TTC

I and my husband have started TTC. who knew that this could be stressful. then all the questions start, if there is a problem, did i take too long in my selfishness enjoying my booboo, before thinking of having a baby, why is it difficult after all the pre natal drugs to prepare my body, now its annoying and frustrating. When I say to myself, I am done, wil allow it come naturally, after my periods, I find myself checking for my fertile window and starting all over. Does one ever get so pissed to give up entirely? My answer will be in the negative.

I downloaded this app called glow, trust me very good app, tells you when you ovulating, the right time when your chances are highest and then it has a community in which you can interact with others.

My dearest Friend Mina did something that gave me a food for thought. She fasted with prayer for 43days trusting God for her own miracle baby, after reading Supernatural child birth by Jackie Meiz. I must recommend this book. They have got it in kindle and hard copy. This is a book that every woman MUST buy, before you conceive your baby OR when you are pregnant. I have read it and it inspired me a great deal, I am always of the firm believe that the best way to raise children is in the eyes of the Lord, when you give  your child to the Lord by tithing, just as my elder sister did with her daughter, and we always see the hand of the Lord upon her, which has made parenting a lot easier and less stressful, as the baby has been given unto the Lord to watch over.

So now back to me, I do believe God for a miracle this month, I did nit know I could hate my periods so bad until I started TTC, so since I dont want to give up for now, trusting God and reminding him of his promises, (Not daily thou) what I have decided not to look at my next due date for my period on the glow app, so I just focus on the  fertile window. Wish me luck.

Myomectomy surgery, and my faith

Image
I was 26 years old when I found out that I had fibroids. I am African American. I have had heavy periods with clots for 3years but when I went to my GP, the nurse dismissed it as anemia and probably my change in diet. In 2012 after uni, I decided to have the contraceptive implant under my arm so I could focus on my education to become a lawyer. Whilst I was in law school, I did not have a period for 6 months, but on the 7 th month I had a very heavy clot so much that it weighed down my knickers, as big as an orange that came out, I was scared and ran to d GP and he thought I was having a miscarriage, and I thought that the contraceptive had failed me. But after a pregnancy test I was not, and then the doctor spoke to me about Fibroids, which I dismissed because all the people I knew that had Myomectomy where in their late or early 40s so I dismissed it. In November 2013 after I was called to the bar (became a solicitor and advocate) I had taken out the implant in October bec...

Post Myomectomy

Post myomectomy operation, I will advice that you stick to the doctor’s advice, do all he tells you even if your body feels otherwise. I spent 3 days in the hospital and when I came home, having OCD, I unpacked my bags myself, and put things away. I also took very short walks, from the house to the gate, as the doctor told me to exercise my calf muscles. On my day 2 at home, I made lunch, and also swept my house from kitchen to bathroom, lounge and bedroom, as I was bored, and also because I feel no one can clean to my taste. I did not feel any pain, and I could bend, although I could not stand up right. A week later, I removed the stitches, and then the pay back began. First of all it was so painful taking off the plaster as my pubic hair had grown a bit. (Rub a lot of baby oil on all sides of the plaster before you go to have it removed) when the thread was taken off, it was as if the pain had been released. I could not walk upright again; I was in so much pain, had swellings ...

FOLIC ACID REVIEW

I started taking folic acid about 3 weeks ago, excited about it, and feeling very prepared for my journey; all of a sudden I started having pimples very tiny ones like rash on my forehead .  I started using my Italian towel, but to no avail.  It still kept coming up fresh every day and multiplying. I had to sit back and think about what new stuff I have introduced to my system. I then pinned it down to the folic acid. I browsed about it, and I found out that most people complained that they did have acne from taking the folic acid. It has been 3 days since I stopped taking it, and I can see the pimples is suppressing on its own. My husband explained to me that the dosage maybe very high. My dearest friend Mina, did suggest that I take pregnacare in prepration, for conception, as it also has all the nutrients I need from conception, and pregnancy.  So I think that I will start that by the end of the month. A pharmacist did explain to me that in pregnacare the amou...
