Goodevning mummies. Didnt really get a reply on my question about slight increase in FSH. but I pick no offence. I'm sure so many things on our minds

Mehn! my problems are so compounded that if not for the grace of God, I might not be living till today. So many evil thoughts on my mind. Sometimes I just get afraid of the troubles my pple will go through if I'm no more and then I move on. I remb how my family was shattered wen we lost my immediate elder sister in a ghastly motor accident who just graduated as the best student but didn't live to see or hold her result. My her soul rest in peace. though few years now, but memory still fresh. She died in this month of May 29.

Today AF came for an unwelcomed visit. Was just somewhere where I went to cover up for a Secretary to get small money (desperately searching for a job) and AF started. I even got slightly stained if not for the shade of clothe bc I didn't notice it. Got home angrily, hubby always insensitive as usual, told me we will be going early to the village to participate in one community prayers. I have told him I don't like being exposed to pple not to talk about villagers wen we are TTC. But he likes joining parents always to the village. If he doesn't go, they will drag him. My whole life is just full of regrets. Pple sheild their wives in cases like this but he brings me out every time. I'm not even from his village. From two different far tribes.

dearie its easy by d grace of God,all we nid is dat faith dat is nt dispised.free urself n free ur mind.I understand hw u feel.alwayz giv it 2 God in prayers

Babemama:
Hello Mamas, I'm new here but ttc tey tey .. Will just say for more than 5 years as I hate to admit it.

Hello Dear Sisters.
Pls i need your advise.
My doctor gave me Primolut to induce my period, when Af came, he gave me clomid. Few days ago, i was scheduled for a tvs on CD13 which never happened bc there was no fuel in my town,Lol!
He called me for the scan the following day and confirmed i had a ruptured follicle, which means i ovulated probably at night and then advised i BD with DH.
But he gave me another dose of Primolut to start on CD19 and stressed it wont affect pregnancy if established.
What do you guys think? Will it have any effect on pregnancy if established?
Cc:Fvine,iomoge,sugar, all sabi mama's, i need your take on this.

****modify*****

happy weekend to y'all

Fvine:


I answered you. Check few posts up of this your post. Sorry on the unwelcome and unexpected AF and your Hubby's attitude too. Maybe you can have a heart to heart talk with him on a very good day when the mood is right and explain how you feel. Just pray about it. God bless.

Thanks Dear Fvine.
look at how positive you are to me. Amen to all ur prayers. the less than one million count was 100 per cent immotile. 0 active, 0 motility. 0 morphology. But God should have mercy and give me a surprise package

joyousmother2016:
In lieu of the advice given to me here by some "joyous mother of children", i did like to add my voice to what I've learnt the previous week to the issue of fibroids and ttc. Fibroids though non-cancerous and rarely cancerous can hinder conception. I was told by 2 different gynaecologists that i have intramural fibroids which as it is believed doesn't hinder conception. They adviced i ignore it and keep trying for a child.
4 months after trying i decided to see a third gynaecologist. He advised i undergo surgery. Last month, i took the bold step and went for it.
well, scan showed 2 big fibroids with one calcified, but when i was opened, the gynae discovered 12 fibroids, and also the weight hinders swimmers from swimming into the tubes.
Surgery maybe fearful but if you are ttc for more than 6 months and you are told you have fibroids, pls consider going for surgery. My cousin was told she had fibroids (she never confided in any of us) of recent and she started taking herbs, just last week she came visiting and i saw her swollen feet and tummy. I advised her to go for test cos of the swollen feet and tummy. She went for test yesterday and was discovered the herbs affected her kidney. Some herbs may actually dissolved fibroids while some will give you lasting sorrows. Pls lets increase our chances of conception by doing what we can and leaving the rest to God. Surgery maybe expensive in private hospitals but its cheaper in government hospitals. I paid 60k for mine in a public hospital and i have no regret going through it. Myomectomy compare to taking herbs may even be cheaper and also faster in the journey to conceive. You are free to add your voice to this suggestion.

Yes ma, I totally agree with u. l also had fibroid went for myomectomy and to d glory of God I conceive for the first time in my life after 3 momth. I am a strong advocate of surgery if one is diagnosed if fibroid. Pls let's beware of herbs abeg I have never taken it in my whole llife and pple dt I know dt took it are still trying.

