I greet, Well done o,helep a sister out. Stella, morning sickness don kill me o (mine is 24hrs sickness). I was encouraged that it will stop at the 4month, I have hit the mark but it even got worse.
Haven't been to church or anywhere in months, Can't leave my room(the whole house stinks) except when going to the hospital to collect bed and be stuck on IV for days, nothing stays down, liquid, solid and even gas. Lol. I can't even take my prenatal drugs cos nothing stays down for more than 5mins. The vomiting is almost every 30mins even when the tummy is very empty, with excruciating pain in my abdomen. The pain no be here, I don cry tire. My doctor keep saying it's normal (there is nothing normal about this biko), I have lost all my body weight and looks like someone who's been sick for yrs now.
Hubby has really been pitching for me the best he knows how and I really feel bad for the poor guy. I have tried bitterkola,ginger tea,chewing gum, everything and anything but no relief. Abeg my own dey different? This is my first time being pregnant.
Yesterday was so tough, I cried all through and couldn't even touch my phone. Pls how much longer will I be this miserable? What can I do to get a relief? I don't even sleep at night cos of the pain till abt 3am and even the faintest noise wakes me up.
Let BV's helep me biko. Iphie dearie, GW and all other lovely mothers in the house, how una dey do am?
Make una no leave me like this o, you guys (all BV) are the family I have and love.
*Wow this sounds serious.mine always stopped on the first day as i entered the fourth month,however I must not fail to say that monrning sickness turned my life inside out and upside down.I used to stay in bed from morning til night and night till morning..OMG,i dont even want to remember.
I can just imagine what you are going through but i cannot understand your stomach paining you.please go to a good hospital and check,IT IS NOT NORMAL.
DEALING WITH CANDIDA OVERGROWTH SYNDROME (COS)....HELP!
Hi Stella,I write this with tears in my ears. I'm just fed up of life. I want to end it all but suicide is not an option. It all started about 8 years ago.I started feeling this intense pain in my stomach area.
After a while,I started feeling this crawling thing in my body.It came with other symptoms like bloating i.e I eat little and it feels like I've eaten the whole world, pain in my breasts, chest pain,ringing in my ears,dizziness, migraines, brain fog,constant tiredness n more symptoms that I can't even describe.It affected every part of my body so that if it's my head today,it's my stomach tomorrow and another part of my body the day after I still feel these symptoms except the crawling thing.
I have spent so much money looking for a solution to my problem all to no avail. I did several tests,scans etc but doctors weren't able to diagnose my problem. I just recently discovered from my research on the internet that I have Candida Overgrowth Syndrome(COS).I did a spit test as directed and it came out positive.
It is a condition that develops as a result of an overgrowth of candida in the small intestines.I need to see a gastroenterologist and an ENT specialist. I had swollen lymph nodes early this year ,I was treated but the doctor asked me to see an ENT specialist. This has absolutely taken over my life.
l finished 4yrs ago and I still haven't collected my result cos of some unsettled bills.I earn less than #20,000 as a primary school teacher and I spend all I have on my health..I'm not married, I'm not even in a relationship(I'm in my early thirties) and most people in my family think I'm just using this as an excuse.
This is all too much for me to bear.I just do not have the strength to go on anymore.
*Is there any Doctor in house that can treat this Lady for free?She doesnt seem to be able to afford her treatment and she isnt asking for money....
Please Doctors in d house and Bvs. Ever since I started mensurating at the age of 12, it always lasted for like 4-6 days. I'm 23 now and I now mensurating for only 2days , I have done hormonal test, hysterscopy and even clean9?? Please what could be wrong? I also notice that I used to super ovulate before(swollen boobs, milky vagina and lower abdominal pain. Right now I don't even know if I still ovulate cos none of that happens... Just 2days period(1st day light the next day heavy). I'm trying to get pregnant. Thanks
Pls I have similar case I only see my period of two days,and its very scanty like little drops,pls doctor wat could be the problem.I hardly use pad cos I know with the little drops I can't get stained.any drug I can use to rectify this.I feel all hormones changes when the period is abt to come but the period is still the same. Pls help cos am just 23 and I don't want wen I get married I won't be able to get preggy. Pls bear mind am ss. SDK pls publish..plss

Try it sha and Gods speed
Continue trying to hook that guy with pregnancy you hear? When he rejects you, don't come here to ask for help. Trying to get pregnant at 23 in 2014...

I know dat eating a lot of guava really helps to regulate one's menstrual cycle. some years back I used to have irregular menstrual cycle and without even knowing I was always eating guava dat period cos it was in season and it was really cheap,then I noticed dat particular month that my period was very regular. It was after some time dat a friend told me dat one of the nutritional benefits of guava is that it helps to regulate one's menstrual cycle. U can also browse out fruits/ foods dat help to regulate menstrual cycle. Same goes for other health issues, am not saying it's a 100 percent cure buh it will go a long way to help esp. Prevention. For the lady wif d infection issue,i know garlic helps a lot, it has anti fungal, anti bacterial and several oda anti and uncle properties #lol just make goggle ur friend (natural remedies for... and fruits/ foods dat have those properties mentioned earlier) in addition to seeking medical care. Above all depression and anxiety suld b ur worse enemies cos they only make things wrse. Just keep speaking health and life to urself and u ll begin to c changes. God bless u
Anon 10.34 you are in your early pcos stage, believe me it can be so frustrating am a living witness. At sometime you won't even see no period at all. I got so fed up that I decided not to take provera a menses induced drug which I take every month oo and I said for complete 6 months no single ovulation talk more menstruation. Yes it was that serious, I was so unhappy throughout those years. God being so kind I relocated to the US to join hubby and and series of tests the diagnosis was made and after the treatment fiammm bele enter immediately. As am talking am a proud mum of 2 by God's grace. Pcos it's bad and if left for long may cause permanent damage. NB anon don't worry after your first pregnancy your period Will start flowing like something else lol
You didn't say what the said results revealed...was an abdominopelvic scan done? Get yourself to a good hospital and have a competent doctor review you...much as seeking medical advice on blogs isn't harmful in itself,NOTHING BEATS A PYHSICAL EXAMINATION BY A DOCTOR...All the best Dear.
Awwww.Kehinde Ake ain't u a darling.u are truly good.u must be a sex therapist for all dat u said.am so impressed.thanks darling for d detailed explanation on d orgasm ich.anony 3.35 (yesterday).and Stella thanks so much for this forum.so many pple are enlightened wit different expose.
Edo finest she made a spelling error, why can't you just ignore it. Pple like u are the problem we have in Nigeria. Kike and Jayem because u girls are old single ladies does not mean girls aged 23 are not married and trying to be preggy. I don't like it when pple just jump into conclusion. Even if she is single and wants to get pregnant its entirely her business, she ask una for chop money? NO. Na me OIL MONEY talk am, incase my name no gree show
Please @Selene how can I contact you. As for the lady asking the result of the scan they said I had PCOS, but after clean9 it dissappeared(according to the scan) the clean 9 also remove a small uterine polyp. The bioscpy of the blood gotten during the hysterscopy showed I had extra thickinig of the uterus lining. I refused to be place on pills to regulate the period. My problem is the ovulation. Please help??
My dear,pls don't go hear d so called Dr Ajayi in Luth oo..pls don't waste ur precious time there. He does very plenty unnecessary tests which wont help u in the long run. I am talking from experience..if u can,Go to olive branch Lekki and ask for Dr Emeka. He wud help u out by God's grace. All the best

