Cercelage

Hello my lovely readers, I do trust everyone is well.

Ok today I will be blogging about cercelage( sewing the cervix shut).

So work got very busy for me when I found out I was pregnant, and I had no option than to tell my boss only (after all he is the one that pays me). Because I became lazy especially at mornings and struggled to get into work early.

Mum and my sister and brother came over to visit me and stay with for a week as my Pancakes(my lovely husband) was out of town. Then I was 13 weeks pregnant.

I was running around to making sure mum was comfortable and also juggling the office as well. One evening I came home, and was hit with severe back pain and cramps worst than period cramps. Coming to think of it, this pain has been present from about 6 weeks of my pregnancy, and I read that it was normal but I still went in to check with my doctors.

Anyways, I was strong enough to make dinner, then we all sat to devour my delicious meal, when i started to feel wet in my knickers. Strange yeah?  I though the same, could I have peed myself?

I went to the toilet to pee, when I wiped up, I saw this thick brown mucus on the tissue paper, it was really a lot. I called my sister into the bathroom and showed her and she prayed for me. I took courage. However when I woke up at night to pee, I found out that I had started bleeding lightly, then it became heavy. I had to go into the hospital the next day at 2pm to see my doctor.
He performed a scan and checked my cervix. He told me that my cervix was opened and that I was ready to have my baby. I laughed and said baby its not time for you to come out and watch cartons yet. ( I had to encourage myself with the word of God) when i was about 10 weeks along, I heard a voice when I was walking back from the salon saying to my spirit "Convernat this child unto the Lord as his child),I prayed and convernated my baby to God. That was my confidence and my support. I knew that I would carry this baby to full term.

I had an emergency surgery that night and had the cercelage placed. I stayed in the hospital for 3 days because my tough baby kept fight the foreign body,  giving me serious contractions. I was home and place on bed rest for 2 months. In the two months I have had days where I had to be rushed to the hospital because the contractions were so painful and I will feel the urge to push, my waist and pelvis will be so hurt me so bad that I can't sit still or concentrate.

Even in my home state of affairs, I had to insist that I worked from the house and went into d office when ever I could.( girl got to remain relevant to pay the bills)

I cannot thank God enough for how Pancakes stepped up, he became my chef, my dula, my driver, my doctor, nurse name it all. And all this he did with a smile and never for once complained. I also got a house keeper to help with the cleaning.

But in all I am thankful to God that despite this rough road, I am still pregnant and my baby is doing well.

May the Lord keep all expectant mums in Jesus name. Amen.

Thank you for reading. Comments are welcome.

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...
