Good evening mamas
I didn't want to bring this here but it's gotten to the point where I can't take it anymore. Pls how do you deal with an inlaw who does not help out around the house?

NOTE: he is one year older than me

Leave it for your husband to handle. In law matter is another story entirely

Thanks for your help ma.


1- An estimated price range
#150 at most ( what we can afford)
2- preferred location(mainland or island)
mainland or any
3- Number of rooms
: just a room and palour apartment
4- Estate gated community or open area : any

Any part of Lagos will be fine BGG

I bin type plenty but I no knw where e go. my cent is, I stay in Ibiye and houses their are cheap and very condusive. Am not in Lag now but if you are interested lemme know so I will tell dh to help me find vacancy for u(summary tinz).
@khaleesi sorry ma itz well. (thats my summary) are you sure itz not blighted ovum cuz thats mostly d reason for 12weeks miscarriage or did you do an early scan? did you eat anything say fruit, drink or any kinda food that might have initiated the bleeding? Another Hansel will come sooner than you expect.
June 2017 mamas plz we need prayers o, we have recorded 2losses alrdy if am not mistaken. peace!

150 room and parlour is nearly not possible if not impossible to see in lekki unless it's eputu/epe axis.

Ikorodu and badagry is your sure bet as it is.
Log on to tolet.com you will see many listings for that amount, goodluck and take care.

was just about to announce that our captain has gone AWOL again, other team has done their roll call since. maybe Na d hamathern too much, but no hamattern in dis part of lag I stay o.

went for a scan last week, baby is fine, pushes my stomach in different directions dis days and give funny shapes.

let me rant small, dh has been begging for a round of sex for some time nw, but I no gree, so last nite I sha decided to pity d guy, so we start, bt no touching of boobs o, it still feels sore since d first
trimester, as we were doing I was feeling all manner of discomfort, we tried different approach o, side, doggy, front still painful, after d whole show sha it seemed as if something dropped in my lower abdomen, lo self was doing all manner of acrobat and I started peeing every 10 mins, I was all shade of discomfort till sleep finally took over, me don warn dh nt to near me again till dis baby comes out, sorry for d long rant. I will make it short nxt time, lol.

jazzyjazz I dey gbadun ur contribution on d forum, and u do av a lovely face, say me well to ur mum too, I wish to be like her wen I grow up o.

Ehen! His own na wa o! You trying sha! Ignoring all those things me I cannot o! By now I would have showed him the door. My hubby know me I hate nonsense. Anyways, listen to hubby do the one you can and leave the rest. Or get those children that does any work dem full abuja wella make dem help.

He used to clean up when he used to visit before o! Mop, sweep and all! But suddenly stopped and I don't even know why. 


Sorry for the long rant jare. Na as the thing enter me reach

[quote author=jazzyjazz post


my sister no worry urself o, jus do the ones you can do and leave the rest abeg. it's not a function of in-law o, these our men in our society dey one kain jare. they jus get to a stage in life that they believe they've outgrown things like house chores. I'll give u an example, our last born lives with my husband and I. he's been staying with us right from when he finished university, he went to serve in Calabar and still lives with us after Nysc. he got a small paying job n was still with us until he was transferred to Ibadan. all those while he used to help with house chores on wkend n even help do laundry sef. later they transferred him from Ibadan to lagos and he's been staying with us again for almost 2yrs now. d only job he does when he doesn't travel on official duties is to iron my kids school uniform for the whole school week. I use the machine to do his laundry alongside mine n d kids because hubby takes his to d dry cleaners to reduce my workload. I do the cooking and all the cleaning alone but sometimes he helps. lately he's become so lazy that atleast 2wice in a week he leaves his plates in d sink after dinner and I end up washing it d next morning wen I wake up because i hate seeing plates in my sink. I've warned him over the weekend and told him that if I ever see it again, I'll bring it to his door post. last wkend I asked him to help me clean d sitting room because my baby is sitting very low in my pelvis and at 29weeks I literally feel my uterus on my thighs wen I walk so bending down is a huge problem for me. my brother slept and woke up very very late on Saturday den he went out n came back very late, so him no sweep d sitting room. on Sunday again he slept until almost noon only to come out n eat n went out n came back at night to iron the kids uniform, I no talk anytime. immediately everyone left yesterday morning I cleaned the whole house myself we live in a 4bed apartment with dinning n sitting room. he occupies the 4th room so I no even bother. I cleaned the 3 plus the sitting room, dinning and balcony. when he came back I now told him that I have cleaned my house by myself o, afterall if he doesn't live here I go find way to tidy my house. but make him begin get ready because if he was living in his own house e no go fit leave am make e dirty like dat. I told him I am giving him until middle of next year to find a place and move out of my house because i want to get a maid n i need d room he occupies for the maid. simple. afterall, e dey work na n him na big man since him no fit clean d house I need someone who can do it even if I have to pay. my point is, there's no assurance that even ur own sibling will be any different. I can't be doing everything for u and wen I ask u to do something that u'd have done ordinarily if u live in ur own house, u now begin to feel like u're doing me a favour. I wash ur clothes, cook for u everyday like say i be ur wife, I don't ask u for money to even cook for u so u get to save alot of money n jus to clean the sitting room and iron my kids uniforms for weekend u dey misbehave abi? I think our men are jus naturally lazy people excluding a very selected few. even my hubby sef,him own laziness na A+, instead of him to sweep d dirty on d floor he'll use his leg to push dem under the chairs. oya beat that na. lolz! my dear no kill urself jare, do what u can n leave d rest jare. jus concentrate on ur father in-law make d uncle sort himself out abeg. no time to stress.