My friend there is nothing wrong in them posting their health challenges here. Like they say a problem shared is half solved. Someone here may have had similar health challenge, and would be at the best position to profer suggestions on how he or she overcame the problem and where. Go to specialist...go to specialist, d'you think it is all of them that know what they r doing.
Champagne addict and other over sabi bvs,,swear that you ve never googled any symptom experienced by your very self. Ever heard of support system? Ok, you are not a doctor,why open this post when its clearly written "for doctors"? Please,We learn from these challenges.mind you,some people are hospital shy.They think of the worse and delay the evil news by not going immediately.Platforms like this give them a soft landing. Hearing how others got over similar problems is catalyst for the healing process.So read and be informed. Enough of "this is not a hospital tirade"...meanwhile you go read,refresh,read again. Ta!
Ist narrative; There is nothing to worry about... Like your doctor said,its normal..my first pregnancy was horrible...I had that morning sickness for like 5months before it stoped... Try eating crackers biscuit,coconut water and mostly peppery and sour foods...it worked for me..
No 1, nothing is wrong with you, during my first preggie i was unable to hold anything through out down except liquid and even that liquid was a herculean task..Then i had terrible hiccups, see your doctor if you aren't comfortable, insist the doctor checks you out, pele dear.
Pls it's nt by force 2 comment on every post, those who ask 4 help must have been 2 d hospital bt it only mks u feel beta dat sum1 has been thru or is goin thru wat u feel n sum1 mite have a solution. Pls I wanna beg those who comment stupidly on post like dis 2 stop! It cud b u who needs help one day. Sickness isn't fixed to one person alone it's just by d grace of God we live.
Am guessing u av d same thing as the duchess of Cambridge hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which is a dangerous type of morning sickness. Google it to find out more info
I was puking till the day I put 2 bed.what I don't understand is the pain in ur abdomen. Pls check that out. U can try getting up slowly 4rm d bed in the morning so u don't feel queasy. Crackers helped a little 4 me, eat foods with pepper. Just rest as much as u can. But still see a doc about that pain. Soon it will be over when u see that baby in ur arms. The lord will strenghten u and perfect what he has started. Amen.
Linda is right. I had morning sickness for 5 months plus with my first pregnancy. You most likely have what is called hyperemesis gravidarum. Pls ask your doctor to check for dehydration, because that should be your main concern as it can affect your baby. There are medication they can give you through IV that might stop the vomiting, but they are very expensive. God is your strength.
Me I use to have pains when I vomit too.....the pain might be ulcer cos no food and the stomach acid acts up.....if u can't take anything down you just have to keep taking the drips so your baby can also have some nutrients....my own was such that no matter what I ate the vomit was always yellow and tasted bitter......I couldn't brush in the mornings cos when I do na too vomit.....me I suffered in first trimester but thank God am entering the third now and it's easier.....women dey suffer walahi...
Myy 1st Preg was so bad, stayed in hospital for 1week, missed some of my exam papers, in short for good 4months, it was hell on earth, my hubby said instead of me to die, make we commot am, for where, I no gree, finally it was diagnosed dat it was ovarian cyst. That d baby will suppress d cyst, I had to bare d pain, because I needed d baby bad bad jare. I thank God now. The big girl is 6yr now, So my sis don't worry, in few months time, ur pains will go away. Alwalys visit ur hospital.
I had terrible morning sickness wiyh my pregnancies right until delivery. The first one was really bad because I was on Nigeria at the time. There was nothing I didn't try - ginger, bitter kola, peppermint and more but they never worked. Things got better when I moved to Canada and saw a doctor who prescribed Diclectin. That has been my saving medicine with subsequent pregnancies. It is used for the treatment of hyperemesis gravidarum (terrible morning sickness). It reduces nausea and vomiting while you're able to keep fluid and food down though you will feel a little bit drowsy and sleepy. The benefits are great and I have met lots of people who have testified to it.
Poster 1 # it's normal as in the pain. I had dsame experience with my 1st pregnancy. Infact once the pain start I will start rolling on the floor crying my life out. But one day I woke up n the pain was gone. You just ve to bear. Pele
Stella, God bless you for this platform. I applaud the fact that we don't only gossip here *wink*, but you use your blog to help those in need in your own little way. May God bless you exceedingly and abundantly! I admire you Aunty Stella.
Lemme join you to thank Stella too. She's so amazing I wish she's my elder sister.
1st Narrative. Hang in there o. Thank God you even have strength to type so people are complete vegetable till 5 months. I advice you visit SDK daily and read old gossips/comments and old Saturday and Sunday laughs. They'll help you wella. Everyday I see reasons to thank God here. All my pregnancies I've never vomited nor know what morning sickness feels like. Tutto grazie a Dio
2nd Narrator Please collect advanced salary and go to a better hospital for proper treatment. You'll be alright if you don't give up
I was like you several months ago. And when I was about to give up, fiam all the sickness left and I can't wait to carry my baby. It is well. What mothers go through! You will be ok.
N1 I am not a doctor but could it be that you have gallstones cos someone had something similar to yours the same symptoms and the person was pregnant aswell.
N1. It is not normal, my 1st pregnancy was very easy, infact the only time I was uncomfortable when the tummy was big and I couldn't find a suitable sleeping position. This second one eh, hmmm like say I wan die, if I were a working class women they ll have sacked me cos I just can't do anything. It will stop, just have faith. God will heal u dear and u shall bring forth a healthy baby. N2. God will open ways for you that people will be rushing to help you financially and your health shall be restored too. I know how it feels to be sick, God bless you
My dear its normal, diff pple wit diff symptoms, infact diff pregnancies wit diff symptoms my 1st i has it lik day for lik 3mnths, my 2nd i had for almst 6mnths, my mom used to com check up on me as if i be science project. But wen d sickness left i was stronger dan a horse. Pls be patient cos its not easy. I uses to sit alone n cry but hia i am lookin bck n thk God. Cos many r out dere redi to do anythg to jst hv a baby. Be strong
She sure does! Hyperemesis gravidarum,simply means excess vomiting in pregnancy,common when multiple gestation(twins and above) are involved,antiemetics(used to check the vomiting) should be prescribed and IV fluids if extremely weak. An obstetric scan should also be carried out to ensure all is well with the baby,get yourself to a good hospital. It would pass Dear,all the best!@Poster 2,you didn't state your location.
My problem with naija doctors is lazyness....you literarily have to tell them what is wrong with you.....her doctor should be able to explain to her and let her know the implications.....am currently in the uk for the last trimester of my pregnancy and the diff is so 7up.......they explain every procedure, findings and implications......am carrying twins and hasn't being easy at all but I thank God for a break from LUTH.........
Pls stella, do you know of any cream or drugs for stretchmarks!!! It was as a result of a cream i was introduced to some couple of months ago and as am talking to you it has created a severe damage to my skin. Thanks!
ANGELRAY SAID Stella do u know did, Stella do u know dat, na Stella introduce u to bleaching cream, abeg carry ur wahala go another blog cos we ve serious matters to discuss.
Try shea butter mixed with coconut oil. It works for me. But it's a continuous application oo. Depending on the affected areas, you could use for like 3months or more.
Bio oil mixed with raw sheer butter works fine. btw, there is no cure for stretch marks. This mixture will only fade it over time. Also be consistent. Use morning and night for a minimum of 3months. Goodluck
Morning sickness is abaolutley normal,but the tummy pains is what I don't understand.its not normal at all to have tummy pains when you are pregnant.pls try anode hospital so they can do a proper check on you abeg
Lol.... Just drink more of liquids and go to hospitals for drip...... It just happens to some people more than others.... Am just about entering my 3rd trimester now but the 1st was worse for me.... I use to crawl from my bed sometimes to get something when I was alone.... Try Apple cider vinegar.... Read the instruction to see how to dilute it.... Also try ginger, just cut small and put in your mouth all day....I pray u get some respite later cos no be small thing.... Most multiple pregnancies too come with serious issues like that..... Your condition has a name can't remb now......it is well my dear..... For me now na waist pain so Tay I dey fear say I go paralyse......Enof of my ranting, all the best
My dear go to d hospital. . I never hear of pain befo o.. but morning sickness my dear no cure.. mine was hell, I vomitted at least twelve times in a day.. trust me I was counting. And sometimes I had nothing in my stomach but d puke kept coming truout d waking period. At night it stops. But 3 months kpakam it stops. Comes occasionally when I brush my teeth. This one u dey 4 months and still persists na wa o. But den again ppl are different in pregnancy and no two pregnancy are d same so u just have to ride it out. Heart burn dey come for front o so get ready. But for the tummy pain my sweets go to d hospital make u see better gynae o
Poster 1.. My dear it is well.. i would have said it will pass but i dont understand the stomach pain.. Try and see a gynea in a General hospital to be sure all is well.. Be strong once u have ur baby in ur arms u will forget all these wahala..
When I read that she was pregnant again..i said thank God we are not pregnant together this time,unlike the last time...little did I know I was in for it!! I saw her pictures and she looked like nothing was up,unlike me wen dey move like person dey push me!
Will I say we have something in common?? Hahahahhahaha..make una no eat me raw ooh.lolzzz
