My husband and I were once in this position. We wanted to start looking for land and build our home, but we felt uncomfortable with the fact that his aged mom would have to keep stressing about paying rent.

We sacrificed and completed her two bedroom home and built a store in front. At least we are young and have strength to hustle further to build our own; but an aged woman is tired- the best gift for any aged parent is to spend their remaining years on earth resting with little stress.

I think deep down inside you know the right thing is to build for your mom- your heart is tagging you in that direction. If not, you would have just gone ahead and built yours.

I know it’s tough, but trust me, you will never regret it; you will have peace of mind that will allow you visit her with loads of joy.

And you will have more than enough to build yours.

God blessed my husband and I with our dream home- favor upon favor just kept overflowing and we are now enjoying it with peace of mind.

I wish you all the best!!

My dear,
I understand how you feel- you want your wife to show the same kind of love and care/ even more towards her matrimonial home, as she does her family.It can be very painful, but take heart; she has known her family all her life, and that attachment and sense of dedication to them is naturally very very strong. Her attachment to you and your home is now forming.

If you want to have a discussion with her, please please please do not bring up her family.
Your main objective is to help her see the need to think about her own household and contribute to it emotionally and financially.
Sit down as a family in a loving way and discuss financial and emotional obligations towards the home- agree on each person's responsibilities and set out expectations for each person. Who takes care of what (contribution to joint savings account/emergency money for the family, family projects, house bills, grocery money, transportation costs, rent etc. Start by emphasizing your responsibilities including money you give her to spend on herself (this makes every woman feel special- even if she also has other responsibilities alloted to her, it is awesome to feel that your husband will cater to you each month- this allows you to keep your gaze on him thus breaking the attachment with family).

After discussing what you will be responsible for including taking care of her needs, ask her if she is okay taking care of A, B, C in a very loving way (results oriented conversation remember). I emphasize- Do not bring up her family in this matter please; once she has contributed to the home, whatever is left she can do whatever she deems fit. Even if it is just one thing she agrees to, that is fine - when kids come, there will be so many other things she will pick up without being told so. Also ensure that, every quarter or so, or whenever the dynamics in your home change, you guys sit down and review these obligations, as a change in circumstances requires a change in strategy. Do all these in LOVE please.

Going about it this way will ensure that she contributes to the home, but doesnt feel like she is being suppressed with respect to helping your household or helping/not helping her family (that decision should be one she concludes on after much reflection on her own part).

I wish you all the best. May God's wisdom, love, joy, and peace continue to fill your home.

Please, is the quality of cast iron similar to that of wrought iron? I know they differ slightly in composition and how they are formed into designs; but aside that, are there any pros of one over the other? Thanks

rotecch77:


Yes, those guys are very good
I still have some fascinating designs on my archive..... awaiting potential clients will get those any time we are called

I think this is because boundaries exist when it comes to a man's territory; there is some kind of code of ethics and respect that exists between men- thus the father-in-law respects himself and would never intrude into matters concerning his son-in-laws home and how it is run (financially, spiritually etc). Women, on the other hand, are nurturers, and love to teach, correct, grow etc and this sometimes results in chaos in an in-laws home, as boundaries are not respected and emotions are simmering.

For example, a father-in-law is not invited to help his son-law in his business (which is his territory) whereas a mother-in-law comes in to help her daughter-in-law at home when she gives birth (note that this is also a woman's territory. I believe that men would be equally annoyed and have issues with their father-in-laws if he came in and started telling the man how to run his business, who to employ, which business strategies are the best etc (this is how women feel sometimes with their mother-in-laws).

Another example is that a father-in-law would not want to sleep over at his son-in-laws home what more stay for a long extended period (if he visits in another country, he would probably stay for a maximum of one month whereas mom-in-laws could be there for over 6 months).

Women tend to be more emotional (this trait in women is what makes them caring, intuitive, and sensitive to the families needs; but it can also create problems if not managed in tensed up situations).

Men tend to be more logical (this is helpful in situations that do not require sentiments in making decisions, but can be a stumbling block in situations where deeper understanding and empathy is required).

NOTE: I am generalizing so this does not apply in all cases.

