Whois:
I will repeat the same thing someone above suggested, sleep in a different room since your MIL is there to assist your wife and new born and please insist on exclusive breastfeeding, she MUST give breast milk maximum of 3hrs intervals, and tell her to have eyes contact with the baby so the baby can quickly become sharp to the new environment so the cries will reduce. Check the chat I uploaded about babies from 0 to 12 months. The knowledge I learnt from youtube as a New dad like you is what I summarized to you. We'll survive.

Thanks so much for the chat... it's very insightful...

Thanks to everyone I really appreciate your inputs...God bless you all...@jennyclay, mariangeles, NoToPile, baby124, Gift96, zubimete, ibechris

Ifyjos:
Its normal ooo jux be calming down.

Okay Ma'am...

Esthered:
I think you should sleep in the settee in the parlour. You would be far from the cries to an extent but you must ensure that that you check up on them when you wake up to use the restroom or find it difficult to fall asleep after waking up and lending a helping hand where necessary.
My son still wakes up at night to feed but it used to be like 3 times before daybreak till 7 weeks but it has reduced to once or twice. Just be patient.

Thank you very much...

Quite helpful... Thanks

thorpido:
You should ignore the cry,your wife will deal with it.
When will he revert to normal sleep cycle?................mooooonths.

Okay Sir... Thanks...

Esthered:
Just as advised above, you can try and send them to your MIL or your mum whoever is nearer.
I left Benin to be with my mum in Lagos on the 12th day after delivery so that I wouldn't be alone as my husband was already falling sick due to the stress.

MIL is around... most times wifey and baby are in her room but once I wake up that's the end of sleeping that night...I don't really blame your hubby o...the headache I feel during the day now is crazy...

thorpido:
Lol,welcome to fatherhood and parenthood.
You can't change his sleeping pattern.He will do that as he gets older which is much later.
Babies are more nocturnal when born.

Since you go to work and I believe your wife is on maternity leave and you also spoke about your MIL(is she with you),leave the night nursing for them.
Start sleeping in another room or the sitting room.

Lol....Yea wifey is on mat leave and MIL is around...The issue is that he cries whenever he wakes up to feed and once I hear that cry I won't sleep again till morning...Nawa o ... please at what age will he revert back to normal sleep cycle? It's really not easy being a father....

Hello wonderful Nairalanders... Please I'll need advise from experienced parents. God blessed my family two weeks ago with a wonderful baby. But here's my little challenge, the baby prefers sleeping all through the day and doesn't sleep for long at night waking us up every 2 hours or thereabout. My MIL said it's normal but this lack of sleep is affecting my work and my sharpness during the day... Please is there anyway we can change his sleep cycle and make him sleep more at night instead of during the day...We are new parents please...

HajiTooMuch:
I only spoke for Statistics.
We had lecture yesterday, and today.
And all our lectures for tomorrow will hold too according to the lecturers in charge.

So yea, in Statistics classes have started.

Please do you know if MBA have started classes?

Fafali2705:
Please what next after we have seen recommend

I don't understand what you mean by "recommend"

I didn't receive any text message but I logged in my details and found out that I have been offered admission. Please don't wait for Text message to confirm your admission status....

I wanted Ignoring you when I saw the F-word but I'll reply nonetheless.

This is my personal experience; I finished NYSC in 2015. I served in Delta State. Immediately after my NYSC I relocated to Lagos to live with my Aunt with a total savings of about 200-300k then. My Dad was against the idea, my Mum was of the opinion that I'll be bothering her poor sister with my upkeep and all. But then I told my Aunt not to bother about feeding me, I just wanted a place I'll be resting my tired bones after the day's work. Because my family didn't support my movement I didn't bother coming home after NYSC. I traveled straight to Lagos with a resolve to succeed. On getting to Lagos I called up some of my classmates who stay with their parents in Lagos but none of them was forthcoming. Excuses everywhere, naso I enter street. This was my first time in Lagos. I trekked out my shoe alignment in search of jobs and doing all sorts of menial jobs to get my daily feeding money. God's favour found me when one of the places I submitted my CV called me for an interview...The rest is history as I am currently a regional sales manager with one of the top companies in the country.

My advice;
1.Don't rent an apartment in Lagos yet it's pretty expensive. Try to reach out to friends and family friends and relations to get where you can stay for free without becoming a burden to your host.

2. When you come to Lagos be focused...!!! There's too much fun and owambe in Lagos. It can derail your ambitions if you are the too much fun loving type.

3. Lagos is stressful, be mentally ready to succeed at all cost. You might have to start small. I started in a biscuit factory where my daily pay then was 700 naira then.

4. Be humble, you can meet your helper anywhere. I sense a bit of arrogance in your writing and replies.

5. Be street smart...Lagos is LAGOS.

I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST...No PMs please...See you at the top...

Goke7:
If every region start showing churches and schools in their region, will this forum contain all of us?

This is what is deceiving these people that they are the best and first. Even in the north where Islam is prevalent, church properties and schools litter everywhere but our noisy neighbours no go allow us hear word.

Greatzeus:
You damn right, money doesn't guarantee happiness but I am happier now compare to when I was broke. It's not the money per se, it's the fact that I am more productive with my life,makes enough to get anything I want.

Good one

prizlezzlalasky:
I presume...you havnt delved into what you are passionate about...you focused on eliminating the poor background which you where raised from ....kudos on that .

How about you discover what really makes you fulfilled? Could be a hobby, fronting an NGO targeted at helping the less privileged (since you had a first hand experience while growing up)......getting married to the woman you love, having kids( trust me kids are bundles of joy)....and even taking a vacation to your dream destination.

You may also want to delve into a career you ve admired while growing up....hope this helps.

Beautiful submission.... Thanks

Fiyinfoluwa20:
Once you are able to pay your bills, eat what you want and probably support people, additional satisfaction derived from additional money declines.

See the happiness derivable from Money as an inverted u curve or n, increases initially, Peaks ! And declines.

You need to find something that pushes you asides the money.

We all sometimes struggle with motivation.

Thanks

Belafonte:
The way to finding peace and fulfillment is doing the things that give you peace and fulfillment.

You’ve been able to secure sustenance spurred by the circumstances of your birth and upbringing. Now, to truly be happy, you must pursue your passions or a career that helps you actualise your true self.

A job, most times, is just a means to an end. Reflect on what and who you truly are at your core and you’ll find what you seek.

Thank you very much for this

Logoobenz:
nonsense!
You only bring people of similar values close so positivity could be exchanged amongst each other.
Giving back is a scam created by humanity to faux appease their conciense.

Why do you think so? I need more explanations please