Ist Poster! Story of my life just that mine stops at 3months!! Just imagine going to work feeling this way! Not easy! My senior colleague always used to scream at me during my ist pregnancy;Iphie,jide onwe gi aka(Iphie hold yourself)..She would tell me that once I leave my tommy empty,i feel more nauseous..so I used to just nibble!
Am guessing yours is worse...you dey try dear.. This second pregnancy just hit me like a hurricane! it knocked me down,luckily am on leave,so I do the crawling,crying,throwing up and blogging indoors...Right now,i am spitting up a lil bit,but with my ist pregnancy,i consciously held myself and used to just put bitter kola in my mouth(i hate bitter kola with a passion)..nne, you have to psychologically pull through on your own! If you were going out sometimes,it would make you comport yourself by force lol..Staying at home all the time is not helping you!
I talked to my doctors and they kept telling me to take water,water,water,fruits,routine drugs! Mtcheewww! Like that is what I wanna hear! My husband when he is home is always ready to moveeeee! I can want something anytime...and he berra get it!!!!
Lmao! I am also in need of a miracle too...please give us advice oooh..lolz The only difference is that I notice mine is reducing..i hate water,it takes me 30minutes to figure out what to eat,am cranky as hell! Then I have the wee one that depends on me...
Lol....me na ice block I dey chew like who live for Iceland.......me that can eat for Africa food just be like shit....I will think of what to eat when they cook or buy I take two spoons and that's it......ko easy and na twins I carry.....I just thank God and am enduring cos na 9 years of waiting be this....some of us are not eaglets so it's harder but I give God all the glory for bringing me this far.....it is well with us and we shall end with praise and thanksgiving..
Chai poster num 2 Are they talking marriage when you have a lot of things on your plate..wow! This is too much for one person to carry! What a life...biko ndi dokita..help!!!
BV1 In my experience, all my pregnancy had different effect on me, Some with severe morning sickness and some I didn't even know I was pregnant till 5months as I keep seeing my period and infact eating more But my last ehn? I hear am From day one till 7months I nearly die! No food nothing stay down My docs said is accute Morning sickness I was on drip tru most time of my pregnancy But in ur case the stomach pain is what I can't understand Go see a gynae or an obstetrician I advice LUTH or a very good hospital and not all this small small clinic plss Goodluck
My friend had the tummy pains through out her first pregnancy. Her very experienced doctor kept assuring her all was well after series of tests were conducted. I was so concerned I took her to my own doctor for a second opinion and she repeated the same thing. Something about her muscles stretching, peculiar to a few women.
That way how she managed the pains through out the pregnancy and eventually gave birth to a very healthy baby. What a pregnancy! Thank God her second pregnancy was pain-free.
So Stella, in some pregnancies, the pain is normal.
My 15year old cousin had a swelling in her arm in january. Her parents thought it was as a result of a fall and kept rubbing it for her, but when the pain persisted after, they went to LASUTH. We were told that she had cancer and that it was spreading so fast, she had to decide- amputate her arm or leave the cancer to spread. You all know what we cajoled her to decide with much sorrow. My poor cousin's arm was amputated 2months ago, admist tears and all. She walked out of her waec exams because she couldnt draw the pie chart with one hand. I feel so sad, because i sense some negligence in LASUTHs treatment. We noted their carelessness when they wanted her to do a MRI scan, the operator was so upset that they was steel in her arm, and it was careless for them to have sent her to do something in a magnetic field with such in her arm. We thanked God for letting the operator notice.
Now 4months after her amputation she cannot sleep, she cries everyday and night, she used to be a jolly good fellow that loves other children and helps them but the pain is making her become depressed.
I remember asking then if she will not do chemotherapy after the amputation but the doctors said no. Now the girl is in terrible pain, she lost an arm and yet no consolation bcos the pain is even worse than before. I took her to a private hosp for a 2nd opinion and the dr was awed and angry that LASUTH did not do chemo after the surgery, he said it is very careless of them to do such a shabby job I dont even know what to ask drs in the house, but pls what do you advise us to do next. The family is just managing, i help in the little way i can. But this girls future is hanging in the balance, she is even talking suicide because of the pain. If i feel this way, i can imagine how she feels. When i see her. My eyes tear up. Sometimes i wish i am not Nigerian, i know how the medical system is abroad, for a minor especially. U expect the best from a govt hospital but we get shabby jobs.. Sorry this write up is not organised, i just wanted to pour my heart out, 4give any grammatical errors blogfam
I'm so saddened by this case. What a burden for a 15 year old. Truth be told, the amputation could have happened even in developed countries but it would have been followed by serious counselling to put her in the correct frame of mind. She would have had access to the best post-surgery treatment and her pains managed effectively. She would been given modified exams she can do with one hand.
Most things taken for granted elsewhere can be rocket science in Nigeria. I hope this poor girl gets all the help she needs.
OMG wish she was abroad...,,.of course keep praying for devine healing but then I think it's time to start contacting hospital abroad....start with India where it's cheap but go thru reputable contacts.....once they have her correct diagnosis they can give an estimate and then fund raising can start....people die needlessly in naija but I pray God to send her helpers....pls keep encouraging her cos she can live an independent life with prosthesis when all cancer trace is cleared...
Poster 1, research on hyperemesis gravidarum . Buy pregnacare or any other pregnancy tablets, avoid the hospital ones as they are uncoated and tend to make one sick. Always force yourself to eat even before you get hungry. It was the same way with me during my 1st pregnancy till d day I put to bed. It can be terrible but ur precious baby will be worth it. Hold on mama.
Hello Stella, how are you and the family? Trust you are all in good health by God's grace. Thank you for the good work you are doing. God bless you for releasing yourself to be used by God to be an instrument of praise.
my story is that i have severe period cramps, its so bad that i vomit, faint, have fever, cold feet, sweat profusely etc. Also when i'm ovulating i have pains.... dull but very painful in my lower abdomen, sometimes i bleed. Sometimes the pain killers prescribed don't work. Its like it has a mind of its own :)
i have ran all sorts of tests but nothing was seen. Some doctors even told me that it is normal, but i think to myself can this really be normal?
It is not normal.....it might be fibroids or endometriosis.....Google it then go see your doctor and suggest it so u can do further test..it's the same thing nike oshinowo has and it can cause infertility......
Anon 11:19AM!..you have Dysmenorrhoea (period pain)..yeah is normal! ..Take FERMINAX ULTRA? It has NAPROXEN.It works more than other pain tablets, so it worth a try!
My dear it's normal, at least my GP said so. I have the same thing- vomiting, dizziness, lose of appetite, severe pains such that it feels like i'll die. You're even lucky that you can take pain killers n know it's not working, I dare not swallow anything except saliva. It happened 2day n I've been wondering all day what labour would be like and if I can ever do it.
First poster,u jst described my situation weneva am pregnant. My morning sickness is out of d world. Tot i wld die during my first pregnancy morning sickness cos d experience was out of d world. The most annoying thing is how some stupid women wld come and start telling hub dt am not d first woman to eva get pregnant. Dt am pretending. That if am working,wnt i still go to work. Some pple do experience a stressfree pregnacy while it hell fr some. But d end justifies d means. Mine do last fr 5mnths.it has been like ds in all my.pregnacy.. Am currently carring my 3rd pregnancy in 4yrs of marriage(no be my fault,na God dey do am) and am seriously asking God to bless me wt a bb(i v 2girls)so i can put a stop to ds silly morning sickness. poster,jst continue to pray. I wl recommend d book Supernatural childbirth by Jackie Mize. It wl help u a lot. In due time,u wl look back and be fr eva grateful to God fr seeing u thru. U might even end up getting preggy again bfr baby clocks 1,jst like me.kpele. I knw how u feel but it wl soon be a thing of d past. Dt pains in d stomach is as a result of not eating. U probably might v vomited every food u v taken.
Stella,pls which one is "pls prove dt u are not a robot" does robots visit ur blog. If they v invaded ur blog dt edreamz sld be held responsible cos he might v imported them from d jupiter. If i type comment again and am told to prove dt am not a robot. I wl prove it by not commenting here again. Wat nonsense. D worst is typing and they wl tell u dt its incorrect.
Poster 1 hypermesis gravidarum. U are really loosing body fluids. U nid to b infused and kept on admission. Mind u ds cud continue till u put to birth it's an individual ting. U will b ok. Poster 2 help will locate u.
@ Moy dot- people come here sometimes, not because they do not know the way to the hospital but because they are trying to see if people have had similar experiences and how they managed. Please note that the 2 posters have been to the hospital.
Doctors can tell you all sorts but sometimes, it calms the mind when there is someone who can relate with what you are going through.
@ Poster 1- You may be normal. My cousin's first pregnancy, she was sick for the whole of the period- at least 8 months out of 9. she couldn't eat and threw up everything, she had to be placed on drips, to have something in her system. she was so pale and sick. Out of the 9 months, I don't think her total time at work was up to three weeks. she now has 3 boys. Her first two pregnancies were like that. Infact when she knew she was pregnant the second time, she nearly freaked out, she was really afraid, but the third boy- i think her system had normalized. it was stress free
@ Poster number 2- no idea. you may need to try out more hospitals or a BV may just know

