria, a multi-cultural, multi-religious, multi-lingual, and multi-ethnic nation would cope with the dire consequences of flooding government with Islamist Jihadists. It is pertinent to explain that there is a difference between Islam and Islamism. While Islam is a religion, Islamism is but a political ideology that holds that Islam is not only a religion but a political system that must dominate wherever Islam is practiced in the world. Islamism is the ideology driving the Taliban, Al Shabab, Al Qaeda, ISIS, Boko Haram, Fulani Herdsmen and others. Islamism operates through religious terrorists and stealthily through “Civilization Jihad” (deceit) both seek to undermine democratic societies and convert them forcefully to Sharia states.


All attempts to draw the attention of the Buhari administration through previous press releases and press conferences have, mischievously, been interpreted as politics. We are also dismayed that the Christian Coalition Group as well as other arms of Christians in Nigeria that have expressed concern about evolving issues in the nation have been described as members of a political party (the PDP). This is a very disappointing response to very serious national issues. As Nigerians, we have the right to comment on issues that are of great importance to the nation especially when our elected representatives chose to be silent.


While we were worried about the lopsided appointments in the security services, we also noticed, a few days ago, that the education sector has been privatized in the hands of only the Fulanis and Islamist Jihadists. Virtually all strategic federal educational offices/appointments, have gone to persons with Islamist Jihadists tendencies as heads in the universities, polytechnics, colleges of education, University Admissions Board (JAMB), educational funding and policy departments, etc. Our concern is not about the job and appointments but the fundamental Islamist Jihadists agenda that is playing out in Nigeria. What the list of students’ admission will look like in the nearest future in our nation with an Islamist Jihadist in charge of JAMB, we are constrained to ponder. Violation of principle of federal character in federal appointments Section 171 sub-Section 5 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) stipulates that the President in exercising his powers of appointment under this section shall have regard to the Federal Character of Nigeria and the need to promote National unity.


A critical look at the list of appointments by this administration shows utter disregard for issues that promote National unity and a gross violation of the Constitution. We wonder how Mr. President can relate the impunity of his administration to his mantra; fight against corruption. By flagrantly violating Sections 171(5) and 10 of the Constitution, the President has presented himself as corrupt. Below are some of the very important appointments made by “Federal Islamist Jihadist’s imperial Government” to confirm our apprehension: Chief Executives of Educational institutions:

1. Head of Universities: NUC Prof. Abubakar Adamu Rasheed Hausa/Fulani Muslim

2. Head of Polytechnics: Hausa/Fulani Muslim

3. Head of Colleges of Education: Prof. Bappah Aliyu Hausa/Fulani Muslim

7. Head of NABTEB: Hausa/Fulani Muslim

8. Head of NTI: Prof. Garba Dahuwa Azare Hausa/Fulani Muslim.

What about love making after ET.
NO NO NO

U know ivf pregnancies are usually pampered. It's advise able to avoid intercourse for the first three months. No driving, no hard job,no love making. Any thing that will induce stress. Avoid stress related jobs.

Some hospitals will tell u when to stop making love.maybe 5 days before egg collection. One major reason is to avoid infection. A situation where by the woman has a clean health with infection.

LH 15.4 IU/L ( Follicular <10.0)
FSH 18.4 IU/L ( Follicular <12.0)
Estradiol 0.03nmol/L ( Follicle 0.07- 0.60)
pls oooo kindly answer my Question
from my little knowledge, LH and FSH should be less than 5.when it's high ,the body might not be producing quality eggs for ovulation. Calm down, over the years rich meal and diet and exercise and loosing some flesh and good supplements have helped.other have gotten results and and proudly parents now.

LadyG, uve been via alot but your selflessness and ability to hold yourself and still participate in this forum like nothing is up is amazing. Im happy the procedure went well. Hold on to faith and keep putting in your best effort . infertility shall come to pass someday courage.My thoughts are always with u, hope u remember me.