Pls add us, Edd is June 19

Heeyy.. Welcome teamie. You can add Pregnacare Original to the Folic acid and vitamin b12. Your symptoms are same as mine as we are in the same period. Dont worry, we shall soon overcome

tetwa2:
Hello house member

Please what do i use; am 6 weeks gone but feel tired; have this bitter taste in the mouth; and feel dizzy at times; i only use supplements which contains vitamins b12 and folic acids; please advice.

Which brand of folic acid are you taking, aside pregnacare?

@jazzyjazz,
In-laws are very sensitive people and one needs to thread softly, before they will say you are treating him bad because he is staying with you.
I also have my brother in law living with us and am even like a year older (I don't think he knows cos I have a very young face). Till date, we have never had any quarrel. If i am uncomfortable with a particular situation, I only tell DH. He can't stay with us forever. I do all my chores myself (I grew up in the midst of boys and am used to it). Work has also helped me, we are mostly not at home (me and TH @ work and Baby at Creche)
Please do the chores you can and leave the rest. He won't be with you guys forever. I know how you feel though, things like that can be annoying.

My able Team mama, God will give you double for your loss, I went thru it January. But his word was my comfort. God us with you.

khaleesi:
Thanks everyone for your kind words and Amen to all of your prayers. God knows best.

Puritan Pride. Its about 100 tablets for 1500

sorry its 250 tablets in the folic acid. Its the calcium that's 100 tablets CC burticious

]@ spiceeamiee.Your post drew me out of my shell. I am quite social media shy.
Well, deep breath, let's do this.
Hello everyone, I am in Team April. I catch up quite a bit on this threadand its really enjoyable to share in your joys and though its also sad sometimes as well. Gods comfort @ Khalessi. God is our strength in all.

Now, About 'to whom and when does one share the info about being preggers' ?. It caused me quite some dilemma as well. Only a very few of my friends told me when they got pregnant, but from most of those I felt were close buddies, I heard when the LO landed. I kind of understood. Now its my turn being naturally reserved,. I struggled also to share, lol even with the few who did. I and my hubby agreed to tell no one at all because telling the people who were ''closest'' meant telling quite a number of people and excluding some others. Like someone said, you might be someone's close friend but that same person doesn't make your top 5.

I have a friend who kept pressuring me early in marriage as to whether 'it haf enter'. Honestly found it annoying and when it finally did, she was really the last to know. Had to tell when I started showing.

Now I am over talking..or typing..lol. Point is do try your best to cover your friend with grace, sounds like she is the emotional type and you are more logical. She will come around. Its nice to have someone around to share your journey with too.
Finally as per who to or not to tell...i think the choice is ultimately the couple's.

Enjoy the baby trip.

@first pregnancy,based on your specifications, you might have to opt for ikorodu. How about your husband's office? Is that been taken into consideration?

his work place is at dopemu

jazzyjazz:
Cc soonest

Nana228, since you react to chloroquine, amodiaquine is another safe alternative. Amodiaquine with the amoxil you are taking should do the trick.

@jazzyjazz, no mind that your BIL u hear. It's only a matter of time. Just do only what you can do. Cheers

Present team captain @ itissettled3. Thanks for the roll call and amen to the prayers. You are doing a good work dear. God bless you.
We are 29weeks plus and doing great. Some of the first trimester symptoms are gradually coming back. I practically force myself to eat these days due to anorexia, always weak and feeling nauseous. But in all, I bless the name of the Lord for the journey so far. We are gradually moving to the permanent site and we will all carry our bundles of joy alive and healthy. EDD is 19 Feb and gender is xy.
Other feb mamas I hail you all.

If his place of work is at dopemu then you should be looking at Ipaja/ Egbeda areas and you should get for 150 excluding agency and agreement

Thanks

firstpregnancy:

OK, like nwarosa said , cos of your husband's office , you can look in that area so he doesn't end up spending so much on transport/ reduce the driving stress.

Hi mama are you anorexic? How do you manage it with Pregnancy? Did it start before you got pregnant or when you got pregnant?
Someone close to me is at the risk of losing her baby or having her deformed due to her refusal to eat