No cream will give you that caramel skin colour without bleaching you.... Eat lots of veggies and fruits and avoid sun... I use my children's cream but people always ask me the cream I use cos my skin is over fresh...

This happened when my friend got pregnant the first time, hers was worse cos it was scary, she was always sick, she had to be carried sometimes. She lost weight and she won't eat cos she'd vomit, and this happened all thru her 3 trimesters till the baby came... but her 2nd pregnancy was easier as she was totally fine except for the spitting part which is normal. Pele

HELLO Mrs Stel DimOKO and Blog Visitors. I want to appreciate u for helping out yesterday regarding my babe feeling peppery in Vjay.We wil be going for a test and visit General Hospital.I pray they workout. Thank Stella,Madam Bloglord,Sex Expert Kehinde Ake and d Anonymous that said my Treasure was doing under g thing...u md me laugh and nt suspicious. God bless.
Poster 1, what you have is hyperemesis gravidarum, it's due to hormonal changes in pregnancy. Since you can't keep anything down, IV fluids with electrolytes replacements cos your electrolytes are probably out of place now. With the IV, your doctor can give you vitamins, reglan (to prevent vomiting), antacid, and antihistamines. Goodluck. I hope things work out for you. Poster 2, have you done a stool culture?
HELLO Madam Stel DimOKO and fellow Blog Visitor.I want to apprecite u all for helping out yesterday regarding my babe having peppery/burning sensation in her Vjay.The thing is,most of the time she wld nt allow me to use CD.She likes it fleshy and atimes,i can't help myself when i get 2 cloud9 than to release "nt voluntarily"..So we've decided to go for a test and visit a Gen Hospital.I just hope we get d help we need bcos this is going to cost much. Thank you Stella,Madam Bloglord,Dr sexologist Kehinde Ake and all the Anonymous ppl that said my Treasure is doing under g thn.You md me laugh. God bless you all.
I went thru same thing o during my first pregnancy....Subsequently, my doc advised I use Vomex A...It is an anal insert....It works like magic....Stops all weakness and vomiting....Maybe an alternative to Vomex A can be found in Naija.
prove that u r not a robot is probably happeening to u for a reason,it is not from my end...google updated yesterday so pls wait for a few days and lets see.I have asked a lot of pple and its only happening to 1percent.
sorry bout that.
stop derailing this post please.people are learning and contributing.
That means I fall in the one percent too. It is highly annoying and has prevented me from commenting for some days now. The letters are so hard to make out and even when you type the correct thing,it will say you're wrong.
to the BV asking about how to stop her oily face... this may sound weird, but the best primer in the world is 'Milk of Magnesia' (I hope I spelt correctly). I'd been wasting money on primers for my oily face for ages till I was introduced to it (you can find some videos about it on youtube).I live in Nigeria, and it can be gotten from any chemist (sold 1$ in yankee, but its 2k in naija lol). Anyways, I always use it under my makeup... my face stays the exact same way when I getback from work... I excitedly tell people about this cuz the oil I bn dey suffer on my face fit fry akara lol... Now all that is history. Give it a try!!!
Ps: To Poster 1, I'm 7months preggers with 2nd baby, with some minor fibroids and when it degenerates it causes some pain. This is completely normal. My Doctor says I just have to deal with it... plus my extreme morning sickness... I def know what ur going through. Be strong, once u hold ur precious baby, u go forget this suffer dey rush to carry belle again lol.
Your body is changing- yea hormonal change. different body type different reaction. the food that work for A or B may turn against you.
every body's body is different
my first preg I was so weak, puked all the time, spitting all the time, could hardly eat. all of these during the first 3 months, after then , it all stopped I was filled with energy till 7months when I became so uncomfortable. difficulty in sleeping and all of that
my second preg, I didn't even experience morning sickness at all or discomfort or any of those things. the only thing was I craved for some crazy food. i'd park my car at allen and sit by one woman that roasts boli and yam and i'd be eating straight from the fire. she gave me a plate and one oil stew like this that comes with the bole and roasted yam. when am done, she calculates my money, I pay and drive off. looking back now..am like really? I did that?(that time I no send o!)
hehehehhehhehehee
I am talking too much now...
madam, you are on ur way to motherhood, document your experience, you will laugh over it later when the kids don de grow.
N1, Take Jacob's crackers first thing in the morning. The original Jacob's crackers only, eat it just as you wake before doing anything. It helped me a lot. All the best dear
I suffered severe mornings sickness to through out all of my pregnancy I was always in and out of hospital after taking IV fluids for about tow weeks I will go back home and return back after one or two weeks for another hospital admission there was a time my trout was cracked and so I was bring out blood ad well I hope your own won't be like mine that lasts the whole nine months sha. We are not alone even prince Williams wife Catherine has the same condition.
Poster#1 Congrats! I tot I had severe morning sickness till i read yours. I felt much better by 18weeks expect when am hungry. I always have to nibble on something. Silliest thing is I enjoy food I would not even look at if I was not pregnant. A friend was eating mango and I had some, since then I have been on a mango diet. Husband just bought a case of mango. Try looking for food you would not normally eat. No matter how you feel never leave ur stomach empty. Hope you feel better soon. Oh and i always chew on ice. For the pain it might just be ur muscles expanding. Go for an ultrasound to check for cyst and fibroid. Poster#2: I don't know how they check for worms in the body but check to ensure you don't have worms. Check for abnormal worms not the usual worm we all pooped out as kids. Check for worms that attack the intestine.
Poster 2 that says she has candida; if in fact you do have candida, then I also read on the internet when I watched a video about candida that probiotics help a lot with this. You see candida is really an overgrowth of bad bacteria as opposed to good bacteria in the body. Do your own research and talk to your doctor about finding a really effective probiotic to balance the bacteria in your body. Good luck.

