hello everyone,been a while. Really don't know where to start from but pls,join me in praising God for d safe carriage n delivery of my son.The entire period n process has been God n He's still at work in us.
I had my baby on June 16,he's been such a peaceful boy.D pregnancy process to delivery was like a dream cos of my initial experience:having miscarried a 5+ months pregnancy by my water breaking n having to loose d baby 2days after delivery at 7 months 3 yrs ago.God has finally favoured my home after another 3yrs.

B4 this yr runs out,d Lord will cause His face to shine on everyone here n shouts of joy won't cease on this tread asfrom now.B still n knpw that He's God Love u all.

@pinky,wow! How time flies!God has really been faithful o! Abeg,do u do d long walk n marching d stairs exercise? Also,dancing is a good exercise at this time.

@prettymomma,it's normal for u to b worried as I felt d same way too but u don't need to. Just be rest assured that God that has brought u this far will take u till d end. I learnt too that babies have their down times too,just taking it easy et al. Even when I complained to my dh then,has asked me if everyday was christmas for me,Lol.No shaking dear,God is fully in charge.

@safe,trust u're doing great?Don't worry,ur miracle is closer than we can imagine.

Am almost in my 36th week but it feels like forever. It is well with us all.

Congrats to all mums dat delivered o,am so happy God has been faithful to us.

To all who are in d waiting room,rejoice cos it's a settled case already that u're joyful mums of nations. Walk in faith n not by site. No matter what seems to be d obvious,let His word n promises be ur ONLY reality. Am waiting for more bfp announcements o!

Hello everyone,ve been silent cos ve been doing exams.Just got thru with it yesterday.It's been quite hectic and stressful but to God be the glory.
Am now going to 30weeks,God,am so happy it's getting closer.Can't wait to meet my baby.We've not been able to identify sex yet,cos,d last scan I did,d baby just crossed legs n refused to open up,Lol.Will ve anoda one done soon.My back and legs are the ones showing me now but it's all manageable.I sleep more now like a drunk too.Apart from that,nothing than the lovely rigorous movements,always active.
How's everyone else?Hw,believer,pinky,prettymama,etc?Trust u're all doing great?The Lord will continually be ur strength n c u thru,Amen!
I pray we'll ve more bfps very soon flood this thread IJN.

@golden baby,I have a friend with a 24 days cycle n has 2 children now.So,for as long as it's not shorter than 21w days,d length is not an issue.We re all different.Just as it's been earlier said,take it easy n enjoy urself dear.It mostly happens at d least expectedd times n we do not follow rules,when we just live life,when we let go n let God.It is well.

@marygol,all d glory be to God!!!He is ever faithful and able.He that started it is faithful to complete it.All will be well with u and the baby all thru this pregnancy IJN.Just drink loads of water n eat healthy n take enof rest dear.
@tjskii don't worry dear.D baby is just prolly more down there that's y u're feeling it that way.Ve felt the same way before.Ur baby won't be too heavy for u to carry full term by God's grace.

@marygold,I was told d same thing o.After d last scan at 7weeks where there was foetal pole(n dat I was miscarrying cos I was also spotting),I decided not to scan again till 12wweks+ n just had the confidence that God who did is able to sustain it.I just continued my prenatals n doc also placed me on duphaston till week 12.Hold on dear n don't loose faith,God is faithful n able.

To increase ur blood level,u can juice clean ugwu leaves n drink a tall glass per day with food.Also,eat more of liver n efo riro(shoko vegs).Those work like magic. Go has blessed us with abundance of these things.

For sore throat,grate some fresh ginger into boiled water n let stand for 3-5mins,add pure original honey n lemon juice(not lime) n drink. D mixture is very good for sore throat,cough n cold,n healthy too.

For anyone who wants to detoxify or has issues with fibroid,kindly send me an email.God will sort everyone out.Baby dust to all in d house.

