AlwaysUltraPad:
both of them were up and their votes was shared. Their votes put together made up of 30% in the last eviction.
I agree. But the eviction before this one, their votes put together wasn't even up to Cee c's own.

Funny how they seem to have so many fans but apparently, these fans don't vote.

mamas plssss my son is 5weeks old, he finds it difficult to poo,,, it makes him so uncomfortable and he cries,,, wen he farts it smells so bad,, we r on exclusive breastfeeding, pls wat can i do to help cos his cries r hurting me
Good evening, since your son is on exclusive breastfeeding, Just leave him, he will poop. As long as he farts, he is good, he will poop. When I goggled it when it happened to my son, it was explained that the baby uses up all the milk they take so no extra for waste. Please don't put any thing in his anus.
CelebritiesRe: BBNaija: Don Jazzy Kicks Against Bringing Back 2 Evicted Housemates by Ovems(f):
I don't think there is any strategy that anyone that has been out can play that can make them win the money. The people voting are not so stupid. It would just be a way to spice up the game. Let Khloe and Kbrule be given the chance to be evicted by voters. Don't think any returnee can win the money.
Besides, the show makes money from the votes so it's their way of generating more income.

Good morning mothers, in case of those whose offices don't register their employees for NHIS, you can still partake in the scheme for a small sum. The plan is called VCship (Voluntary Contribution something something, can't remember the full name.). In this plan, you pay 15k every year, that's even if you want to renew after one year, and you enjoy the services it offers. Just paying 10% of the total cost of the drugs. You can do it for yourself and kids but it's 15k per person.
Just thought to share , for those who can't afford to pay for full medical bills. Some HMOs used to handle this plan but I think they have stopped so now it's done by NHIS.
If interested, you can walk into any NHIS office for more info.
Disclaimer : I don't work there o, Just thought to share because of the benefits of the cost effective health plan.

Self medication for kids is really not advisable because we don't really know what's specifically wrong with them and the right medications to apply. Sometimes, it might even be nothing. I always take my kids to the pediatrician not matter how small the symptoms are. Recently, I felt my 17weeks old daughter was stooling and when we got to the hospital, the doctor said she wasn't. She gave me signs to watch out for when a baby is stooling.
1) pooping more than 6 times in a day
2) smelly poop
3) poop without the seeds
4) plenty poop in the diaper
can't remember the last 2 signs.
Cc Anugod, if you are worried about your daughter, please take her to a pediatrician. It might be nothing but if other wise, they will give the right medicine. I hope she is better now though.

lebete3000:
It's surprising how people will set a tone over something as that. Perhaps people are the ones that need to take a chill pill. Funny enough, I believed my change if plans would better serve I & d couple both, but here are people saying it serves only me.

I'll hear what the man has to say tomorrow, even from his tone, I'll detect my error.

So if I ask someone for his help one time, then change my mind, then ask later on then change my mind, I'm indecisive. Well it actually sounds somehow, but it's absolutely normal.
You may think it's to their benefits but there is no way they didn't have to move things and plans around to accommodate you. So it's kind of an inconvenience. And if she needs a favor next time, they will unconsciously expect her to call them back to say "sorry but don't bother again ". Just put yourself in her shoes.
FamilyRe: Pls Can Someone Tell Me How I've Wronged My Elder Sister by Ovems(f): 10:38pm On Mar 05, 2018
I believe your sister was upset because it won't be easy for her to ask them for help or assistance in the future . The couple won't take her serious again. You do it once, it's OK, but twice? The tone is set.

Ovems, Babylove01

As I write this I am sat comfortably while my little boss madam snoozes off.

When we weaned off night breast feeding and carrying to sleep, I would have to lie with her on the bed ( double bed in the spare room _ Yes she has her own room oh complete with a cot bed and all...... story for another day.) But she used to take FOREVER to sleep . Sometime sef in the middle of cuddle to sleep. The next thing I hear is hubby's voice " are you sleeping too?"

So in other to get her to sleep quicker I started backing her........ And it worked like a charm........ she would be out in 5 mins. I get to chill with oga small, finish tidying up and have a bit more of a relaxed evening. Very nice.........

........... but as some little human was nearing 12kg and my back nearly come and break we had to change the routine back. I Kent die!

So now we are back to chilling beside her while she finally sleeps, before I sneak off and leave her.

What I try to do is to finish most of the evening chores in the kitchen at least before we retire to bed usually by 20:30 - 21:00. I let her run around well beforehand and usually no cartoons after 19:00. We have a bottle of warm milk, kiss everyone goodnight, do a wee in the toilet ( potty training thingz) go to bed, say prayers, read a book (she asks to do another wee trip undecided). Then I turn off the lights. ( then maybe another wee trip to the toilet to wee a microscopic 2.5ml of wee... angry angry)

On a good day we sleep within 20 mins. Some other days .... if you like off the moon join the light! Somepeople eye go still dey shine! - so on such days we have to do cuddle to sleep, plus singing. And she will even start giving you playlist sometimes. Sing....Twinkle star, .....abcb,.... baa baa baa sheep........
Like seriously!!! cry

Even when she sleeps I stay for another 30 or so mins and I usually use the "down time" to catchup on some emails, or do some computer work or crochet or just chill a Bit, gather my own self and thoughts as I have been on a buzz all day.