Anon 11.18. The Lord is your little cousin's strength. If only you people will have faith and take her to SCOAN and book her for prayer line first Saturday of every month and see God in action. I can feel her pains at such a young age
I am poster No1, thanks y'all for ur precious time and comments, I am encouraged, God bless y'all reall good. As much as it feels bad to know that some people went thru or are still going thru this horrible phase(I won't even wish it on an enemy), it still feels kinda good and soothing to know that am not alone in this, atleast there is something normal atall about it. So I went to the hospital this morning and has been placed on IV fluids since morning, had 3 already and feeling a lot better(stomach pain stopped, it usually does when am on IV fluids which makes me suspect it is probably caused by the excess vomiting). Hopefully I will be discharged in a day or two. @Moy Dot champagne abi na whiskey lol, my dear u won't understand, it's not about going to the hospital (I go every week and to a very good one) but bro there is something soothing about hearing from someone who can truly relate to ur situation. The support I've gotten here today, I haven't gotten 20% of it from my doctor, so it is priceless!!! @Stella...God bless u plenty, u are just an angel on a mission to soothe and change lives. Thanks for giving me a voice. All the mothers and expectant ones on the house, una dey try o, may God bless and strength u all. May God speedily answer every woman trusting him for fruit of the womb but make una pregnancy no be like this my own o, smooth ride.
Congratulations on your pregnancy. You seem to be having Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which unfortunately affects few women in pregnancy. However, tummy pain in pregnancy is something that should NEVER be ignored. If your ob/gyn insists nothing is wrong, pls seek a second and third opinion. Also do not eat bitter kola while pregnant. And an empty stomach makes the nausea even worse. Try to stay hydrated by sucking on ice cubes. Hopefully, at some point in your pregnancy, it would end. Stay strong.
Nne congrats on ur first baby!!! Hehhehehehehehehe....Brace ya self for my long story...LMAO

For oily face, soap and water is the answer. Wash wash wash your face often. Even at work, use the rest room and wash your face once it starts getting oily. DO NOT use powder. You will only clog your pores and start getting pimple when there is no free path for the oily ish to flow through. All the best.
When I was pregnant, I used to vomit a lot. So a friend introduced me to "kafura pelebe" sorry I dnt know wat it's called in English. It's used to preserve herbal mixtures.
Poster with COS!..THE 1ST step is to starva the yeast, this as to do with your diet, stop eating anything Sugar that have sugar and fruits (they contain natural sugar), because candida feed really well on sugar and multiply in that way.And milk also because it's the sugar lactose that tends to promote yeast over growth. *all the very best* To kill the COS it's will take a month or more long process by using potent antifungal herbs or medicines. You need a Naturopathy for a course of antifungal herbs, for medicines, Take oral antifungal fluconazole (Diflucan) weekly for 6mths. And during the process of txment avoid sugar in that way you starve the COS. Then after the course of txment Take probiotics (but not yogurt) once a night for 7 night, then 3 night for 3wks & then once a week. Your Naturopath should also put you on a course of detox (this is very important).

DeleteI know dat eating a lot of guava really helps to regulate one's menstrual cycle. some years back I used to have irregular menstrual cycle and without even knowing I was always eating guava dat period cos it was in season and it was really cheap,then I noticed dat particular month that my period was very regular. It was after some time dat a friend told me dat one of the nutritional benefits of guava is that it helps to regulate one's menstrual cycle.
DeleteU can also browse out fruits/ foods dat help to regulate menstrual cycle.
Same goes for other health issues, am not saying it's a 100 percent cure buh it will go a long way to help esp. Prevention.
For the lady wif d infection issue,i know garlic helps a lot, it has anti fungal, anti bacterial and several oda anti and uncle properties #lol just make goggle ur friend (natural remedies for... and fruits/ foods dat have those properties mentioned earlier) in addition to seeking medical care. Above all depression and anxiety suld b ur worse enemies cos they only make things wrse. Just keep speaking health and life to urself and u ll begin to c changes. God bless u
Anon 10.34 you are in your early pcos stage, believe me it can be so frustrating am a living witness. At sometime you won't even see no period at all. I got so fed up that I decided not to take provera a menses induced drug which I take every month oo and I said for complete 6 months no single ovulation talk more menstruation. Yes it was that serious, I was so unhappy throughout those years. God being so kind I relocated to the US to join hubby and and series of tests the diagnosis was made and after the treatment fiammm bele enter immediately. As am talking am a proud mum of 2 by God's grace. Pcos it's bad and if left for long may cause permanent damage.

DeleteChampagne addict and other over sabi bvs,,swear that you ve never googled any symptom experienced by your very self. Ever heard of support system? Ok, you are not a doctor,why open this post when its clearly written "for doctors"? Please,We learn from these challenges.mind you,some people are hospital shy.They think of the worse and delay the evil news by not going immediately.Platforms like this give them a soft landing. Hearing how others got over similar problems is catalyst for the healing process.So read and be informed. Enough of "this is not a hospital tirade"...meanwhile you go read,refresh,read again. Ta!

DeleteIst narrative;
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing to worry about...
Like your doctor said,its normal..my first pregnancy was horrible...I had that morning sickness for like 5months before it stoped...
Try eating crackers biscuit,coconut water and mostly peppery and sour foods...it worked for me..
2nd narrative;
See your doctor...
Coconut water? Make I go fine am!
DeleteIphie,I nornally put the coconut in the fridge or freezer before breaking it...
DeleteNo 1, nothing is wrong with you, during my first preggie i was unable to hold anything through out down except liquid and even that liquid was a herculean task..Then i had terrible hiccups, see your doctor if you aren't comfortable, insist the doctor checks you out, pele dear.
DeleteNo 2: You need to start treatment ASAP.
Pls it's nt by force 2 comment on every post, those who ask 4 help must have been 2 d hospital bt it only mks u feel beta dat sum1 has been thru or is goin thru wat u feel n sum1 mite have a solution. Pls I wanna beg those who comment stupidly on post like dis 2 stop! It cud b u who needs help one day. Sickness isn't fixed to one person alone it's just by d grace of God we live.
DeleteEat bitter kola too,it helps controlling nausea and salivating during pregnancy,and no quantity is harmful to d body.
Delete1st narrative am also preg in my 9th month and have nausea,my doc gave ondansteron zofran its really expensive,talk to ur doc abt it
DeleteAm guessing u av d same thing as the duchess of Cambridge hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which is a dangerous type of morning sickness. Google it to find out more info
DeleteCoconut is officially going to be my number 1 food for now. Coconut water na my bestest of the betest drink for the next few months. Hehehe
DeleteI was puking till the day I put 2 bed.what I don't understand is the pain in ur abdomen. Pls check that out. U can try getting up slowly 4rm d bed in the morning so u don't feel queasy. Crackers helped a little 4 me, eat foods with pepper. Just rest as much as u can. But still see a doc about that pain. Soon it will be over when u see that baby in ur arms. The lord will strenghten u and perfect what he has started. Amen.
DeleteLinda is right. I had morning sickness for 5 months plus with my first pregnancy. You most likely have what is called hyperemesis gravidarum. Pls ask your doctor to check for dehydration, because that should be your main concern as it can affect your baby. There are medication they can give you through IV that might stop the vomiting, but they are very expensive. God is your strength.
DeleteMe I use to have pains when I vomit too.....the pain might be ulcer cos no food and the stomach acid acts up.....if u can't take anything down you just have to keep taking the drips so your baby can also have some nutrients....my own was such that no matter what I ate the vomit was always yellow and tasted bitter......I couldn't brush in the mornings cos when I do na too vomit.....me I suffered in first trimester but thank God am entering the third now and it's easier.....women dey suffer walahi...
DeleteMyy 1st Preg was so bad, stayed in hospital for 1week, missed some of my exam papers, in short for good 4months, it was hell on earth, my hubby said instead of me to die, make we commot am, for where, I no gree, finally it was diagnosed dat it was ovarian cyst. That d baby will suppress d cyst, I had to bare d pain, because I needed d baby bad bad jare. I thank God now. The big girl is 6yr now, So my sis don't worry, in few months time, ur pains will go away. Alwalys visit ur hospital.
DeleteI had terrible morning sickness wiyh my pregnancies right until delivery. The first one was really bad because I was on Nigeria at the time. There was nothing I didn't try - ginger, bitter kola, peppermint and more but they never worked. Things got better when I moved to Canada and saw a doctor who prescribed Diclectin. That has been my saving medicine with subsequent pregnancies. It is used for the treatment of hyperemesis gravidarum (terrible morning sickness). It reduces nausea and vomiting while you're able to keep fluid and food down though you will feel a little bit drowsy and sleepy. The benefits are great and I have met lots of people who have testified to it.
DeleteGoodness ME! Agwoturumbe stay outta this!
ReplyDeletePoster 1 # it's normal as in the pain. I had dsame experience with my 1st pregnancy. Infact once the pain start I will start rolling on the floor crying my life out. But one day I woke up n the pain was gone. You just ve to bear. Pele
DeleteStella, God bless you for this platform. I applaud the fact that we don't only gossip here *wink*, but you use your blog to help those in need in your own little way. May God bless you exceedingly and abundantly! I admire you Aunty Stella.

