“I have no one to talk to. I can not bring myself down to hûrting my own child the way my mother is doing to me now. I gave birth she refused to come stay with me. She said she can not stay in a place she is not respected.
What happened is that the last omugwo she came to my house. She and my husband had an argument and my husband slapped her in the process. Because of that she left and my husband did not buy any omugwo thing for her. She stayed only 2 months instead of 3 months.
This is my 2nd baby and I need her here but she refused to come simple because I supported my husband. She said my husband should do the omugwo but my husband doesn't know how to take care of a baby and my mother inlaw said she is not coming too.
My first baby is still 2 years. He gives me stress too much and couple with my new baby. I don't know what to do. Yesterday night my baby was crying too much he said I should carry him to the parlour the baby is disturbing him.
I have been begging my mom to come and she is wickèding me. I don't know how to handle all these things alone”
