Is It Advisable For Two Mother-in-laws To Stay In The Same House? by callola: 7:16pm On Mar 12, 2015
my cousin will put to birth soon, since it is her first child and also her mom first grandchild. Should her mother come for omugwo considering the fact that she is living with her husband, mil and sil in the same house. Can the two women stay in the house for three months? When a woman comes for omugwo she is expected to take over the entire house. Though, i told her mom not to go but its like i want to put sand in her garri. Pls nlers ur opinon

They should take turns. No use having two old mama dragging their feet around the house.

There is nothing wrong with the two mother in-laws staying together with the couple but again it also has to do wiith the relationship between the two mother. That this I mean how close the two mothers are. I have seen a family were the both mothers stay with the couple & they are leaving in peace.

Why will a man live with his mother, sister and wife in the same house for Goodness' sake.
Since camping extended family members is the norm in that house, Mama could as well join them too. I see no wrong in it...





Let me not see them on nairaland with wahala for us to advice oh... my koboko is waiting for them.

Honestly, i don't know why a man would want to subject his wife to such kind of mental stress. If his mother and sister do not have a place to stay, he should rent an apartment for them abeg. Somebody will marry and cannot enjoy her husband. Na wa oh!

imo, i will advice my mum to stay for one or two weeks to avoid wahala. Having two women in one house and in one kitchen is not advisable

that is where the problem is coming from. She told me that she is not comfortable living in the same house with her in laws but her hubby sees nothing wrong with it. That they are the only family he have and can't do without them that i should try and convince her mom not to come but mama refused

Have you considered he may not be able to afford alternative accommodation

I'm sure there are other existing family members. They can rotate abeg. If you must get married, then provisions should be made for such instances. If mama is sick and needs special attention, I can understand. But packing your things and comfortable living with a newly married couple is what I do not understand.
Let the girls mother come and join them. Let her even stay the whole year

that's a selfish man. You better advice him to invite his wife's mother by himself. It is her right to do omugo for her daughter while she is still alife.

i really feel for her. As it is now, i don't think there is anything she can do embarassed than to get used to the situation. Some mothers should be reasonable enough not to stay in their sons house when he is married. Since he can't do without them, renting a house in the same city would have been the best.

I'm not living with them. Even op doesn't know the whole truth. People tell you only what they want you to hear. My assumptions are based on what op heard and shared with us.


Thank you

Your cousin sef try sha! I can't live under such arrangement abeg. He should have arranged an alternative accommodation for mama and SIL before bringing a wife home. So much for privacy in marriage!

Since she agreed to the arrangement in the first place, let the MIL do the omugwo because there will be heavy beefing and the SIL will support her mum. As for your cousin, she may have to choose between her mum and her marriage in the long run. Best of luck to her.
