larryUG: You guys are misleading people... Kai! 1 million for what? If you are rich, you can go for luxury but don't advise a basic earner to have the same budget as you. A good woman will use 400k judiciously and have extra for savings. Baby stuffs are not as expensive as you are projecting. Make out time to go to big markets where resellers buy from. 1 Like |

Valoromega: 100K is more than enough to buy the basic things that are needed for the baby. They have turned you to format. Hospitals usually give them a list of the basic things they need to buy and bring to the hospital. Please get the list from her or the hospital and go to the market yourself to buy them. When you get home, tell her they are gifts from a friend or your boss. |

bigtt76:No be push money abeg, if you don born piking before u no go talk like this. That 400k is enough to buy everything they need. Last year November me and my wife spent #380k to buy all what we need for our baby. Na because say his wife know say her husband get money that is why she spent the money lavishly. How person go go market to shop for baby things without having a list of what she needs. Those market women will just be telling her that your baby will need this will need that. |

honour7:With most of the comment on the front page. including the ones i am quoting. it shows you should never bring your family matter to Nairaland, because there so any kids and so many broke people over here who do not know anything about running a home. a lot are still in their father's house that is why they are talking rubbish. my friend in 2017 i spent over that amount you are quoting for baby essentials and i did not even buy baby bed. talk more of now when thing are over 3 times their normal value. if you want to buy essentials for first time baby with the current value of the naira you should be looking at over 1 million naira. naira is currently a worthless currency. if you are doubting your wife, why don't you go to the market yourself. For your info Nan 1 that use to be like 2K in 2019 is now 6K in 2024. SMA Gold baby food that use to be just 3k is now about 9K. so you know. Gadafii:So for your mind 400k is enough to train a child till he becomes an adult abi. most Nairalanders are just broke fellow. sha. |

Re: My Wife And 1 Are Expecting Our First Child And This Is What Is Happening by Lovelydaisies: 10:00pm On Jan 11 |
Guy, if your wife attends antenatal sessions, let her ask for the list now she still has some time. It will cover for what the baby, hospital and mother need for delivery and post delivery. Mine cost about 28k based on location sha. Then you can add baby bed (which the baby may start disliking from one month sef and you end up dashing), baby drawer,baby sponge or just towel, baby clothes, whether okrika or designers from 0-6 months and you keep updating like that, baby care products like lotions, creams, oils, combs, socks, blankets, mosquito net, baby milk (just in case), manual breast pump (not sure of the current price but as from 10k), baby bathtub, bucket (they come in a set), feeding bottles and stick sponge. Let me stop here. Act fast and now. After two months, you'll assess yourself and see how much waste you made and how far you have gone. Experience will teach you better. Addendum Her mother being there is a plus for both of you. She'll help with everything from chores to labour through delivery and post-delivery. Just make sure to be judicious with your spending, make e no be like say in-law dey chop your money. My mom was around for a week before my second baby last month. She was a great help! |

So pe otilo... Owo wogbo. Money don vamose. Naming nkoo? When my wife was pregnant with our first baby, I personally went to the market to buy baby things worth 30k in 2001. Flask, feeding bottles, diapers, powder, soaps, cottin wool, cream, dresses, etc. Some materials were for new baby, Some dresses were for 1,2,3,4 months. And we really have rest of mind. You and your wife ought to go and scout for these things. Kontri hard ooo to waste 400k plus like that. Valoromega: |

Maybe you bought unnecessary things sha… I know buying baby stuff is continuous but at the initial just buy what you need, the most basic need |

I always believe in this mantra "if you want anything done well do it yourself ". God forbid I marry a woman that doesn't know how to manage money prudently, but even if I do, I'll give her money to buy things needed. if she doesn't, I'll go and buy the basic essential items any other stuff she ask no concern me |

Well you've to be patience and also be observabtm patience in sense to know if you trust your wife or maybe the influence and presence of her mum has made her change and conversant in the sense of the high cost of things in the country. Don't over react inside take charge as a man. Firstly work wnr communicate with your wife everything they need by writing it out in a list of sheet then select what you should buy first and if there's change she can go for others. Also find out things for yourself maybe a weekend go out with her to get the stuff that way you'll know if the first money was enough or not enough but either way, respect,love and support your wife bcus she's going thru a lot and all she needs is your support so give it to her and do it smartly. Thanks you |
