My Birth Story. Please sit back and enjoy. I got married Dec 2019. I had an infection so we couldn't baby dance for the first few months. I had to use both herbal meds and antibiotics. I was almost getting resistant to Strong antibiotics. My mil had to stay with us. It wasn't easy hiding from her. Later on, with God on our side, I was healed and we bd first month nothing second month it was a bfp. After some weeks , I almost had a miscarriage but God was merciful. First trimester... I vomited due to not eating early (I was really picky and hated eating a particular food twice) I had headaches ,I was weak, hated cooking. Second trimester... Active, ate well. Had heart burn, navel pain. It was fair enough for me. Third trimester...Back aches, pelvic pain, heart burn, navel pain. D DAY Labor started Sunday 24th, prior to that, mucus plug was out. I noticed back and menstrual cramps even as I slept but I thought it was the usual abdominal pains that come when I haven't urinated in a while so I decided to go use the rest room. Lo and behold I cleaned up and saw the "bloody show". I was excited and kind of wasn't because we had not moved yet as we wished. Later I decided to do some clean up and arranging of the house before the real pains start .I also remembered that I was yet to take a pic with my bump so with the mild pains I asked Dh to help. He later asked if he could go to church and I consented. He left so I went to sleep, at this time the pains kept coming. Being a ftm , I was concerned as to how fast the labor would progress so I headed to the clinic. Getting there, a VE was done and I was 2cm dilated( noone told me VE was very painful especially). The nurse asked me to choose between going home and staying till it progresses. I chose to go home so as to go eat, rest, sleep, gather strength and most importantly poo so I don't have to poo during delivery. While the doctor was writing notes on my file, she complained that my bp was too high being 153...can't remember the pulse. She checked my antenantal bp records and saw that it's being high all along. She asked me to do urinalysis test and there was no protein. She blamed the nurses and doctors who attended to me so far for the oversight. She prescribed medication and asked me to check my bp again. I did as she instructed but no much improvement. So I had to reuse same meds. After the meds , I called dh and we went home home together. Getting home, I ate and slept....the pain wasn't increasing so I knew it meant labor isn't progressing. I asked Dh to get me pineapple, Castor oil and orange. I ate the pineapple then he suggested we both go to the pharmacy to check my bp again and get the Castor oil. My bp had gone to 123. He asked if I was to use get medication (for reduction of bp)to be used in the evening, I said no. When we got home I took 2 tablespoons of Castor oil and 2 oranges(mixed them together ), not long after the bloody show increased and I was in pains. It was getting late and I wanted to manage till morning then go to the hospital. Ard 12-1am Dh kept asking if we should start going to the hospital. I said no. Later I was forced to say Yes because I kept seeing blood and as a ftm I didn't know if it was normal. Dh called his bro to help us to the hospital, we left for the hospital. Pain was getting more, my fear was getting there and being told It hadn't progressed. I got there. A VE was done, I was 3cm. Since morning...I was disappointed and scared because if pains at 3cm could be that much then what next. 5 Likes |

Part B I was admitted and given a bed then the main contraction started. In my mind I was like how do people give birth to many children. I told Dh to stay with me and at every contraction I held him so tight.. then I rested when it subsided. It was midnight, I was sleepy yet in pains. I didn't defecate as I wished before leaving home so I kept feeling the urge yet nothing was coming. I felt like vomiting. I went to the rest room and vomited with Dh helping me clean up. I could hardly stand. I laid on the bed again trying to breathe with my mouth. It was helping then it stopped helping, I couldn't do it anymore. I was holding my back and making noise. Dh kept saying plenty of sorry. I wish I could opt for CS. I told him I couldn't do it anymore, he said you can. Later i was peeing on myself at every contraction. Thank God for Nightingale, those nurses would have shouted a lot. At this point I told Dh to get the nurse because I feel a strong urge to poo and push. Before we knew it ,next contraction came and I felt hot water bursted. I thought I defecated on myself but something told me my water broke. I asked Dh to get the nurse , she asked me to come and meet her for a VE , I explained the water aspect and that it was green. She suspected meconium. VE was done. Cervix was 7cm dilated. She said she will pass the hot drip. She checked my bp. It had risen to 160. She called doc and the doc came. She said she didn't ask me to go home when I did and that all efforts to bring the bp down since noon is useless. I apologized and she asked that I was given another medication to reduce the bp before delivery. They put some meds under my tongue and the urge kept coming strong. When each contractions come, I would tell myself "don't push yet". After an hr, the nurse told me I was tight so she will give me a cut to help me plus we don't know what state baby is in. After pushing twice, she said she could see baby's head. The next contraction came and I pushed, I wanted to stop, she said no that baby was almost out that I should push well and so I did and before I knew baby was out and put on my chest. She was crying and when I spoke to her rubbing her back, she stopped. Nurse said it's good she cried so we know she is totally fine. We were cleaned up, I was stitched and transferred to the ward. I am totally grateful to God for the journey, for seeing me through and for showing up for me at the times I called him. I pray that he blesses everyone who desires to carry their own baby this year.

It's a thing of great joy to officially join this page. I have been dreaming of when I'll be qualified to join. Currently about 6 weeks and I return all glory to God. The only thing giving me concern right now, is that I can feel the outline of my womb when lying down on my back. I feel the firm bulge(about the size of a small orange)when I touch it, but when standing I dont feel anything. This makes it impossible for me to sleep on my back or stomach because its uncomfortable. I'm a FTM, does anyone else have this experience? I'm just scared and different things have been going through my mind. I use to think there should be no bulge till about 2nd trimester. 14 Likes |

Hello mamas my last fbc my pcv was 36% is that good ? Or what can I use to boost it |
Re: Pregnancy Are You Pregnant Or Going Through A High Risk Pregnancy,,lets Talk by enque(f): 5:15am On Feb 05, 2021 |
Esetim: Dear FTM, Enjoy every step of this journey ![]() Some bumps come early for some ppl while some dont see a visible bump till 2nd trimester. I'm a 2nd TM and my bump at 14weeks is way bigger than it was with my first pregnancy. Bottomline is every pregnancy differs same way bodies differ. As long as ur Dr checks u out and says there is nothing to worry about, then u r good. U can start practicing how to sleep on ur side as that might be the only comfortable sleeping position as u progress. Like I said earlier, relax n enjoy cos its gonna be a sweet ride ![]() ![]() 3 Likes 1 Share |

Missfree: The thing is, some people can take pineapple in pregnancy and nothing will happen and others try it and the story is not funny. Pregnancy craving sometimes does not end after you eat what you crave for once, you might want to keep having it until you pass that stage. You could have one slice of pineapple and nothing will happen but would your craving end after 1 pineapple? Try to opt for other fruits. Other sabi mamas might have a different opinion though 2 Likes 1 Share |