May the Almighty Lord the God of everyone grant you happiness and peace throughout your time with your Prince charming. Wishing you all the best mama.

I agree with the point that mama Babermama's manifestation is closure. You know whenever you're getting closer to your destination that's when you feel like giving up on your dreams! So keep on going and God will help you make it. Amen.

Abeg my e-sisters, help my friend torchlight dix issue.
I don't have much experience with clomid so I need u ladies help. my friend started clomid on cycle day 11 instead of cycle day 5. actually I told her to use it cuz it worked for me so she was not on prescription. she took 100mg frm cd11 to cd15. according to her she ovulated on the 18th and her expected period normally without clomid was on the 21st of dix month. being that she ovulated late, I don't knw if clomid cld elongate her date cuz she didn't take it according to the normal cycle day. on the 24th, she called that her period has started, the on Monday d 25th, it ended wit brownish discharge. so dix discharge counting from her induced clomid cycle, she was 6dpo when the bleeding happened but following her normal cycle she is 3days late. All her hpt has been negative bcuz she tested on the 2nd which could have bin her clomid cycle day of af.
I advised her to wait atlst a week to retest but I wanted to ask any who has used clomid, did you have a weird one day period? was her cycle changed truly because her in take of clomid did not rhyme with the normal one cuz she started cd11? is their any dangerous thing that could be wrong with her? is she pregnant but it was early to test?

