Hi all,

Trust everyone is fine and our babies are doing very well. Its quite sometime on this thread

I need your help, advices and opinions, my son will be 6months later this month and the guy is already showing interest in eating; you can imagine trying to take my spoon while eating last night and crying whenever he notices the sight of food.

Mothers, what can I start him? I need home made food preparations,please. ( I know this has be dealt with on this thread but can't seems to locate the page)

Thanks and Kind Regards

In a world where it is increasingly difficult to get a loving and understanding partner and where it is believed that true love is hard to find; I found my wife. Meeting my wife wasn’t a joke, getting her to marry me was an hard nut to crack and when she finally did; she has loved me unconditionally, taking my proper care and making sure I become the best at whatever I set to do. God has been good to me and my household!

Where do I start to thank God and How? Oh God, thank you for giving me this woman who today is a YEAR OLDER under my ROOF. Today is My lovely wife, caring partner and my ever best friend’s first birthday since we became one- I am so happy for the faithfulness of God and his mercies, its been challenging and rough; but God has kept us strong and I am sure years ahead will be filled with abundance, multiple blessings, sound health, unlimited breakthrough and plenteous wealth.

Happy Birthday my one and only- your birthday is an opportunity to restate and renew my commitment to our marriage which will last and remain one till Jesus comes. I love you so much and I will keep loving you.

Oluwabukunolami, Happy Birthday to you and my best wishes. ***kisses and hugs***

Dear friends, your birthday wishes for my wife are important. Please drop them here. Thank you!

naijacutee: This would have been a perfect thread for suggestion to the front page to crowdsource ideas, but it seems you want to take things off the forum and begin to ask for personal e-mail addresses. Good luck.

No, Not really. Since no one is forthcoming with suggestions and luckynzo wanted to. That's why I asked for his email addy.

Nevertheless, please try and recommend this for front page for more ideas. Thank you!

luckynzo: Recruitment agency is very lucrative. I run one in Uyo with branches in Calabar and Ikot Ekpene. We recruit mostly for the hospitaliry, education and service industry. What exactly do you want to know?

Thank you sir. I will like to send you a mail. Please drop ur email addy.

Regards!

The Oyo State Police Command on Tuesday paraded seven persons said to be specialists in snatching exotic cars in the South West states.
Nigeria's Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar
The command’s spokesperson, Mrs Bisi Ilobanafor, told reporters in Ibadan that the suspects were arrested following a tip off on June 14.
Ilobanafor said the gang had robbed a man of his unregistered Toyota Camry car worth N1.2 million in Ibadan on the said day.
She said that police investigation into the incident led to the arrest of one of the suspects on June 19.
“On his arrest, the suspect made a confession that led to the arrest of others,” she said.
Ilobanafor said that the gang leader took the car to a buyer who was also arrested while three other vehicles were recovered.
“Through the efforts of detectives, one other suspect, who allegedly specializes in the forging of Nigeria Customs Service papers, was also arrested,” she said.
She added that on further investigation, two more vehicles were recovered from one of the suspects.
The police spokesperson said the vehicles were recovered in Ibadan, Port Harcourt, Lagos and Abakaliki, adding that the suspects would soon be charged to court.
The News Agency of Nigeria(NAN) reports that seven vehicles and three motorcycles were recovered from the suspects.
They included a Golf Volkswagen, Mazda bus, Toyota Camry car and Lexus jeep.

This is definitely a wrong move

If they can afford the pilgrimage fee; can't they afford to buy a phone or make international calls?.

Besides, what's the sole purpose of giving free phones? I remember the Minister Of Agriculture was criticized for planning to give out phones to farmers which is even beneficial to track and monitor them. Now, why hajj pilgrims?

I'm from Ogun State and a staunch supporter of this administration but this is a misplaced priority.

Btw, why didn't he do this to Christians when they went on pilgrimage?

Now this news is from saharareporters and we all believed it and agree its real; if its Anti-jonathan news, some will say its sahara-lies and its fake. Nigerians!

Hello all,

I sincerely need your inputs and advise on this; I'm planning to start up a recruitment outfit that would recruit candidates within the agricultural industry.

I was with a senior colleague yesterday and I overheard him discussing with a farmer friend on setting up a recruitment outfit as a business venture. The idea struck me and I felt it would be a good business and I can start with the agric sector since that's what I'm into now (starting from known to the unknown).

I need inputs and advises from business gurus here and experienced one s in this area.

Thank you!

Big fat, any idea of an affordable university where I can have my MBA/MSc? Online courses, preferably. Thank you!

She's indeed born again; the Personal Assistant to Pastor Biodun of COZA

Its been awhile and trust everyone is doing very well. May all the preggy mamas deliver safely in Jesus name, Insha Allah.

