I want to appreciate everyone who has called to encourage me and give us assurance. I'm amazed at the show of love. May God bless you all.

Thanks for your kind heart. Ask the guy to state the amount. CS is expensive in Lagos, I had all my kids through CS, the last one, it cost me 200k. The guy should meet the sister and inquire from the doctor that will do the CS and we can try our best for her.

Thanks for tour concern too.

ManTiger:
Its too dicey as the age of the person, the stage of the fibrod comes to play.
I'm sure your sister is a middle aged woman say 35 and above.

She is 33years

Hello zikkie, how is ur sis?. At my first trimester, I noticed sharp pains all over my waist, unable to get up or sit. I had to see a doc and scan was done, fibroid of a small size was seen, not close to baby and I was under observation. doc say dat I should not worry, with prayers, my scan at 3rd trimester showed dat it has disappeared and I gave birth safely.
pls try and ask ur sis these questions.
where is d fibroid located?
What size is the fibroid?
What did the doc say abt her delivery status?
When did she register for ante-natal clinic?

I think the fibroid is in the uterus. She registered at lautech some months ago. She started spotting two months ago while at work and she was admitted, given some injections and drips. The doctor told her she was okay but needed bed rest.

Macmilla:
The op has not told us the reason for the previous CS. Without this information, we are not equiped to give any advice.
He mentioned fibroid. Was it the cause? If yes, was a myomectomy done?

I don't know what a myomectomy is but she was stitched at the base of her stomach horizontally

She had fibroid with her first but that particular pregnancy was very eventful. Swollen legs, general weakness, and her water broke before EDD but no contractions. It was an emergency CS. The baby came out with jaundice and was put inside a cot with blue light (rays)

The previous CS was four years ago

I wouldn't advise normal birth due to her medical history, my neighbour's GF died last year because of this.
They attempted a normal birth and it was complicated finally before they could perform the CS she and her baby died.
Really sad, i know some general hospitals would still accept her due to the seriousness of her case, please raise
funds and let her check into a reputable general hospital ASAP...off topic, a pregnancy is planned and
even when unplanned we have 9 full months to prepare and save towards it, women learn to save and
plan ahead please.

Thanks dear. She actually did plan. But so many things have happened in a short period of time which I can't start explaining. It is well with all.of us. Evil shall never know our dwelling by God's grace.

My sister in law lost her baby last week.
She had a big size fibroid and also gave birth vaginally. She was in labour for about 5 hours before the baby came but the baby didnt cry after she came forth.
The doctors did all they could to make her cry e.g. I Was told theres an injection they gave her but she still didnt cry.

We discovered the baby had mucus in her nose, ears and eyes.(What could cause that)?

Dont know how that came about.
After about 10 minutes, the baby pooed and peed but stopped breathing thereafter.

It was very painful. She cried her eyes out. I had advised her to do a c section but she was obstinate.

I understand she took a very huge risk.

So @ op i advise you try everything within your means to raise the money.

How much have you been able to raise? Lets see we can help out.

God will make a way for her in Jesus name.

Jesus have mercy!!!!

I am in Lagos. I am ill so currently off work today and tomorrow. How can I reach u?

I'm not able to reply PMs. Could u please text your number to me so I could call you? Thank you.

cacali:
My dear!!! I can understand what ur sister is going through o. Had my baby a year ago thru CS. I have about seven fibroids, made up of the three types of fibroids and V-birth was not even an option for me at allllll. My doctors said they couldn't even let me fall into labour, so they fixed my date for 2 wks b4 my due date, when it seemed like we wld have issues with baby's life, the moved it closer again anoda 2 weeks. Yes I believe in miracles cos even they conception and birth of my baby was one, but pls pls pls prepare for CS. But her doctors shld have told her of the possibility of a V-birth. I still have my baby things and won't mind sharing at all with your sister. But don't know whether u can still be able to pick it up within this short time. Don't worry abt election, only a mad man would try to stop woman in labour going to the hospital. Let me know if u r interested.

Thank u. Yes we are interested. Where are u based please? I stay in Ibadan. Thanks so much for your concern.

@nyafunyafu and jboixxx. I saw your pm. Tried replying but its bouncing back (Mailer Daemon).

