"Awwn the sweetest. It’s called “omugwo” when children have babies, their moms come and look after them and the new baby for an extended period. Sometimes as long as 3-6months."
@Lshamion stated:
"First time mom here and I’ve never seen babies worn on the back like that! Can someone explain? Very interesting and little one looks cozy."

"Girl my grandma came from Turkey and bathed my newborn in olive oil every day. My American husband was horrified."
@Dr. Bevilly commented:
"I know that was the best sleep he’s ever gotten after that bath, too."
@TeeTeeTop said:
"So sweet but a month with somebody in my house would drive me crazy."

"Nigerian mothers are so hardworking. I’m so sad I didn’t get their energy like when my aunt pulls up, food is serve, house is clean like brand new, we going shopping."
@ellex841 added:
"In Yoruba and Igbo culture the mothers/mother-in-laws step in to support during the postpartum stages. I love this."
