At my antenatal class, they said you can lie on your stomach, as long as it remains a comfortable position for you. That's been one of my favourite positions from day 1. The only position they said is not good is laying on your back

@queensnow, my sister men matter no b muscle fight o. na sense plus wayo u go take win. for some of us who grew up in d midst of boys with no sister we have perfected d trick of getting what we want without shouting sef. u shld see d way my brothers celebrated the day I got married n left home, my mum said she was jus crying because it was a funny sight to behold. they all kept saying they have never seen a woman who can successfully wrap her 4 brothers around her finger without having to raise her voice, na me b dat. I don master d craft of beating dem to deir own game o. hian!! my husband wey can sabi like to hang out with friends at d club b4, if u tell am abt hanging out now him go tell u say make u dey go him dey come but b4 u know wetin dey happen oga don enter him car zoom off straight to d house. shior! if woman dey chase am now sef na deir time dem jus dey waste. I think overall when a husband cheats and he finally realises that the wife too has as much opportunity to cheat back but she's decided not to cheat instead she's making him work double hard to earn her trust again, it jus makes dem lose d urge to want to cheat again. who likes going tru d rigors of saying sorry a million times and missing that calm sweet feeling of home? when they realise d fun out there isn't worth losing their family dem go cool down. I guess what made my oga to really become born again was because i stopped worrying too much, i stopped asking too much questions, infact anytime him com back na welcome o. he goes out of his ways all d time to explain every reason y he's late or does something and i always tell him dat he's a grown man and doesn't need policing or explaining to me. what he owes me is being alive to his responsibility and nothing more. he knows me better dan even my mother say i no dey vex but if I vex rain go fall o. so he has been trying over d years to atleast get us back to where we use to be. my dear na God dey help we women jare, marriage no b walk in d park o.

omoloulah:
@whyterose, Pele dear. dis men and deir stupid wakaring abt sef? deir wife no born pikin dem go waka, deir wife get belle dem go waka! what dey are looking sef it's only God dat knows. pls don't let dis break ur spirit almost all of us have been in ur shoes at one point in time including myself. biko forgive ur sister, she told ur parents because she knows they're d only ones that can handle ur husband and if she say make she take as d matter pain her handle am make she no go scatter ur marriage and she was also considering ur condition make u no go wound urself. no vex u hear she did it out of love. as for ur parents saying I told u so, no mind dem na vex dem dey vex but dem go calm down. now to ur oga, if he likes let him carry his face to d moon o e no concern u. like seriously! he messed up and him think say na ogboju go solve d problem abi? see d person wey suppose dey beg u wit heaven n earth, nonsense. pls don't let anybody brainwash u dat any of dis is ur fault abeg. does he think u've never met a cuter man than him since u married him abi him think say anoda man never toast u since u marry am or u've never been attracted to someone else since u guys got married? all dis things na common sense na! please if u still can, it's better to take time off and go cool off somewhere abeg. u're at d tail end of ur pregnancy no let any man give u stress make him no pour sand for ur garri o. may u not suffer in vain. I've been in your shoes b4 and I know how much it hurts. make u jus cry small and be brave o because too much tears go make u sick. if u can, pls block and unfriend him from all ur social media accts. that way u'll have ur peace of mind because u no go dey see nonsense​ and it won't be easy for jus anybody to have access to ur contact info. that was what I did after d whole episode and I tell u dat since 2010 I've been living my life in peace abeg. when oga open Instagram and was gisting me of all d daily drama I also decided to open one too and when he asked me to follow him or he follows me I jus simply said no thank u. I told him I like my privacy and it's safer for ur to stay out of eachother's lane. d man was speechless! I told him dat as a matter of fact sef he's not even on my Facebook friend list, he said but he's my friend on Facebook na. I tell am say na old acct wey I no dey use again and dat I opened a new one since 2010 and he's not welcome there because i want my privacy. immediately he understood dat I was serving him his own pill because dat was what he told me wen I found out he was cheating shortly after I had my 1st baby same year we married. he said I was snooping around and dat was how d girl found me and contacted me, can u imagine? I don mind my lane since den o and he's been suffering in silence because he's afraid I myt jus not b into him anymore especially since I've refused to move back into d master's bedroom for years now. see jus take time out and process ur emotions, it won't b easy but u'll b jus fine. almost all men make dis mistake but wen they know that madam won't let it slide easily they'll shape up. things won't go back to how they were easily because dis anger will take years to dissolve but u'll b alright. sorry abt d job, always remember dat God's gat ur and he'll do what's best for u. u'll get a better one after d baby. take it easy on urself okay! e-hugs to u and ur little princess. abeg no forget to reach out to ur sister wen u calm down o, she meant well. biko don't b bothered abt how oga do face o, e no concern u. na him shit for church so make him clean am. if u were d one that cheated will he be doing all dis nonsense? after dem go say women too like wahala! rubbish!