DeleteN1 I am not a doctor but could it be that you have gallstones cos someone had something similar to yours the same symptoms and the person was pregnant aswell.
ReplyDeleteMr Lyca
Sorry oh pregnancy is not easy. Lol
ReplyDeleteAahh!!! It is well
ReplyDeleteN1. It is not normal, my 1st pregnancy was very easy, infact the only time I was uncomfortable when the tummy was big and I couldn't find a suitable sleeping position. This second one eh, hmmm like say I wan die, if I were a working class women they ll have sacked me cos I just can't do anything. It will stop, just have faith. God will heal u dear and u shall bring forth a healthy baby.

DeletePele dear, the Lord will strengthen you,amen.
DeleteOil money, you know pregnancy differs. It might be normal.
DeletePoster 1 you probably have hyperemesis gravidarum.
ReplyDeleteShe sure does! Hyperemesis gravidarum,simply means excess vomiting in pregnancy,common when multiple gestation(twins and above) are involved,antiemetics(used to check the vomiting) should be prescribed and IV fluids if extremely weak. An obstetric scan should also be carried out to ensure all is well with the baby,get yourself to a good hospital. It would pass Dear,all the best!@Poster 2,you didn't state your location.
DeleteSpicy, thank you for explaining o....so na excess vomiting be hyperemesis Bla Bla? Ndi dokinta.....
DeleteMy problem with naija doctors is lazyness....you literarily have to tell them what is wrong with you.....her doctor should be able to explain to her and let her know the implications.....am currently in the uk for the last trimester of my pregnancy and the diff is so 7up.......they explain every procedure, findings and implications......am carrying twins and hasn't being easy at all but I thank God for a break from LUTH.........
DeletePls stella, do you know of any cream or drugs for stretchmarks!!!
ReplyDeleteIt was as a result of a cream i was introduced to some couple of months ago and as am talking to you it has created a severe damage to my skin.
Thanks!
Stop d cream use landers baby oil
DeleteANGELRAY SAID
DeleteStella do u know did, Stella do u know dat, na Stella introduce u to bleaching cream, abeg carry ur wahala go another blog cos we ve serious matters to discuss.
Try whitenicious or call pela
DeleteWhen they tell you people not to bleach and you don't listen...Stella this, Stella that, na Stella give you bleaching cream use?
DeleteTry bio oil..
Deleteyea try Bio Oil for stretch marks.
DeleteTry pure raw shea butter. It s well dear
DeleteBio oil doesn't work jare.....use ori.....
DeleteTry shea butter mixed with coconut oil. It works for me. But it's a continuous application oo. Depending on the affected areas, you could use for like 3months or more.
DeleteBio oil mixed with raw sheer butter works fine. btw, there is no cure for stretch marks. This mixture will only fade it over time. Also be consistent. Use morning and night for a minimum of 3months. Goodluck
DeleteTry Retin A. It works faster than Bio oil
DeleteOver to the experts.
ReplyDeleteMorning sickness is abaolutley normal,but the tummy pains is what I don't understand.its not normal at all to have tummy pains when you are pregnant.pls try anode hospital so they can do a proper check on you abeg
ReplyDeleteLol.... Just drink more of liquids and go to hospitals for drip...... It just happens to some people more than others.... Am just about entering my 3rd trimester now but the 1st was worse for me.... I use to crawl from my bed sometimes to get something when I was alone.... Try Apple cider vinegar.... Read the instruction to see how to dilute it.... Also try ginger, just cut small and put in your mouth all day....I pray u get some respite later cos no be small thing.... Most multiple pregnancies too come with serious issues like that..... Your condition has a name can't remb now......it is well my dear..... For me now na waist pain so Tay I dey fear say I go paralyse......Enof of my ranting, all the best
ReplyDeletePls don't advise a pregnant woman to take apple cider vinegar,its too strong
DeleteGod will heal both of you.

Ist Poster!
ReplyDeleteStory of my life just that mine stops at 3months!! Just imagine going to work feeling this way! Not easy!
My senior colleague always used to scream at me during my ist pregnancy;Iphie,jide onwe gi aka(Iphie hold yourself)..She would tell me that once I leave my tommy empty,i feel more nauseous..so I used to just nibble!
Am guessing yours is worse...you dey try dear.. This second pregnancy just hit me like a hurricane! it knocked me down,luckily am on leave,so I do the crawling,crying,throwing up and blogging indoors...Right now,i am spitting up a lil bit,but with my ist pregnancy,i consciously held myself and used to just put bitter kola in my mouth(i hate bitter kola with a passion)..nne, you have to psychologically pull through on your own! If you were going out sometimes,it would make you comport yourself by force lol..Staying at home all the time is not helping you!
I talked to my doctors and they kept telling me to take water,water,water,fruits,routine drugs! Mtcheewww! Like that is what I wanna hear! My husband when he is home is always ready to moveeeee! I can want something anytime...and he berra get it!!!!
Lmao! I am also in need of a miracle too...please give us advice oooh..lolz
The only difference is that I notice mine is reducing..i hate water,it takes me 30minutes to figure out what to eat,am cranky as hell! Then I have the wee one that depends on me...
Shout out to Oil money and Jenny A! Tnx guys
Yes it is a rant!!!!
Yes oooooo. No be small something at all. We bless the Lord. At least av never vomited n no spitting. I dey sleep like mumu sha.

