It's high time we normalize offering help to new mums while visiting, don't just go visiting to say "eku ewu omo" and expect her to serve you food and drinks while she's trying to stay afloat. May we not choke on fanta o... #newmums #naijamums #motherhood

Here are 10 kids’ shows that teach your toddler Mathematics. Please share with a parent who needs this.

What’s one food you can eat every day without getting tired?

we have these little chats about how to express their feelings without hurting each other. It’s not always easy (trust me, sibling wahala is real! 😅), but I remind them that kindness is a strength, not a weakness. What’s one thing you’re passing on to your kids?

One thing I’m intentionally passing on to my boys is the power of kindness. Growing up, my mum used to say, ‘Treat people well, not because of who they are, but because of who you are.’ That has stuck with me. So now, when my boys argue or fight,

Apparently her husband caught us🤭, Then we heard her husband sigh and say, “I know, it’s 2-zero… but watch me spit out the incoming king.” The wife said “Sir, sir, please, let’s respect genetics!”😂 Awon silent investors 🤣

Myself and the other two mums in the room exchanged that silent but powerful look—the “Sis, we see you, we’re proud of you, thank you for your service to the sisterhood” kind of look. 👏🏾😂

Met a pregnant mum at the hospital today, and her two kids? A photocopy of her. No trace of their father anywhere. 🤣

So let’s be intentional about the emotional tone we set. Let’s raise kids who don’t find peace uncomfortable. Kids who won’t confuse drama for passion or chaos for love. Kids who know that kindness and stability are normal. Because peace isn’t boring. It’s safe.

This doesn’t mean we fake perfection (because let’s be real, parenting can be messy! 😂). But it does mean modeling healthy relationships —love that is steady, safe, and strong. Because one day, they’ll build their own homes, and guess what? They’ll repeat what they know.

Are We Teaching Our Kids That Peace is Boring? 🧵 Ever noticed how some people can’t sit in peace? If things are too calm, they start looking for chaos. Some adults don’t even feel “loved” unless there’s drama. 😳 Now, imagine raising kids who grow up thinking like this…

If your husband offers to help with a chore and says, “Relax, I’ve got this,” are you actually relaxing, or are you low-key worried he’ll do it halfway and give you extra work?

If you’re a mum (or know one) who’s struggling emotionally after childbirth, please speak up. Ask for help. It’s not your fault, and it’s okay to not be okay. Let’s normalize talking about ALL aspects of maternal mental health.

This story is tragic and hard to comprehend, but it’s a reminder that mental health support for new mums is not optional—it’s essential. We don’t know this woman’s full story, but what if she was battling postpartum psychosis and had no help?

Unfortunately, we have barely scratched the surface on conversations about maternal mental health. We only hear about Postpartum Depression, and even that is stigmatized. But how many women are suffering in silence because we’re not talking about this enough?

Here’s the thing: Postpartum Psychosis is a medical emergency. It’s not a character flaw or a lack of love for the baby. It’s a serious mental health condition that requires immediate help.

There’s a story making rounds about a woman who reportedly killed her newborn hours after delivery because of her hatred for her husband. 💔 While it’s easy to jump to conclusions, let’s pause and talk about something not often discussed: POSTPARTUM PSYCHOSIS (PP).

Imagine giving birth, but instead of joy, your mind feels like a battlefield. For some women, this happens within hours or days after delivery. For some, they feel some sort of hatred while breastfeeding the baby.

We’ve all heard about Postpartum Depression (PPD), but how many of us know about Postpartum Psychosis? It’s rare but VERY real, and it’s not just “baby blues.” PP often comes with hallucinations, paranoia, or even thoughts of harming oneself or the baby.
