Pls zaynie,why cleaning the nips with cotton wool n oliver oil in the final week. Is it cos of the itching ONLY ?

The nips are usually cracky and dirty, so we clean as from 36 weeks on to remove any clogs and cracked skin that might dirty up the breastmilk.
36 weeks cos it might trigger contraction, so at least by the 36th week you're good to go and in case your baby has plans to come early your tips would be ready.

curvilicious:


When the nurse said it during anc i was just looking at her nd in my heart i was saying : you try well well' all these nurses that malfunction sometimes

True.
I never listened to the nurse though
I was a terror the second time around so tey matron went to hide for me.

Nawa since morning no bump pics. Anyways this is my Throwback #FaithBump

Good day mamas
Rant time

I cried yesterday in church ehn because of contractions. I woke in the morning very energized, prepared for church, ate,did fine makeup and snapped plenty pishures not knowing I was going to ruin the makeup with tears. After normal Sunday school my body was doing me somehow but I still stayed till praise time, when I was dancing if you see the sharp pain I felt ehn chai!!!!..
I called our pastor's wife outside and she took me to the car to rest, na then the contraction even come start wella . I started crying oh forgetting makeup and fine girl oh, she had to call our church doctor out of the service for him to check me.
Yesterday was really somehow for me

The Lord is your strength dear, I guess you need to take it easy on yourself...don't worry,it will end in praise IJN!!

Onegai:


Some people don't take to epidurals too well. I don't. And a few other women don't. Some times, epidurals do slow down labour (I could barely push and I tore from the pressure of baby coming out and being unable to push well, but it wasn't a bad tear). If you must take an epidural, take it on time, 4cm. So you have enough time to get used to it.

If you must go without epidural, be as active as possible. I mean, active. Not your regular day schedule but active. And once labour starts, from active to transitional stage, be active: wall squats give more support than regular squats (time it during contractions), labour is the time to dance and dance well (dance like a masquerade), twerk if you need to break your water (because that hurts less than Pitocin), if you get tired during labour, ask for pain relieving IV drip (before 6cm). Use that time to rest and get your strength up. Once you get to 8cm, get on your knees. Gravity will push baby into birth canal faster. Get a doula (any person who can ginger you, preferably someone who has delivered or someone used to Sports). It could be a sister, an aunt or even a brother. Leave the prayer warriors outside your labour room (because sometimes, labour is a mental game and you will eventually feel fear and you need a coach). Know what to expect (you'll be in pain and want to run away, you will get thirsty so have ice blocks to suck on). Remember, labour could be 3 hours or 18 hours. That's upto you and God, you can't control it.

Whatever you do, be firm but flexible. If you decide to take an epidural, nothing wrong with it.

Very explanatory,dats why I like this thread...well done mama!!

lol I'm actually listening to it, that's the only way I can read these days. I downloaded it on Audible.com. If you want to download audible, register with an ATM with no money in it. They would give u a free credit and u can download the book for free. It's a complicated process but I'm used to it plus I can find the best books on audible.

Hehehe, I read them first. It's one reason why I've never been able to get into the series

Beautiful bumps teamies, since I updated my opera mini I have not been able to upload pictures. Can't seem to understand the app again
#teamoctoberforsupernaturalbirth

zaynie:



Following the nurse's instructions.
Pushing at the right time helps to minimize tears.
Perineal massage and squats.
Epidural.
Size of baby.
Luck.... . Some do none and have a tearless delivery. Some do all and have massive tears plus episiotomy sef.

But not to worry, even if you have tears and stitched good, it'll take about a week to heal properly with regular sitzbath and pain relieving drugs.

Thanks ma

Sorry teamie. Pls what's this squatting exercise u do? Does it aid birthing in anyway maybe i can try it too. I hope i don't break my back in the process.

you bend to your kneel and standup slowly its won't break your back just make sure its slowly and when you are tired you stop.its help to open your cervix for birth.

ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!!!!




Someone just gifted Tushmom a 10k gift voucher to pick whatever she wants from my store.
September 11 is quite dear to her heart. It's in remembrance of her close friend's child who was lost to cancer at a young age.
Coincidentally, this lady also has a son born on September 12th and has promised same gift to any mama that downloads today (first to announce o).
The mama is one of us but would love to remain anonymous so Inspector Gadgets please keep the lid on .


We pray that the one who is now an angel continues to rest in peace and the one with us lives a long and healthy life.
Amin.
