Busy_body: A baby boy is required to prevent Hubby 100% from cheating. A baby boy is required to beat John who wouldn't stop beating your daughter.
And when this baby boy has been made to artificially "come forth", all shall now proceed to the Church of the "before-i-formed-thee-in-the-womb-i-knew-thee to do thanksgiving and praise God for this "gift", hmmm, and what happens to those viable-many-are-called-but-one-was-chosen-eggs-left-behind-in-the-petri-dish God is indeed a miracle working God of complexities Halleluyah Amen somebody 
Eureka, i have found another one Now i know why. . . it is now clear to me that Nigerian men have a different Bible to everyone else's in the World, eyah poor longsuffering Naija men, no wonder they have always been confused Their own Bible only states Ephesian 5:22-23 as saying "Wives submit to your Husbands", awww poor thing, no wonder the part that states "Husbands love your Wife as just as Christ loved the Church, is always forever eluding their daft brain Alas their own Bible is incomplete hence reason majority of them always blame the woman for any infertility issue or always beating the woman for not giving them a boy And now I can see that their Bible also don't contain verses such as:
*Genesis 33:5. "And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are those with thee? And he said, The children which GOD HATH GRACIOUSLY GIVEN thy servant."
* Genesis 48:9. "They are my sons, whom GOD HATH GIVEN ME in this place."
* Joshua 24:3. "I took your father Abraham, and multiplied his seed, and GAVE HIM ISAAC."
* Ruth 4:13b. "The LORD GAVE HER CONCEPTION, and she bare a son."
* 1 Chronicles 25:4-6. "Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, and Jerimoth, Hannaniah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, and Romamti-ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth: all these were the sons of Heman the king's seer in the words of God, to lift up the horn. And GOD GAVE TO HEMAN fourteen sons and three daughters. All these were under the hands of their father for song in the house of the Lord, with cymbals, psalteries, and harps, for the service of the house of God, according to the king's order, "
* Psalm 127:3-5, NEB. "Sons are a GIFT from the Lord and children a reward from him. Like arrows in the hand of a fighting man are the sons of a man's youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them; such men shall not be put to shame when they confront their enemies in court."
* Psalm 127:3, KNOX. "Fatherhood itself is the LORD'S GIFT, the fruitful womb is a reward that COMES FROM HIM."
*Genesis 9:1 leads us to believe that children are a gift of God and come solely through the blessing of God,
* Psalm 127:3 Don't you see that children are God's BEST[b] gift[/b]? the fruit of the womb His generous legacy?"
*Matthew 18:5 says, "Whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receives Me."
* Isaiah 8:18. "Behold, I and the CHILDREN WHOM THE LORD HATH GIVEN ME are for signs and for wonders in Israel FROM THE LORD OF HOSTS, which dwells in mount Zion."
* Genesis 1:28 * Deuteronomy 28 * Jeremiah 30:19 * Exodus 20:12; * Deuteronomy 5:16; * Psalm 107:41; * Matthew 15:4; * Ephesians 6:2,3. * Deuteronomy 30:5 * Genesis 32:12; * Deuteronomy 7:13; 13:16; 28:63a; 30:9. * Luke 1:14-18 * Ezekiel 24:25 * Hosea 9:16 * Luke 1:15-17
And there is many more Bible verses such as those i already listed oh, unlike that Malachi something something about tithe which is just one verse . . . So that is why me and my bleeding heart has to open a shop selling the genuine Holy Bible to all Naija men to stop this discriminationary practise of giving them incomplete Bibles  you really do have a lot of time on your hands.  , jeez,  |

saworoide: @OP. Count your blessings and give praises to the good Lord. I have a friend who would give up everything to have any child at all, how much more of 3 girls.
Relax and pray for the family instead of worrying yourself over what you have no power about. What if your have the 4th one, it turns out to be a boy and (God forbid) you lose him later, would you go for the 5th? Hell yeah, had an aunt that prayed for a child for 6years,had a baby girl, had 2 other lovely girls in quick succession, now her wahala is how to get a baby boy, as in, its so intense, going to church, medical examinations, etc, the list is endless, having girls is a wonderful idea, but a son is equally good, com'on, the girls need a brother figure while the husband needs one to carry on the family name, its as simple as that, the OP should adopt a son if all known medicine/scince procedures has failed. |

Eegulize: @Vck80 Thanks a lot for answering three of the questions I posed earlier, I really appreciate.
@NL members Please I want you all to put yourselves in my husband's shoes and react like a real African man. I don't care if you use insultive words, just be your real self and get your points across (after all, this is an anonymous site).
Sincerely speaking, my husband and I had agreed to have just three kids after I was told by Doctors that my system was too small to allow passage of a baby through normal deliver, this led to the first CS when they said dilation didn't progress as expected. We shrugged at that news and had oped that at least either my 2nd or 3rd baby would be a boy and we would just put an end to child-bearing. But unfortunately, things didn't turn out that way.
One striking thing that happened during my 3rd CS was that, there was this lady that went into the theatre before me. She told me that was her fourth CS, I didn't ask her why she was going for a fourth CS since she already had 2 sons and a daughter. Anyway, my meeting her disabused my mind of the initial belief that CS was strictly restricted to three times. That perhaps is yet another reason that is making me to feel I could make a 4th attempt especially when Doctors confirmed that was possible and I saw someone who had actually gone through it.
I'm not unaware of the enormous risk associated with CS but I just feel a strong urge to do the very best for my family. I know my husband would have done the same thing to make me happy if the situation was reversed, he has proved this to me on a number of occasions.
I'm actually feeling some sense of guilt because prior to the conception of our third baby, he actually came to me to say "please let's see if we can influence the baby gender this time around so we close this child-bearing thing once and for all". But I told him no way and that I was a Christian and wouldn't do any of such. But just two years down the line now, I'm regretting why I didn't listen to him then.
Though like I said earlier, he's very loving and caring but he now sometimes swing in between happy and downcast moods and when you ask, he tells you everything is fine. Honestly speaking, i WON'T BE HAPPY, i will probably conceal my resentment for a while, but will definitely explode someday, a son is important, IMO |

Abeg spare me all these jargons, what has education or exposure got to do with it  we are Africans for petes sake??who doesn't know that a son is the crown of every home?what happens to the man's lineage after he has gone?, nairalanders no dey try, you guys saying she has no right to worry are just plain liars, rubbish, abeg speak the truth or just STFU @OP, 99.9% of peeps here are not being realistic, you have every reason to worry, leave the fact that we are all exposed and claim to be educated, but the truth is that no true african man feels fulfilled without having a son, it is not possible, even if you have very intelligent and lovable daughters, your husband may be secretly wishing he has a son and will definitely complain someday, , a son is always the crown of a family, be it a good or bad son. I suggest you talk to very competent health experts and decide on your next line of action, if your health cannot carry it, better go and adopt a son, Moreover your daughters need a brother figure in their lives, just my 2cents |

Car Talk › Re: Volkswagen Passat 2007 Advice Needed. by nawfia(op): 6:28pm On Sep 27, 2011 |
Fhemmmy: [b]I just saw this and here is my review on the machine . . . . .
Apart from the sleek look of the machine, i think it is reliable and great. . . here are some of what we have known about it:
Amazing highway car; 36 mpg at 55 mph on a level is achievable. The cruise control makes travel effortless. The styling inside and out is eye-catching Choice of fuel (sometimes I'd use 93 octane, sometimes 89). VW recommends 91 octane . . Watch what gas you put into the machine.
However, it could be expensive to maintain and the reason is cos of some of the electrical issues that has plagued it, BUT if you do your proper maintenance, you will enjoy the machine. It is not only good on gas, The technical know how of the ride on the road of Lagos is not bad at all, but i would surely advice that you take it to the dealer most times to take care of the machine, cos you wont want some "mechanic" to use you for lunch.
If i MUST ride one of this, i will make sure is well serviced and done well . . . . But parts are not too expensive and the fact that labor is cheap in Nigeria, you will fine
Good luck[/b] They guru has spoken, thanks fhemmy, volkswagen passat, AM COMING FOR YOU, lolzzzz  |