MY HUMBLE SUBMISSION

richyblink

I know you have sent her packing already, but another thing to note is that some of these nannies/househelps are paid large sums of money to take pictures of the children they are taking care of (especially nudes), and these pictures are sold to peudophiles. Please please be careful with your next nanny/help; do not let them sleep in the same room with the kids and maybe you and your wife could take turns bathing and putting the kids to sleep. Also try and buy a nannycam for the kids room just to monitor what is happening there when nannies go in there. Wishing you all the best

Dearest OP,
Thank you for sharing. This topic really touched my heart. I would like to add my personal view on it too.

My husband and I are from two distinct socio-economic backgrounds with regards to culture (different countries), societal class, family economical power, and exposure (mind you, these are all factors that are man-made hence can be overcome and redefined). They can however pose a great challenge, but if approached well, also provide a learning platform for success.

I always find myself pondering on an unknown quote that says "We see the world as we are and not as it really is”. Could this really be true It seems that our different perspectives of life are shaped by our background, experiences, and innate belief systems. This has therefore made me come to appreciate the following:
-That there is never one universal ‘truth'; everybody’s ‘truth' is valid and has to be acknowledged.
-The same things that we may be willing to accept from our side of the family can get us so defensive when it is coming from our in-laws (this applies to both men and women).
-It is much easier to accept another’s actions when you come to know the reasons behind the action; it does not mean you agree to it, but at least you get to learn more about why your partner does what he/she does, why in-laws behave the way they do etc. and this helps in the way you react to things.
-Choosing to see things from positive perspectives until proven otherwise helps you to build stronger and wiser relationships with people.


WISDOM WISDOM WISDOM
This is key; knowledge without wisdom is fruitless.
Playing the angel’s advocate, let me use the example of your in-laws wanting to pay for your children's education.

In-laws point of view
They are coming from a place of love.
They want their children (including spouses) and grandchildren to have a better life than they did right from the get go; they would not want to watch them suffer (in their perspective).
They want to help reduce the burden on their children (including spouses) in whatever way they can with whatever means they have.
In their opinion, the best way they can provide support to reduce the burden of their daughter, her husband, and their entire household is to help out with the children’s school fees that way you and your wife can focus on other financial responsibilities (in their opinion, that might be better than the day to day responsibilities etc.).

NB: It could have been your parents doing same for your family.

Wife's point of view
She is coming from a place of love.
She wants the best for the kids.
She has been used to some level of comfort and window of opportunities that she wants her kids to enjoy; and even much more.
She trusts her parents, knowing that they are coming from a place of love, and embraces their support hence does not see the big deal in allowing them to help out.
She believes your children will have a better footage at a brighter future with the kind of education her parents can afford for them.
She believes that your desire to provide for your family should not stop close family from supporting whenever they can.

Your point of view
You are coming from a place of love
You want the best for the kids
The childrens education is something you would like to take care of solely without relying on your inlaws because it gives you a sense of fulfilment as regards being responsible to your family.
You have concerns about how subsequent fees will be paid if your in-laws pass away; also, how do you afford the other financial obligations associated with being in that school example school trips, buying props for school functions, needs of children based on what they see other kids having etc
Your in-laws paying for the childrens education may open up a window for them to make too many key decisions regarding your children’s future
You do not want to be in a position where your in-laws do not respect you as the head of your family.

In this case, you all have valid ‘truths’ (concerns), which are coming from a good place; the question is how to get this across to the other parties in love and understanding, whilst avoiding bruised egos, misunderstandings, unmet emotional needs etc. thus leading to unending conflict. This is where wisdom comes in.

ROLE OF WISDOM
[b]
In-laws[/b]
-They would have told their daughter how they want to support you both and asked her to discuss it with you for both of you to finally decide if it is a good idea or not; they could also have called you both to explain what they want to do and tell you guys to go and think about it and decide, emphasising that they would respect any decision you make (this is a way of teaching their daughter a key principle of marriage, which is that a man and wife should always come together to make decisions for the family; this also helps to build love and respect between you all and foster confidence in your ability to make sound decisions for your family)

Your wife
Your wife would then discuss what her parents suggested and ask you what you thought about it giving way for an open discourse where each person’s view is understood properly and a final decision taken. That way decisions are not made without your input and imposed on you (nobody likes that be it husband or wife).