On another note,my August sisters,who are those cycling this August? Lets share our experiences and support each other. Im in for just another round but most importantly the final round this August bc i believe this will be it.
After transfer avoid sugary/acidic fruits like pawpaw,oranges, mangoes, grape,lemon etc avoid spicy n peppery food,hot bath, pushing while using convenience, avoid using the stairs.

be positive, pray like the whole procedure depends on prayers,exercise faith through constant memorising the verses about fruitfulness in the bible,pray in the night,sing praises n watch comedy movies to ease anxiety.
Take more water, cucumber, avocado, egg,beans,moi moi. Eat more protein.
For the suppositories, use constantly. Injectible progesterone works better, ask if vasoprin is needed.
Be friendly with staff,ask when not satisfied or in doubt.
ABOVE ALL ,IT'S GOD

After transfer, avoid staying in bed,walking increases blood flow

GucciOluwa:
I and my two friends had our IVF done there earlier in the year. In the beginning they were nice o(the nurses sha). The doctor is only nice on ur first visit. On other visits, he just comes into the lab when the nurses have dressed you and prepped you for the tvs. Most times he's on the phone with God knows who while calling out your follicle size to the nurses and that's it o. You wee go and he'll see other people(doctor wey no gree make we start with IUI as we initially planned, simply becos the money no plenty).

Fast forward to the ET day, when it's time you'll say how many eggs get transferred to you without consultation o, nothing on the risks, chances of survival or things like that OYO is your name if Google is not your bestfriend. After the transfer(which doesn't take time becos una go plenty. We were abt 10 or more sef on my day, my friend had a two day embie transferred simply becos she wld have been the only one on the 3rd day), you rest and they give you a form abi letter telling you to call them after your PT, if it's positive, they rejoice. If it's negative, the don't pick your call EVER AGAIN!

Mine and another person's was bfn and the fishes forgot to freeze my eggs, dunno if they sold it or forgot becos I think they were certain it will work.

One person got a bfb but went to urinate at 14wks and Sth fell out and my ppl that was it o. She called and told them about it, they asked her to come to once her period came not to consult or find out what could have happened but for another cycle.

Oh and the drugs they give you will last for just 3weeks after that, you buy the rest.

Well this is just my own experience and of course that of my friend.

God's grace people!
I met the doc last year dec. How I wish he knows that starting with a non chalant attitude is not good for starters especially when ttc is a delicate issue that needs to be handled with care. Most doctors that Excel do little things to spice up situations like hospitality, doctor patient relationship n confidentiality, not hoarding information n carrying their patients along at every step.


I wish someone can call his attention, it's something that can easily be corrected.



Does it mean among 10 people that cycled,8 got BFP?

Properties › Re: Important Checks To Make Before Renting An Apartment by wonyi: 10:53pm On Jul 11, 2016
danowena:
RENTING: Important checks to make

1. Security
Before renting that house, make sure you confirm the security situation of the area or street. Simply dress normal and strike a conversation with the groundnut seller,vulcaniser, mallam or kiosk owner. Systematically ask for robbery or burglar history of the area. You could go to the nearest police station and do the needful for a good feedback. Your agent or landlord will never tell you the truth if the security is poor.
Also look at the buildings around the intended compound. Is there an undeveloped or unoccupied plot of land next to it? Is the fence around ur compound high. Are there barbed wires, electrical fencing or sharp edges on the fence to deter/discourage hoodlums? Is the gate of the compound always locked and is there any that checks the traffic at the gate if not always locked? Do not fall for the trick of we will get a mallam as soon as you pay.
Is the apartment secure? Are there adequate measures on ground to prevent easy access by burglars? Burglary proofs are properly made and fastened; doors properly closing and all locks are in good working order. Take your time to check the locks otherwise you will be installing locks at your own expense.

Ask for the security charges if any. This will help your planning and budgeting.

2. Leakages

Check the ceiling or POP for signs of leakages. If it has been leaking, you will see signs of dried water unless it has been painted. Check the decking for leakages especially at the bathrooms, toilets and kitchens. Some decks leak water and it is important you check this.
Flush the toilets and watch patiently to see signs of leakages in the toilet and on the outside of the toilet. Take your time, it is your money and your agent should work for his money too.
Run all the taps in the house (toilet, bathrooms, kitchen , dining) to make sure there is no leakage. Patiently watch as the water run through the waste pipe. Check on the other side too for leakages otherwise, the plumber will be your regular customer.

