That belle sha. angry

Wisdom is profitable to direct.Why contest right of way with a Nigerian soldierman holding a gun.Even Jesus Christ said negotiate with the man taking you to court.

You will have a permanent deformity/scar of the face and lingering pain now.

@Ikechu0b.
Rather than condemn the wrongs done by Nigerians in diaspora to soil the image of Nigeria,you decide to go tribal showing poor logical reasoning.
The crimes- drug dealing and all that is done in the Eastern nations,is the news not aired by Western media?Doesn't CNN and others carry the news?

You could have done well to condemn what is wrong collectively as Nigerians rather than write a long epistle that turns poor at the end.

donigspain:
I am quoting you because I want you to read this true life story of mine.

My immediate elder sister, who is also a Nairalander, got married in the early months of year 2000.

For the next 16 years [2000 - 2016] she had six pregnancies in the following order:

- Girl
- Girl
- Girl [still birth]
- Girl
- Girl
- Girl

All through these years, the husband and his family [my inlaws] never for once showed any sign of frustration neither did they mount unnecessary pressures on my sister. In fact, he loved her the more.

We [my family] were actually the ones creating unwarranted pressures for ourselves. I remember discussing with my sister about several conception techniques that improves the chances of male conception. My sister always believed she will birth a male child at the right time.

Last year, my sister took in. We were all praying for a miracle. God should bless us this time with a boy. On April 1st 2017, I got a call very early in the morning that my sister put to bed a set of twin boys. At first, I thought it was April Fool prank not until I confirmed from my dad and our family pastor. Today my sister is blessed with 5 beautiful girls and 2 handsome sons.

So my dear OP, be calm. Don't panic! Your joy will be complete.

At your request I can give you my sister's number. She's learned and a great counsellor. Her experience will help you pull through.

PS:
- This is in no way suggesting that any gender is superior or more valuable than the other. Male or female; a child is a child.
- My family [including my sister] understands that the male sperm determines the gender of the child but we all know the prevailing rate of ignorance in the society and how people will always blame the woman. You might also want to share this thread with your husband.
Children come become seven. angry
While I congratulate your sister,I think it was unnecessary to keep trying.It's not just about the financial implications but the health of your sister.

Jman06:
Though i am aware that the baby's sex is not totally dependent on the man's sperm, as factors within the females body can suppress the y chromosome in preference to the x chromosome, i think it is stup1d the way Africans put male children above their female counterparts.

Many women of substance have since proven that what a man can do a woman can as well do, yet some people still cry about having male children.

Op, if you really desire to birth male child, i'll advise you to ignore all these people telling you that the man's sperm alone determines the sex of a child because that's not true and is capable of misleading you. Men release both X and Y chromosomes during ejaculation. The Y chromosome,though a fast swimmer, is destroyed before the release of eggs, while the X swims slowly and is more likely t fertilize the egg.

So op, see a good gynaecologist to guide you on the sex selection strategies. Good luck.
@bold,just a little correction.The Y chromosomes do not last long and may die off before the egg is released depending on the timing of sex.
Not that they always die before the egg is released.

Perhaps,the guy got born again.The issue of not wearing make-up or earings looks like a religious thing.

Really there are guys who are insecured and will pretend or endure till they are married before showing their dislike.
Modesty should be a watchword after marriage however for the woman.

You didn't say anything about when you had sex.Postinor has a limited time to work,it must be used within 72hrs of unprotected sex.

hotmum:
Right now hubby is boiling. And threatening to delete everyone of them from his life. He trained this one through school.
Am telling him to calm down lets forget the money and forge ahead. He's so bitter. I cannot begin to explain what he did for each of them.
Pls any suggestions on how to calm him down. I can't even sleep as I do not like to be in the middle of such issues.
I've always wanted a peaceful family
I think you should count your losses and forge ahead.You and your hubby have learnt your lessons.I think your hubby went too far with the loans.A rule of life is to take loans that does not take more than 40% of your income to payback.

Your BIL might pay back later and you just have to wait for him to do that.
There's no way for your hubby to calm down except you keep pacifying him.He is broke now as you say so it will be hard for him not to be offended.

He is back and your mum just accepted him like that?You need to discuss with your mom first.Your mom's reasons may not go well with you but nevertheless,hear her out.
You need to speak with your dad too and ask him what his disappearance was about.It is left to you to forgive him even though he may still not apologise.

And from the medical angle,I think if nothing is done in the next 48 hrs the other might follow suit. this is where the best surgeons all over the world 'll prove themselves, if they can make the other live after the death of the fellow cojoined
It's almost impossible except one is in a coma and the separation is done before he/she dies.

Depends on the father.
Men often are laid back when it comes to receiving praises.They think it's their responsibility and they do what they gotta do like Americans say.
Women enjoy the praises so they get what they wanna get.
Family › Re: Woman Crushed 4 Days To Her Wedding In Abuja by thorpido(m): 4:45pm On May 06, 2017
When it's close to your wedding,let others run the errands for you.
You should stay indoors more and be prayerful.
May God protect us all.

that is unbelievable! do they share the same heart? does it mean the other will have headache the moment his partner does?
A lot of time they share organs but most importantly they share the same blood circulation.If one dies,the corpse becomes poisonous to the other one.

If one dies,the other will die too except they have been separated.

They survive,it depends on what parts of their bodies and internal organs they share.
The oldest conjoined twins lived till above 60yrs.

Most Doctors do not even know best drug combination for their patients yet they are busy making lots of noise. Other professionals like Pharmacists, Radiographers,Nurses don't make this kind of noise. They are attention seekers. Let them go abeg
They don't know drug combinations yet they are moving abroad,passing their exams and working?
You will be amazed how many Nigerian doctors are practicing abroad.

Tyson delivering the hitman himself!!! Wonder why he wants him to avoid Wilder though. He wants Perez that was no match for Povetkin, who was no match for Klitschko.
He could defeat Wilder but he wants him to take some sure victories and get that dominion in the heavyweight first before trying someone like Wilder.
