BS

It'll surely end in praise was/is my motto, dunno if I should use motto thoo in this pregnancy. But I believe everything happens for a reason.
After the birth of my son in 2018, which was dramatic and very very very painful, labored from 11am-11:52pm through induction that he came with a perinal tear. I went for fp at 6wks ppt which lasted for 3m. Removed it cos it messed up my hormones. I was on pills and I couldn't do billings cos my period wasn't steady.
Nov 2019, when I went for my sister trad, everybody was telling me how slim I was etc, my friend jokingly oo according to her told me that my tummy is bulging out unlike me. Na only that statement enter me. While bathing, I touched the lower part of my tummy close to my uterine wall, it was hard. Ahhh! I told myself, this is it. On my way back to Lag from the East, I purposely sat at the back, na for that tyre side. All the potholes and gbim gbim na for my waist e land. When I got home, I tested using HPT, positive. Double thick lines.

I cried, I really cried. Premium tears before I accepted my fate.
Pregnancy journey was dramatic, emotional, with challenges but it ended in praise. Thanks to friends turn family that were always there for me. I'm greatly grateful. Eshe
Fast-forward to 32wks, I was tired of the back and hip pains, I never slept on my left side due to left renal cyst(hopefully I'll go for scan and have it removed) and the pains I can't explain, was dark and getting round. Chasing after 2 hyperactive children although one is a bit calmer.

35wks I started exercising (trekking, kegel etc), I was scared of induction or VE, I was confessing positively and reading up how/what to do to fall into labor without induction.
Last week Thursday, I purged throughout the night(watery poo) with mild contractions, I knew it was a sign but the fear of being induced and somebody looking for lost treasure in my jaijaina kept me back at home. I started exercising, introduced zobo drink and pineapple to help since I was already 37wks. On Wed, 15 July, started having mild contractions in the morning, very manageable but I told myself I won't allow this contraction to waste. I had a hot tea, poured hot water mixed with lil cold almost a lukewarm water inside a bath bowl, sat inside it until it became almost cold. Had warm water bathe and left for the market.
Just 3k ogbono soup stuff I can buy from the street, mba I left my house and trekked to iyanaiba market(the ecobank side) bought everything I needed to buy. Trekked from there to Alaba international(tokunbo side) to buy an electric cake mixer. When I was through, I trekked back home from there(aswear people that knows where I stay will understand). When I got back home, the contraction was still manageable, I drank my remaining 2 ragolis 75cl zobo, cooked ogbono soup and beans, ate small indomie noodle and a cup of 2 satchel � plain lipton. Walked around the compound with my children and danced too. While replying bimberry1307, I was laying on my left side, the contraction was still manageable.
Called my aunt and told her, she told me to still walk around and come let's go to the hospital when is serious. I shared dinner for everybody at home, gave my girl instructions since hubz wasn't around and left for another round of trekking around 7pm. When the contraction hit, I was still walking with my mouth open, I trekked to the church, visited the Blessed Sacrament. On my way home, the contraction wasn't friendly again, ahhh! was murmuring JESUS have mercy, Mother MARY help me till I got to my aunt house. Her husband started the car immediately cos I was already shouting I want to poo-poo, baby is coming and the distance from my side to my hospital is far, very far coupled with the tankers on the road and the portholes. I kept shouting I want to poopoo oo and had my legs together with my jaijaina tighten, finally we got to the hospital around 9, my aunt was shouting come and carry her up oo. The nurse that came out told me to try and climb the stairs. I told her if I dare open my legs, baby will slip out and wee wee is coming. Doctor carried me up straight to the labor ward, I parted my legs even before he said anything and I kept chanting Jesus I depend on you, for I have no power of my own.

Doc checked and saw the water bulging out, immediately he broke the water, baby's head slipped out. He told me to stop pushing that baby has cord around his neck, I told him that I'm not pushing that baby is slipping out on his own. He told me to try and control it so he can cut off the cord around the neck that I'm his mother. I don't know how I did it but I did it, baby part slipped off immediately he cut the cord just on his own without me pushing. Dunno how it happened, even doc asked me how many days have I been laboring. Baby was given 3taps on his butt and he gave out the loudest cry ever. Placenta was delivered, I was cleaned up and injected to stop bleeding. They took me to the bathroom where they bathe me with semi hot water before they took me to the room.

We are still having latching problem but I'm pumping and administering Nan 1.

Thanks for all the love here, forever grateful. Safe delivery to everyone here and it'll surely end in praise. ♥ ♥

Moving from bodija to challenge is like moving from alaakia to Ikire or trekking from mowe to berger.

Pls ma'am be careful abeg of u... God will help us all.

She should go to the hospital

A pregnant woman does not selfmedicate because what I take can be accepted by my own body and rejected by the other

But to be on the safer side she can take paracetamol and vitamin c
