My BS, My Testimony(part 4)

Revelation (The end)

I was started on antibiotics of diff types, dressing of the site morning and evening. I was still oozing pus although the antibiotics killed the smell, it wasn't until the third day before the pus stopped pouring and just started dripping out. I stayed on admission again for another 1 week, my babies were even discharged before me and were brought to me in d ward.

God helping us, d pus has dried up, although I'm still on antibiotics, but God saved my life. I still wonder why none of d docs ever suspected sepsis. My malaria result came out and showed negative, which means all that while, I didn't have malaria.

We are home now and doing well.
For mamas that will do CS, pls don't ignore any extra pain you feel, always keep the site dry and clean with spirit regularly, d docs didn't tell me this.

Thanks everyone for the messages, I'm sorry can't mention names individually couldn't read back. I appreciate you all.

Cc Rofemiguwa pls what's d name of the electric breast pump you bought?

November mamas, wish you all safe delivery.
October mamas, go into d delivery room and come out victorious.

I would try to be regular again, won't be easy though with two babies.

Stay blessed

Sorry for all u had to go tru.
Tank God for his mercies
Trust u n babies are doing fine
I got kinyo from mothersbond.ng.

:he says he just wants his son to have a christian name,and i'm being selfish by insisting on my name as the 2nd name. All his other sibling are in intertribal marriages too and have both tribe names as 1st and 2nd names. His mom has never been cool with that,now she wants to have her way through my husband. It might sound irrelevant to some pple,but it's painful to me,very very. I'm beginning to ask myself why I didn't just marry within my fold.

If you can have all 3 names on the BC legally, then please let peace reign. My own case its just 2 names that can be on the BC but luckily for me we had both agreed no English names for Ayomide.
You married your dh because of his attributes, not just his tribe so don't regret please.
And like others have said, your kids can decide to rearrange or change the names when they are grown.

christybabe:





Lol, no be small my dear, people cannot mind their business.
That was how my mate asked me.
Mate: what is the meaning of Bryan
Mate: I gave my baby his name because I was inspired to call him
Me: I was also inspired to call my baby
Mate :ur baby's cot is very unique but my baby's own is bigger.
Mate : There is only one entrance in this ur flat, I prefer the one with 2 entrance like my own (na me build the house)
Your parlour is big but my own is bigger
I prefer to cook okro soup with assorted not goatmeat (can't I change protein in my soup again) e.t.c
She likes competition too much, very soon she will start comparing our son's dressing, schools and even feeding habit.
She even compares our DH sometimes. I just tire...

Pls cut off that friendship...it is hazardous biko

ekeminiabasi:
Hello mamas,pls I need ur advice,esp d mamas who are in intertribal marriages. My husband and I are frm different parts of the country.......all along during our pregnancy,he told me the name he wanted for the baby,i was ok with it. I told him mine too. We agreed on his name as 1st name,mine as 2nd name. Both are native names. Shortly before we put to bed,he told me to pick a nice xtian name that has a good meaning. I did and he loved the name. Now after delivery,all of a sudden,he decided that his own name comes 1st,the christian name comes 2nd and my own name 3rd. I had always wanted my children to have both tribe names so that as they grow in life,evry1 knows they re intertribal products,so I rejected his new idea

Haaaaa....nawaooo....he should consider you Biko....no be you carry baby for 9 months?..Did he help to push or deliver? Didn't you feel the pain alone? Pls reject it well!

ekeminiabasi:
Now this name thing is bringing serious issues btw us. He said i'm a woman and have no say in a child's name cos d child is his. A child I suffered to have after 4yrs of ttc and 3mc's o. His mom has been backing him up too. I asked my mom to talk to him,cos my parents are so dissapointed@him. He told my mom not to interfere in our lives. My dad who never really liked his tribe is now saying he regrets accepting my hubby. For 2onths now,our home has been something else. I am so unhappy,especially as its his mom's wish he's putting before mine. I don't know what to do. My parents have boycotted him,but he's still insistent on this name. I've begged him,threatened him,still he's adamant. What do I do? Do I go and do the birth cert myself and put d names I want and face d consequences? He's planning to do it next week. I can't stand that christian 2nd name. HELP!!!!!

