If u’re less than 30weeks, u don’t have to bother about placenta location for now cos it will still migrate. There will be a definitive location usually from 30weeks upward. I had that darkish brown discharge too and my doctor put me on adequate bed rest. It stopped itself by the next day. Just repeat ur scan to be sure baby is fine.

peggygee:
Mamaa in the house that had/have low lying placenta, pls how long doe the spotting last?
And is dark brownish spotting normal? I'm confused, cox ive been seeing dark brownish stain on my panty liner, that type that comes out before your monthly circle. Pls help. Ive Been on bed rest a instructed for weeks now

MARCH ROLL CALL FOR TEAM MAY 2022.

Hello my beautiful and lovely team mates! How are we doing this new month? God has been wonderful to us irrespective of our different packages and challenges. We thank Him for making us enter third trimester alive and healthy, it is not by our strength nor our doing but by His grace and mercy as He has brought us this far. That being said, I believe He that has started this unforgettable journey with us will end it with us and we shall all come on here to share our BS and BA in Jesus name.

Consequently, please let us endeavor to answer roll call this is important so we would be assured we are all doing ok and if there are challenges that is beyond us then experienced mamas will suggest and advise us on what to do.

However, I hope we are almost done with shopping? If not, the great provider will surprise us in a miraculous way financially.

Lastly, let us eat healthy and take our drugs as at when due. In cases where some of us don't have appetite, please eat no matter how little it is. We shall not mourn any among us and none shall experience stillbirth in Jesus mighty name.

What are you buying that youve spent 80k in this buhari era, lol..
I squeezed and resqueezed my list oo to prevent buying what baby won't use.. I for one didn't even buy a baby bed net (the one they put on bed) reason is as baby starts growing they don't want you to put them in it again so I went for umbrella net and got a very thick blanket (if LO sleeps, I'll just cover with the net).
Ensure you get essentials first. My LO already has more than a box filled with clothes (okirika and new), I got some size 2 & 3 Diapers, Wipes, towel and all essentials like bath, hanger etcand my hospital list is reducing yet I haven't spent 40k. Location also matters in price determination maybe that's why your expenses has gone up.

That's if you choose to buy a foreign bath ma... I bought a nice bath I loved for 4800 (don't laugh). If you want foreign baby things, you will spend foreign money

Please go and buy my baby's bath and Diapers, stop looking for cot that you will end up using as storage.. A neighbour wanted to dash me hers to relive her load, i rejected it sharperly cos me sef I no want load

Towerofgrace:


Yes oo please come and pack them jare,

Una even dey buy things outside hospital list, "i laugh in spanish" me na hospital list i follow oo strictly essentials and some items that are also very important, the rest when baby comes and after naming gifts then we'll know what is lacking

My sister, that's the way to go oo. Some mums wants to buy all the buyables, you'll see them wanting to sell it on declutter pages on Facebook because many didn't even use them for long

My dear I almost cried last month that I went to buy somethings, this week nko I no fit cry, I picked somethings that did not even full a poly bag and it was 20,500 naira I was depressed..

Even if buying plenty clothes, it shouldn't all be newborn. I bought few newborn clothes, moved to 3mnths +, 6mnths+ especially if you see some clothes you like and don't want to let go..
Its that breastfeeding I don't know how to cope with cos my place of work gives only one month maternity leave and I won't like to be going to work with a one month old (some moms do shaa) and power supply here is something else. It is well

TEAM FEBRUARY 2022

APPRECIATION POST

I want to first of all thank Almighty Father and His son Jesus Christ for granting us safe delivery. We did not lose any mother, and for our lovely teamie, FlowerGirl040, just know that your bun is already in the oven and this time, the Good Lord will perfect all that concerns you.

I want to use this opportunity to thank all February mamas for their support from day one I was made cappo. I really love and appreciate you all.

For answering to roll calls and submitting your BAs and BSs even when it wasn't convenient for you. A good number of February mamas submitted their BSs thereby keeping the forum lively and helping other mamas learn one or two things.
For all these and many more, I say thank you!

We didn't hear from mom2be and bayobabe. I hope you mamas are fine. I'm handing you over to Kokaiye, March Cappo.

Finally, thank you to all the great mothers in the forum, you all are amazing. And may you all have easier and faster deliveries than we did.

For our GTC sisters, this is your year to carry your children. Just have faith and believe. Call forth your children abd watch God do His part.

Once again I say, thank you, thank you, and thank you very much.

I'll miss you guys, but we'll keep in touch in the Newborn thread.

wow really you haven't spent upto 40k ?? Mama please teach me your ways ooo

Honeysweetest:
lmaooo, some one said baby wardrobe,�,I buy only hospital list,I bought baby bath when it was just 8k,I did not buy hanger,I spread where I spread my clothes, infact,I hardly use these baby bath set sef,I use put baby on laps,stay in bathroom,shikena, no let anything stress u.

I like your style jare

I did not know there is foreign bath set oo���,cus I am seeing 25-30k here for baby bath,I think is those fancy bath set I see in market. Is there any difference ni ooo?
Buy things you will need,if u have the money fine,if u no get,buy necessary ones,even if u have plenty money,don't full ur house with unnecessary loads oooo, baby cot,baby wardrobe,etc, mk sure u are get the nessary things for now.

Omakraid:

Good morning Mummies, please help answer this question especially the bolded. Safe delivery to all mummies expecting

None cos freshly expressed can keep at room temp for only 4hrs.

You might want to read thru the ingredients for tomato paste. Why on earth would u even take that when u can boost your pcv from your iron rich meals and pre-natal meds?
