Does this mean pregnant women should generally avoid pineapples? Logically to avoid activating unwanted or premature contraction. At least till one is ready

zaynie:


Have you tried walking, I read that walking makes the baby engage faster. Besides from last week to this week is long enough for baby to engage.
Yes those pains could mean you are in labour.
Is your hospital private or public? Cos I never hear of this new rule of 3.8 kg o.
My MiL always had big babies with the smallest being like 4.3 and the biggest 4.9kg and she always had them herself but with massive tears sha.

Pineapple really works o, that my SiL that gave birth to a baby on Tuesday lost her mucus plug on Friday. She went for ANC on Monday and Dr said she wasnt contracting. Midwives advised her to eat pineapples. Na so she chop plenty pineapples so tey contraction started by 2am Tuesday morning. She gave birth at about 7pm that same day.
Wishing you the very best.

Congrats once more Dunasy!

StillBumpingSeptMamas....Tyconcepts, Stadora, Niyyah, Cutiereborn, Jennifer89 et al......una sure say no be the effect of late packing be this?
Wishing you guys a smooth and easy delivery + a healthy baby to show for it too. Keep holding on!

No be late packing ooo! Bags has been packed and kept by the door for over a month. LO just dey do shakara and baking seriously but am at ease EDD was slated for 27th but as at my last ANC on the 24th, my doc said the head isn't engaged yet (that its still balloting) so he recommended lots of walking around and kpekusing which has been engaging in faithfully ...Doc also said if by Oct 1st I haven't pop LO out, I will undergo a "membrane strip off".

Am patient.

God has blessed me with a baby boy at Arne 12:45 am this morning. Even though I asked you people to pray for me and nobody offered a single word of prayer that I hv passed my edd without any sign. I still deem it fit to share my testimony. Though d devil rage but God of Living Faith took control and my baby is sharing the same birthday With Bishop Oyedepo as I ve prophesied from his conception not Knowing that God has stamped it.

Congrats ma, I rejoice with u. Please don't mind our silence, we pray for all expecting mums. Congrats once again.

Yes, pls avoid it. It contains an active principle that causes intense contraction and may lead to miscarriage and premature labour. Also avoid unripe pawpaws.

Congrats to you ma'am. Am also an expectant dad. Your son also share the same birthday with me. 27th September rocks.

@zaynie thanx for taking out time to answer me.my dear I went to teaching hospital.infact the doc told me to come for elective cs and I bought d idea without a second thought.God used my aunties to change my mind wen I got home from the hospital.i have done extreme long distance walking and that is what has increased the abdomeninal pains I am feeling now.presently, it seems like LO head is on top of my rivate part bone.funny enough I and LO have no problem.all I want is to have him in my arms.i am more than anxious that is why I have decided to go for induction on 1st of oct.i can't wait again.i want to end the whole drama of expectation.i will start the pineapple therapy tomorrow.once again, thank you and God bless you

Niyyah:

Haa u pipu r making dis induction stf scary to me FAA,cus my Dr said I will b having one dis week,does baby's weight mata b4 having an induction?y we're you induced at 38weeks?how did u sns something was wrong during the induction process? Sorii for my questions please#worried n scared ftm#

No need to be scared. Yes induction is painful but then it's faster all things being equal. In my last preg i was induced at 37weeks. Induction started by 7am and i gave birth 10am. It was very painful mainly towards the end when they increased the drip to 64drops per min. After delivery i felt so strong and was walking up n down dat d nurses had to ask dat i remain on my bed till they say otherwise. I was later discharged dat same day. This was d opposite in my 1st where i suffered for long. Pls if u will b induced ask alot of questions from d beginning to the end. Drs are very positively cautious when dealing with women dat r knowledgeable and ask alot of questions. All the best

What happened that you were induced as early as 37weeks? Just curious because I thought inducement is usually done when one has passed her EDD?

comtem2011 God Almighty bless your lo, pele no vex as we no type our prayers. Congrats dear

Thanks so much sis,rily appreciate but y we're you induced at 37weeks?

please mama's in the house, can a woman operated of appendix be affected during delivery? if she was operated ten years ago will there be any effect? if any, is there any precautionary step one can take ?

@zaynie ur story really inspired me to share my bs abt induction.
My EDD was 24 Aug but I decided to start my leave on the 10th of Aug. this is because I work in another town and I travel everyday even while I was pregnant. the distance is over an hour and the road is one of the worst road leading to a major town in this country. I still can't believe I went thru all dat while I was pregnant. I went for a long walk with Mil on the 11th and went for my ANC in the evening. the doc told me to come back in a weeks time after the normal discussions. when I got back home, the back pain i ecperienced was out of this world that i couldnt say my evening prayers even DH has to feed me and walk me to the bedroom that night. i woke up around 11:30 to wee and i saw this gush of hot liquid coming out like tap. I woke DH up and been a ftm we immediately went to the clinic with my baby things. the doctor checked me and told me that my water has broken and that I'm still closed. he said the contraction is very mild but I have to be admitted and monitored. I was admitted immediately and me and DH just they gist and watch film dey go. the baby's heart beat was tested at intervals and they still said I'm not contracting at all but baby is doing fine. in the morning, DH went to bring Mil and while he was away the doc came in while I was still watching my tv dey go. he said madam don't worry u won't even remember the tv in this room very soon. he beckon on d nurses to come in and they told me they av to pass a tablet into my Vijay. I said Oga pls let my hubby come back. he said madam this is abt you and the baby. they inserted the tablet ard 7am and the contractions begin catch me like menstrual pain. at around 11 they inserted another tab and told me they will be back by 3pm for another one and the last by 7pm. I begin do countdown but the pain wey I dey feel around 2pm was out of this world. the nurses said I'm not contracting at all judging by my Tommy. when i couldnt stand d pain DH went to the doc and he said if by 7pm there is no change they will av to do cs. My mummy Don turn Alfaress outside the hospital. At 3 pm I told this nurse i want to poo and they said I shouldn't go to the toilet. before u know it i don begin poo for the bed. the doc said he will check me for the last time before handing over to the next doc. upon checking me, he saw it dat I'm fully dilated and the head is almost coming out. I was wheeled to the delivery room and I pop out my Prince after 3 pushes at around 3:22pm.
Ever since I got pregnant my mum has turn to an Alfa because she knows I'm always very scared. even to take common vit c, na wahala. I will cry when taking injection during ANC self. so when she heard dat I'm in Labour she ran to the clinic and was praying in front of the Labour and delivery room. even when the nurses told her ive delivered she insisted on seeing me first. when the episiotomy was taking longer than necessar she was really scared and was shouting pls bring my daughter out. what happened to her? I thought you said she has given birth.
no one could believe dat I gave birth dat day cus my tommy was so small.
My bobo weighed 2.7 but if u see him now, even scale go dey fear him as him Don chop up and he is almost two months now.
so yea, induction is not bad at all.

Lol may God bless all modas,tanks for sharing,I pray mine wud b so easy o

Comtem2011 congrats on the birth of your son!

Sorry I didn't type a prayer for you to know that I'm praying, but the "like" I gave the post was my kinda prayer for you! and I'm happy you and lo is ok!
