Story time.


So, I want to share with y'all something that happened to me yesterday. Just thinking about it still gives me goosebumps of what might have been. Indeed God is good.

On Sunday evening,hubby took down the curtains in a fit of sudden energy ( to me,he was only showing himself cuz he is as lazy as f.uck ). He washed them and put them out to dry. Due to the harmattan, all, save one, was dry within three hours. Both of us were too lazy to go out that night to go bring in the last curtain,which was even strange to me cuz I never leave my stuff outside overnight,no matter what. Na so we leave am for line. I don already plan say I go blackmail am to help me bring it in right before he leaves for work.

Fast forward to yesterday's morning, I made his breakfast and felt the urgent urge to go and get the curtain. While he was still getting dressed, I walked outside. As I got closer to the cloth line, I heard a sound coming from hubby's car. I moved closer and traced the sound to his tire. Air was leaking out of his tire. I took what I came out for and went back inside. I alerted him on what I saw and he rushed out to check. When he came back,he told me someone had deliberately punctured his air valve to let out the air. He even saw the cover of the tube right beside the tire. I immediately went cold all over. My husband is someone that doesn't even check his car condition before jumping in to go to work. He just opens his car, starts it and fiam! He moves. He would have unsuspectingly entered his car, driven on his usual speed of 120km/h on the highway and had a serious accident. God forbid!

The scary thing is that the villain who did this timed it so well. It happened just before I came out,which is the usual time my hubby actually leaves for work. But yesterday, I started my wahala and delayed him.

My reason for sharing this, is that most times we assume our enemies are our family members,relatives or even colleagues at work. If something had happened to hubby,I would have been cursing my village people. But I had no idea someone who lives right in my compound means me and my family harm,to the extent of trying to kill my hubby physically.

Mamas, this is our most vulnerable time. That time when we go through the valley of the shadow of death to bring into this world a new life. Don't take anyone for granted. This is the time to go on your knees and pray hard cuz that smiling face who always ask of your welfare and baby's might just be wishing you harm. We should be alert physically and spiritually. The heart of man is desperately wicked. Up till now, I don't even have a suspect in mind.
Note that all this happened before 6:30am.

End of story.

These oyinbo people will not kill somebody.

I stumbled on a youtube video uploaded by babycenter on how to bath a newborn.

It says you shouldn't bath a baby more than once or twice a week. I also noticed the midwife didn't use soap, only a wash cloth to clean the baby in the tub with warm water and just shampoo for the baby's hair.
It says it is absolutely not necessary to use soap on a baby, but if you must, use a very mild soap.

I was even shocked that most of the commenters found nothing wrong in it..like its normal to them. One commenter even said bathing them more than twice a week can cause skin dryness and allergies early in life.. (duhhh!!)

These people are dirty IMHO! Gaddemit

On Sunday evening

mehnnnnn.. the heart of man is desperately wicked! Abi which kain wahala be this for this new year? This is a testimony ooo...you should forever be grateful to God.

The person's plan has failed..so he or she should be prepared to receive a dose of his own medicine in triple fold. I just thank God for sparing ur hubby..

Truly, we need to be very careful, vigilant and prayerful.

Thank you... my love to your princess

Anugod:

SSeriously o, who needs bweastmilk, comman collect oo

chai and look at me... my boy doesn’t like bottles anymore so now it’s mainly breast, I’m worried he isn’t getting enough I had to order lactation cookie to see if it wee rush oo... coman and dash me some Biko

Anugod:
Chai, my dear, I no know o. But I remember the first few weeks I was always drinking hot water. As in, real hot, throat scalding water o, taken in sips. Any liquid I drank must be hot, and I drank drums, as in, plenteous drums of hot water/liquid. I drank much more than I ate (but eat well sha o, so you won't go dizzy while breastfeeding). I had to stop the hot liquid when the flow was just too much. Now I maintain it by feeding her very well and as often as possible. We do exclusive, and feed every 1-2 hours when she's awake, and sometimes 3 or 4 hours if she sleeps that long. Just try the hot water first.

I'll give it a try
Just want my tips to heal properly 1st
Thanks ma'am

They are not dirty o!
When my sis gave birth, she was told that babies are born with a protective layer on their skin that nourished them in the womb (vernix or so, not sure), so she shouldn't be quick to wash it off.
Besides, I personally think we 'over bath' our babies. Baby wen no do any work, we de baff am 2 -3 times with sponge like farmer? Haba.
Only difference is our weather, if not ehn?

Mandysmum, may God continue to be our shield. Amen.
I had goosebumps reading the story.

Na wa..this story is really scary. I Will advise you guys move out as soon as you can. Someone that can do something like that which can result in death is desperately evil. You never can tell what the person will try again. Pls you guys need to move.

booqee:
i believe whether cold water or hot, once it enters the body, it changes to room temperature or the warm temperature of ur body so it doesn't affect ur baby. Before it reaches baby, the temperature would have changed. I'm not sure oo.. my doctor also says there's nothing there that i should keep taking it, if that the only kind of water i can drink. And trust me, nobody drinks CHILLED water reach me..chilled to the extent of having ice cubes in it.

There's nothing wrong with milo..though too much of it may cause you to have a big baby. In third trimester, u might wanna reduce milo intake. I learnt that from this thread and my MIL said the same thing. That lipton that aggravated my morning sickness and vomiting that time. i thought it would help my bitter mouth then...

Btw, i enjoy ur diary

Thank you so much ma'am, lemme continue enjoying my Milo and chilled water nigbayen.
I really appreciate May God make it easy for us.

Omolaadun000:

I enjoyed your diary oooooo In shaa Allah.... it shall be easy for us all

Thank God for all the curtain drama, and the delay.
If you have little children, please it's time to move out asap.
If you are expecting your first, you have time to watch for another sign...
Thanks for the reminder of trust no one.

lol that’s how they are oo, when I had my baby he was bathed only once. I was I. The hospital for 4 days and didn’t bath before we left. Plus that one day bath no soap oo, just water and na just wash 2 minutes and they are done lol

so it is for real?? Its a wonder they dont smell

Hmm that sounds reasonable sha..but overtime, nothing has happened to the african baby while growing up which is closely related to too much bathing.

Besides, I personally think we 'over bath' our babies. Baby wen no do any work, we de baff am 2 -3 times with sponge like farmer? Haba.
Only difference is our weather, if not ehn?

lmao at the bolded.. anyway i dont think i will be comfortable with waking up a new day and allow my baby to just pass a day without looking fresh from a good bath..our mothers will not even agree.. not after all the pee and poo. Cleaning their butt is simply not enough to me. At least baff once a day to feel fresh..

hunniesuzie:
Smelling people, when I told my mum she just looked at me with better side eye and continued using koinkoin to scrub my baby

as in ehnnn...our mothers can never ever agree to that nonsense