Also check the windows to ensure that they will seal properly and not allow water ingress. Check the doors leading outside to ensure that there won't be water ingress during rains. Otherwise, you will be very busy when it rains and you stand the chance of damaging your important documents.

3.Dampness

If it is a ground floor apartment or duplex, check the bottom of the wall on the ground floor. If the bottom of the walls were all tiled. This is a sure sign of dampness. If the walls are painted, check if the paint or plaster is swelling or breaking off at the bottom.

4.Kitchen

As mentioned earlier, run the taps and check for leakages under the sink or along the pipe and joints.

Open all cabinets and close them. Check the cabinet doors and hinges. Check all switches and sockets to ensure they are properly fastens to the wall and working.

5.Electrical system

If there is light, ensure that all the switches and sockets are proper fastened. This check should be done for every part of the house. A house with a faulty electrical system will frustrate and cost you more money.

Find out the power situations of the area. Some areas do not have light for weeks. While on the other hand , some areas have good power supply. If possible endeavour to stay in an area with good power supply otherwise, your living expenses will increase due to running a generator.

6.Painting

Check the state of the paint and if not in good condition, negotiate the possibility of the house being repainted. This is quite uncommon unless a new house.

7.Neighbours

Check the calorie of people living in the house. This can be quickly done by the types of cars, things you see in the balcony of neighbours, air conditioning systems (fan, Split AC, Window AC, ETC). This is subjective and some people live a humble life so this system is not accurate but can give you an idea. Don't be a king in your compound otherwise when it is time for joint efforts, you will be frustrated or doing it alone.

8.Metering and Power Supply

If possible look for an apartment with prepaid meter. That way, you can control your billing unlike the post-paid. Ensure you follow the steps that were given in this thread :

https://www.nairaland.com/3201866/before-rent-house#47134997

Ensure that there are no inherent bills on the metre.

Avoid shared metres unless you really cannot afford to so.

Try to find out if the area enjoys good power supply or not. This will help in determining your budget for running your generator.

9.Tidiness of the compound

Check the tidiness of the compound especially at the back of side that is less used. The back of that apparently. Neat house may be a dump. All the neatness could be packaging.

Find out about the means of garbage disposal.How are garbage disposed? Is it joint waste drum or individual? Is it dump truck or aboki push trucks? If joint, how is the service paid?



10. Water Supply
Ensure you know how the water runs. Is there always water? How is the water pumped. How often is the water pumping done. How many tanks does the compound have. Is the tank adequate for the number of flats /usage?


11.Shared Utility Bills

The security lights and Water pumping Machines may not have their own meter. Find out and confirm where these are connected. Are they connected to the apartment you are about taking? If so, how do the neighbours reimburse you for the extra bill incurred?

12.Cracks

Avoid renting apartments with cracks. Some cracks are due to poor plastering or stress caused by ground movements (this can be seen in a lot of houses in gbagada area of lagos). However, when see cracks in the middle of a decking, pillar or a crack that is running almost vertically on the wall; you will need to reassess to ensure that the house is not collapsing. If you don't know how to know a house that is getting close to collapse, simply look for another house to avoid stories that will touch your mother and family.

13.Spiritual covering

I understand that this is nigeria and a lot of people went to various lengths to get their money. Some went diabolic. When some people move into some houses, their financial or family situations gets worse. Some people will enter a house with 2 cars but will leave with no car , no job or very bad business. Please pray very well before looking for an apartment so that you will not be interested in the destiny killing ones.

14. Road Access

The state of the road leading to your intended apartment is of importance. Otherwise you may regret during the raining season. It is always wiser to do an inspection during the raining season or after it has rained heavily as this will reveal the true state of the road.

The road access and connectivity to major places of interest should also be checked.

15. Flooding.

Check the height of the compound to the road or drainage. Check that the German flooring is high enough to keep you from the floods when it rains. Avoid stories that touch.

Organise a party for little children in your church or anywhere, maybe during your birthday n get them to pray for u .your family should pray for u.i mean everyone gathering and praying for u.if u have grudges against anyone please settle and let your mind be free.i strongly recommend mfm programmes if possible be consistent for 3 months before your next procedure.finally u and hubby should pray as one.hubby should declare and keep pronouncing u mother of his children.

