She Delivered Safely… Then D!ed Because She Didn’t Pass Urine 😭 This Is Why Every Woman Needs To Read This and Never Forget It!

Everything went well.
The baby came out crying.
She smiled weakly and whispered, “Thank You, Jesus.” 🙏
Everyone rejoiced. Nurses cleaned her up, family took pictures, husband called everyone — “She has delivered o!” 🎉

But within hours… everything changed. 😢
She started feeling pain in her lower tummy.
She said, “I want to urinate, but it’s not coming out.”
They thought it was normal.
They gave her water, told her to try again.

Minutes turned to hours…
Her tummy kept swelling.
Her face changed.
She became restless.
Then she stopped talking.

By the time the nurses rushed in, her bladder had burst.
Urine had leaked inside her abdomen.
Her body went into shock.
They tried — but it was too late. 💔

Many people don’t know this, but after delivery, passing urine is a must!
If a new mother doesn’t urinate within a few hours after childbirth — it’s an emergency! 🚨

The womb and bladder are neighbours.
During labour, the bladder can get weak or compressed.
When urine builds up and can’t come out, pressure increases and the bladder can tear or burst.

That simple act of “I haven’t urinated since delivery” can mean life or d£ath.

So please, my dear pregnant women and new mothers:
🩸 After giving birth, always try to pass urine.
👩‍⚕️ If it doesn’t come out, tell your nurse or midwife immediately.
❌ Don’t say “It’s small matter.”
⏰ Don’t delay, every minute counts!

You carried life for 9 months… you deserve to live to raise that life. 💔
Let no woman d!e from something that could have been prevented.

This is why we rush some women for emergency C-section without warning 😳

In labour ward, one minute can mean life or d£ath.

Sometimes, we don’t even have time to explain.
We just shout, “Prep her for theatre NOW!” and everyone starts running.

You may think we’re being too fast…
You may think we’re trying to force a CS…
But behind that speed is often a cry for help from your baby or your womb. 😢

Let me explain what really happens 👇

Sometimes, during labour, baby’s heartbeat suddenly drops from 140 to 80.
That’s fetal distress.
If we delay even 5 minutes, that baby might suff0cate inside the womb. 💔

Other times, the woman’s blood pressure shoots up dangerously 180/120, her eyes roll back, she convulsès.
That’s eclampsia.
We rush because a few more minutes could mean losing both mother and child. 😭

Or maybe, her uterus tears (rupture) while pushing, blood everywhere, pain unbearable, heartbeat disappears.
At that point, talking is a luxury. It’s race against time.

We’re not rushing because we enjoy doing surgery.
We rush because we want you alive to hold your baby. ❤️

So dear woman, if you ever find yourself in labour and the doctor says,
“Madam, we have to do emergency CS,”
please don’t panic or argue.
That decision might just be the reason you and your baby survive. 🙏

Your life matters.
Your baby’s life matters.
Trust the process, and trust your healthcare team.

She Delivered at Home Thinking It Was Safe 😢 But Her Baby Couldn’t Make It, That Is Why Every Woman Needs To Read This!

She was 39 weeks pregnant.
Her belly was big, she was excited.
She said, “Hospital too far, I can deliver at home.”
Family agreed, everything seemed fine.

Labour started.
Contractions were strong, baby’s heartbeat was slowing.
She pushed with all her strength but baby was not coming out.

By the time they reached the hospital…
It was too late.
Baby was gone. 💔

This is the harshh truth many mothers don’t know:

Even strong women can face compl!cations no one sees coming:
❌ Cord can wrap around baby’s neck
❌ Baby can get stuck
❌ Labour can stall
❌ Sudden bleeding can happen

Home delivery is r!sky, even if everything seems normal.

Dear pregnant woman:
Your life and your baby’s life are precious.
Delivery should happen where trained professionals can act within minutes if danger comes.

Every antenatal visit, every hospital delivery, every precaution counts.
No shortcut is worth losing your baby. ❤️

A successful C/s ,a bouncing baby boy mother alive baby alive

She kept waiting for the pain to pass.
She said, Maybe it’s just normal.

Her mother told her, That’s how labor starts, don’t rush to the hospital.

But by the time she came, the baby was tired…
and so was she.

We see it far too often.
A woman walks in pale, weak, exhausted.
Her contractions have been going on for too long.

Her water broke hours ago.
Her baby’s heartbeat, once strong and steady, now flickers faintly on the monitor.

In those moments, the theatre becomes a battlefield,
everyone moving fast,
one hand starting IV lines,
another preparing for intubation, the anesthetist checking vitals,
the surgeon scrubbing furiously.

The goal?
To save two lives in a race against time.

But sometimes… the time we needed has already passed.

