i cant tell how much addiction i hv for bump love am an expecting mom for the first time and am really preparing myself now for motherhood and bump love has really been helpful.big up ladies
I really like what Angie said at the end there about how our communities can be leveraged for public health goals. I didn't have any home visit from a medical professional, but all the things the aunties told me turned out to be medically sound once I tested them and researched. Like omukazi ayoonsa tareega... I first got plugged ducts before I appreciated that this advice was right. And read it in a la leche league book. Actually groups like that league show that communal support is perhaps more effective than doctors who might not even be able to give you all the time and support you need.
I think there should be great emphasis on counselling/ emotional support for first time mothers because sometimes suicidal thoughts start to develop after the baby has arrived especially like in the first 3-4days! Then our healthcare providers especially these nurses in our Ugandan health facilities should be taught how to communicate certain critical information to first time mothers. like you can not just tell off a first time mother who is in hospital alone that "your baby has a heart issue, we need to book him for an emergency check up at heart institute". I feel like they should always share such information with the Doctors before they choose to take it upon themselves to break such news yet sometimes they are not sure!
Oooh how I love this topic Am abroad was alone with hubby my sister in law and family visited and I got help My problem was friends that popped in to comment on baby and sitting around waiting to be served instead on helping themselves coz clearly there was no nanny hubby went to work three days post birth it wasn't easy being a new tired mom. Mind u my mom passed wen I was a child so had no personal person to give me info. Eeeee. Thank u lord I crossed that river. Atleast hubby helped
Some discussions are so underrated until you can relate. Having crossed to the better part of being a woman, it got me thinking about our young girls who haven't had kids yet, is there a way such information could reach them? Just for preparation purposes? In all honesty, I got to hear about the work 'okunyiga' about three days when I had already come back from the hospital, and it was through a workmate who happened to pass by. Let's do it for those coming after us.
Well said lady in white. Enourage the new mothers to use the Resources ( the elderies and good friends) they have in combination with available medical resources.
I know this fear all too well. Enlist a support system of family and friends. Dont be shy to directly seek them out. Buy a pump and do pump so that you can buy yourself a few hours of rest and self-care. Please whatever time off from the baby you can afford and dont be too hard on yourself. These will help you enjoy your baby and adjust slowly All the best, and may God send complete joy your way🤗🤗🤗 Motherhood gets beautiful and is ENJOYABLE...eventually😁

Thanks to you we now know we should get postnatal care at a tender age
