HELLO TO YOU ALL,

sugah:

First of all, please stop shouting.
I think I remember you asking about lifting birth stories but maybe you should have gone a step further by asking the individuals that posted the stories before lifting them. Since it was just one person that answered when you asked, there's a possibility that its not everyone that would comfortable with it.
So if you don't mind, ask each person that shares a story before lifting it.

AlphaHandMaiden:



I think its just a term , dont get too hung up on it.
In my opinion EBF, mix feeding or exclusively formular feeding really only matters when they are weighing the baby, as you can overfeed a formular fed baby but not a baby on breast milk only. If there is a larger than expected weight gain, you may be asked to reduce formular, but with Breastfeeding there is no such concern.

BritneyStacy:
Hey mama's, I really need honest answers based on first hand experience. What is induced Labour like? Compare it with natural labour if you have had both please.....
How easy were you able to manage the pain ?

soonest:

My 2nd was by induction and it was very smooth and successful.. like all medical interventions, it can go south but it's not as scary as we make it. Before induction some examinations are carried out like cervix exam, reactive CTG etc to know if you are a candidate for it. For d resp distress, it can also happen in spontaneous labour but there's a slight increase of risk in induction but if labour is progressing normally it wouldn't happen. Also with careful titration of oxytocin it can be avoided. For me, advantages of induction are
1. Contraction is more intense and as such faster labour all things being equal.
2. Constant monitoring on d part of d medical personnel and can dictate when something is amiss
3. Reduced risk of postparum haemorrhage
The disadvantages:
1. They burst membrane first so if it doesn't progress wel, dats emergency CS for u
2. Labour can be so so very intense
3.there could be increased risk of distress for d baby is it becomes prolonged
4. Increased risk of uterine rupture if not well titrated.
NB: induction is more favourable to 2nd time mums than FTM.
Sorry for d long post.

Emerald22 hw u dey o..sori i no ask afta u since

Liftedhands:
Primark good you owned up.

Like sugah said ask the individual whose story you want to publish if they are OK with it! That way there won't be any hard feelings.

u need to c how my hubby dey para, he feels so disgusted, was asking if she want to takeover d mother's responsibility while she is still alive.
I told him just to know his opinion.

babylove01:


In my opinion it is a very stupid thing to do and you are not over reacting please don't even wait for your husband to talk to her talk to her yourself. Even if u didn't express or drop formula for the baby there's always water. My one cent though

faithisallihave:

I even did. Cereal and formular.

ALL STORIES FROM THIS PAGE HAS BEEN DELETED.

Then another one. Spread your legs apart while in standing position. Then do the nursery rhyme. .. my head, my shoulder my knees my toes... while touching them. Start slowly then go as fast as possible. You can do 10 per time.

faithisallihave:
Dear mamas, I am pissed off and thoroughly disgusted.
My husband's cousin breastfed my dd while I was in the office. WTF.
Should I tell my husband to talk to her?
Should I just let it go?
Am I over-reacting?
Pls advice me because right now I'm just so pissed off.

mitchyy:
Please mamas, let's be careful who we hand our babies to.
A lady left her 2months old baby with a friend at my mum's shop. She went into the market to buy some stuff. After she left, her baby started crying uncontrollably and the baby is on EBF(exclusive breast feeding).
The friend couldn't endure the baby's cries anymore and guess what she did?

She bought satchet water, opened it and started giving the 2months old baby.

My mum tried to intervene but the friend said she is tired of the cries and the water wont kill the baby.
I dont think the lady values her friend's baby at all. It was so surprising

Hi mommy,pls I beg to differ in what u said abt pure water being better than bottled water. It's really nt d case. I did my IT in a water Bottling Company,there z a specific machine(3-in-1dispensery) dat z used in filling these bottles,it rinses d bottoe,fills it n caps d bottle enclosed in that machine. NOBODY has any contact wit d water dat z entering into d bottle.

As a quality control personnel,I have visited most places where all this pure water stuffs are being made,most of dem just get their regular tap water n even wit a hot iron u can seal d satchet. 

Dats why ppl are advised to go 4 good bottled water n nt all these kweke kweke u c on d street,Naija z messed up as it z,its left 4u to tk charge of ur health.

Sorry 4my long post.‎

Liftedhands:
