@Mitchy,just like mommas hav advised,do not displease ursef 2 please her spoilt kids,u try sef,i can't stand stubborn or spoilt kids nt even close relations.

Thanks ma. I actually have a huge problem, displeasing myself for others. But now that my baby's health is involved, i have to change. I can't grow grey hair for another person pikin

mignone:
mama, ur dh is too much! plenry 'gbosa' for him!

Looool. At first when he was opening the door i was scared but he told me to relax, he has a plan. I need to learn from him

The kids have come again. The mum brought them out and wore them slippers. They came straight to my door and were banging for me to open. Fortunately dh is around and i already shared your suggestions with him, so he opened and told them i'm sleeping so they shud follow him outside so they'll all play at the verandah. But they started packing sand and throwing at the verandah. Since he's stricter than me, he went to carry two brooms and gave them to sweep the sand away. So they are currently sweeping the verandah now and he has stylishly dodged inside and left them there

Are we scared to say ours?

If you are to name your baby or child after your pregnancy craving, what would his/her name be?

For me, mine will amala

When all you see is advert for pet sales, you'll gradually lose interest. If someone posts an interesting topic, it gets pushed down and overflooded with adverts. What else can we do than port to a more interesting section?

Some are depressed, some are happy, some are tired, some are sad, some are excited. Whatever our mood is, let's have some fun with this....

Iyabetajos:
i just feel depressed n tired unecessarily....i want cold water n gala...

Just cold water and gala? Oya give us your location let's mail it to you asap

@mum zaynie, thank you so much. I've followed them out before and they do so everywhere. I'll try and be more firm now becos i actually don't have that energy for unruly kids. I'll rather conserve my strength and save it for labor

@hajarahbadmus, serendipityF, soonest, missmalachi, babythug, dhabeautyjas, airforcewife, presVa, thank you so much for torchlighting the matter. I appreciate your responses!

Iffffffy:
thanks.... My LO is almost 7months

Wow. My mum mustered up the courage to walk out some years back after the violence was getting too much. We get beaten and embarrassed at the slightest issue and if she complains, she also receives her own beating.
When she moved out, we followed her. We preferred to be with her in her one room self contain than in my dad's duplex. After a year, he came back to his senses and begged. Tho he still hasn't changed most of his nasty habits but the violence has stopped when he realized everyone can abandon him.
Your life is important. If anything happens to you, we can't imagine what will be the fate of your LO. So be strong and stick to whatever reasonable decision uve decided to make. Leaving doesn't mean you are weak. It means you're strong. Above all, never relent in prayers. Jehovah is the institutor of marriage and he alone can guide your path. E hugs!

Gaily04:
Oya o, all Team May mamas owing BS, pls do something, we want to hear it, delay is dangerous, vigilante no be good enough reason o

It is well with us all, this third trimester is not gunny at all. I think say na only dey get bad dream. God dey sha, no fear.

About ur neighbor, as oda mamas have said, u have to find a way of stopping d children from coming into house. Feign sickness, an outing, rest, sleep at different times n the woman will get d msg.

Iffffffy, sorry. Ehugs dear, may God see u thru dis.

So good to finally hear from you dear. Apart from the heaviness, it feels like i'm back to 1st trimester. The nausea and weakness is back again. But i'm happy we are almost there.
And thanks for the advice

hajarahbadmus:
@mitchy what I suggest you do is lock yourself up in the house.. lock up in a way that no one will know you are home. And when they come knocking don't respond..i can really understand how you feel.. the day you feel like them being around, allow them and when they start being naughty, send them home. Your excuse should be you have been busy all day and you really need to rest and you will call them when you wake up..shikena..let the mom stay with her over pampered kids..
You just have to be nice about it.. if it means buying lots of junk you know they will like and give them as parting gift till you need them again, get them..
Toddlers can be such a handful and sometimes need to be spanked..they will be more mischievous when they know they can get away with anything and everything with you..who get time..
You just need to find away around it nicely..
My one cent..

Thanks for the advice dear. They love cheese balls so let me go and buy the pack and keep at home as souvenir for them whenever i want to send them away.

fearless07:
Present ma. Sorry for not responding to the roll call to type sometimes coupled with cough, catarrh and headache few weeks back. I am better now. Ehen, I am team pink o, so so happy. My prince will have a baby sister in July by God's grace. I can now start shopping cos I never buy anything. Ma'am Zaynie and zimunachimdi, thanks for sharing the essential tips. You have saved me a ton of stress. Welcome to the newbies and may God grant everyone of us safe, stressfree and easy delivery in Jesus name, amen.
#teamjulyforsupernaturaldelivery#

Yayyyy! More princesses in our team. Congrats! It's so good to hear from you. I'm happy you're fine now. We really missed hearing from you...

Iyabetajos:

cczaynie,rukemi,gaily n all my sabi mamas.jos is kinda cold at tyms

Crying? Oh no teamie! Pls stop it immediately. You know you're trying to reduce your bp. You don't need this at all. Only one day i let loose and cried, my bp rose to almost 140.
Pls stay on this thread often and try to distract yourself from the current situation. We are almost there. The finish line is not so far anymore. Cheer up dear! Oya tell us what you need to make you smile. Tomatoes, fuel, ewa goyin? Just name it!

missmalachi:
When ever he knocks i open n tell him n d mum that i really need to rest n dat i need time alone
Sometime i allow him in n after few min i tak him back to hs house that i dont hv strength to run around with is play cos i ws pregnant then.
When i put to bed it ws so easy so i use baby as excuse n now we hv moved out of there.

Thanks dear. Will try this next time they come around. Thanks for the suggestion. Whew!

Iffffffy:
....

Oh my!!!
So sorry dear. You alone know how the shoe pinches and you obviously made this decision as your last resort. We'll keep you in our prayers and if you're still preggie, please do nothing that will increase your bp.

missmalachi:
@ mitchyy.......i also hv a neighbour then where i ws staying b4 n she happen to be the one am close to in d flat.she loves her son to a fault n hardly spank him.dis guy spoil tins in der house n she sees it as normal. There ws also my other neighbour sons they are twin,wen they are scattering the house n i tell dem come back n sit they obey but this very one seems nt to unstd simple correction. I jejely stop allowing him in n only allow the twins because i n d mom wer so close i had to do it in a way to keep our friendship.


My dear i unstd ut situation

Pls let me know how you manage to stop the child from entering your house so i can apply the same tactic pls

maureensylvia:
@Mitchy I think a dialogue with their mum can be of help

I'm just feeling she won't understand because she allows them to be unruly in their own house too and she sees it as normal. I dont know if i should just be forming ill all the time so they'll let me be.
I'm beginning to have headache just thinking about the issue

PresVA:
^^^^^ , mitchyy .... if you can manage till July, good... after then you can using your new born as excuse

What if they still come in and disturb my baby? If i pursue them, won't the mum feel i dont want her kids near my baby? Because she's already promising them that i will soon born baby for them to carry.

Sorry for bringing my wahala here again but i need advice before i take the wrong step. Here's the situation:

We live in a compound with just the landlord. We are very very close to them and we're like a family. They can eat in our house, we can eat in theirs. They have two kids, boys under the age of 3. The kids love playing with us a lot and sometimes they come over to our flat to watch cartoons becos of the kind of trust we have for ourselves.
But the problem is, the kids are unruly and stubborn. Once they step into our parlour, dey'll carry remote control and throw on the floor, carry my laptop and start pressing, pick anything they see, open the shelf and try to open my pregnacare, scatter biscuit all over the chair, climb chair and try to bring down our wedding photo frame.
Honestly, i'm not exagerrating but they can do all these under 15mins.
Their mum does not joke with her kids which is understandable and she hardly spanks them when they misbehave. She doesnt tolerate anybody disciplining them too so all i can do is shout for them to stop but they wont listen. If i drag them away to sit down, they'll start crying loudly as if i beat them and the mum might assume i did.
There was a day a mechanic came to our compound to work and he plugged his phone at our verandah. One of them picked up the phone and dipped it inside bucket of water. The mum just came and carried the boy inside. She didnt even bother asking the mechanic if the phone is still working. Unfortunately, the phone got damaged and he had to buy a new one.
My ish now is, the kids are stressing me. I don't have energy for all this. If they were my kids, i know how discipline them. Sometimes i lock up my house and pretend to be sleeping but she'll knock and tell me the kids are crying to come stay with me. Most times, i use pillow to block my tummy becos they will want to hit it.
I just don't know how to handle this without making her feel offended or putting a strain in our relationship.
She loves her kids to a fault which is understandable but she doesnt take me serious when i complain about them misbehaving. She'll just laugh it off and playfully tell the kids to not disturb me again.
I don tire!

Pls mamas who have kids and others who are experienced, i need your advice. Please!

Gaily04:

All of una good morning. I trust y'all fine.

Morning dear. Na you enjoy the weather pass, this one you're just waking up

Ada243:
good morning fellow mums and mums to be. im new here. 25weeks3days pregnant with baby no 2. less than 15weeks to and yet to buy anyrhing. yet to check gender too, hoping for a boy as my first is a girl. #teamAugust

Choi! @BritneyStacy, new recruit don land for you o. I'm jealous. Welcome mama and enjoy your stay in the swaggalicious team August.

BritneyStacy:
. I use shaving stick .I move the shaving stick with my 6th sense. I stand to shave the front part. I then squat to do the part in btween. While shaving there, I move gently so as to avoid cutting myself. I don't necessarily aim for complete hair removal and I try to shave at least once a week so i don't let it get too bushy . The more hairs there, the more stressful it is cos squating for long with a bump is really tasking! !

Alternatively, you ask DH. Why I avoid asking him is because when he finishes, he will ask for settlement and my libido has gone to Sambisa and has not yet returned .

Hahaha, my libido is still 50% intact o, so maybe i'll try bribing him with that special settlement as long as he does the job well. Lol

simababe:
@sayoddy, shaving sticks cut atimes, I used gillete 2weeks ago, I didn't knw I'd cut mysef, I just noticed that anytime I rinse the stick in a bowl the colour changes to red, that was wen I called dh n he said I have peeled my CS incision line. What a scary experience, we kept on cleaning severally n the blood kept on gushing until it was treated n the cotton wool n spirit was left on the surface. Dh blamed me ontop n for 2 days the bruises were painful. The best bet is to use hair removal, use bic shaving stick cos it's not really sharp or ask dh to shave for u.

Hahhhh! Are you serious? I always use gilette for my underarms and i didn't notice its sharper than bic. Thanks for letting me know. And sorry for your cuts o. Ndo!