Dear women, please listen to your bodies.

That sharp, persistent pain that doesn’t feel normal.
That sudden swelling, blurred vision, or headache.

That strange stillness when your baby stops moving.
Those are not signs of strength to endure.
They are cries for help.

Your body speaks through pain, through pressure, through stillness.
It is never weakness to respond.
It is wisdom.

Labor is not meant to be endured in silence.
And pregnancy complications don’t wait for daylight.

If you feel something unusual, go.
Don’t let anyone convince you to wait.
Because help delayed can mean hope denied.

In the theatre, when we lose a baby that could have been saved,
we don’t just feel sad,
we feel the weight of seconds that slipped away.

We see the mother’s tears,
and sometimes, silence so heavy you can’t breathe through it.

And in that silence, one truth stands tall….
delay turns emergencies into tragedies.
And no woman should have to pay with her life for waiting too long.

Don’t wait till it’s urgent, act when it’s unusual.

To every woman awaiting surgery this week…
I know your heart is beating faster than usual.

You’re trying to stay calm smiling at everyone, packing your baby’s bag, saying “I’m fine.”
But deep down, you’re scared.

Scared of the cold theatre.
Scared of the injection.
Scared of not waking up.

Take a deep breath, my dear.
You’re not alone.

There’s a whole team waiting for you, trained eyes watching every heartbeat, gentle hands ready to bring your baby safely into your arms.

And that anesthetist who says, “How are you?” every few minutes?
They’re not just talking.
They’re guarding your life.

Remember This….

A C-section doesn’t make you less of a woman.
It doesn’t mean your body failed.

It simply means God opened another door, a safer one, a wiser one, a chosen one.

Your scar is not shame.
It’s a seal of survival.
A reminder that you made it through what could have taken your breath away.

So as you walk into that theatre this week, walk with faith.

Hold your baby’s name in your heart and let peace fill the space where fear once sat.

You’re not being cut…
You’re being carried.

Say a word of prayer for them.

Will They Give Me Back My Bl00d?

(From the Theater)

Some surgical patients are a special breed.

They will say, I’m not donating bl00d oh! What if I don’t use it? Will they give me back my bl00d?

I always smile when I hear that. Because it shows how much people underestimate what can happen once the theatre doors close.

See ehn…
Having bl00d ready before your surgery is not a waste, it’s insurance.

It’s like carrying an umbrella before leaving home… not because you want rain, but because you know anything can happen.

Even if your PCV is 100%, my dear, never relax.
Because when it starts raining in the theatre, when bl00d pressure drops, a vessel tears, or bleeding refuses to stop…
it’s not your strong bl00d that saves you,
it’s the bl00d we already have waiting.

No anesthetist wants to call for bl00d when it’s already too late.
No surgeon wants to pause mid suture because bl00d never ready.

By the time the bl00d bank starts running helter skelter, you may already be halfway between life and loss.

That one pint you refused to donate or prepare could be the same pint your family will start begging for later when seconds matter.

So no, we won’t give you back your bl00d.
We will do something better…
we will help you keep the life inside it.

Because in the theatre, preparedness is not panic, it’s wisdom.

So next time your HCP says, Please, arrange bl00d before your surgery,
don’t argue, don’t delay.
Remember…. it’s not about wasting bl00d,
it’s about saving yours when the sudden rain star | Surgical Patients’ Advocate | Creating Awareness | Saving Lives

THE BITTER TRUTH ABOUT THOSE FIBROID SHRINKING CONCOCTIONS

They said, Just drink it morning and night it will melt your fibroid.
But they forgot to mention it might also melt your womb’s future

You will think it’s working because your tummy looks flatter…
Meanwhile, inside, your womb, bladder, and intestines are forming a committee meeting, sticking to each other like old friends who refuse to separate.

That’s called adhesion, and guess what?
It’s one of the major reasons why some women lose their womb during fibroid surgery.
The surgeon gets in there and can’t even find clean separation, everything is tangled like cooked spaghetti

Here’s the bitter truth…
Most of those fibroid clearing or herbal melting concoctions…

Don’t actually shrink fibroids, they just mask the symptoms for a while.
Cause pelvic adhesions, blocked tubes, and even organ damage.

Make eventual surgery riskier, with heavier bleeding and longer recovery.

Your womb is not a test tube.
Stop mixing roots, leaves, and mystery bottles because someone on Facebook swore it worked for their cousin’s neighbor.

If you truly want your fibroid gone…

Get a proper pelvic scan.
Know your fibroid type and size.
See a qualified gynecologist or surgeon.

Don’t trade temporary relief for permanent damage.
Because sometimes, the same miracle drink that promised to save your womb ends up being the reason the womb had to go.

Surgery remains the only solution