You
You give your in-laws the benefit of the doubt, knowing that they are in a position to help hence want to do so in love in order to lessen the burden on you and your wife in providing for your family (they may or may not be looking down on you, but their approach may have been offensive); you therefore receive the suggestion with an open heart and gently have a discussion with your wife concerning it, laying out all your concerns and listening to hers as well; finally a compromise is made with a final decision.

The compromise could be:
1. Grandparents pay for the kids education with all parties agreeing on which school is best from the choices grandparents suggested.
2. Grandparents do not need to help out with financing the kids education; let them continue to go to a school you can afford; however it will be greatly appreciated if grandparents buy educational resources or finance extra-educational curricular activities for the kids example the summer school, educational trips, music classes, soccer camps etc
At the end it is a win win situation, and the kids ultimately benefit since everybody’s concern is their welfare.

This is just the way I have learned to do things in order to promote love, respect, trust, unity, and tolerance in my marriage. It might not work for all, of course, but I am sure there are a few things one can pick out, just as I have done from your write up and the numerous responses on the thread.

Wishing you and others the very best in marital and other relationships.

From elective CS to natural labour to emergency CS; God was with me all the way

I was scheduled for an elective CS for the 7th of September due to my history of an auto-immune disease.

On the 6th, I started having slight cramps in the afternoon, and by evening I was having major contractions with short intervals; oya time to go to the hospital. I am thinking, "this my boy does not want to come through CS oooo

Got to the hospital and I was already 4cm dilated, but I could handle the pains from the contractions; so I then decided to go on with natural labour unless it became too hectic

At 6cm, I stopped dilating and my little one's heart rate kept dipping at every contraction. Chai fear wanted to take over me, but I remembered all the promises of God and just focussed on them

Doctor said they should prepare me for emergency CS; I am there thinking, "warris all dis"

Whilst on the table in theatre, I just kept praying to hear the cry of baby as soon as he was pulled out; I did not think I could bear to face silence; once again the Lord I serve assured me that all will be well

My little one came out screaming and crying and yelling, and tears just flowed down my face, and i Kept saying thank you Jesus, I am a mom, thank you Jesus

He was examined, and all was well, and my prince given to me; we were in hospital for two days; just got home and since oga is sleeping I am like let me quickly drop this BS oooo

All in all, God showed me that no matter the road I took, the plans I made, the nooks and crooks, his say is the final say; he is indeed the God of awesome wonder.

I thank all the mamas on this thread for their contributions and love; I know my husband is always here peeping on guest mode so oya you too chop kiss; your love and support is overwhelming. God bless us all.

Good afternoon ooooo. Abeg mama's that gave birth via caesarian section,before before or now now abeg, what's the recovery process like.
The kind of pain am feeling ehn, Ayam tired. I hate being a liability but as he b now ehn, i cannot even do anything by myself. Body just dey ache me anyao.
My mum is with me so am just trying to pretend Ayam fine so she doesn't feel bad or something but abeg I am not fine.
For how long will my body ache?
I can't even lie down on my back, side or whatever, to stand-up is war
Am not complaining ooo but I need encouragement.
My threshold for pain has passed it's limit.... Finding it difficult to cope.

Hey dear,

First of all kudos for being strong, and staying positive. The journey is not an easy one, but I know you are a fighter so no wahala. My mind is scattered right now lol, but I have managed to list out things I was taught in the hospital and things I am doing on my own that have helped me; you could play around with these suggestions and modify to suit your own needs depending on what suits you best.

Please take all your pain medication; this will help you concentrate on getting much better, and looking after the lo. When you are in pain, you will not be able to focus on your recovery process.

Be honest with your mom about what you are going through; and allow her to offer you all the love and support she can give; relax and be pampered; you deserve it; also make little effort each day to be a bit more active, but not doing anything that will hurt your recovery process though.

