Things No one told me about Labour and Delivery. Part One

Pooping during delivery is normal.

Infact 7/10 women p**p during delivery if not all women 🤣. This is because you use your p**p muscles to birth your baby. The added pressure on your re**um when the baby moves through the birth canal is what can cause you to p**p. So my dear future mom's do not be afraid to p**p if you feel like it and worst of don't be ashamed. Those midwives are very much equip to handle that. Nasty right? Abegi Joor🤣 you won't mind when the time comes🤣

Pitocin(force Labour) is not a childs play.

The pain associated with it is unbelievable. when a woman is due for delivery, oxytocin hormones are naturally produced to aid in delivery. However where the mom is long overdue, or contractions are not progressing, Pitocin is given to facilitate the process. But if you have ever been given pitocin induction you would attest to the fact that the pain is on another level. I would say its back to back with no breathing space.

You give birth twice. Yes you read it well

When your baby is born, you would have to give birth to the placenta a few minutes after. The placenta is what gave your baby nutrients and water during pregnancy. You literally have to have contractions to attain this. This is why in some cases you might be given an oxytocin injection to aid. Its is very important to note that if any residue of placenta is left in your stomach this can lead to life threatening circumstances.

During labour and delivery you won't care about the word "Dignity". You might walk naked, cry like a baby, scream like a mad person or other gestures and you will not care about who is watching. Your only thought would be to give birth and be free from the pain.

Which of the following were you told prior to given birth? Please share so others can learn

Knowing these secrets I am about to share with you, will change how you are seen by a new mom. Whether its your wife, sister, friend or inlaws. This is going to heal and make your relationship stronger.

There are certain questions that every new mom loves to hear. It doesn't matter who she is and you asking them will instantly bring joy to her even if she says no. Here are a couple of them.

How can i help you today, or this week? Its so thoughtful and will be very much welcome. Even if she says she is fine, she will be grateful you asked. She is struggling in at least one area so please ask.

Is there any way i can make your life easier today? Her reply could just be very simple like making a cup of tea, or holding the baby so she can bath but she will remember this for a long time.

Is there anything i could do for baby Z or X? this can just be as little as going to buy diapers or playing with baby Z for a minute so she could get other things done. Please ask

Its not just the questions but the thought behind this questions. It will make her feel loved and cared for. Please do ask.

Dear New mum, i know you are trying to do it all by yourself but you don't need to. You are not a bad mum for needing and asking help. You are not selfish for accepting help and you are truly not bothering anyone. Ask when you need help and recieve it openly when offered to you.

Five DON'T s when visiting a new mom

1) Don't kiss her baby. I cannot over emphasize the importance of keeping your kiss to yourself or your spouse. Please do not kiss someone else's new born. You leave them with a higher chance of getting really sick. I'm sure you don't want that.

2) Don't comment on the mother's weight. No matter how tempted you are please do not comment on a new mom's body. ( inshort don't commend on anyone's weight) The mother knows her shape and weight. Leave her be. She is just from birthing a human.

3) Don't give unsolicited advice. I know this is of good faith but unless a mom comes to you for advice, do not dish out one. If you see her struggling with something then you can step in otherwise don't start giving random advice. We are all guilty of this.

4) Don't go about looking for what is wrong.
New mom's need a lot of grace especially in the new born stage. If you see her looking cranky, or the parlor a little unkept don't start making comments.Adjusting to the new life isn't bonbon especially when you do not have any helping hands. Instead you can help out with whatever needs your attention and if possible insist in a loving way to help because some mom's feel guilty for asking and receiving help

5) When she is sharing her pregnancy or birth story, do not interrupt her to talk about yours. Remember its about her not you. Listen and reassure her. It will go a long way to make her feel heard and valued

What other things would you add in this list?

Things I wished I new about Pregnancy
PART TWO

You don't need to take every pregnancy advice.

As soon as people notice your pregnant, they will start advising you. Inshort 95% of the time is not advice you asked for. I'm not excluded but its not every advice you take. Biko nu screen advices well because some can be very dangerous to you and your baby. I was adviced to use a traditional leaf to pump, omo its later i realized that the leave has high chances of causing miscarriage or premature birth. Was it said in good faith? yes... but was it also harmful? yes... So please, screen every advice carefully. Sometimes as a mom you might be anxious to give birth on time or pressured to want to stop a symptom of pregnacy but do your research. Do it before jumping to try things you don't know. Some people were ignorant and lucky. It might not be your story

- Your Expectant date is not your actual date of delivery.

