What is happening? I cant view messages

BS.
This delivery was all I prayed for. Short, precise and fast.
I was already tired of being pregnant and all.
Monday 6th January at midnight, I woke up to pee and couldn't sleep so I decided to do a little midnight prayers.
I literally prayed and cried my heart out lol (lemme blame pregnancy hormones). Told God to take charge from the Doctors to the Nurses down to whoever was going to be with me. Hubby woke up and ed me.
After the prayers, I saw a message from my Nurse and she sent exercises I could do. By 2am, I did the exercises, squats and all then I went back to sleep.
Woke up around 6am to prepare my daughter for school and I was already feeling slight cramps, told hubby and he took over with preparing her for school.
I decided to wash the dirty clothes we had and hubby ed me with slight cramps in between.
By 10am, the pain was becoming a bit intense and I hurried with my chores just to make time go faster because I told myself that I wouldn't rush to the hospital like my first (I would have given birth at home).
Hubby asked me to bath and we kept timing the contraction in between to know and it was just 2mins apart and I couldn't bear it any more.
We left home by 11:30, got to the hospital and they asked me to wait so I'd be itted. Hubby was at the receiving end of all the pain
I saw fire while waiting and a nurse on duty saw the way I was crying and writhing in pains so she just asked me to follow her to the labour ward.
Entered the ward by 12pm, pulled my dress and she decided to check to see how far I have gone. The pain for checking was on another level and she said I was 7cm gone so she decided to do a membrane sweep and also to break my water Kai!!!! I literally saw fire and brimstone. She finished and I was 8cm.
Dr came in and said he wanted to check to be sure she was right 😢😢😢 another round of checking and each contraction made it painful.
After checking, the Dr asked a question and I answered that's how we started arguing and laughing o me that was in pains and when contraction hit, I'd stop laughing and start crying again lol.
I'd count through my teeth and breath in and out with each contraction. Dr said they'll check in an hour which was going to be 1:30pm
By 1:15 I literally started talking to God and my baby and told them I didn't want any Dr to check so baby should come.
By 1:20, the strong urge to push came and I told the nurse with me how I was feeling, she checked and saw the baby crowning, Dr was called in and Delivery started.
The Nurse kept telling me how she didn't want me to tear so I should obey her instructions.
She told me not to raise my bum up as it would lead to tears and I should push with each contraction.
Did as I was told with plenty drama sha and in 2 pushes baby came out all white and looking for breast to suck. She weighed 3.5kg at birth... She was placed on my chest and hubby was called in to see his baby and also identify her.
Then placenta was brought out but not complete as it turned out that the membrane was still inside me and that's how another round of putting hands inside of me started so they could get all out.
After all was done, I got cleaned up and baby was brought to be breastfed.
In all, I'm grateful for the Dr, Nurses and also student nurses on ground because they were what I specifically prayed for and got.

As January comes to an end today, we're handing over to February mamas.
God be with you all as you go forth and birth your LO.

Cant lift nor hold things for long without crying in pains... I am right handed, unfortunately na dt right hand d thing hook me... I am using d hand or not ooo, d pain is always there.. It get worst in d night n wen i try using d hand... Unfortunately, there is no cure dan to manage wit pain killer and was given a brace. Doc said it goes on its own.

Having a stiff back wen i sit/lay down 4 long( it get worst in d night too, i goes away after few minutes) , waist pains, body pains n i walk an old woman. I now have big pregnancy nose (i always feel wen blood is rushing to my nose because its painful), super hyperpigmentation on my face and peeling (my face don black finish), i eat like hungry lion, i eat anything eatable as long as it is pregnancy friendly. I just pray i don't add weight after pregnancy. Wen going for school runs i use 1hour to take a walk of 20mins.. Because i am now super slow n waddling like a penguin... My son sef don tire 4 my matter because i dont push his stroller fast enough 4 him to enjoy his ride. Lol. Going shopping is horrendous!!!! But i gaz do wat i gat to do cs no help.

Hold on tight n lets go another round of another month before march.... We can do it!!!! Lets go!!!! Yeyyyyyyyy!!!!!!

Where are August mamas😿,are you not done with morning sickness?😿

I'm 19 weeks pregnant and have been going for weekly progesteron shots due to my history of recurrent miscarriages .
On Thursday I went as usual and unfortunately the nurse did not inject at d right place.
The area is really swollen and I have been in pains since can't even sit properly.
I started having fever on Saturday and Sunday and went to complain to my gyaeno and we agreed to treat malaria since I have not at all .
He placed me on drips and injections on Monday and Tuesday .
My worry is this swelling. Hubby has been using ice block to apply pressure(massage d area), ori, Reparil gel but It's not reducing in size or pains.
The doctor Later gave Augumetin 625mg (twice a day) but theres no improvement with the 4 tablets I have taken so far. Is there something else I can do?

Sorry mama.
My bag packed already. I have heavy back pain that I have to lie on the tiles all the time. The bed seems too soft for my belly. You know we have to sleep with both sides alone and I guess that's where the back pain came from. I just easily tired too coupled with the fact that I also have a 3 year old with no help. I can't wait for next month.

I understand that carpal tunnel syndrome pain fully cos I’m experiencing it. One of the ways to sleep without it disturbing you is to stretch out the affected hand while sleeping and it at the wrist with a rolled towel or wrapper. The aim is to keep that wrist elevated. It works really well for me

yeah but wen i stretxh the hand... It got worst... I read it's better to leave it alone.. Anyways!!! I got hand brace for it from my physiotherapist... It keeps d pains away just a little thou... D downside of d brace is dt it keeps me from using my hand fully n very uncomfortable.
