Salivating during pregnancy?

🤗Producing more saliva than usual is common during the first few months of your pregnancy. Just like nausea and morning sickness, excessive salivation is also a common occurrence in the first trimester of pregnancy.

😉 It's among the many changes a woman experiences. You should not worry as it is a common condition and does not harm you or your baby.

🙄Excessive salivation during pregnancy can be quite annoying. Especially if you have to wake up at night because you’ve been drooling too much, or when you don’t feel like swallowing the excess saliva as it makes you more nauseous.

🤗Few tips to help ease the discomfort of salivating.

💕Start with the basics like sucking on an ice cube.

💕You can also use a mint mouthwash; do make sure that it’s safe to take during pregnancy.

💕Drinking more water helps too as salivation is often a response to dehydration.

💕Visit your doctor if it's too excess and uncontrollable.

Safe delivery in Jesus name 🙏🙏

When should I register for antenatal? 🤔🤔

🤗 You should start your antenatal care as soon as possible, once you know you are pregnant.

👍This gives an avenue to inform your Obstetrician/Gynecologist, in collaboration with other health professionals, about the needs that come with each stage of pregnancy as it progresses.

🤔Is antenatal important?
YES, because regular antenatal appointments are essential to keep an eye on your baby’s growth and development and detect health conditions that are unfavorable to your baby. An example is pre-eclampsia and urinary tract infections which may not have early symptoms but can be detected through routine blood-pressure checks and urine tests.

What is implantation bleeding?

💕Implantation bleeding is defined as a small amount of light spotting or bleeding. It typically occurs about 10 to 14 days after conception. Implantation bleeding is common, and it usually isn't a sign of a problem.

💕Implantation bleeding is thought to occur when the fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus.

💕 Implantation bleeding usually occurs around the time you would expect to have a menstrual period.

💕 However, implantation bleeding is lighter than menstrual bleeding.

💕Implantation bleeding is light, stops on its own and doesn't require treatment. If you're concerned about any vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, contact your health care provider.

Your earliest pregnancy symptoms

19/06/2023

What happened to my belly when Baby’s out?

so what’s making the belly bulge?
Is it belly fat or loose skin or hormones or what?

Well, it’s a little of everything because you gained some weight, which is exactly what you were supposed to do. Your abdominal muscles — two parallel bands of muscles that support your core — stretched out.

💕Here are few out of many exercises to try out within the few weeks after delivery.

💕Lie on your back, place your feet flat on the floor, and bend your legs.

💕Pull your belly button in toward your spine and lift your pelvis off the floor.

💕Tighten your buttocks and hold for 5 seconds.

Aim for 5 sets of 20 repetitions.
Within 8 to 12 weeks, you should be ready to move on to deeper abdominal exercises.

Happy motherhood journey 😀😀😀👍👍👍👍

🌹Few ways to monitor ovulation for an expecting couples

🌹Ovulation Predictor Kits

Ovulation predictor kits are urine tests, similar to home pregnancy tests, that show when your luteinizing hormone (LH) levels surge. An LH surge usually indicates that you will ovulate within 12 to 36 hours. Once the test predicts ovulation, it is recommended that you have s*x daily for the next several days.
In most cases, you need to take the tests over consecutive days to accurately detect the surge. If you test over five days, you have an 80% chance of predicting ovulation; over 10 days, that figure rises to around 95%.
Digital fertility monitors work similarly to ovulation predictor kits but offer more precision and earlier detection. The drawback is that the monitor and test sticks tend to be very pricey. But these devices are accurate enough that some couples use them to avoid pregnancy.

🌹Tracking Cervical Mucus Changes

Charting cervical mucus isn't for everyone, but it can certainly give you a good idea as to when you will be ovulating. When used with basal body temperature charting, this method of monitoring offers a relatively high level of accuracy.
Around the time of ovulation (the ideal time to have s*x in order to conceive), the cervical mucus begins to thin and clear. It has an appearance similar to that of raw egg whites. This thinning allows s***m to pass through the cervix during in*******se and provides them a more alkaline environment in which to survive.

🌹Charting Your Basal Body Temperature

Basal body temperature charting (BBT charting) involves taking your temperature first thing in the morning, before you even rise from bed. A sustained temperature increase indicates that you have ovulated. By maintaining a chart over the duration of your cycle, you can detect these temperature changes.
In some cases, BBT charting may even offer a hint as to whether you have conceived or not. This is the so-called "implantation dip."

