ok dear.

typing from my hospital bed....

My EDD was on the 23rd of this month. I registered at a Primary health care near my area and when i was asked about my previous pregnancy if i had any, i told them i had a CS before though i lost the child 5years later. I was told bluntly that I cannot give birth at the PHC so they referred me to Alimosho General hospital Igando. I refused to go because of the horrible stories i have been hearing about government owned hospitals so i registered in a private hospital.

Fast forward to my due date, due to the high cost of CS in private hospitals, i had no option than to go back to the government hospital to register. Though the doctors at the private hospital had told me i would have another CS because my baby was breech. Registering at General hospital 3days to my EDD, the doctors confirmed the same thing.

Honestly,i was marvelled when i visited Alimosho General Hospital and saw what was there. Kudos to Fashola.

The doctors at the government hospital booked me for CS on Tuesday that's yesterday when I registered last week Thursday. Luckily for me,i started contracting last week Friday so i had to rush to the hospital.

The surgery was done on 23rd January after battling with finding fluid in my spinal cord for three hours. This was to make me awake during the surgery. The doctors had no option than to give me anaesthetic which made me sleep.

My son was born around 3am and he didn't cry. After several beatings he cried faintly. He was admitted immediately but to God be the glory,he was discharged yesterday after several tests were done on his which confirmed he was medically fit.

By today,we both will be discharged.

About the cost of CS in the hospital and the disparity,i will talk about that later. smiley
so happy reading this....may GOD bless and keep ur little baby......wishing u speedy recovery....

Thank you for sharing. You were truly favored by God. I hear stories of how Govt hospitals can be harsh and rude to pregnant women who didn't register with them for antenatal but came to them at the last minutes but you were quickly attended to. That injection in the spinal cord, I learnt it's very painful. How was urs like? And how are you finding the CS wounds? Is it really painful?

Alimosho General hospital Igando is a very good hospital. They attended to me very fast even though i didn't do my ante natals there. I must say thank you to the LASG.

Yes the injection in the spinal cord was very painful. mine was very painful because they couldn't get the fluid . I ended up having a plaster at my back after several piercing to heal the wounds. I dunno if other women had theirs as painful as mine. But i must say it's better to have the injection so that you can be awake to see your baby and stay awake during the operation.

For the disparity in the fee for surgery,it's not actually the same price. If you did your ante natals at the hospital,you pay N47,500. If you were referred from a PHC,you pay N70,500. If you just came on your own,you pay N80,500. The fee is called "Theatre Pack". There is another fee which is different for drugs and it costs about N13,000. There are other fees for series of tests and post natal drugs.

Having a CS at a government hospital in Lagos is not really cheap but i think it's ok compared to private hospitals.

CS is painful only for like two days then after that,the pain will ease off slowly.

Beremx when are we coming for your son's wedding? That's an already mature man mehn grin congrats.

Blessedmum duphaston is progesterone and the surge of progesterone in pregnant women causes nausea and vomiting.

Olaoyekemi September mothers are very plenty. Most of us came from the ATC thread so we are still basking in the euphoria of being pregnant. Or maybe na MS hold some people. But we are plenty and more are coming from the ATC.

@all mamas, i have a weird question i've been scared of asking. But i know you all won't mock me too much. Is it okay to swallow your routine drugs with eba?
I can't stand drugs in my throat. The only one i can manage to swallow with water or drink is folic acid. As for the rest, i just put them inside eba and use soup to swallow it. Been doing this for months now. I hope the drugs will still be effective?

Mitchyy its very OK to put your tabs inside EBA mold as long as its not hot! Your body will still absorb it the same way if you take it with water.

Sabi mamas help me out here please at our six weeks immunization my mum refused my son from being giving the PCV1 and ROTAVIRUS1 vaccines which are called "specials" and cost 7500 and 9500 respectively! We only took the penta which cost 250 naira!

Her reason was that they were unnecessary! And the nurses too didn't say much or try to convince me to allow my son take it.
I also observed some other mother's too that their LOs didn't receive the vaccinne!
Next Wednesday is our 10weeks rounds and I want to give my son the PCV2 and ROTAVIRUS2 should I or shouldn't I?
I googled it and saw that its a combo vaccine that protects a child against a number of diseases and I feel so bad that I didn't allow my son take its first dose. Will it still be effective since we missed the initial dosage?
And does it cost that much everywhere or is my hospitals price inflated? Please help a confused mum out please.
