Briana and Jordan Turner, from Kentucky, welcomed Zoey Hart, Dakota Faith, Hollyn Grace, Asher Blaze and Gavin Lane, in May last year following fertility treatment. To keep the children in clean clothes the couple, who have help from Briana's mother and a live-in nanny, do at least three loads of washing a day. The babies also go through 60 nappies and at least 20 different outfits in just 24 hours. The weekly shop involves dozens of pots of baby food and previously the family had to prepare some 40 bottles of milk to keep the quintuplets fed.

'We had to get a van as soon as they were born - obviously our standard car didn't fit them. But even that's a squeeze. 'It is definitely a huge task taking them out and we attract a lot of attention. We can't really go anywhere without that.' Briana, 30, and Jordan spent two years trying for a baby before opting for fertility treatment. The father-of-five admitted he 'almost passed out' when the couple found out they were expecting quintuplets. Jordan, 27, took just a week of paternity leave before returning to work as a crane driver but Briana has help from the full-time nanny and her mother, who arrives at the house every morning at 6am to help look after her grandchildren. The couple estimates they have already spent thousands on the basic essentials for their children and admit they will have to move into a bigger house as the quintuplets grow. Briana said: 'Each of them has their own little personalities. It has been really cool watching them grow. 'We do have to stay to quite a tight schedule and we are adapting that as they grow. Sometimes it does not seem real - this past year has just been a bit of a blur.' Asked if they will have anymore babies Briana replies: 'O my goodness - we are done.' The family have a Go Fund Me page and an Amazon wishlist.

That's how I desperately wanted to be a mother of twin or triplets myself. Was so so disappointed when the scan showed only one baby in my womb. But you know, 6 months after the birth of my daughter, I started thanking God for not answering my prayers. Caring for a baby is not easy o. biacan: 1 Like |

Culture / Re: Why Do We Pay Bride Price In Nigeria? by MaeBlocks(f): 2:57pm On Mar 06, 2018 |
See what I found on Wikipedia concerning Bride price: Africa In parts of Africa, a traditional marriage ceremony depends on payment of a bride price to be valid. In Sub-Saharan Africa, bride price must be paid first in order for the couple to get permission to marry in church or in other civil ceremonies, or the marriage is not considered valid by the bride's family. The amount can vary from a token to a great sum, real estate and other values. Lobolo (or Lobola, sometimes also known as Roora) is the same tradition in most cultures in Southern Africa Shona, Venda, Zulu, Ndebele etc. The amount includes a few to several herd of cattle, goats and a sum of money depending on the family. The cattle and goats constitute an integral part of the traditional marriage for ceremonial purposes during and after the original marriage ceremony. The beasts and money are not always paid all at once. Depending on the wealth of the groom he and his family can enter into a non written contract with the bride's family similar to the Jewish Ketubah, in which he promises to pay what he owes within a specified period of time. This is done to allow young men who do not have much to marry while they work towards paying off the bride price as well as raising a family or wait for their own sisters and aunts to get married so they in turn can use the amounts received to offset their debts to their in-laws. This amount must be paid by his family in the event he is incapacitated or dies. It is considered a family debt of honor. The bride price tradition can have destructive effects when young men don't have the means to marry. In strife-torn South Sudan, for instance, many young men steal cattle for this reason, often risking their lives. In mid twentieth century Gabon a person's whole life can be governed by the money affairs connected with marriage; to secure a wife for their son, parents begin to pay installments for a girl of only a few years; from the side of the wife's family there begins a process of squeezing which goes on for years. |

So so sad! Mothers I know that the pressure to contribute and support the family is so high these days but nevertheless, be vigilant of your daughter's welfare. So many wicked people are out there watching to see what innocent child they will carryout their evil exploits on. I just sincerely wish such evil persons were never born. 1 Like |
Family / Re: I Beat My Wife. What Would You Have Done Differently In My Situation? by MaeBlocks(f): 10:39am On Oct 24, 2017 |
For the first time I can actually say I found a sensible and educative post on Nairaland. Am usually bored reading long post but not with yours as which paragraph was well packaged. May our good Lord expand your knowledge. Growing up as a female child in our society has never been easy and young children are not even taught to talk to their parents or elders when they have been assaulted. I too, am a victim but have never spoken to anyone about it till this day. I rather chose to suppress and forget they ever happened though sometimes I fear what the outcome will be. I am my only friend and I talk to myself a lot. I have never insulted, beaten or screamed at my husband while we were dating or now that we have been married for 3 years because its not his fault and I have always asked the Lord for his grace to do what is right each day but am hyper-super protective of my daughter. While I was pregnant I kept on asking the Lord a male child so as to avoid the pains of my past, even my husband was surprised of my insistence of wanting a male child. Well at the end of the day the Lord gave me his own choice. I will teach her how to be free in talking to me, but Lord knows that whoever dares to touch her will get 100% of my bottled up anger. selflessmaya: 4 Likes |
