ASK AUNTY VERO

From my mail box....askauntyvero@gmail.com

Dear aunty Vero,
          I hope this mail meets you well, I would like you and your audience to solve this big problem for me.


I am six months pregnant for my first child and my mum and mother in law are giving me headache, they both want to come for my omugwo(taking care of me and baby after birth)
My mum said she will be the first to come for the omugwo, my mother in law is also insisting she will be the one to come first. I totally understand why they are both dragging this being that hubby and I are both first born so this is the first grandchild for both families, I would welcomed both of them both my house isn't big its a room and parlour kind of house.
I have begged my mum to wait let my mum in law come first she said no that its the girl's mum that comes first
Please what should I do, how do I handle this....

Thank you.

This is dicey, where I am from its the girl's mum that comes first but that doesn't mean it can't be changed.

Since it is causing problem and your house isn't big enough you just have to find a way to beg one to step down even if you have to blackmail them, tell them they are giving you unnecessary stress which is not good for their grandchild.
Besides, what's your husband take on this , the house belongs to both of you so you make the decision together.
