My fellow pushing mamas Una doh! I welcome the new mamas as well. I read daily the comments here to console and encourage myself.

I'm presently 35 weeks, twin pregnancy and I can't describe sef how I feel. I wish they come out today but I also wish I can stay till 37 weeks. Mtcheeew.

Abeg, which is less stressful to use: disposable diaper or the cloth diaper and how do one wash the cloth diaper? Won't it increase the possibility of the baby developing rash? Abeg make Una answer, encourage me o!

The whole idea behind the cloth diaper is to save you money,I use them as weekend or overnight solution.I bought disposable liners with them that will ease the disposal of poop in the closet in case it happens while using them,washing them is not stressful either,i use a washing machine.I have twins and its a huge saving for me and have not had nappy rash using them.

Hello everyone in the house. Am a first time Mum to be I should be in my 10th week. I must confess it's not been easy at all I don't only have morning sickness but all day sickness, I vomit at every slightest opportunity, I can't even sleep properly due to serious stomach pains, to eat is a problem. Am really not understanding my nature, is it as bad as this or my nature is something else?

@proudmom thank you very much. That means am joining team Sept then.

@haemi nice, am in egbeda axis also. Am opting for island maternity hospital cos I heard they are good. But don't know if they do epidurals.
I had a very very very very very painful first labor and still had to go for cs, i can not even begin to stress the horror, ontop all I lost the baby cos of prolong labour. So for the love of Jesus can someone pls talk about epidural and where around its done and the possible cost. Any contribution is very appreciated.

Check Crystal specialist hospital @ Akowonjo Road. Since its a specialist hospital, they should do it. It's quite expensive. Ante natal card is. 20k

@beedam a big congrats to u. May God giv u riches to use n take care of the new baby!
Pls don't sit on any hard stool. Do not sit in hot water! Gosh! Africans believe d more d pain, d faster it heals.

Plenty salt in warm water is wat u shld sit in. D salt disinfects n dries d area.
Hot water can disolve d stitches depending on d type used, some pple use hot water n ended up suya-rizing n barbeque d vijay...and d vijay wil frown n change shape. cheesy can cause poor wound healing by distorting d proteins in d flesh in dat area
*all dese depends on body system n how hot d water is * high dose vitamin C is gud for u too for fast n gud wond healing. Giv a sloppy kiss to ur baby frm me *wink wink*

@mytestimony kpele for d joint aches. Hope u are on calcium n vit C tabs? Be gentle n don't make sharp movts. To boost ur blood plenty green veggies n fersolate tabs 1 thrice daily.

@my testimony, for boosting of blood you can also try out unripe plantain. U can boil it and eat it with some vegetables, hope it helps!

All, I went for antenatal yesterday & Dr was telling me that in addition to the pregnacare I'm taking I should also add folic acid,the reason being that pregnacare contains just a little amount of folic acid. I'm I missing out on something embarassed

Tnx Holaryhemie, so grateful. Does the washing machine wash it very well? I mean the poo. If that's the case, I think I will buy some.

@Kathy22,
You are not alone, **hug**. You and I have the same kind of system,but the good news is that within the next 2-3wks you'll feel a lot better,you may not feel 100% like you would usually feel ..you might also be lucky and be like the few that don't experience any other discomfort throughout but it will get better.
What you are going through is perfectly normal, you might also be carrying twins.

@mytesti,
No vex,I missed your earlier post,as I always claim belle get many relatives wey dey visit unannounced and they are mostly unwelcomed and intrusive.
Pregnancy at the later stages causes a slight variation in weight and its distribution, the body also releases hormones to relax the joints in readiness.. Take gentle walks and be calm, all go soon end.

@cutie,
You fit wack and u dey complain?? cheesy.. I want to be like you @ 30wks cos na me & gestid dey do friend @ dat time, on a serious note, it may be the quantity is the problem, the baby has taken some of the space the intenstines usually are and it slows digestion a lot... Eat little by little @ intervals.

@goose,
Be grateful for good muscle tone,we that show early are "blessed" with lax abdominal muscles that allows the uterus to push out early on, nothing do you if the scan no get any complaint.

Sayoberry, I don't find the stares funny again, they stare constantly at my belle and it's just so annoying join to the fact say my whole body dey pepper me.
Moving around is by God's grace o, but I have found out that exercising (walking) relieves/stops the pain, but it takes a lot of effort.

How far have u gone? I'm 35 weeks and 4 days. I don't plan to exceed 37 weeks o. I think I will opt for induction if they don't come out.
I'm 34+4 u re one week ahead. I also don't plan to go beyond 37 weeks... I'll opt for induction. Meanwhile I can't walk 10 feet now o. I sit everywhere
