Yes I did cerclage.

Tgirltemmy:
Good afternoon mummies,

I just got my second scan, baby is doing well and good.

Permit me to ask, fetal weight is 0.49kg at week 22 it's that okay?

imsettled2:


Thanks so much, I appreciate.

cinderellashoes:


I think the fetal weight is okay since you still have a long way to go. Did you find out the gender?

How I wish I did
I was advised to do it but as I was waiting for money to do it, I had membrane rupture of the lead twin(T1)'s
sac at 16wks+ so I started having liquor drainage/leakage, an Arabian pessary (alternative to cerclage) was inserted, the drainage/leakage stopped for 12hrs and started again as am typing this I'm in the hospital because I have been placed on bed rest with raised foot of the bed. More like hanging my legs but the liquor is still draining especially after any body movement including pee and poo even though the leakage is not much.

My problem now is that I have to be in hospital (bed rest) for as long as it will take the liquor to stop draining.
Experience Mamas and doctors in the house pls is there any thing I can do to stop this drainage? Pls I need ideas and
Suggestions.

May the Lord be with you Mama, please try not to worry too much. As for the amniotic fluid, I have no idea how to make it stop, I guess having enough rest and less worrying will help. Can the cerclage still be done at this stage? No harm will come to you and your babies in the name of Jesus. Amen.

callola:
aww, so sorry sis, my own drainage started around 25 weeks but it was caused by lifting heavy objects, I was placed on bed rest for 2weeks before I was operated because the fluid was reduced. baby was weighing 0.8kg was placed on oxygen for 8 hours, place in phototherapy, no incubator, discharged 3 weeks later. she is 5 years now, no health challenges but the experience no be here. hang on and follow your doctor instructions. you will testify

shiller:

Stop worrying Mama,the Doctor's are doing there best,it will end well,just do as they said..

Bloomingbud:



I'm so sorry about this, I dont know what else can be done at this stage but be great assured that God is in control and you wont loose the second baby. Try to remain on the bed as much as possible.

It is well with you and as your name implies it is settled by Gods grace.

BS ALERT

After some years of TTC from being told that pcos, prolactin then hormonal imbalance. God decided to smile on us through Eek fertility (not an advert but bitter truth after English medicine refuse to work). We fasted, prayed, i work on my diet and lose some weight.

First and second trimester was so sweet, no vomit, no morning sickness but I eat sha.
Third trimester came with left rib pain without a cure but left after given birth.

During one of my antenatal visit, Dr said everything is fine with me but I will do VE to check for pelvic and if everything is fine, when I see labour signs, I should come to the hospital. But it was unfortunate that my pelvic was very small. I was shouting and crying all through the VE. So I was advised to do CS that if I insist on birthing the child through virginal that when the baby get to the pelvic he will be stuck and I will end up with emergency CS.

So we were told to do pelvimetry scan abi xray to confirm the pelvic. To cut the long story short, a date was fix and My Crown was brought out with him crying, pooping and weeing on me in the theater by 8.30am.

I was a bit conscious around after 9 asking different questions. Is my baby perfect, is all his body perfect, hope no issue. And I was told that He was perfect and no issue. Guess what, he came with plenty hair but is Prenatal that I use sha.

My husband has started telling people that I have given birth. In my mind, Oga wait na, let me be strong first na. The next day I started moving around and climbing staircase because I heard that the earlier you walk around the faster you heal. But my people in that night I was in pain ooo. Then I was told that I would have walk only that even if my body tell me that I am strong, I should do everything in moderation. I was given injection of pain killer abi sleeping injection. All I know is that I slept off.

We were discharge after 3 days. Vigilante is real and he can suck for Africa. But my only problem is that he sleep off and don't belch after sucking. This make him bring the milk from mouth or noise.

To the remaining preggie Mama, you shall all deliver safely with mother and child alive.
To my TTC mama, never give up hope because God is still in the business of blessing all womb with children. You shall all conceive and carry your joy in Jesus name. I know, the question is always when will that time come. Hang it there mama Soon.

Expectantmom cappo, BS submited.

shiller:

Google said it also start in second trimester in some women but more intense in 3rd trimester..
You can head to hospital to see a Doctor too

Amen, thank you ma.
The Dr. said that it's dangerous to touch the cervix now because it's already open and leaking to avoid infection.

Omakraid:

Congratulations again teamie...
Even if LO sleeps during feeding, make sure you tilt him to a sitting like position and run his back till he burps... Abeg how you dey manage your nipple cos mine is on fire

Expectantmom:

Congratulations mama! May your little one continue to be a source of blessing and joy to the family. Thanks for the BS

voucher:


Congratulations mama, May God’s name be praised.. please after feeding him, you will have to rub his back till he belches, that’s how it’s done even if he sleeps off while breastfeeding, you have to do it before you lay him down..

imsettled2:

Thanks mama, I will try to wait till he burps but is not easy sha. For the nipple, I had sore in my first week but it was because my nipple was not pointed out. But now, I feel small pain whenever he put his mouth but immediately he start sucking the pain disappear. Also I feel pain if I am forcing my breast from his mouth and he still want to suck.
How is the pain like? Is it when he is sucking or what mama?