Madam tjskii, hummingbird, opeolukoya, aniksyhne and... how are the babies doing. Trust they are sucking well and daddy is not getting jealous now; I'm beginning to get jealous of my son- you need to see the way he grabs bossom and suck. He wouldn't sleep anywhere apart from her chest placing his head between and his two hands firmly on them as if someone is coming to take the thing away

Read about contraceptives here; all the options they gave my wife at the hospital (FMC, Abeokuta) has side effects and we'd concluded to stay away from these contraceptives but practice natural methods- we use raincoats on days that are not safe and free for all for safe periods. I also understand women who breastfeed exclusively are unlikely to get pregnant as their is an hormone that inhibits ovulation hence, there would be no menstrual cycle during this period. Wife is breastfeeding exclusively and has not seen her period and that gives us an edge to play correct matches with no middle referees .

Read about hitting the baby; I severally took up a fight with wife anytime she tried adjusting the baby with her hand, I even had a fight with our doctor at one of the ante natal visits the way he was 'pressing' the belly thinking it will harm my baby. I later understood it does no harm as long as it is done gently.

I understand Tjskii is the chairlady of the 'yummy mummys association'; make me the general secretary/financial secretary/ treasurer abeg; I can't wait to collect dues from sisters Rukemi291, byvan, queen labisi, favored gal, esmeralada, mummyf, beauty? ? ? and...

May the hand of God rest upon us and our household and grant us peace, sound health and good wealth to take care of our little ones.

Much love. Regards!

This is pathetic; strikes everywhere!
I was at the Federal Medical Hospital, Abeokuta with my 1-month old baby yesterday who needs medical attention and was left unattended to. Everywhere was closed and no one could be seen in sight. I'd to plead with one of the doctors I saw in his car but didn't respond. Everywhere was shut including the emergency section. I wonder why the govt has to be this callous.

It was quite unfortunate as I'd to make a quick plan for a private hospital nearby- which was quite stressful as we'd to start another case history again.

If anyone close to the "powers that be" in this country is reading this; this is appeal that you meet the demands of the striking workers- ASUU and Health Workers and let them resume their duties.

Please, Please and Please.

Thank you!

Congratulations to Mutty babe and favouredgal. So happy for you. The house is now filled with boys .

anjyskye: morin all join me in prasing God, i've been delivered of a baby girl. Mcfemad, humming bird tsjkii oyaaa make una begin bring yammmmmmsssss oooo

This is great! I'm so happy and I praise God for you and your household- His name be praised forevermore. The good Lord will deliver all the pregnant women in the house and around us safely in Jesus Name/Insha Allah; you will have great testimonies to share and all will be well with you.

Madam tjskii and hummingbird, I'll have to sue for an attempt of taking what belongs to my son; I made the first proposal on behalf of my son and now you are planning to take the angel away from us. Abeggi, put all your trailer of yams and range rover arrangement to a halt ooo

My very beautiful and ever understanding inlaw-anjyskye, please and please take good care of our angel oo, no mosquitoes, no noise or disturbance, she should be well breast-fed, cared and pampered.

I am sending 30 of 50tonnes truck filled with yams, coupled with ten trailers of red oil and five of groundnut oil, with six trucks of 50 tonnes filled with local, national and international rice. .

Ten latest cars of your choice would be shipped to you before the naming; if you want more, let us know. God is able!

Also, we're sending armed policemen to escort these items and to take charge of the security in your area particularly on where you stay. I'd also instruct the policemen to detain anyone that brings in items apart from us.

We have just started ni ooo, you haven't seen anything sef, my inlaw. We'll surprise you.

Madam Hummingbird, tjskii and opeoluwa, how are the babies doing and hope you're gradually recovering from the birth stress.

My big sisters; Rukemi291, Byvan, honey86, udoka, esmeralda1, Mutty.babe and all other preggy sisters in the house; I just say make I holla at us ooo, trust our babies are kicking well.

Abeg, make una do quick deliver babes for the handsome bobos wey don dey ground; I don dey plant yams to pay dowry ooo .

Happy Birthday esmeralda1, Best Wishes.

Regards!

Thank you Tjskii, we'd applied that and he's feeling better. How are u doing and my son's friend. My son do not take up to 45 mins to suck but can suck more than five times in an hour-granny said that's how I did then. No wonder men love breasts die. *modified*

Trust everyone is doing fine.

My 12days old baby is having cough and catarrh with repeated sneezing, someone suggested we give Amplicox but I'm against that. I gave him Vit C drop this evening when I saw his laboured breathing; we've been told at the hospital not to give anything except breast milk.

I'd taken up a fight with granny this night as she insists we give Ampiclox claiming that was what they gave to me then I planned taking him to the hospital tomorrow morning,though.

Any home remedies?

@Honey86, I understand your fears, I checked how my wife was stitched today and I was like; will this thing remain the same again?

k4kenny: You can put a little mentholatum on cotton bud and gently insert it in his bum for a split second. It always works for M̶̲̅ε̲̣.

@Mcremad. Congrats again on ur boy. Have u guys heard of unripe pawpaw for jaundice. Its soakerd it water for a day and a few drops is given to d baby. Would have suggested the early morning sun , but the waether is too harsh right now. You may have to take him in for phototerapy if his bilurubin levels are still high.