I strongly recommend two books YOU TOO CAN BE FRUITFUL and YOU SHALL NOT BE BARREN.
Decree and Declare those verses and while on the procedure wake at the middle of the night and pray.

Also ask God to open your spiritual eyes for better understanding

tearoses:
I lost someone I know through C/S.
All operations have a degree of risk regardless of where it is carried out
Even the best surgeons can loose patients due to one reason or another

I've had a C/S and a natural birth
I recovered much quicker after the natural birth and went home the next day after the birth
I was able to bond with my baby quicker and was able to get into a routine quicker.

With the C/S I was in hospital for 5 days
I was in much pain after the C/S and to just even cough was excruciatingly painful
After experiencing both, I will never choose a C/S over a natural birth unless it was life threatening, which it was in my case.

Sex after a vaginal birth? No change
Give mother nature her credit
The vaggy is not like a cheap thin hair band that just breaks due to stretching

If you want my advise, I will say only put yourself at risk if 100% required
or at the very least read up and inform yourself on the complications of surgery
If God forbid you have adhesions, you could be in pain for the rest of your life.....People do.
I Am lucky and the only lasting effect was not feeling any sensation along the line of incision for about 3 years and that was even being cut by one of the best surgeons in the business as I was told.
So I hate to think what other lasting effects other ladies with less experienced surgeons go through.
Matured......hmmmmm. I give u credit for this write up n well composed

My dear had a similar case of yours with heavy flow but still had my twins. though 3 embryos was transfered. on the process was discovered that it was one that flush out with the heavy flow. by going to scan without any heart beat is were am confused. cos during the period of bleeding it was detected during scan
why not go back to the hospital let them check and examine you and tell you the cause of the bleeding.

I also buy wonyi's advice ivf preg differ from natural preg.
God Will see you through.
Congratulations on the birth of your twins

I did a scan and nothing was found in my womb. No I've not been involved in any strenuous activity apart from driving to work and back. I try to leave from work earlier than normal too. I don tire.
Two way Approach
1.report to the hospital and tell them your experience

2. Prayerfully wait for a while before doing another scan

I took her out to summersuit hotel rooftop bar in Asokoro. My friends were already aware and they were there with us.

In the midst of drinking and cracking jokes I started telling everyone what she is to me and how I love her so deep. Before she knew it, I got to up and started addressing everyone and went on my knee and asked her to share her life with me.

That was on 13 December 2015 and our wedding is next week 25th June 2016.
Hmmmmmmm. .....romantic

good day wonderfull mommas, and may God bless the creator and also the contributors of this thread. i also thank God for making me stumble on the thread on the day my husband and i decided to go for IVF treatment, (3 months ago). i have gone through all 199 pages and ve learnt so much. From this thread, i learnt the importance of preparation before the actual treatment and this has made me take my suplements religiously. i also worked on my dieting. am using fertile aid hospital in abj due to the glowing recommendation on this forum especially from brother inwangobio. my husband and i have carried out all the preliminary invetigations and the d doc recommend we do the ICSI proceedure. i need all your prayers sisters as am schedule to start the down regulation nxt wk. HOWEVER, am very worried as the the doc suddenly changed my protocol. he said i should start d busellin injection from Day 14 instead of Day 21 which i was initially billed to commence. the Doc said he shifted the date forward cos he will be travelling and will not be around during the egg transfer if am to start treatment on DAY 21. he assured me that it's still ok if we start on DAY 14 but am still worried cos i have not read here that anybody started on DAY 14. Pls momma's has anybody on this platfom started on DAY 14? Blendy777, Lady G, iwangobio and our sabi mamas i need answers ASAP plsssssss. Godbless us all.
I am aware of day 21 injection. Other mamas will contribute. Then browse about it.success

I've done the Beta Hcg and count is 10,400, I'm using my progesterone religiously, I've started spotting again with serious cramps, I'm just confused.
You know ivf calendar for pregnant women is different. Assuming you did transfer on the 1st of June, at June 14th u are already 6 weeks pregnant. At 6 weeks a heart beat can be detected. Hope u haven't been involved in strenuous activities? Continue with your progesterone n go for a scan.
I wish u success
