BeeBlossoms:
I have one issue I need advice about, I don't like house guests, as a matter of fact, when you have spent up to 3 days in my house, I am tired of you already, and I don't like being an house guest either, o stay in my house as much as possible. Now, since I got married, my husband's brothers will come and just stay, and the very annoying thing is that they are very lazy, will pile up plates, leave the personal toilet and bathrooms in the rooms they use very dirty, room always unswept, they have never tried to even say "lemme sweep the sitting room sef", not even once, how do I handle this...I am yoruba

Do not ask them yourself to clean up or do any errands. It won't end well and it might lead to strife between you and your inlaws.

Ask your husband to talk to them and if he refuses, you either continue cleaning cheerfully or you ask your husband to do it or you hire a live-out maid to help out.

@ma'am ozycy and omojudy, gone are the days when enkay and her crew used to buy plenty trouble. It would have been another case of Mr hau.te

Every woman's body is wired differently.....I never had any nausea, vomiting or spitting, or morning sickness from 1st trimester till date. I had slight headaches a few times but that happened when i stress myself.

We all have different pregnancy packages, MS or no MS doesn't make you less of a woman. Regardless of whatever symptoms you have, just find a way to handle it, knowing that it's just for a while and once u put to bed, ur system gets back to normal.

My ex would say, there is a way you can tell someone to go to hell and they will long for the trip.

Beebloosoms me and you be twins for this one. I don't like anyone in my space at all! But like omojudy said, dating period is when you make your rules and agree on things you can both compromise on. Thankfully my dh is almost like me and we spent our first year of marriage in a one bedroom apartment just so we can tell people ' awwww we don't have space' when they ask to come 'visit'.
Back to you, alphahandmaiden has given you great tips. But I still believe you should involve your dh too. Tell him you need to hire someone that would come clean the house weekly and if he asks why, tell him. You are pregnant and shouldn't be stressing yourself too much.

Salt ke?? Ha! Its sugar o. One cube of St Louis sugar inside palm oil and you lick it. It works for mild cough. But if its very serious, you'll need something stronger.
Zaynie recommemded it for our little ones.

Me I don't also like visitors, we lived in a one bedroom too when we got married and we didn't have live in visitors except when mumsi came for Omugwo, right now we reach like 13 live in human beings in my house (me hubby kids inclusive) . Sometimes we don't always get things the way we want it.

@uglyBetty1 Its palm oil and a cube of st. Louis sugar, mix into a paste and take.

Bobo says thanks to all the senior mamas that said a prayer, like and even made a complement. We thank God for mummy, she is really taking good care of me. Regards to other cuties.


Thumbs up to the TeamMay mamas that came today, it was so good seeing our lovely babies. May God bless and strengthen you all.


To the other lovely cuties, we hope to be like you when we grow up. More grace to your mamas.

Mothers in the house, greetings.... its been a while. Been a bit busy, and met Christmas holidays traffic to my home town when I came back.....this thread runs like Casta Semenya at the olympics CHAI!

A big fat welcome to the newest waddling mamas in the thread, enjoy your pregnancy and make use of this thread.

July and August Mamas have been offloading back to back, to God be the glory for our babies, its not by power nor might but by God's spirit at work within us.

Someone inspired me to download c/s video on youtube, DH has been on my case that its almost four months, I went home and came back I am still giving him excuses. (We tried and I felt like I've just lost my virginity and it was very uncomfortable. And honestly I am so not ready to do it again, don't know if I will ever be.) So the video was to get him off my back. After watching, he looked at me and apologised, he said he understands and will just wait for me, he doesn't want to put me through another c/s. My incision still hurts, sometimes with unbearable back pain and at the hospital they told me its because its the second c/s so it will take time to heal.....how long does it take really? the first c/s didn't bother me at all.

Raptor2 and the mamas who lost their LOs, it is well, God has wiped all our tears, we are called mothers again, we have sleepless nights not because of anguish and despair but because we are happy to be awake and tending to our babies. I remember when my boy died, I thought maybe I wasn't a Christian enough, maybe I didn't love him enough or maybe because so many things lol, but with my daughter I have learned to speak life into her life and above all, leave everything in God's loving hands. Him alone knows everything.

Titilayo decided to say hi to everyone, though it's coming late.

Tanx ma'am, will do d scan tomorrow. God bless u.

mitchyy:
So yesterday, out of boredom, while taking a look at my incision with a small mirror, i decided to inspect my vjay.
I haven't taken a look at it since i got married and my God, the difference shocked me. Chai!

The place is just totally open as if dem drill hole inside. I couldnt even recognize my vjay anymore.
I'm just imagining how it would have looked if baby had passed through. The things women's body go through sha. Lol

Sorry for corrupting our thread cuties *covers face*

This thing you mentioned reminds me of what my DH said some days back. While taking a very good look at my hoohaa, he said it's now wider than before. And I've not even delivered o, I haven't had the gut to look at it with a mirror since he said it. My only consolation is that he said it's still tight. It's not easy to be a woman

and all that dont have MS

I didn't have MS at all. Infact I don't even know what it means. The only thing I had was metallic taste in my mouth and it went after some time. No cravings, no spitting uptill now self.

Please mamas, for those that have older children, how do you train them without beating/flogging them with cane? I almost ran mad on Monday and even yesterday,.

My 21 months old son is stressing us here.
From sitting on stabilizer to jumping on usp, dragging extension wire, climbing chair head and trying to turn over the chair with head facing down. Sometimes, he climbs on the chair top. Fly from center table to chair or from my bed to his'.

Keep changing channels on television. (No remote again because he spoilt it, he has even spoilt one DVD player), putting cd in DVD player that has cd inside already.

Standing on top of baby's drawer, removing one of the drawers, turn the clothes on the floor and use it as drum. Climbing windows, pushing plastic chair upandan.

Try to get into the 'Johnny walker' where his brother is. Biting, pinching and dragging my hair and many more.

If it's beat, I'm already tired of beating him. Dh said I'm abusing him

I used a word out of annoyance 'I will march your head against the wall' since then, before I will say anything, Dh will just say the word and it makes me feel bad. He always mock me with the word and say I'm worst that all those househelp that maltreat children.

Dh says I shout like a mad person. These few weeks that he is always home, him too don dey hearam. He was shouting the other day 'leave there, that's electricity, it's dangerous' Kaka didn't even answer,. I laughed so hard. I just told him 'na so madness dey start'

My questions
Is it that he is to young to understand what I'm saying or he is just been stubborn.. ?

Thanks