pls work with ur hubby n don't let names bring disharmony in ur home

@ekeminiabasi, pls don't let this issue trouble you. I understand how u feel, esp since it seems ur MIL is trying to control what shd ordinarily be d decision of u and ur DH. But it's not worth the peace of ur home. That shd be ur priority, not d order of d names. Pls don't let anything or anyone cause strife btw u two.
u know u can't win an argument with an African man by insisting on ur own way. just mellow n let him hv his way. later on, ur child will choose d one he wants.
even in other issues, use soft attitude n wisdom to get what u want from ur DH, not aggressiveness. the peace in ur home is more important than the order of nomenclature of ur child.

The devil is looking for space, since the names will be on the birth certificate just ignore it, I know it's disheartening but for peace sake... @ekeminiabasi


Congratulations once again Ebony13, the devil really failed.
Congratulations to Suzy and LadyMessi on your forthcoming weddings, I ask for peace, love, prosperity and the presence of God always in your homes.

Iyabetajos:
@evacroft no vex u hear.wen I was going on bed rest one asked if its cos of ordinary pregnancy am going on bed rest.I no even answer her.When I resumed she said it's so painful that I stressed myself n still didn't cm wit a baby. Na there she see my red eye na.she no dey near me again na.she is also TTC BT won't learn to control her mouth. always having opinion abt peoples affairs.

That was over insensitive and cruel,some peeps are just plain rude and lack manners.

iomoge2:


Check your blood levels n check 4 malaria.
Chevk your bp too.
Just go to the hospital and see a doctor even if u r not ready for antenatal.

My friend only saw one period after losing a baby at birth. And she waa fine.
Truly its not easy but 3months is enough to recover.
Check those i listed, try n eat well (esp fruits n vegis) n take prenatals.
This child has come to stay in Jesus name.

Hugs.

I just got treated for malaria after been admitted for it. Before then, I had low bp of 80/60 but before I left on Saturday, it normalize. So I dont know what else am already registered for ante natal as we are getting to 16wks. Like right now, I feel pains all over. She also adviced I got lucozade boost to help.
Thanks for the advice.

mitchyy:


Just prepare yourself for more as your baby grows. I'm already used to people like that. All i do now is smile.

I've heard all sorts...

-Why are you wearing your baby mittens? Leave his hand alone
-You gave your baby jaundice because of the malaria you were having.
-Your pikin go black well well o. Nor just deceive yourself. (As if i complain to them)
- Your pikin never start to sit down?
- Wear him cap 24/7
- Stop eating fried rice and salad when you are breastfeeding
- Don't waste your time to work on your tummy. Wait till you drop the last baby before you form sisi.
- Stop expressing your milk in bottle. Pour it inside cup and feed him with spoon now
- What happened to wrapper? Why are you using baby carrier?

My ear don full!

Most times they don't actually say it cos dey really care bout u,dey just want u to know they know everything about babies,as per dey have d guide on how to care and nuture a baby. That expressing thingy makes me think, wait! U say what.

Kittana:
Evacroft, doh. Pay her no mind. I bet if you had named your babe one of those typical naija abstract noun names like praise, glory and miracle, she'd have been fine with it.

Speaking of names sef, I think there are more cute boy names than there are girls'. Haven't been able to settle readily, for any my eyes have fallen upon so far. I'll be on the lookout here too. Lemme c if there's anybody's I can steal.

This got me laughing, thanks hon.

iomoge2:
Mamas i have a question
My delivery list says baby dress.

Please which one is baby dress.
Is it because of cord?
Me i got those ones with clip under the legs... onesie or so.
Should i get something else Thats all thats disturbing me now.

My hospital doesn't accept bodysuit and obese and it's coz of the cord. What they accept is dress, top and shorts.

missmalachi:
@evacroft......pls just press control ignore cos some ppl drop their problem on the ground and carry other ppl's on in their head.
I for one has encountered alot of ppl like that especially in this lagos that they will make you feel like this new generation mum can't takia of there babies.

