Hello Mama's , Can someone give birth at 36weeks and does it affect the baby in anyway?

Shebi dey say 36weeks is a preterm birth not a full term baby,some gave birth at 34weeks base on some complications and baby is fine..

Baby born @36weeks will still be fine nd healthy..

So depending on why baby is coming early..

joiful:



No shout o, I’m expecting twins, so e dey me like film. I just go to see my babies and feel happy.

Awww, that’s beautiful.. Congratulations to you

Some people give birth even earlier than 36 weeks due to some issues and the baby comes out very fine.. But if no issues, I doubt doctors will let you decide to birth at 36 weeks ( like you wanting to go for an elective CS at 36 weeks)

36 weeks is still considered pre-term except it's twins. But baby will be fine nonetheless, maybe small incubator time may be involved as baby's lungs are considered mature at 37weeks.

Good afternoon mamas, having my 2nd child after 7years and the symptoms are crazy, I .......... (tired of going to the bathroom), my appetite is almost non-existent and I am barely 4 weeks gone from my calculation (last period started 29th of may and ended 2nd of June).

Sorry dear.

Doctors mostly prefer 37weeks cos my doctor started his calculation and delivery talks from DAT 37 weeks said baby comes now no issue whatsoever. If its twins and elective CS dey don't mind but if the labour hook the person at 36wks na to born am be DAT teamie

Been having serious contractions Sha.

ChizziCindy:
She will be starting daycare once I resume, please I need advice from experienced Mama's on how to package the breast milk for her till I pick her up from the daycare.

Hello Ma'am,

Firstly, let me say it won't be easy but it will be totally worth it.

What I usually do?

1. Get a good creche, ask around, do your research. You need a clean, good creche with a safe environment and pleasant staff.

2. Is your electricity supply good? Do you have a freezer?

3. Get milk storage bags and a breast pump. Mama Zaynie on Nairaland sells, the manual pump is cheap and effective, the storage bags are cheap and good too. You can also get a cooler bag if you have enough money.

4. Read about breast milk pumping and storage.

5. I pump regularly, even while feeding with one breast, I pump with the second breast.

You can also express with your hands, just make sure your hands are clean and all the cups and bottles and breast pump and it's parts are clean too.

6. The more you express milk, the emptier the breasts get and it will signal the brain to make more milk.

You can pump when you get back from work and every hour until you sleep.

I pump at times during the night when the baby wakes and in the morning before leaving home.

7. Now you have your milk right?

Pour into bottles or milk storage bags in small quantities that can be finished at once or within 2 hours and place in your freezer or fridge (depending on the age, e.g 60mls, 90mls,120mls max) so it doesn't waste if the baby can't finish that bottle

After expressing and without placing it in a fridge or freezer, breast milk can last for up to 4 hours though I prefer 3 hours max. They can give the baby that one first.

8. When you are going out in the morning, pack your diaper bag and pack the milk in the cooler bag, you can place an ice pack in it.

9. I did a through research online and wrote out salient points and taped it to my baby's bag then and also explained to the staff (they were wonderful people I should add)

* Take out a bag or bottle at least 30mins before feeding, don't place it in hot water to warm it.
Just take it out and place it in a bowl of water.

* Don't shake breast milk, the fat will always separate from the milk and you will see it as a thick film over the milk, just swirl it gently and don't shake as shaking denatures the milk.

* Discard unused milk, don't place it back in the fridge or freezer once you have brought it out of the bag or freezer and thawed it.

10. Breastmilk contains fat and can breed bacteria, so make sure you have many bottles so they don't have to reuse bottles because they may not wash them thoroughly.

I usually wash and sterilize all the bottles and milk bags thoroughly myself in the evenings after work and dry them.

Do you understand?
Have any other questions?
Please let me know

Best wishes

Yes you can give birth at 36 weeks...
I gave birth at 34 weeks and the baby is very fine now.. she had to be put in the incubator with oxygen and monitored because her birth weight was very very low and there was difficulty breathing ... It was lower than what it should have been and that was probably due to the complications I had...
Another woman I met at the hospital who also gave birth at 34weeks carried her baby home without issues and in good health... The baby didn't need incubator or extra stay because the weight and every other thing was fine.

Congratulations to everyone that has welcomed their LO

For those who’ve recovered and have testimonies, I pray that the testimonies would forever blossom and remain permanent. For momma’s who have birthed their LOs, big big Congratulations! For those of us yet to, may the journey end in great rejoicing and thanksgiving. For momma’s in waiting, the God who gave Sarah and Hannah laughter would make you laugh in no time! Hold on and hold out, it will end in praise soon!