During my first pregnancy, when i did my last echographie, i thought that i would give birth on that date if not atleast few days before or after because of what some women had told me which in their defense was true because remember their journey could be different from mine. But that was not my experience. Two to three weeks after my expectant date, i was still very okay and no sign of delivery. I started panicking especially after meeting one of my fellow pregnant friend who was also delayed and had been scheduled for immediate CS. When i went to the hospital, i was convinced that i too would be schedule for CS ( again wrong conception). Dear future mom, your expectant date is not your actual date of delivery. It is just estimated so please don't be anxious or worried if you give birth two weeks before or After.

You see google? google should be your best friend.

For now ChaptGt can be if you so like but please have an online best friend. Most times than not, many moms do not feel comfortable asking certain questions but guess what?? google or ChaptGT do not mind. My baby will shake and i will ask google why? I will ask google when my baby will start having hands and eyes inshort every question 🤣

Dear future mom S*x doesn't harm your baby.

Yes i said it. S*x doesn't harm your baby except otherwise advised by the doctor because of complications if not please feel free to have s*x. That baby came there through it and is not afraid of it🤣. During pregnancy some women's drive for s*x actually sky rock. Every moment you will be doing tourchy tourchy with your husband.Don't be shy it is normal. But then there are also women who experience low s*x drive during this period thats also normal.
If you are experiencing low s*x drive always check the following
- Are you stressed? Could be finance, it could be not feeling loved
- If you are experiencing a severe pregnancy symptom like headache, vomiting etc it can affect your s*x drive negatively.
-It could just be your hormones acting up
In all, be patient with yourself.

Things i wish i knew about Pregnancy.
PART ONE

Future moms and Dads do not scroll past without reading this.

As a mom of two, i wish i knew the following about Pregnancy. This would have saved me alot of stress.It would have meant the world if my husband was also informed beforehand. So please take the time to read. Here we go!

- The first and third Trimester are the hardest.

In the first trimester, your body is adjusting to your baby and this is where you experience the morning sickness, the vomiting, lack of appetite and alot more. Most women then get a break in their second trimester. I glowed in both pregnancy during the second trimester until i loved pregnancy but then, the 3rd trimester showed me Shege Promax🤣 the big nose and bigg everything, the inability to sleep comfortable, the constant peeing, the swollen leg and face etc. Dear future mom take note. The good news is some people do not experience all of this. SOME

-Secondly, your pregnancy journey is unique.

No two pregnancies are the same.
The fact that Martina experiences vomiting doesn't mean that Grace will and just because Grace has a big appetite doesn't mean Georgia will. You must constantly have this at the back of your mind. Your pregnancy Journey is unique. I didn't experience alot of things during my frist trimester but it doesn't cancel the fact that many mothers have it worst. This is why you shouldn't use your pregnancy to judge other moms. Inshort if you are a mom of two you will attest that the two pregnancy will have different experiences. A food you might like with your first baby might be what you hate with the second. So dear future moms, be patient with yourself and embrace your pregnancy experience.

--Thirdly, you do not need 85% of the things you plan to buy for your baby. You read that right.

I know as a new mom you are excited to get your baby every cute thing you can find but let me burst your bubbles. That's waste of money. You only need a few dresses to sustain your baby during their first 3months of life. This is because babies grow at different pace when they are out of the womb and the first 3months are when they rapidly gain weight. You see that nice dress you have bought? the baby might not be able to wear past the second month of their life.One thing wa pain me bad was me buying a babies bed🤣 turns out my two kids were extremely collicky and needed me to hold them to sleep( let's talk about bedsharing and it's disadvantages later) . That bed had another purpose though🤣 not just for sleeping. I know of a mom who bought a box of expensive cloths and the baby arrived big. She literally had to start buying another set of dresses.Imagine the cost, and the pain in your pocket? Some people advice buying very big dresses but then how it looks on your baby matters too. So please buy few dresses and change as the baby grows.Now that we are on this, Let me scream here, a baby walker is not a priority for your baby. So you that mom thats saving to buy now please REST. One of the most important advice i would give is buy as the need arises. Okay ooh

Which of this did you experience in your pregnancy Journey? Please share so others can learn.
