Mummies in the house, I have some questions tonight, please don't mind how foolish it might sound..
1. Hope 18 weeks is not too late to register for ANC for a first timer?
2. What are the tests done when registering for the first time?
3. I've heard a lot about 2nd Tri MCs (it won't be our portion in Jesus name) and the use of cerclage, how is it detected to know cerclage is needed and how can it be prevented?

I registered at 13 weeks and I was given TT injection. I hope the name is correct. Also my urine was taken. Normal body check up was done
That is all I know teamie

Sabi mamas will answer no 1 and 2.
For scan, asides from the ones requested by your hospital, its your money that determines that... For me, anytime I'm really down with anything and I chat my doctor, after telling me what to use, I carry myself to scan to check before using anything. I also had this aunt that her husband was always taking her tfor scan so that he can see theit little swimmer. So it depends on you

Good afternoon mamas, please is chloroquine safe in pregnancy? I was given yesterday when I was down and doctor said I should do malaria test and it was positive..I am scared as it itches me even with piriton..

Hello mama! Sorry about the itching. I also tested positive for malaria and I was given one antimalarial drug and Panadol which worked for me. I'll check the name and get back to you

The trick of avoiding nausea... NEVER STAY HUNGRY ... At 5wks, eat watever u wanna eat... Just stay away frm sugar or carbonated drinks... Eat healthy, stay healthy, practice good hygiene n start taking ur folic acid.

Thanks mama I think its working hmm God help me pass thru this stage ooo

Towerofgrace:


If you are lactose intolerant or milk makes you constipated my dear just avoid it, cos it can make you bloated and worsen your indigestion/constipation. Milk substitute I use was almond milk and soy milk during my 1st tri. Regular milk was a no-no for me.

Try fresh ginger tea, take lots and lots of water in whatever version you can tolerate, ( I could only take freezing cold if system changes warm, but room temperature made me feel sick) eat fruits to ease the constipation avoid pineapple, Berries and pawpaw, as it causes contraction and pelvic pain for some like myself

Eat in bits and take alot of water, never wait till you are hungry before eating it exacerbates nausea, rest rest and rest, it will make you feel better, your body is doing alot growing a human being so pamper it.

Pele before you know it, you are in 2nd tri and balling

You gat this mama and God got you

Thanks so much mama this is so enlightening, am really trying to eat in bits and not wait for the hunger the morning's are always the worst,can't wait for 2nd trimester.

After much review I found this article beneficial to the pregnant women and those expecting, it's about How to avoid vagina injuries at childbirth.

Below is a research done by Nurse Nma, a mother of two, a trained registered nurse/midwife but currently working as a nurse educator.

She has managed to avoid childbirth injuries at her second childbirth after suffering a 3rd degree episiotomy cut in her first childbirth.

The amazing thing is that she has helped over 250 mothers (majority of which was their first attempt at childbirth) avoid these life/ marriage threatening injuries using the steps that worked for her.

From her report she concluded that by avoiding vagina injuries at childbirth:

>You will be able to reduce the time of labour by more than half

>Your child won't be stressed out because stresses induces to babies at childbirth can cause the baby dying shortly after birth and some lead to medical conditions

>Some of the medical conditions could be deformity

>Reducing labour time can save you from protracted labour pain

>You will be protecting your marriage as well.
Many people have testified to its effectiveness too.

If you are interested, click here to learn the how to avoid vagina injuries at childbirth directly from Nurse Nma -

I wish all pregnant women good luck

You are welcome sis.

Get crackers biscuit, the one in the yellow pack or any other biscuit you can tolerate, eat upon waking up in the morning before you eat your normal breakfast and don't let it be too late before eating in the morning.

I eat my proper breakfast as early as 8am and use my prenatal in between eating not after eating, it made a whole lot of difference and didn't make me queasy like I used to if I use after eating

chaii.. so sorry, please stay strong. The Ms will soon be over like mine
Was worried my symptoms stopped early, only excessive spitting, spoke to my doc and she said there's nothing to worry about since I am still having excessive spitting, that some people are lucky like that that their Ms won't be severe. Wasn't relaxed until I did scan @10 weeks and saw baby with my korokoro eye I hear heartbeat too my mind calm down lol.
My doc said I should register for anti natal too but I was thinking it's too early, plus I dont want to register in a private hospital jare. Maybe this new week I will try and go to general hospital and register.

Good day Sabi mamas,pls my question is, I am 17 weeks and while registering for Antenatal the Dr wrote some drugs to take but there is this drugs that makes me feel nauseous after taking it, I even vomit sometimes... The name is ferofer capsule..... Should I continue with the drug or wait till my next appointment to complain to the Dr. My MS already stopped but the drug is bringing it back...

BIRTH STORY! BIRTH STORY
Congratulations to all November mamas that have welcomed their little ones, may God keep them safe from us and keep us safe for them too, as we have known their beginning we will not know their ending in Jesus name. Apologies that my BS is just coming in now, it’s been easy with a new born. Now, to our BS; after I had my son in April 2018, I had a bit of mental breakdown, the pregnancy was very eventful and after birth was extremely stressful so I decided to wait until I was mentally ready to have another since hubby and I just want two kids.
Prior to my son’s birth in 2018, I had suffered an ectopic pregnancy rupture that made me loose my left Fallopian tube but God proved himself and gave me my son 6months after ( got pregnant) despite doctors giving me 50-50 chance as per having a tube left. Early this year, hubby and I decided it was time to try for another cos he doesn’t stay in the country and God willing it was at the first attempt that God showed Himself God and I got pregnant with my princess. Because I had terrible experience with my first I had braced up for this pregnancy but this one was worse than the first; oh Lord! for the 9 months duration I never had my strength back, I had severe nausea, all day sickness even midnight too, I couldn’t take water nor eat as the fear of vomiting made me afraid to eat, I developed severe acne all over my face and neck, skin tags all over my face and neck too, I couldn’t apply cream and I hated some smells, spent first four to five months in and out of hospital as drip was the alternative to my eating, it got to an extent, they couldn’t pass line in the hospital as all my veins became weak and all my buttocks sore from injections, my thighs became the next available option. I stopped salivating at 5months after trying every option given to stop the saliva and I had given up, It took a while before I discovered that body itching will reduce if I stopped using sponge to bathe after I had changed soaps and sponges thinking that was the problem, me that I am pretty oyinbo pepper turned black and ugly , I also had boils on both my eyes that turned to charlazoin to the extent I had to do surgery at 34weeks on both eyes as the boil abi charlazoin began to block my eyes from seeing.In all this I was just thankful to Almighty and praying for a safe and healthy baby. My baby was also always lying traverse each time I went for scan and the pain on my pelvic was out of this world that sometimes while walking/ trying to turn on bed, the pain will hold me from stretching straight ( best description) I will have to stay still until after some minutes when the pain goes.
Prior to my ectopic and previous ELCS for my son which gave me two scars, my gynae/ surgeon booked me for the 6th of November as I had serious contractions a week before and was managed and put on bed rest and also cos of baby lying transverse to avoid the cord from coming out first by accident or any other means. On the 6th around 10am I was delivered of my baby girl that looked like her dad’s photocopy and I wouldn’t trade the cry I heard that’s day for any thing in the whole world. The next day I started sitting and a day after I could walk except for the back ache as a result of the spinal anesthetic and small small things, baby is fine, elder brother is fine, mum and dad are also fine.
I hereby burn my boots and give all babies trying to come my way to GTC moms, your testimony is here already.