oyinmama: @Lady Winona, reading your post brought back my younger years, my dad used to beat my mum, hold her neck and slam her head against the wall whilst us four kids would be watching & crying. I remember the day my mum decided to leave after 14 yrs of marrriage, beathings, emotional abuse & four kids (two girls, two boys); we had locked ourselves in her room with her as he continued to yell the house down & threaten her life, my brother aged 12 said "Mummy, u have to leave before he kills u", and I remember the look in her eyes as she asked, "but what about u all?" He said, "Just go Mummy, dont let him kill u, " There & then she made up her mind to leave with us all with not a pin to our name, all we took from my dad's 4-bedroom duplex was our clothes which mum packed in bedsheets, and a cousin of hers squatted us in the store in her house for almost a year. That was 20 years ago; we left my dad's house on the 11th of September, 1991, aged 14, 12, 9 and 6 years, I am the oldest and was in J.S.S.3, our youngest was in Pry 2. At this point, that mum had a Masters degree and was still studying for a law degree. She was 36 years when we left.
I will not lie people, the years were hard, and my mum went thru hell to say the least, not forgetting the stigmatization that comes with being divorced; so-called family& friends who were often called to settle fights/beatings all shunned us. There were several occasions when landlords would refuse to let out their apartments to mum, being a single mother. Through all those years, my dad NEVER contributed a penny to our upkeep, welfare or schooling, even though we were based in Lagos as he was; his g/f moved in three days after we left, and they have been together since then. Mum begged & borrowed to raise us four.
I thank God for His mercies, He has been good to us despite all, we are all doing well, now aged 34, 32, 29 and 26; all happily married, some with kids, doing well in our chosen careers(I'm a physician, my sis is a lawyer, my bros are architects & quantity surveyor respectively) and guess what? Mum re-married 7 years ago to a widower, and believe me, she's still treated like a queen by my step-dad as we speak; she deserves every bit of it!!
I am known by people to be very vocal about domestic violence, my stand, the first time it is attempted, leave, no second chances, it hardly stops; I will rather be alive and single than have @Late Dr. (Mrs.) aged 30 something on my epitaph. I have two beautiful daughters aged 8 and 6, I'm gonna teach them that marriage is not a do or die affair; there is no justification for being beaten by a man, and no woman should EVER blame herself for being physically abused. I also thank God that my sister and I have been blessed by non-violent spouses; by God's grace, my brothers will also love & cherish their wives as well.
Please forgive my long story people, but this issue just gets me so riled up! CC, thanks for this thread, I truly pray it helps someone in need out there.
Love u mummy  [/quote your mum did the best thing, i applaud her, |

@ nri chief O boy u r d man, are u from anambra??just asking tho, my twin sister's husband(a well exposed guy,had a first class,m.sc and working in a good corporate organisation,  thought it was only illiterate men that beat their wives  ) was always fond of beating her, but cos they were based in the united states, there was little or nothing i could do about it, as God will have it, the guy was transferred to nigeria and in one of his stupid tantrums, he raised his hands on her simply because my sister reprimanded his niece for stealing, the annoying thing was that he did it in the prescence of my mum who came for omugwo, o boy, i left the office sharply, reunited with my squad (we were like 17men), destination vgc ajah, entered the estate and gave the guy and his brother (d brother has slapped my sister in the past) the beating of their lives, infact,it was so bad that the estate folks came out, the guy abandoned his house and ran away bare footed, while we took his younger brother hostage, the koko is that i made the younger brother sign /swear that i should kill him any day he set foot in that house, as for the guy, he initiated a meeting,came to beg us (my mom and i)that we should forgive him and pray for him, am so sure he will never try that shit again, dont know why men beat their wives  |