I was taking a walk one eveing n using carrier to carry my baby,a woman called me n says "sisi mi bawo ni" i answered.she was like if your mother carried you like this your legs won't be straight the way it is.i just told her thank you and walk away.
That is how at 4 month mil was talking how my baby cant sit unaided and this is d same baby that started walking at 9 month.

Secondly i don't give room to anyone to form an opinion about how i care for my baby

Thanks sweet,i will learn to press control ignore. I know it will really help me alot.

Besea:
Evacroft sorry e hear, ur ear go soon full. I silenced one like that when she was trying to have an opinion about my child's name, i just said Nathan is not an English name, it's Hebrew and it means God's gift because he's my rainbow baby, she doesn't chat with me so much anymore.




In other news, I went for anc yesterday and I got on a bike for the first time in a long time, hmmmm come and see drama to come down o. Na so my leg hook and I was telling the guy to bend the bike, bend, bend until one leg touched the floor then he held my purse while I used my hands to carry the second leg down. I won't try it again.


Any aba based mamas here or everyone is in Lagos, Abuja or ph?

If ur bp is low, u will be dizzy.
Put a pinch of salt in ur water b4 drinking.

Check ur pcv too. Very important.
Locozade is temporary.
By 16weeks u should be strong.

Please ma don't use this mixture for more than 5days and give a wide interval between each usage. Skineal is a steroid and prolong usage can affect the skin

I'm yoruba and we don't announce pregnancy. ...it's delivery that's expected to be announced.

Mamas in the house pls who knows anything about natural inducement (abi na induction)? I'll be 36 weeks tomorrow and the tin is not funny anymore o. The pain ehn , no be here o; from severe backache to crippling waist pain, and then this pain between my jajaina that makes it seem like the tin wants to drop of, then my anus too.

My mom told me some months back that she induced with castor oil mixed with lime. I reminded her recently and she has been begging me not to try it. I also read of a woman online who induced her 3 pregnancies with casto oil and went into labour within 30 minutes. Who has tried it?

Much as I want my lo to come out I don't want anything that will harm her in the slightest. If castor oil is bad what alternatives can I use. I was born at 36 weeks so I feel its not too early for my lo to come out.

Mamas pls don't jump and pass o.

PS
I don waka tire. I started taking walks of 30 minutes from 34weeks and increased it to an hour. I dance a lot, try to stay active, still no show.

All protocol observe, I need advice ooooo

My best friend that lost his son due to overfeeding, has started again with her second baby. I don't know what wrong with her
, I have tried talking to her but she won't listen.

her late son died at 1year6months. when the baby was alive she does not feed her in my presence any time I come around she will excuse me to go feed her late son in the bedroom, the baby will yell and cry, feeding the baby takes 1hour. one day I told her that I want to see what and how she feed her baby, she laughed and said im lucky that her neighbor is not around that she will feed her outside today. she gave Me wrapper to tie and brought out lots of nakpins, she brought big bowl of food(cerelac,Gerber and sma )immediately I saw it I was dump founded, she scoop the food with cup , use napkin to cover the baby nose while the baby grasp for breath and was pooing and farting and the same time, she fed the baby 1 very very big bowl food, I was scared that baby should not suffocate, after eating the baby doze and snore off.
The baby could not walk, @1yr3months without crawling.
The baby died as he was feeding him and was bleeding from the nose....
I could not tell the husband what I saw cause I don't want to be tagged a homebreaker and I was TTC then, now God blessed her with a son again and she has started again to overfeed the baby.

MY SWEET MOTHERS YOU GUYS SHOULD ADVICE ME, SHOULD I TELL THE HUSBAND...WHAT I SAW NOW I MEAN HOW SHE FEED THE BABY( holding his nose) IM SCARED I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANOTHER BAD NEWS.... PLEAS HELP

Congrats mama feddy27, ebony13, chi zeal and other October Mamas that have birthed their Los. May God continue to grant us safe deliveries.
