Dear sister, come around.
When my parents gave birth to me, I automatically became their son, likewise my brothers and sisters. None of us did anything to prove sonship or daughtership.
No test was administered to me to determine whether I will be a good son or not and none will be ever administered.
How does this concern you, one of the signs that you are not welcome in that family is by testing you.
Once you perceive that you are being asked to prove your daughters-in-law, slow down and tell the butterflies in your tummy to calm down.
Once you are being subjected to some inhumane traditions to prove wife materialness without even being married to their ward, calm down first.
For if you prove yourself now, you will have to be proving yourself to them as a worthy sister-in-law, mother of the grandkids, family member, and so on.
For how long, are you going to do that?
Two, they are questioning their child’s decision-making process.
In conclusion, this doesn’t mean the right questions won’t be asked about you, which you must answer.
No parent asks his son/daughter to prove his/her sonship/daughter.
Have a nice week ahead.

Help, I am depressed!
This is tales of a Nursing Dad 8.
I think most of us men don’t talk about what will pass through during our wives’ pregnancies.
First of all, ladies, it’s not easy to impregnate you, guys. If e easy, go do am by yourself now 😀😀😀😀😀
I could remember when my wife told me that she is pregnant with our boy Kyle-XY. From when she told me, my hearts and my mind was up.
It’s like they put a mountain before me at that particular point in time.
I couldn’t sleep very well again.
I was always thinking, praying and hoping that God should deliver my wife safely.
It came to a particular time, I was nearly into depression because, one, I couldn’t explain what’s happening to my wife and two, should she be in pain I don’t know what to do.
Why? because this is a journey that can only be undertaken by one with the support of others.
What I’m trying to say is that It is not only the women that carry the pregnancy, we men, also carried the pregnancy.
We carry the pregnancy in our mind.
We carried it in our thoughts.
We carried pregnancy in our prayers.
We carry pregnancy in our pockets.
In fact the last time I slept 8 hours nonstop was a year ago; before my wife announced that she’s with our boy.
I am by no means undermining the many sacrifices of our mothers but I am by means amplifying the sacrifices of we the fathers, too.
Moreover the husband of a pregnant woman is between heaven and earth, thinking of how his wife will came back home safely with their bouncing baby in her hands.
Furthermore, on the delivery day, you as the father of an expectant baby you’re busy running up and down just to make sure that your baby is healthy and alive and your wife is also hale.
These also involve danger likes taking bikes all around, going up and down, spending money, insults from in-laws, snipe remarks from most Nigerian nurses. Are all these not fatherly sacrifice for pregnancy?
Therefore I celebrate myself as the father of the most beautiful Boy in the world, Kyle-XY.
I celebrate my father too.
I celebrate all the expectant fathers who are doing their jobs excellently.
I also celebrate all the mothers for the sacrifice of giving us those who will bear our names.
May God bless everyone of us in Jesus name Amen

Tales of a Nursing Dad – 6
Topic 6 – Calm Down.
I know this is a controversial topic on Nigerian social media space – The caesarian section or vaginal birth.
I know none of them is a sin and I could have shared a story from our experience but I did not have my wife’s permission for now till 2026 (I will write the article after this one and schedule it).
Apart from the cost of the surgical procedure, the #talesofANursingdad is telling you, if you see the instruments for the process and you love your wife, you will not wish for it.
Now, to that woman who had assisted non-natural delivery, I am telling you, the process did not make you less mom than the woman who gave birth through the other mean. You are MVP and God blesses you. Amen.
P.S.: Here is the link for Tales of a Nursing Dad – 7 which will be published on 11/06/2026. See you then.
Did you have natural birth or cesarian section?

Think about this axiom; GirlfriEND, BoyfriEND, FriEND but FamILY which mean I Love You.
I bless the name of the Lord that I have parents who show me the way of Lord, in deeds and in words because I can say it adequately I learnt Bible from home.
I will also not fail to appreciate the Most High for the opportunity of having siblings. My brothers and sisters are truly brethen.
Always supporting and always praying.
Thank you Jesus for my wonderful family.
Thank You over my father.
Thank You over my mum.
Thank You over Rachel.