Hmmmm.... Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this thread. I'm in tears as I type cos, I love my sister sooooo much and would want to see her happy at all times.

I may not be able to quote every poster, but I would explain. She registered in LAUTECH but even her ante-natal sessions according to her, were not as thorough. Mum insists she comes to book in UCH while we run around for funds.

My number is 08128520564.

She would be in Ibadan today to book at UCH.

Hello dear,
V birth is possible cos my friend had CS 2years ago and just had anoda baby last month thru V birth, it's just that ur sister's case is different cos of d fibroid and d fact dat she's had CS b4.
Depending of d location of the fibroid, Vbirth might be risky but I believe in Miracle.
Most private hospitals won't even allow her go into labour, they will book her for elective CS cos of d fibroid. I'll advise u source for fund incase Vbirth fail i know it's not easy. God will help her.

Amen. thanks dearie

9jatatafo:
Open up and solicit for help financially, your sister should go for another CS to save her life and the baby. A woman who already done CS and has fibroid is a very complicated issue. Miracle happens but don't take chances. If you have anybody in Lagos, I will say you move your sister to Lagos as some general hospitals charge relatively low for CS. With under 60k it will be done. Solicit for help please.

thank u so much for your concern. I appreciate

Thanks so much for your contributions. We are running around trying to raise funds. Meanwhile, she would be coming to Ibadan to book at UCH. don't know what their charges would be but we are still hopeful.
my prayer now is that she doesn't fall into labour on the election day cos her EDD is 29th (Sunday).

We would appreciate help from anyone who can. even with baby items please.

Even with polygamy

If they feared their husband so much

They wouldn't pour sand or salt in his soup #rivalry#



My greatgrandmother was an Ijebu woman

She married her husband, also an Ijebu

She was the 2nd wife

According to my mum, he married her because the first wife was mean

She was devil reicarnate

Sometimes when she is angry

She wouldn't serve him his food

Did it changed when he married my greatgrqndmother

It did but then sometimes she had to travel Oyo on foot to buy her goods

Who cooked for him while she was away

She died before the first wife

And even at that old age

It did not change anything- she will share her food when she feels like it

Most of these men get punished for their mistakes while they were young

The women that endured it made sure they paid them back when they were helpless



This is not just mere words o

You carry out the research yourself

I laugh when people say women are more insolent

No, they are not

They simply could't wait like their mothers did

Even most loving Mummy and Daddy relationships you see nowadays

Try to observe and live with them for a couple of days and see how the man is being treated

You go fear

Intelligent!

Osyxcel:
Pheeew! Really dicey situation.

I pray God takes control....

Osyxcel baba!!!!! I see you! Amen. I know he will

Macmilla:
Once a C-section, always a C-section. Add dt to the fibroid she's carrying which we don't know the position, and you won't need me to tell you not to gamble with your sister's life.

Best case scenario, she goes back to C-section as an emergency.
Worst case scenario, she gets a ruptured uterus.

That being said, I must admit that miracles still happen.

The choice is yours.

Thanks Macmilla.

Queendo:
I really feel ur pains, I understand what it meansand how much it cost to treat a cancer patient. Its well. Let her try UCH in IB or better stil pls cry out for help. Let's not tak chances pls.

Thanks dear.

Queendo:
Where is ur location? Pls don't do pennywise pound foolish. Expect she goes to church for serious prayers, but then pls let her prepare for d unseen.

My dear, its not penny wise pound foolish o. We haven't recovered from my dad's cancer treatment expenses and everyone is dry financially. She is based in osogbo. Lautech doctors are on strike

Hi Efosaval, the thread seems to have slowed down drastically.. I just tried sewing a trouser for my girl and in confused about the fixing of zip in front. Could u pls explain?

Good day nairalanders,
I'm writing on behalf of my sister who happens to be pregnant and due for delivery in less than two weeks.
She has fibroid growing alongside her baby. Her first child was birthed via caesarian but as it is now, she doesn't have the financial capacity to go for a caesarian and insists she would try out the vaginal.
Apart from my parents and my younger sister, she happens to be all alone in this race as her husband had been violent and now has lost his job.
We wouldn't want to take a risk, but the teaching hospital where she is located is on strike which leaves her with the alternative of using a private hospital.

Your advice would be highly appreciated please. Thank you.
