Hello, beautiful people! Welcome to my blog. It's a pleasure to have you in this space. Once again, welcome š¤
Yesterday, I took my 6-month-old son for his immunization. On arrival, I ran into a lady I attended an antenatal class with and with whom we also gave birth to our babies a few days apart.
As we were exchanging pleasantries, my excitement quickly turned to surprise, shock, and concern when I noticed she was already pregnant again.
If it was a month or two pregnant, I wouldn't have noticed it because it wouldn't have been that visible. She should probably be around three months gone.

And I kept wondering why she would allow herself to get pregnant this early.
My worry was because her previous delivery was via a cesarean section. I kept worrying about her well-being and wondering how she was feeling.
During our antenatal classes, the nurses and midwives kept emphasizing the importance of postpartum rest and recovering.
They advised women that would give birth vaginally to stay away from sex for at least six weeks, while those that would give birth through a cesarean section were advised to wait for at least three months before resuming sex and sixteen months before taking it again.
Seriously, women need to prioritize their health and general well-being.
A lady that was admitted in the same room with me when I gave birth almost lost her life during a cesarian section surgery.
I later found out that she had a son that was not up to a year old that she gave birth to through a cesarean section, and there she was again going through another surgery without allowing herself to heal completely.
I know every woman's delivery experience and choices are different and unique. Perhaps she planned the pregnancy, or maybe it was an unexpected mistake. Either way, I hope is going well emotionally and mentally.
In all, ladies, let's learn to prioritize our well-being first.
THANK YOU FOR READING TO THE END š¤

Prioritizing our well being is one important thing every woman should look out for, because the man won't be there to take care of the child for us. We do the major work in raising a child.
The delivery process is one tough experience... Even recovery process takes losts of time. My son is four months old but I still feel slight pains when I stretch my legs. Having another child when am not fully recovered will definitely affect me, my child and my job.
Thank you for sharing this post š
I wish some women will take their well being seriously, we are the ones that goes through the pain not men. So women should make the major decision went it comes to their body
So true š

Wow, the truth is that the information you have shared has shocked me a lot, especially because I didn't know the rest time before recommending to have another child, in itself a birth is already a critical situation that involves a lot of danger, I can't even imagine this situation, I almost feel stressed myself hahaha.
Yes, your body needs rest and time to heal and recover after delivery before your next conception. So it is advised to wait at least 15 months before planning for the next baby.
Thank you for stopping by.
Hmm, this issue as controversial as it is ehn my mouth will not close o.
I am an advocate for women health in the sense that I let women know that protecting their life and health matters. God forbid that something happens and a woman loses her life in the delivery ward, the man will not hesitate to take up a new wife.
Women who hurry up pregnancies or who fall pregnant while still having an infant to take care of are endangering their lives.
A woman should be wise even though the man is sexually active. She can discuss with a doctor on good family planning methods to do and help herself.
I feel so sad anytime I hear of a pregnant woman's death especially when it is not the fault of the hospital personnel's.
It's a common thing here in the north to see a woman pregnant with a two month old baby. When you talk to them about family planning they will tell you their husbands don't approve of it
Must their husbands approve of it, for it to be right?
This kind of mentality is not sound at all and it shows subjugation. A wise man who wants the best for his wife will not allow her to fall pregnant with another child while a two month old infant is still there.
The emotional, physical and mental strain of the first pregnancy is already worthy of note to not make such silly mistakes.
My own is to talk, the wise listen and take heed.
Abi oo. Find rest my dear friend