I sincerely understand how mamat is feeling,really. One thing I know for sure is that it is well.When God mandated us to be fruitful,He meant we have all it takes to be fruitful unless we are tired or don't want to. Be still n know that He's God.
I was watching on d tv of someone who in d process of ttc n all sorts of fertility drugs n injectables,she found out she has breast cancer that wasn't there one time n was advised after surgery not to ttc for d next 5yrs or so.A woman that came in during d show to visit me who is also ttc told me of sister of hers that she was ttc n was also placed on drugs n injectables,eventually,she had breast cancer too,one of her breasts was cut off,later,d oda one was also cut off n eventually,she died. These stories n lots more,especially based on research made me lay all to rest in him n keep myself healthy naturally.It's so sad but my dear sisters,we must encourage ourselves in the Lord.What I tell people ttc is that u must believe neither u nor dh has a problem.U're fruitful n very fertile,no matter whAt.
An uncle of mine who happens to own his lab was asking y he now has so many ridiculous fertility cases n he later concluded that d stress n our diet n medical advancement,unlike our parent's times,are crazy n affecting our health status including fertility.So sisters,pls,let's focus more on living n staying healthy than ttc cos pregnancy will come naturally n with it will be healthy pregnancy carriage of 9 months pregnancy.With this in mind,it makes the jouney easier.Also,keep blessong n thanking God,enof of d request,He has done it a long time ago.Remember that d af u c is what some people are paying n praying for,talkless of getting pregnant so,thank Him in all things.He's faithful and able.Love u mothers of nations.

U'll have to wait till u're very close to ur edd b4 u take bitterleaf juice o.The recipe is ust ginger,garlic,lemon n honey.N pls,remove the notion that ur labour will be long,it's a lie from d pit of hell unless it's what u want.Have faith sis.

If u've passed ur edd n nothing seems to be happening,speak to ur baby in faith that God has given u d authority,speak to ur body to comply too.Take long walks,climb d stairs up n down n not too slow o,drink a glass of bitterleaf juice(it induces contraction n shortens delivery time) n bd with hubby too(if u can).I prescribed d same for a friend of mine n like 3-4days after she started all these,she delivered n it was short.It is well with u.

@pink22 n @mrs pepeye,I sent u email.

mrs pepeye: Thanks all the wonderful ladies in this group. I am using Asheitu adam bitters ( which is extremely bitter u can't imagine) but the problem here is that you can be sure if its the real one or the fake cos the first bottle had a diff shape from the new one I bought. Anyways I take it once @ night.

Pls,send me a mail,I have a few questions to ask you.Tnx.

I took d bitters with a detox tea n other health tips(check my earlier posts)) mainly to improve my overall health n not for pregnancy(I was tired trying).D bitters detoxifies,reduces blood sugar level,improves d overall well being.I detoxified cos of my knowledge of our liver function et all,especially because I decided I was never gonna take drugs again,I decided to flush off d ones ve taken out of my system.I believe it tonned out my liver,flushed my system(I actually felt healthier),vitalised my body making my systems function as they should.Cos I was battling with hormonal issue(practically lactating) n since d function of d liver is to balance out d hormones n control digestion(thereby reducing n controlling blood sugar level),I think it contributed in that regards coupled with other natural things I took.My younger sister who also had menstrual irregularities also took d bitters to correct it n it worked.Getting d original in 9ja is anoda thing but I can give u my contact if interested.

@Mrs pepeye,which of d bitters are u taking and how exactly are u taking it?Am asking cos a conversant with them,I took asheitu bitters with healthy lifestyle practice n that was d time I got pregnant so let me know mayb I can help.

Personally,I only observed healthy lifestyle n was also taking raw garlic n ginger with lemon n honey,morning n nite.I was giving some herbal liquid to drink by a herbal specialist who deals mainly with pregnant women.That was y I said she should send me an email cos I noticed it also worked for my hubby when he was feeling like he had malaria n my younger siser too,they didn't ake even pcm.I've also not taken d least pcm in this pregnancy so far,just pregnacare.God has really been faithful thru this 21weeks n is still faithful.I hope u understand now.

@flakky26,if u want to go herbal,I know of one that has proven very effective.Send me an email.

@tjskii,I was also diagnosed with thyphoid at like 12wks but my dr wouldn't allow any form of meds so I went herbal n ve been fine since then.Baby is also doing great.Send me a mail so we could talk further on things u can do to stay healthy in pregnancy.

@blendy77,a big congrats to u n dh o.God is indeed faithful to they that wait patiently on Him.
@omonikiba,am still expecting ur email o.Abeg,we need to talk asap.
@All,d time is Here n now!It is well.

@omonikiba,congrats and it is well dear.Pls send me an email,can't find your addy anymore.

Happy new year all n thanks hb for asking after us.We're doing great so far n God's been really faithful. In my 17th week now n it's been God o,all d glory to Him alone. Am not always so hungry as I expected so I just eat normally like twice or thrice a day. Those in d waiting should brace up cos I trust God to do a massive conversion in that regards.