For me, most of my pain is from all the gas within my system (gas enters during the surgery); I drink a lot of water (please do not drink with a straw as this introduces more gas, and stay away from gassy foods); i made sure I started walking on the first day though I understand not everybody will be able to; but please try to move because lots of movements helps to expel all the gas (increased bowel movement) and also gets you energised; Anisea tea also helps reduce the gas so you can check a health shop for it

Do breathing exercises; the intake of oxygen helps your body muscles recover and helps with circulation; take a deep breath through your nose and then breathe out through your mouth; holding a pillow against your stomach, breathe in through your nose, and then cough out through your mouth with the pillow still held against your tummy so it doesn't hurt so much when you cough out

When you are standing up from the bed, take in a deep breath as you swing your legs over

I normally use the lo to thank God for little things and that keeps my mind off the challenges; for example, in the morning when I am feeding him, I would say something like " TPV, thank God for mummy oooo, that mummy came out alive and is here to feed you, TPV please help me thank God for grandma and daddy who have been so helpful to me, TPV lets thank God that we could pay our medical bills, TPV today mummy could not produce much colostrum but ask God to help her so that next time will be a different story, TPV mummy has to get all this gas out of her stomach oooo so ask your father in heaven to help her". This way I am forced to always celebrate little milestones, and just be in the presence of God

I also make declarations every morning about how my day should go; even if it does not go that way (for example I could not drink as much water or walk as long as I wanted to) at least I still make little progress in achieving something

But please; try to move move move; even if it is just walking to and fro in your bedroom; you gots to keep moving; at your own pace, but challenge yourself each day

Most importantly enjoy your lo; the devil has a way of stealing our joy by bombarding our thoughts and emotions with the cant's and dont's etc; just keep praising God and steer your thoughts away from the challenges; it is well and won't stop being well. Know that you are not alone in this; but we are more than conquerers

God bless. xx

Beautiful ladies,
Thank you all for the best wishes, warm prayers, and all the love. I just can not stop thanking this good good Father. Motherhood is not easy, but it helps you discover that inner strength within. Praying for all the beautiful mamas yet to conceive, go through their pregnancy journey, labour, deliver, and nurture their lovely young ones.

God bless us all.

Please how can I track contractions because I'm not really myself and my Dr told me to track it and send to him

Hey dear,
If you can download the baby bump app or any other app that has a contraction tracker, it makes things easier; you just click start when the contraction starts and stop when it ends; the app automatically calculates the time interval between contractions and also stores the duration of each contraction; you can also add notes with respect to the intensity of the contractions and other things experienced.
If not, you will have to do it manually as other mama's have suggested.

Congrats peggygee

Bump Tuesday

Us @ 39 weeks, 4 days; can not wait to meet my handsome little one very soon.

flyingangel:
Hello mama's in d house.

Have been a silent readers since beginning of August pending when I will get my edd to join a team. I went to miatama general hospital on Friday 1st of September for d first time since I missed my period and was told I was 2months,3days pregnant and dat my baby is doing good.

I was excited like never before but it was short lived as 2hrs after I left d hospital I started feeling serious cramps, thought it was because I ate pounded yam n pepper soup for lunch so I decided to sleep d pains off only for me to wake up with excruciating pains 1hr later with heavy bleeding.

It was as if I was dieing, couldn't stand, talk, sit, eat or lay down it was as if my tummy was been removed by force. I decided to take hot milk maybe it will help reduce the pain. 5minutes later blood clot started coming out and I knew my baby was going, I cried, prayed n begged my baby to stay but he didn't

I went to d hospital the next day 2nd September and was told there is no baby in my womb again. I was in total shock cos didn't know what happened within 2hrs of leaving the hospital to d bleeding?
I am still asking myself if it was d food I ate or d warm milk I took dat took my baby away? Or the scan dat was done or Wht could have happened?

May the God of all comfort wrap his loving arms around you and wipe all your tears away; he is a faithful God who will surely stay by your side and fulfil his promise. Stay blessed.

peggygee:

PRAYER MONDAY

Sweet father,
We thank you for yet another day in this beautiful world you have blessed us with; we are grateful for your presence in our lives and how you work through people and situations to put a smile on our faces. You are just too much, and we hail you.

Lord,
Please hold each of our hands through this journey, and help us to remain joyful despite the little discomforts here and there. Help us to trust you with our whole hearts and minds; let us continue to burn with the hope that the Lord that has started something new in our individual lives will bring it to perfect completion no matter what.