Here goes d testimony I read.
Touching story of how late Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa's daughter inlaw
battled infertility
My husband, F.E.Benson Idahosa II, and I met in Benin City, Nigeria when I was 13 years old; our fathers
(Benson Idahosa and Gary Whetstone) were friends. I’ve referred to my love for Feb as “love at first sight”
because very soon after we met, the sparks of love began to flicker between us.
After many years, my dream came true when I was 28 years old; Feb made me his wife! I was the happiest
woman on earth and smiled ear to ear all through our courtship and wedding day. I was so excited to be
his wife! The next thing I couldn’t wait for was to be the mother of his children; I wanted so badly to carry
his baby.
During the first year of our marriage, pregnancy didn’t happen like I expected. Subsequently, I convinced
my husband to go with me for a fertility check-up. He thought it was silly because he was so sure that
we’d have our kids. Eventually, just to pacify me, we went for the check-up.
To our surprise, they did all the testing and came back to us with tormenting news. They told us that both
he and I had very serious fertility issues and that we would never be able to have a child without In-Vitro
Fertilization (IVF). The Doctor looked at us both in our eyes and told us that we are 99.9% infertile.
My world felt like it crashed down on me. It was a journey I never expected to undergo. My husband on the
other hand had steadfast faith and kept reassuring me, saying, “We will have our children! God promised it,
He will do it!”
Following the logical path of thinking, we decided to embark on the journey of IVF. The next year, we
gathered our money together from some investments we made before marriage and went for our first
treatment. After $25,000, injections, surgery and so many stories that ought not to be told, we did our
first embryo transfer. 2 weeks later, so full of hope, we went back to see if we were pregnant and my world
crashed again; it didn’t work!
We repeated this process several times over the next few years, each time ending in disappointment.
The more treatments I did, the puffier my tummy began to look. Well-meaning friends and family would
see me and think that finally I was expectant! They would rub my tummy and give me hugs of
congratulations… all the while, but I knew my uterus was empty. Empty! And trust me, I sooo longed for a
baby.
After four failed IVF attempts, my husband and I decided to find another hospital which had a statistical
track record of better outcomes. We went to New York Presbyterian Hospital, Cornell University. This time,
IT WORKED!!!!!
I was finally pregnant! Hallelujah!!!!!!
I carried that pregnancy like someone carrying an egg with a spoon; very delicately… although we were
based in Nigeria, I refused to travel back during that pregnancy. I followed every instruction and went for
every doctor visit. I was ready to be a healthy mom with a healthy baby.
On July 3, 2007 after a long labour and eventual CS, I gave birth to the most handsome baby boy. He had
a full head of hair and to this day, I can remember that feeling when they brought him to me and we
looked at each other, eye to eye. We quickly announced it to our family and to anyone and everyone.
Across the globe there were celebrations and outbursts of Thanksgiving! He was the first grandson born to
the late Archbishop Benson Idahosa!!!
The doctors asked to monitor him overnight in the NICU because he was born via CS. We were so excited
to have him that we didn’t give it a second thought. Early the next morning, the head nurse came to my
hospital room and asked us to rush to see him. She told us that he was having trouble breathing and
sustaining a blood pressure.
What happened next, one could never have prepared for.
We watched our miracle baby die.
Benson Idahosa III, lived for only 12 short hours.
The first time I held my miracle baby in my arms was when he was dead.
Throughout the grieving process, we discovered that there was a grace upon our lives that man can never
give. We cried desperately; deep tears that I never knew I was capable of crying. Simultaneously a faith
unlike anything that I ever experienced began to billow in our spirits. As dark as that time was, our resolve
had never been stronger. We knew that we knew that we knew that we would have our children!
We buried our long-awaited son on July 9th.
During the burial service, Bishop David Huskins prophesied over us saying, “Within a year from today, God
is going to give your family a cause to rejoice.” At the time, I was reluctant to receive this prophecy,
knowing our arduous journey of infertility treatments.
We returned to Nigeria with empty arms but hearts full of hope and prophetic promises.
The doctors in New York told us that we couldn’t attempt another IVF for a year, so, we began to fit back
into our life routine. We also began to embark on a project that the Lord had birthed in our spirits during
the height of our pain; to open a hospital for women and children in Nigeria. We were awakened to the fact
that if this could happen to us in America (where we had everything humanly available to attend to our
baby), how much more is it happening in Nigeria where many medical facilities available are sub-standard,
to say the least. The dream for Big Ben’s Children’s Hospital (BBCH) was birthed
By November of 2007, I still had not gotten a period since the delivery of my son in July. Figuring it would
eventually come, I didn’t give it much thought, however, one morning, on a whim, I decided to do a check.
I had drawers full of home pregnancy tests and I just decided to take one. To my surprise, it read
POSITIVE!!!!
I was pregnant again, and this time, completely NATURALLY!!!
God had worked a miracle in our lives! We travelled back to America for good medical care.
The morning of July 9, 2008 (exactly one year after the burial of our first son and the prophecy) I gave
birth to a healthy, handsome baby boy!!! To God be the Glory!
Feb Jr. is our son’s name and is alive and doing very well. He is in elementary school and excels in
everything!
God answered our prayers and kept His promise toward our home!
When Feb Jr. was 2, I started being concerned as to why I wasn’t getting pregnant again. We wanted a
sibling for our son. We went back to the doctors for testing and they told us that we were worse off than
before. While they acknowledged the miraculous nature of Feb Jr.’s conception, they told us, “Nobody wins
the lottery twice.” I was convinced to try another IVF, which I did. Sadly, it failed, just like all of the others
before it.
I returned to Nigeria and within two months, I got pregnant naturally! Naturally, I say, naturally!
On November 14, 2011, we gave birth to yet another son, Nathaniel Benson Idahosa.
“Nate” is going into kindergarten this year and is an exceptional joy to have in our home.
While still breastfeeding Nate, birth control was the furthest thing from my mind. I assumed that I had
natural birth control, only to discover that I was PREGNANT
GAIN! Another natural conception to the Glory of God!
Judah Benson Idahosa was born on January 2, 2013 and is now a thriving toddler with the energy of 100
men!
God has given us our heart’s desire. We are raising three boys, all naturally conceived. Our marriage and
love for each other has been strengthened through the journey of infertility and infant loss.
God is faithful to His Word! He will always do as He has promised in our lives. He never fails His children.
Though it may seem like it’s getting worse and it may feel impossible, keep your eyes on Him with
expectation. He is the giver of life and never fails.
My prayer for you is that you will follow the path that God has for you and that your prayers will be
answered as God has planned, in Jesus name!
Rev. Laurie Idahosa is the Senior Pastor of CGM, Church Unusual in Benin City.