Merry Christmas to everyone n may d reason for this special season ever be evident in our lives IJN.
@mamaT,what can we say to all these things?,if God be for us,who can be against?NOBODY!Am so happy for u dear n I know God is in this with u so enjoy the next 8months.
@favored gal,I think the spotting/bleeding u see mid cycle is ovulation but if u aren't sure,just like people here suggest,it's best u track it with a scan.I have a few friends who bleed slightly while/just after ovulating.
@All,baby dust this season and sticky vibes.

Am feeling a lot better now after d show of last week of serious body n joint pains,pretty high temp,feverish feeling,extremely emotional et al since last week.I went for my appointment this sat and was relieved by d scan,seeing my LO moving about.N am thankful to God that am past my first trimester,14th week now.God will continually see us thru till d end IJN.

By d way,pls,where's Udoka o?Pls dear,pop n say hi,it is well with u.

Pinkydaisy,only God could ve only one it.All glory to Him alone.
Alwaystrue dear,tnx a bunch n I know u're joining in soon.Do u know till it happened,I was still lactating(milky boo.bs discharge)?God is ever faithful n there's absolutely nothing He can't do.

For the first time I came across this wonderful thread,God has really faithful.
Our marriage is almost 4yrs already and am so happy for the great thing God has done to my dh n I. It was a case of obvious hyperprolactinomiaq,tests revealing extremely high prolactine n almost no prgesteron which made d conclusion of impossible ovulation.I eventually told God I was done trying,I was no more in a hurry cos I knew He has a special gift in store for me.I just got busy with biz n all,loosing weight,detoxifying,eating healthy and all.We also determined not to take any form of fertility drugs cos we believed we've taken too much already.Hubby's test also was saying almost no sperm count with 90% dead n deformed so we laid it all to rest in Him.That was the. Cycl it unexpectedly happened.We didn't really knack then(we planned for later),we were both extra busy n dh travelled mostly too.I just noticed I was cramping like 5days b4 expected af so I tot af was coming earlier so I decided to intensify my exercise(skipping n jogging).After 3days of cramping,I decided to use my strips that will expire soon n it turned out positive.I couldn't believe it,my dh asked how come when I called to tell him.Am in my 13th week now n showing already n feel heavy at times in my lower abdomen.Am also feeling movements seriously already.My clinic appointment is this saturday,would be scanning by then.
@udoka dearie,d enemy is only trying to distract u o,don't let him.Focus more on ur heavenly father,go thru d scriptures n forget whatever will look like u're giving d enemy too much attention.Trust me,I won't sweat over it cos I know all is well cos my father is d one in charge n d victory has been ours all along n we won't take for granted d sacrifice on d cross.It is well dear.Luv u and 12:35:39's hear from u.

Join me in praising God as he has graced me to c the begining of another year of my life.He's been so faithful.

@Udoka Congrats once again!I don tell una b4 naa!All d glory be to God alone.
@Camrygail, OMG!!!Congrats dear,God be praised for this great thing He has done in our midst.It is well with u both IJN.She's blessed among her peers n for signs n wonders.Hugs n kisses to her for me o!
@All,God is ever faithful n never late.D best meals dey take time to prepare o,it is well with us all.Luv y'all.

@Udoka dear,I've congratulated u earlier n am oing a bigger one again!CONGRATS dear!!!Pls,don't let any fear of foe deny u of the joy u're suppose to experience in this special gift God has blessed u with.Whether u decided to ignore it(which always isn't d case) or not,it does not change a thing.That which the Lord has done is permanent and perfect,don't let fear determine ur decision,let go of the past and enjoy what d Lord is doing now.If it were me,I'll test in faith with thanks giving in my heart for God honouring my request.The bible says we overcome d devil by the BLOOD of the Lamb and by the WORDS of our TESTIMONIES.I was also told not to tell anyone whenever I confirm pg,whoever sees it will know.I just thot of several people who didn't tell anyone n still had issues at latter months of d pg,I just resorted wholely into God's hands,sealed my miracle by testifying to d glory of God.
It's really ur choice but whatever decision u make must not be born out of fear but faith.Bless u dear n happy 36weeks ahead.

@omonikiba,I'll rather u go n retest but it's also possible to be infected and not experience symptoms. If an infection is confirmed,it's better it's treated first b4 fertlity/hormonal drugs are taken as infections are also mostly responsible for hormonal imbalance.So it may just mean"take away d infection n d hormones automatically balances out again".Personally,ve not had good experience with bromocriptine as I took it for almost a year with not result.I did another test just b4 I got pg which reveal an extremely high prolactine n virtually no progesterone so io decided I was never gonna take any form of fertility drug again,rather,eatinG n living healthy.So,don't worry,no matter what is being said,God can do ALL things.
@All,rejoice in d Lord,i say rejoice.