Thank you K4kenny, the doctors said the bilurubin levels are not too high as it is less than 10, that was why we're discharged. Though, they asked us to come for another test today, but I wouldn't as I don't seem to like the way the baby was punctured for blood collection the last time we went. We're using the soaked unripe pawpaw. Thanks a bunch ma. Trust you're doing good.

I am so so happy, Praise God for tjskii and hummingbird- we now have four boys in the house within one week; this is the Lord's doing and its marvelous in our eyes. I'm sure there are more boys coming to join- we're building a boys hostel .
May the good Lord grant all the pregnant women in the house (and beyond) safe deliveries. You will all have great and good testimonies to share. Our babies will grow to perfection in Jesus name.

To all those in TTC, I'm trusting God for you; you'll have good news to tell/share very soon. Babies shall grow in your womb soon and you'll carry them to term.

double blessing: To the latest dad on this thread,Mcfemad,e ku owo ni diapers. You are a great man.Love to wifey.

Thanks for the kind words, Double blessing, as a matter of fact, the arrival of my son was/is a double blessing to me; my career got a boost this same month and I'm really so happy about it.

Vigil has started already, my son wouldn't sleep through the nite, he only sleeps during the day and keeps vigil at night. It isn't easy as I've to resume work 8am every day; my wife is on morning duty while I do night- It worth it though and I thank God.

@Honey86, don't be scared of stitching ooo, come and see how they stitch my wife, but thank God sha! How are you doing?

Hello,

My first baby's naming ceremony was held yesterday and I honestly think that authorizes me to part of this thread . It's a great to be a Father: I'm loving it sha .

@Mothers in the house, how do we handle Jaundice, my son was diagnosed to have Jaundice but the doctors said it isn't much in his body system. We had repeated three tests within one week and was asked to come again tomorrow for another test to see if the Jaundice is progressing or not. I'm afraid my little one will be punctured again and wouldn't want it to happen. I'd told my wife we're not going that the baby will be fine.

How do we handle it,please?

[quote author=beauty?]Daddy Ifeoluwa, Congrats once more. How is mummy doing? hope she is strong?
Wish your family the best.[/quote]Thanks a lot ma. I appreciate this. God bless. The Lord will keep you strong and cause you to deliver safely. Amen.

@all, the naming ceremony of my boy was held yesterday and God proved himself as the Alimghty. His names are Ifeoluwaleyi, Oluwabamise, MoniJesuloluwa and about 15 others (I dnt know how to translate the names to English-someone could help out).

@Hummingbird, I strongly advise you visit the hospital immediately for proper checking;(that was the exact complaints my wife had before she delivered late last week Sunday (unfortunately, I couldn't finished my story). We're even told that it was God who saved her as the baby has been preparing to come for over week and had become slightly weak. As a matter of fact, it was not yet her due time but God proved himself beyond science. Everyone around us were surprised to hear that she has given birth, since they saw her the previous day.

Hence, rush down to your hospital and ask the doctor to carefully examine you. Its well.

@Madam tjskii, I'm trusting God for you for safe delivery, do not fear induction, it may be painful but worth it. Our doctors where my wife gave birth Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta had to induce my wife as she had no opening or see any signs even at 37weeks 2 days, she was ruptured and thereafter induced, It was a battle that lasted for over five hours, I was by the window side monitoring what's going on as I was not allowed in. But as it is, We thank God for his grace and mercy.

Thank you all for the best wishes: I sincerely appreciate. My son and wife are doing pretty well. All the pregnant mothers in the house shall all deliver safely. Amen. Madam tjskii, how are u doing? Start preparing oo, your child is near and its going to be stress free. I pray its a girl ooo; I'll just do book me down for my handsome bobo.

It is important to get the ATT, some say you can take the 5 at once, but its better taken the way tjskii advised. That was how my wife took hers, she felt pains for days with swellings. The whole subsided after a week or so.

I had been busy all day, that's why I couldn't continue my story. Shall continue shortly;I'm sure the first timers would learn a lot.

How it went? I had a strong feeling to visit my mum on a weekend and we agreed to go Fri, 20th July. Wife, mum and my siblings tallked till 1am and I was concerned when she woke up around 6am to say she has headache, feeling nausea and weak. "I can't get my self", she told me. We felt it was a sign of malaria and planned getting Coartem before she said there's no need as she's now feeling better. (She had gone to the toilet earlier where she passed out watery faeces) She later vomitted and mum suggested we go to the hospital, she didn't like the idea as she had obviously got better.

Sleep ke? The thing still look like dream. Madam tjskii, expect your baby before the week runs out. Your delivery shall be safe and healthy in Jesus name. I'm pure Ibadan man and wouldn't mind eating amala in your place after my son's naming on Sunday. My wife had requested I break the news here on NL esp Tjskii whose advices helped us greatly. She also asked me to tell all the preggies that all is going to be well. We shall all deliver safely. The labour story isn't a funny one and I'm sure all preggies especially the first timers would pick one or two things from it. Would share it shorlty

He's a good God; faithful is he, He hath done well for my household- My wife gave birth to a baby boy on Sunday 21st July 2013 at excatly 20.07hrs. It was hell but God saw us through. Details later...