So whilst I still think children that you just carry and put in their beds are fictitious, this routine works for me for now. As she gets older maybe we will EVENTUALLY get to a stage where I can put out the lights and leave the room when she is still awake and my neighbours won't come and break the door asking who is putting pepper in someone's eye. Lol!
Thanks for this. I pray he changes soon. The disadvantage of this pattern to me is that most time, especially when I still have a lot of work to do before bed, once I get into bed with him, I will sleep off too. I need him to go do his own thing.

Welcome on-board!

I can only suggest a gradual withdrawal ie if you lie in the bed with him switch to sitting on the bed and then sitting on the floor and next to a chair and then out of the room!!!

Good luck
Thanks babythug, sometimes, I sit on the bed too and he sleeps but if he is still awake and I come down from the bed, he comes down too.
FamilyRe: The Graduation Spot And Other Room! by Ovems(f): 3:54pm On Feb 13, 2018
Thank God for this thread and the first topic which is sleep routines. My son will be 2 years old on Thursday. In order to establish a bedtime routine which ended up not working, then we were still nursing before bed, I had to get into bed with him. Now we have stopped breastfeeding but that pattern has remained. No matter how sleepy he is he won't get into bed on his own to Sleep. He would rather wait till I get into bed with him. Please how do I break this pattern?

CelebritiesRe: 'why My Daughter Won't Listen To Celine Dion __actress Caroline Danjuma by Ovems(f): 4:59am On Jan 10, 2018
Most of these artists that sing love songs don't have a successful love life. Eg, Mariah Carey, Jennifer Lopez, etc. Everybody is searching for love. Celine Dion 's case was even better. She had a successful love story. Married her first love and wasn't divorced till he died. At lease she wasn't a fraud, she was singing from her heart.

Hmm where I want start from sef...

First I ordered a phone and some of its accessories from them since on the 2nd Dec 2017. The items were from JumiaNigeria global & I was told it would take minimum of 2 and maximum of 20 days. On the 7/12/17 I got a text that my items have been shipped. Then on the 23/12/7 got another text that I should come and pick them from Lagos while I am in Abuja and the my address and required pickup station is clearly showing Abija. I contact their customer care and I was told not to worry that the items would be sent to Abuja. Till this moment I haven't got them. I still got a today to com to Lagos. The worst part is that I tried cancelling my oder but was told I can't because I ordered it from a global store.
Seriously in need of the phone...no money no phone...really in a big mess already by shopping from them.

Another one is that I ordered some shoes/sneakers through them and they sent me some fake shoes. The shoes were made from upholstery material..

The fear of JumiaNigeria is the beginning of funds reservation.

#JumiaNigeria is fraud.
Pay on delivery option is the best. Won't feel their disappointment because my money is not lost.

I hate it when broke people jump on rich peoples social media page to abuse them.

If you no get money , hide your face and go double your hustle .

The worst thing that could ever happen to a man is being broke and ugly....

.. oshiomole may not be all that good looking but he's worth over $1 billion dollars to make up for his ugliness.

I believe most of the people calling him beast are good looking than the Ex governor, but been good looking without fat bank account is of no importance to nobody in this present day world.

But am sure it should favor her .

Regardless of the controversy, people would admire her dexterity and court her unique touch

"Bad news is good news after all"

I guess she wanted to trend like Ebuka's tailor cheesy (the guy trended so well that INSPIRATION FM invited him for an interview)
Yeah, they said any publicity is good publicity in showbiz but this her own is not good o. Ebuka's tailor didn't have any controversy attached to him.

The tailor was using the dress to advertise herself. She was giving the dress to everybody to pose with. That tailor is a criminal.
I guess she thought the bride won't give the dress the exposure that it deserves hence giving it to Mercy. Which is really wrong. She should have bought her own material and made something else for a celeb to wear.

The tailor brought the bad exposure, upon herself. What nonsense is all this? shocked How can she be giving a dress which was paid for by another client, to someone else to wear? Now, 2 people have worn the dress apart from the real owner! How disrespectful! It is all shades of wrong!! angry She is lucky that the bride in question is not related to me. She for see trouble, with a capital 'T.'
Yes you are right. The tailor did a very stupid thing.
CelebritiesRe: A Model Wore That Controversial Wedding Dress Before Mercy Aigbe (photos) by Ovems(f): 10:35pm On Jan 02, 2018
When I first saw the controversy surrounding the dress, I said to myself that it may not be the bride's own after all she is not the only one that has the material. But everyone that has worn the dress keeps tagging the tailor. 2018 is not doing this tailor good sha. It's her year of not so good exposure.