🌹calendar method.

If your menstrual cycle tends to be the same number of days from month to month, it's a good bet that you ovulate around two weeks, or 14 days, before your period begins. Of course, this can vary based on your individual cycle. If you have a 35-day cycle, for example, you will most likely be ovulating around the 21st day.
Mean while Using a calendar to track ovulation is less helpful if you have irregular periods that vary from one month to the next.

Wishing all the TTC mums the very best of luck 🙏🙏🙏

🌹All about an Ovulation

Ovulation is when a mature egg is released from the o***y, pushed down the fallopian tube, and is made available to be fertilized.

⬇️Below are some of the signs that make a woman understand what is ovulation and its signs:

🌹Changes in the cervix. During this period, the body realizes what is ovulation. Cervix becomes soft and open up.

🌹Change in the mucus produced by the cervix. As a woman reaches her ovulation time, her body starts understanding what is ovulation and starts producing more estrogen, which makes the cervical mucus clear and stretchy, like an egg white. It helps the s***m to swim and reach the egg that was released during ovulation.

🌹Change in the basal body temperature. Basal body temperature is the lowest body temperature observed during rest/sleep period. The body at this period gauges what is ovulation and increases body temperature by 0.4 to 1.0 degree. This is because of the progesterone hormone secreted when the egg is released. It is said that women are most fertile during those two-three days before the basal body temperature.

🌹Increased sense of smell – For a lot of women, an increased sense of smell in the latter part of the menstruation cycle is a sign of ovulation. The woman’s body in this fertile phase understands what is ovulation and is attracted to the male pheromone androstenone.

🌹Sensing the exact moment of ovulation. Females who understand what is ovulation can sense the exact moment of ovulation.

🌹Little cramping or pain on either side of the pelvis – The pain experienced by a woman during ovulation can last between few minutes to few hours.

🌹Tenderness in the breast. This is because of the elevated hormone levels before and after ovulation.

🌹Abdominal bloating.

May God bless all TTC Mums with their own bundle of joy in Jesus Name 🙏🙏🙏

🌹How Soon After a Miscarriage Can You Get Pregnant?

🌹You can get pregnant when you begin ovulating again, which can be as soon as two weeks after a miscarriage (though it may be longer).

🌹Your Hormones After a Miscarriage

🌹Waiting to heal before trying to get pregnant after a miscarriage is a wise choice not just for emotional and physical health but also because hormones play a huge role in conception and pregnancy. And just like other aspects of healing, your hormones will need time to settle too.

🌹Some people may ovulate as soon as two weeks after a miscarriage, assuming the pregnancy was lost before 13 weeks, but it generally takes two months for their cycle to return. Waiting for a full two months—or for a complete and normal menstrual cycle, which generally takes about two months—ensures that the pregnancy hormone hCG has dipped to levels so low that it's undetectable. The uterine lining will also return to normal, making it receptive to receiving a future fertilized embryo.

🌹When trying for a successful pregnancy after miscarriage, the goal is to "reset" the body by allowing a full menstrual cycle to occur. It may not be medically necessary to wait, but when pregnancy is attempted right away before the pregnancy hormones from the miscarriage have cleared from the body, you may receive a false positive on a pregnancy test. Conversely, your doctor may mistakenly pick up falling pregnancy hormone levels from the miscarriage and deduce that the second pregnancy is miscarrying when it actually isn't.

Note: The goal is for you to heal physically and mentally so you can have a healthy full term baby afterwards.

Wishing you all the Best 🤱🤱🤱

🌹Self care during the last trimester

🌹Because your baby is reaching full term, you may feel more uncomfortable during your third trimester than you did during your second. To manage some of the discomfort, try some of the below methods after checking with your health-care provider first. Remember, choices should always be made based on your preferences and what is available to you.

🌹For heartburn, ask your health provider for advice on diet and lifestyle modifications. If these do not help, antacid preparations can be used for troublesome symptoms.

🌹For difficulty sleeping, try using a pillow to support your whole body or just specific areas that need it to help ease tension while you rest.

🌹Healthy foods and regular exercise are important during your third trimester and throughout your pregnancy. Keep up with your regular exercise routine, but do not exhaust yourself. As a general rule, you should be able to hold a conversation while working out. Always consult your health-care provider about exercise during pregnancy. Continue eating a variety of foods to make sure that you are getting adequate energy, protein, vitamins and minerals.

Safe delivery to you in Jesus Name 🙏🙏🙏