ReplyDeleteIn my experience, all my pregnancy had different effect on me,
Some with severe morning sickness and some I didn't even know I was pregnant till 5months as I keep seeing my period and infact eating more
But my last ehn? I hear am
From day one till 7months I nearly die!
No food nothing stay down
My docs said is accute Morning sickness
I was on drip tru most time of my pregnancy
But in ur case the stomach pain is what I can't understand
Go see a gynae or an obstetrician
I advice LUTH or a very good hospital and not all this small small clinic plss
Goodluck
My friend had the tummy pains through out her first pregnancy. Her very experienced doctor kept assuring her all was well after series of tests were conducted. I was so concerned I took her to my own doctor for a second opinion and she repeated the same thing. Something about her muscles stretching, peculiar to a few women.
DeleteThat way how she managed the pains through out the pregnancy and eventually gave birth to a very healthy baby. What a pregnancy! Thank God her second pregnancy was pain-free.
So Stella, in some pregnancies, the pain is normal.
My 15year old cousin had a swelling in her arm in january. Her parents thought it was as a result of a fall and kept rubbing it for her, but when the pain persisted after, they went to LASUTH. We were told that she had cancer and that it was spreading so fast, she had to decide- amputate her arm or leave the cancer to spread. You all know what we cajoled her to decide with much sorrow.
ReplyDeleteMy poor cousin's arm was amputated 2months ago, admist tears and all.
She walked out of her waec exams because she couldnt draw the pie chart with one hand.
I feel so sad, because i sense some negligence in LASUTHs treatment.
We noted their carelessness when they wanted her to do a MRI scan, the operator was so upset that they was steel in her arm, and it was careless for them to have sent her to do something in a magnetic field with such in her arm. We thanked God for letting the operator notice.
Now 4months after her amputation she cannot sleep, she cries everyday and night, she used to be a jolly good fellow that loves other children and helps them but the pain is making her become depressed.
I remember asking then if she will not do chemotherapy after the amputation but the doctors said no.
Now the girl is in terrible pain, she lost an arm and yet no consolation bcos the pain is even worse than before.
I took her to a private hosp for a 2nd opinion and the dr was awed and angry that LASUTH did not do chemo after the surgery, he said it is very careless of them to do such a shabby job
I dont even know what to ask drs in the house, but pls what do you advise us to do next. The family is just managing, i help in the little way i can. But this girls future is hanging in the balance, she is even talking suicide because of the pain.
If i feel this way, i can imagine how she feels. When i see her. My eyes tear up. Sometimes i wish i am not Nigerian, i know how the medical system is abroad, for a minor especially.
U expect the best from a govt hospital but we get shabby jobs..
Sorry this write up is not organised, i just wanted to pour my heart out, 4give any grammatical errors blogfam
Oh God.....please heal this child....
DeleteOh this is really sad....
DeleteI feel for the girl.
I pray she gets the necessary help.
Sad!...dis should even be a post on its own. God will take control of d situation in jesus name
DeleteI'm so saddened by this case. What a burden for a 15 year old.
DeleteTruth be told, the amputation could have happened even in developed countries but it would have been followed by serious counselling to put her in the correct frame of mind. She would have had access to the best post-surgery treatment and her pains managed effectively. She would been given modified exams she can do with one hand.
Most things taken for granted elsewhere can be rocket science in Nigeria. I hope this poor girl gets all the help she needs.
My dear it. Is called Phantom pain...u can Google it. it coms frm d amputated limb..most times it is psychological anyway.
DeleteOMG wish she was abroad...,,.of course keep praying for devine healing but then I think it's time to start contacting hospital abroad....start with India where it's cheap but go thru reputable contacts.....once they have her correct diagnosis they can give an estimate and then fund raising can start....people die needlessly in naija but I pray God to send her helpers....pls keep encouraging her cos she can live an independent life with prosthesis when all cancer trace is cleared...
DeleteThank you all. God bless. Will work on your advise
DeletePoster 1, research on hyperemesis gravidarum . Buy pregnacare or any other pregnancy tablets, avoid the hospital ones as they are uncoated and tend to make one sick. Always force yourself to eat even before you get hungry. It was the same way with me during my 1st pregnancy till d day I put to bed. It can be terrible but ur precious baby will be worth it. Hold on mama.
ReplyDeleteHello Stella, how are you and the family? Trust you are all in good health by God's grace. Thank you for the good work you are doing. God bless you for releasing yourself to be used by God to be an instrument of praise.
ReplyDeletemy story is that i have severe period cramps, its so bad that i vomit, faint, have fever, cold feet, sweat profusely etc. Also when i'm ovulating i have pains.... dull but very painful in my lower abdomen, sometimes i bleed. Sometimes the pain killers prescribed don't work. Its like it has a mind of its own :)
i have ran all sorts of tests but nothing was seen. Some doctors even told me that it is normal, but i think to myself can this really be normal?
Hmmm..check if you have fibroid...
DeleteHmmm..check if you have fibroid...
DeleteYes it is normal. My menstrual cramps used to be like your own but luckily, it left with childbirth. Now,I don't feel any discomfort at all..
DeleteIt is not normal.....it might be fibroids or endometriosis.....Google it then go see your doctor and suggest it so u can do further test..it's the same thing nike oshinowo has and it can cause infertility......
DeleteAnon 11:19AM!..you have Dysmenorrhoea (period pain)..yeah is normal! ..Take FERMINAX ULTRA?
DeleteIt has NAPROXEN.It works more than other pain tablets, so it worth a try!
My dear it's normal, at least my GP said so. I have the same thing- vomiting, dizziness, lose of appetite, severe pains such that it feels like i'll die. You're even lucky that you can take pain killers n know it's not working, I dare not swallow anything except saliva. It happened 2day n I've been wondering all day what labour would be like and if I can ever do it.
DeleteFirst poster,u jst described my situation weneva am pregnant. My morning sickness is out of d world. Tot i wld die during my first pregnancy morning sickness cos d experience was out of d world. The most annoying thing is how some stupid women wld come and start telling hub dt am not d first woman to eva get pregnant. Dt am pretending. That if am working,wnt i still go to work. Some pple do experience a stressfree pregnacy while it hell fr some. But d end justifies d means. Mine do last fr 5mnths.it has been like ds in all my.pregnacy.. Am currently carring my 3rd pregnancy in 4yrs of marriage(no be my fault,na God dey do am) and am seriously asking God to bless me wt a bb(i v 2girls)so i can put a stop to ds silly morning sickness. poster,jst continue to pray. I wl recommend d book Supernatural childbirth by Jackie Mize. It wl help u a lot. In due time,u wl look back and be fr eva grateful to God fr seeing u thru. U might even end up getting preggy again bfr baby clocks 1,jst like me.kpele. I knw how u feel but it wl soon be a thing of d past. Dt pains in d stomach is as a result of not eating. U probably might v vomited every food u v taken.
ReplyDeleteIt is well oooooh!
DeleteI read supernatural childbirth too....beautiful book
DeletePls where can I get it 2 buy in nigeria? Thanks
DeleteStella,pls which one is "pls prove dt u are not a robot" does robots visit ur blog. If they v invaded ur blog dt edreamz sld be held responsible cos he might v imported them from d jupiter. If i type comment again and am told to prove dt am not a robot. I wl prove it by not commenting here again. Wat nonsense. D worst is typing and they wl tell u dt its incorrect.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one that took note of it o! Robot alert
DeleteAre you stupid, foolish or just daft? What has Stella got to do with your internet connection?
DeleteIt's like that on every other blog once u are using operamini or some apps. It's an ish 4rm google and I hope they rectify it soon.

ReplyDeletePoster 1 hypermesis gravidarum. U are really loosing body fluids. U nid to b infused and kept on admission. Mind u ds cud continue till u put to birth it's an individual ting. U will b ok.
ReplyDeletePoster 2 help will locate u.
@ Moy dot- people come here sometimes, not because they do not know the way to the hospital but because they are trying to see if people have had similar experiences and how they managed. Please note that the 2 posters have been to the hospital.
ReplyDeleteDoctors can tell you all sorts but sometimes, it calms the mind when there is someone who can relate with what you are going through.
@ Poster 1- You may be normal. My cousin's first pregnancy, she was sick for the whole of the period- at least 8 months out of 9. she couldn't eat and threw up everything, she had to be placed on drips, to have something in her system. she was so pale and sick. Out of the 9 months, I don't think her total time at work was up to three weeks. she now has 3 boys. Her first two pregnancies were like that. Infact when she knew she was pregnant the second time, she nearly freaked out, she was really afraid, but the third boy- i think her system had normalized. it was stress free
@ Poster number 2- no idea. you may need to try out more hospitals or a BV may just know
@ comment 1, same fin as me, am 22, am period is so light nd I ve done all tests burh am ok, even an intra-vaginal scan. I started ma period @ age 13, was 4-5 days den. Now ma ovulation time z kinda chunky milky discharge. I very been worried n dunno wat is going on, can a doctor pls explain? Fanx

