Thank God for safe delivery, even though it was CS everything went successful.

So my mum came around for Omugwo first and ever since my wife had been having issues with her. it got to the extent my wife pulled a knife on my mum and I, she even fought my mum before she left.

So her mum now came around for Omugwo also and I have not been giving her face even despite she has apologised with my wife also and even her Dad. But I'm still finding it difficult to forgive her don't know why.

So her mum can come for omugo abi? If you don't want thunder fire you, don't allow her mum too to come for omugo period.

Have you considered the fact that your wife might be going or might've gone through postpartum depression, which might've led to that behaviour?

Were she and your mum having problems before your wife got pregnant and had a baby?

N.B. Postpartum depression is not an excuse for bad behaviour, it is real.

Omigwo wasn't invented by poor people, it has been the way and custom of almost every Africans.

It okay not to do certain things, but do you have to downgrade a practice that has helped lots of family?

Vickyvice:
my brother forget this omugwo yeye philosophy wey poor people invent. My sisters are married and given birth, but my mum no go. She just arrange baby accessories,,, clothes, toys, and their soaps, powder, foods and fill their kitchen with assorted foods, by waybill them abroad,. What's omugwo? Na low mentality slang. Like say we be low grade family, na so my mum go mumu leave her lecturing work wey she even dey look for more time to conclude research, dey urge to go abroad for omugwo, as if she's the first mother in law in d world, or na she be the first grandmum on earth, I hate to hear this useless term,,, omugwo. Africa and their useless mentality. It's is devised to attempt control the husband.

Except there's any other reason you are not telling us, then I suggest you let your wife's mother go so that you and your wife and the new baby can have some time alone as a family. Before this whole thing I believe you must have been living peacefully with your wife therefore whatever happened between her and your mother shouldn't be a yardstick to coming online to for people to paint her as trash.

Kobojunkie:
I don't understand understand the tradition at all but I do realize that some women need help of other women especially after her first birth or maybe in situation where depression or some other illness keeps her from being able to properly care for herself and her husband is unable to take time off to care for her..

Kobojunkie:
Can you be a bit less cryptic abeg. Giving us random bits of what transpired after the major quarrel will not help you or us any.

What led to your wife threatening your life?

Why do you in return insist you will deal with her after all the pleading?

slimjohn2k5:
The best person to come for omugwo is from wife's family unless they are not available.

Moreover, do not take it against her as the person above me have told you she may be suffering from
postpartum depression.

Despite that please let her own people come first

Truvelisback:
Forgive ur wife. I begining to suspect that u didn't handle the issue btw ur wife and ur mum well. Perhaps, u were one sided in ur judgement, which is very bad.

Ebelelivinston:
I stay with my elder brother and his wife gave birth last 2 years,my mum came because her mum had already come for the first child,the way my brother's wife treated my mum,I haven't forgiven myself for not standing for my mum because then I was in school and any beef with my brother's wife,he could convince my elder brother to stop paying my school fees.Her mum came last year and everyone was happy with her including me,now,I hate my brother's wife with passion but she doesn't no.Am now a graduate waiting for the right time to deal with her for making my mom look like a stranger in her son's house

Justkatty:
What are you saying? He should aswell chase his mother inlaw? Two wrongs can't make a right, She has said sorry..so I don't see any reason for dragging same issue.

No dey talk wetin you no know. If you no understand, ask!

Wetin you think say omugwo be for? Vacation?
You think say na about food, and toys, and echetara'm na echetara'm?

Omugwo for Igbo land na to help woman wey just born pikin.

Help her with what? My neighbor for compound (2 of them) don born and I know see their mothers around.
To help her with herself and the baby, until she's strong enough to handle things herself.

Simran94:

Yeah but Igbo people do and I think hausa too not sure. My cousins mother was the one who went when she just gave birth and she and her husband are yoruba. I think it just depends on the women sha

BusinessDream:
Bros, no need talking too much on this matter. what you should be asking IS how he opened his two eyes and married someone that can pull knife on his mother.

All these stupid nonsense are annoying. Wherever he picked that woman from is entirely his fault.

HRSweetness:


Because her own mother would be more sensitive to her post partum induced tantrums and treat her with love and the extra care she needs right now.