My hrt froze, I refused 2pick up. My fear was confirmed wen my elder brother came knocking cos he also stays at abj. My parents had sent him. It turned out that my elder sister spilled the beans. All hell was let loosed. My mom scattered my hubby with fone calls in which all tru he kept apologizing. I felt bad, cos I Neva intended for such to happen. My elder sister called to explain, I dished out my anger to her n dropped d call,haven't picked her call since then.And to think that my parents was against my wedding 4abt 3yrs b4 d finally gave in due to inter tribal differences complicates d problem more with me being the last in d family too. My mum has been telling me we warned u bt u didn't listen, nw dance 2d music. Haba was I wrong 2marry 4luv?

AyPortable1:
Good morning oo my people, abeg I need constructive advice oo.
So my husband elder sister called me this morning saying she wan just greet me. My challenge now is she requested i send her my full picture via whatsapp today.
I know she means no harm, she's friendly too but in 7yrs I have known my husbands family (we courted for 6yrs, wedded last year), I know better you don't share private and personal info with them esp my MIL. For me oo they are too loose with information. They can jest about anything/anyone. I purposely keep off communication/contact with them esp BIL and MIL. Me I don't want to send her any picture as i am sure it will circulate them entire family even extended siblings will see it.
How do I go about it.

spiceeamiee:
Good morning everyone. I just want to rant this morning. Why did people who were pregnant before us made this pregnancy thing look like a walk in the park? Why did they make it look like the best thing since sliced bread?? How come nobody has ever told me pregnancy is hard?? How come all they are saying is enjoy it and enjoy the changes it brings? I am not complaining, far from it but we should be willing to say things exactly as they are and call a spade a spade. Pregnancy is hard!! It is the hardest work ever and it doesn't just stop once you put to bed, in fact that is when the real hard work starts. MS is no fun. Weight gain does not make you happy. Swollen feet, swollen breasts and back pain do not give any one joy(at least not me). Not being able to keep food down and being on an emotional roller coaster every day is tiring. Thank God for NL Preggy thread. This is the only place I can vent because if you say this to people outside, they hush you. They try to make you feel like you are not woman enough for complaining. They tell you other people have gone through it and you are not the first so kini big deal? This culture of silence is why a lot of women suffer from Post natal depression. All they just need is someone to talk to and they will be relieved but nobody wants to listen. Every one hushes you up and shuts you down. I just want to be able to tell someone how I feel because I'm getting tired of being a pregnant super woman. Thank you all for reading.

Mrnairalandd:
It's what it's...it's wrong for her to ask such silly question. Period! You don't need a soothsayer to tell you how horrible that woman would turn out to be and of course bad influence on her daughter.

I have a similar experience but in different way. Thank God I got myself out of their claws.

We are talking about what happened not what you assumed.

If there is a topic like what you assumed, i ll equally deal with it like this.

Mrnairalandd:
It's wrong

Trust me on this, your cousin is about to get himself into a family trap and he ll live to regret the decision of marrying that lady. You know why, that question alone reveals how that mother-in-law is and of course her relationship with her daughter.

If she is bold enough to ask your cousin that question, you can now imagine what his life ll look like after marriage.

The dude should be on the run by now...

Good afternoon mamas. 
So many mentions from you all. I wish I can respond to every single one. 
It's been a stressful few days!
From going to the hospital everyday at 2am to drop expressed breast milk and staying till 10pm. It's been hard. I've not slept in 2days!
He is now sucking directly from breast and mehn he can suck oooooo!! He can suck!!!

In all I thank God cos it's better than him not eating at all. The pain and sleepless night is so worth it. 
Ilan is doing well, and we have been discharged. Just waiting to fill paperwork and get home to rest. 

Pls what can I do abt swollen feet? It's so bad it hurts to walk. My bp is normal

Also my left nipple and areola hurts when Ilan sucks. Pls what can I do?

Yesitsme:
For my first delivery, was my MIL. cos my mum fell I'll after she heard of d baby's death. My MIL is the best any time any day. Not sure I will be that comfortable with mum coming this time but what can I do? its her right. MIL has more motherly instinct than my mum.

Kittana:
So you would rather I told her to her face that I don't want her coming before my mum, "after all her goodwill"? Because it shouldn't be hard to deduce my original concern is how to tell her, before you started your sermon on how to recognise my mother. I wouldn't turn up my nose at your preference of your MIL, but no try to talk like say na the normal tin be that. A MIL is a MIL. She can't be your mother.

I de appreciate contributions wella oo. So long as dem no try to take me score cheap points.

It is well sha.

Sorry I av not been able to reply. Just arrived Nig nd had to sort out ma sim card issue.
@Queensnow, not sure of exact price for each one. It's ready made.
I miss it already a
@Olamitie . I don't knw much abt playpen for cott. D one bought in Nig here for me is bassinet which is too small but d cot can be used till 2yrs of age.d two together wil take up space.bed was 179QAR,bedding set is 149QAR.
My advice is dt find a good capenter to make it for you nd go get foam frm mouka as dy av babybed which is covered.

Florena:
mamas how much do I need to cover my baby, he will be 2months next week. my Mil will not allow us to open window or on fan, she said his body still as "holes" (I am not understanding) and this boy is all sweaty especially at midnight. your input is needed pls.

also he didn't take the rota vaccine at 6weeks, can he take it at 10 weeks? and does anyone know any hospital close to ketu or ikorodu where it can be administered.