She lost weight and she won't eat cos she'd vomit, and this happened all thru her 3 trimesters till the baby came... but her 2nd pregnancy was easier as she was totally fine except for the spitting part which is normal. Pele

DeleteNa wa o, Oga Wale!
DeleteWhich one you come highlight the "OKO" in Stella's name?
Poster 1, what you have is hyperemesis gravidarum, it's due to hormonal changes in pregnancy. Since you can't keep anything down, IV fluids with electrolytes replacements cos your electrolytes are probably out of place now. With the IV, your doctor can give you vitamins, reglan (to prevent vomiting), antacid, and antihistamines. Goodluck. I hope things work out for you.
ReplyDeletePoster 2, have you done a stool culture?
HELLO Madam Stel DimOKO and fellow Blog Visitor.I want to apprecite u all for helping out yesterday regarding my babe having peppery/burning sensation in her Vjay.The thing is,most of the time she wld nt allow me to use CD.She likes it fleshy and atimes,i can't help myself when i get 2 cloud9 than to release "nt voluntarily"..So we've decided to go for a test and visit a Gen Hospital.I just hope we get d help we need bcos this is going to cost much.

to the BV asking about how to stop her oily face... this may sound weird, but the best primer in the world is 'Milk of Magnesia' (I hope I spelt correctly). I'd been wasting money on primers for my oily face for ages till I was introduced to it (you can find some videos about it on youtube).I live in Nigeria, and it can be gotten from any chemist (sold 1$ in yankee, but its 2k in naija lol). Anyways, I always use it under my makeup... my face stays the exact same way when I getback from work... I excitedly tell people about this cuz the oil I bn dey suffer on my face fit fry akara lol... Now all that is history. Give it a try!!!
ReplyDeletePs: To Poster 1, I'm 7months preggers with 2nd baby, with some minor fibroids and when it degenerates it causes some pain. This is completely normal. My Doctor says I just have to deal with it... plus my extreme morning sickness... I def know what ur going through. Be strong, once u hold ur precious baby, u go forget this suffer dey rush to carry belle again lol.
Milk of magnesia? Noted. My oily face no be for her.Chop kiss boo
DeleteYour body is changing- yea hormonal change. different body type different reaction. the food that work for A or B may turn against you.
ReplyDeleteevery body's body is different
my first preg I was so weak, puked all the time, spitting all the time, could hardly eat. all of these during the first 3 months, after then , it all stopped I was filled with energy till 7months when I became so uncomfortable. difficulty in sleeping and all of that
my second preg, I didn't even experience morning sickness at all or discomfort or any of those things. the only thing was I craved for some crazy food. i'd park my car at allen and sit by one woman that roasts boli and yam and i'd be eating straight from the fire. she gave me a plate and one oil stew like this that comes with the bole and roasted yam. when am done, she calculates my money, I pay and drive off.
looking back now..am like really? I did that?(that time I no send o!)
hehehehhehhehehee
I am talking too much now...
madam, you are on ur way to motherhood, document your experience, you will laugh over it later when the kids don de grow.
all the best!

ReplyDeleteI suffered severe mornings sickness to through out all of my pregnancy I was always in and out of hospital after taking IV fluids for about tow weeks I will go back home and return back after one or two weeks for another hospital admission there was a time my trout was cracked and so I was bring out blood ad well I hope your own won't be like mine that lasts the whole nine months sha. We are not alone even prince Williams wife Catherine has the same condition.
ReplyDeleteLol....ehi 1 I give you twale for your grammar....
DeletePoster#1 Congrats! I tot I had severe morning sickness till i read yours. I felt much better by 18weeks expect when am hungry. I always have to nibble on something. Silliest thing is I enjoy food I would not even look at if I was not pregnant. A friend was eating mango and I had some, since then I have been on a mango diet. Husband just bought a case of mango. Try looking for food you would not normally eat. No matter how you feel never leave ur stomach empty. Hope you feel better soon. Oh and i always chew on ice. For the pain it might just be ur muscles expanding. Go for an ultrasound to check for cyst and fibroid.
ReplyDeletePoster#2: I don't know how they check for worms in the body but check to ensure you don't have worms. Check for abnormal worms not the usual worm we all pooped out as kids. Check for worms that attack the intestine.
Poster 2 that says she has candida; if in fact you do have candida, then I also read on the internet when I watched a video about candida that probiotics help a lot with this. You see candida is really an overgrowth of bad bacteria as opposed to good bacteria in the body. Do your own research and talk to your doctor about finding a really effective probiotic to balance the bacteria in your body. Good luck.

As much as it feels bad to know that some people went thru or are still going thru this horrible phase(I won't even wish it on an enemy), it still feels kinda good and soothing to know that am not alone in this, atleast there is something normal atall about it.
ReplyDeleteSo I went to the hospital this morning and has been placed on IV fluids since morning, had 3 already and feeling a lot better(stomach pain stopped, it usually does when am on IV fluids which makes me suspect it is probably caused by the excess vomiting). Hopefully I will be discharged in a day or two.
@Moy Dot champagne abi na whiskey lol, my dear u won't understand, it's not about going to the hospital (I go every week and to a very good one) but bro there is something soothing about hearing from someone who can truly relate to ur situation. The support I've gotten here today, I haven't gotten 20% of it from my doctor, so it is priceless!!!
@Stella...God bless u plenty, u are just an angel on a mission to soothe and change lives. Thanks for giving me a voice.
All the mothers and expectant ones on the house, una dey try o, may God bless and strength u all. May God speedily answer every woman trusting him for fruit of the womb but make una pregnancy no be like this my own o, smooth ride.
Congratulations on your pregnancy. You seem to be having Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which unfortunately affects few women in pregnancy. However, tummy pain in pregnancy is something that should NEVER be ignored. If your ob/gyn insists nothing is wrong, pls seek a second and third opinion.
ReplyDeleteAlso do not eat bitter kola while pregnant. And an empty stomach makes the nausea even worse. Try to stay hydrated by sucking on ice cubes.
Hopefully, at some point in your pregnancy, it would end. Stay strong.
Nne congrats on ur first baby!!!

I don die with laughter. You be character. Did you say cocaine?
DeleteI bow to you! Tuale!!!
DeleteThe pain is due to d fact that she's vomiting too much. Once she can limit d vomit, d pain will go.
DeleteFor oily face, soap and water is the answer. Wash wash wash your face often. Even at work, use the rest room and wash your face once it starts getting oily. DO NOT use powder. You will only clog your pores and start getting pimple when there is no free path for the oily ish to flow through. All the best.
ReplyDeleteShe can buy face wipe and clean wen she notice that her face is oily.
DeleteWhen I was pregnant, I used to vomit a lot. So a friend introduced me to "kafura pelebe" sorry I dnt know wat it's called in English. It's used to preserve herbal mixtures.
ReplyDeleteCont. just put in water and be sipping. It worked for me.
ReplyDeleteGod is in control.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm..fear don catch me ooo....meaning that a 2months pregnant woman can actually puke in church or reception on her wedding day
ReplyDeletePoster with COS!..THE 1ST step is to starva the yeast, this as to do with your diet, stop eating anything Sugar that have sugar and fruits (they contain natural sugar), because candida feed really well on sugar and multiply in that way.And milk also because it's the sugar lactose that tends to promote yeast over growth.
ReplyDelete*all the very best*
To kill the COS it's will take a month or more long process by using potent antifungal herbs or medicines. You need a Naturopathy for a course of antifungal herbs, for medicines, Take oral antifungal fluconazole (Diflucan) weekly for 6mths. And during the process of txment avoid sugar in that way you starve the COS.
Then after the course of txment Take probiotics (but not yogurt) once a night for 7 night, then 3 night for 3wks & then once a week.
Your Naturopath should also put you on a course of detox (this is very important).
