After your first pregnancy or miscarriage you need to check your rhesus factor. If you are negative and baby is positive you need anti D or Rhogam . This prevents your subsequent pregnancies from complications and possible miscarriages due to incompatibility. Always make sure you check at the hospital if its your first pregnancy or first abortion. Its also needed after a miscarriage if you are rhesus negative.
Let me add that if both father and mother are rhesus negative there is no need for the anti D. Its important for both partners to know their rhesus factor
Speak to your doctor or midwife About your Rhesus factor

This is one of the most difficult conditions that occur during pregnancy.
Its believed to be caused by increasing level of human Chorionic Gonadotropic Hormone. (HCG)
It is characterised by severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy. You may vomit more than four times a day, become dehydrated, feel constantly dizzy and lightheaded and lose weight
The woman vomits every food and water she takes
She may not even be able to stand smell of food
This situation can be really difficult.
It is different from morning sickness as the woman can use little things like food, mint etc to control morning sickness. She may even be able to eat later in the day. It also stops by 12 weeks
This condition is not supposed to be managed at at home as it can lead to serious complications
The woman will need fluid replacement therapy with intravenous infusions, some medications to reduce the vomiting and if there is an underlying condition it will be treated.
It may reduce by 16 to 20 weeks but some unfortunately will have to manage the condition till delivery.
There is treatment and it can be managed. Don’t stay home if you have been vomiting for several times in a day and nothing stay down there
Have you ever experienced this? How were you managed?

Please my name is Angela, and I have a child, which is about 11 months old, but recently my tummy grew a little big, and I thought it was belly fat, so I didn’t pay attention to it.
But just this Tuesday, I was experiencing, some abdominal pains, like labor, and yes it was labor, my husband helped me in the house to deliver, because I didn’t know, I was pregnant, and didn’t go to ante-natal, so I delivered in the house ,and the baby is fine, but small.
My 11- month- old baby was breastfeeding, while this baby came, and I didn’t have any signs of pregnancy like, vomiting and so on, all of a sudden just this Tuesday I delivered, pls want u to help me.
Sally… Well I didn’t believe it. Thought it was one of those scammers. I decided to meet them at the hospital and it was so true.
I have heard in foreign news how people never knew they were pregnant but went into labor and delivered.
Wow, as I interviewed her she said she felt so well, never got sick only realized her abdomen was growing a little big.
Her question to me was :How is this possible?
Fact: For some women’s fertility can resume six weeks after birth. Also know that ovulation occurs before your menses.
So whilst you are thinking your menses hasn’t resumed so you can’t get pregnant, you can have surprises if you are very fertile.
I recommend taking a form of family planning at six weeks if you want to space your children. Lactational amenorrhea does not work for everyone!!!
She was breastfeeding! She practiced exclusive breastfeeding but she got pregnant! It doesn’t work for everyone! If you have no experience and are not sure how your body works, just take a form of family planning till your menses resume and make an informed decision.
Baby is being seen at the hospital! We wish her speedy recovery!
Midwife who saw her was shocked and exclaimed : “This baby was born to Live. Surviving without antenatal, Nicu care and all that”