Father,
Give us a reason to smile and rejoice each day; putting aside our fears and anxieties. Protect our families from destruction, pain, confusion, lack, and tears; instead, let us enjoy life in abundance.

By the power you granted to us, we declare that each and every woman carrying your seed will bear fruit in due time; and that this fruit will continue to bloom as days go by; each and every child will be a blessing to their parents and the community as a whole.

Lord,
We also commit each mama that has given birth into your hands; that this new season will not be a burden and overwhelm them; depression will be far from them; you will send helpers that will support them during this period; that they will enjoy this season despite all the changes, and they will have reason to smile; that you will provide the financial, physical, and spiritual means required to cater for these little angels; that you will remove any stumbling block in their path and clear all weedy bushes; that destruction will not know their home address.

Good good father,
We say a BIG thank you for blessing our ttc sisters with children to call their own; because you are a faithful father and you have already promised every woman who desires the fruit of the womb, we continue to stand in faith with them and say thank you for the gift. Thank you for granting them their hearts' desires; thank you for blessing them with the gift of children; we continue to say thank you, thank you, thank you.

Let your spirit help us to remember that you are indeed the King of Kings, Lord of Lords, the first and the last; in Jesus mighty name we pray. AMEN

Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

MY BS
I decided to sing the above lyrics because that is exactly how I feel..Jesus has just been too too good to me

My pregnancy was uneventful, little MS that disappeared with time, by 15 weeks I was already feeling the baby movement and my bump came up very early....I battled with PIH (pregnancy induced hypertension ), by the time I was 32weeks gone I decided to come and have my baby in lagos then I registered in a private hospital and decided to try the general hospital as well, on the day I registered in the general hospital I was placed on admission immediatly because protein in urine was high as well as the high blood pressure, well I stayed and by the time I was 35weeks and 3 days an emergency cs was carried out on me...I went into the theater and came out victorious with my tiny little beautiful baby girl, I still don't know what she weighed because the whole staff in the theater were awed by her skin colour, my baby was the definition of pink and not a single patch of black was found on her...I had to sign to be discharged against doctors advice because the hospital still wanted to keep me after 5 days of the cs, I told the doctor I can't cope alone with the baby, I needed help and the nurses are not ready to lift a finger in helping...so we got home on the 6th day after the cs and baby was named Adanne Chizara'm Mitchell...

All glory to God for fulfilling his words in my life, this was my second pregnancy after 5 yrs. .God is still on the thome all we need to do is call on him and he will be riright there to answer..

Benignasweety I'm so sorry I Cldnt see you and zion before coming to lagos, I still hope to meet you when I return to the east..

We praise you because you are just too much; words can not even describe how awesome, powerful, loving, merciful, and joyful you are. Thank you for always being there for us; in all seasons.
Lord, as you have started a good thing in each of our lives, so shall you finish it; bringing all to perfection.
Father, you know each and every ladies heart; her fears and weaknesses, her concerns and discomforts; please meet each of us at our point of need; reassuring us that all is well, and giving us the strength to face each day.
Let each of us focus on the blooming flowers and the shining sun and the calm seas and the birds chirping happily into the blue sky.
Let our days be full of joy and hope; may this season be enjoyed.
Continue to mould our little ones in your perfect image; physically and spiritually.
Take control of every labour room to be visited by each and every lady on here; that your will will be done.
We also pray for all ladies looking to you to fulfil your promise of making them mothers; we declare it already done.

I welcomed my pretty princess on the 7th through elective CS.

BS
Nothing eventful. Was wheeled into the theatre, the docs battled with the spinal anaesthesia for sometime. I was pricked multiple times before they finally got it.
Anyways everything else went well, my baby was brought out screaming her lungs that the docs had to tell her sorry

Today was her naming and darling Jazzyjazz came through for me with her famous puffpuff. Abuja mamas association

Join us to eat our puffpuff.
PS. We forgot to snap until it was almost finished

Cc. Cappo ToyosiR

We thank God for a safe delivery. Chai that puffpuff is calling my name ooo. xx

Good morning ladies,

@ Phlakkeys; may the God of all comfort be with you and your family during this period and thereafter in Jesus mighty name. Stay strong and blessed my sister. xx
