60 Year Old Makes History as Oldest to Give Birth Using IVF in Africa - Is She Too Old?

Posted in: , ,

Should there be an upper limit for being a mother? 60 year old Mrs Omolara Irurhe (real picture above) had been looking of a child for 31 years after she got married before she was able to give birth to a baby girl using Invitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment at a Specialist Hospital in Lagos.

The Nation reports that Mrs Irurhe started the IVF treatment in 2010 and said her faith in God and her belief in modern medicine helped her go through the process, after many years of childlessness in marriage. She said her husband, Mr Adekunle Irurhe's Catholic belief of one man one wife made him not to marry another woman and stood by her through all the years.

"I believe we should not limit God and what the doctors can do in this modern age. I believe this is the appointed time. I was very hopeful throughout the years I was childless and I remained focused on God. We went to many hospitals but we didn’t give up,”

7 Things You Don’t Get to Do Once You Have Children

Posted in: , ,

After kids you don’t get to:

Be Selfish – Remember when you could order a dessert, or a smoothie, or a sandwich with chips, and no one asked for a bite, piece, chunk, stuck their finger in it, put their mouth on it or stole the whole thing?

Or what about wearing a sweater that you’d never have to give up because some little person said she would be fine without one, but was wrong? Or being able to use the entire coverage of the umbrella (I mean any coverage)? Yes, I remember those things too, vaguely.

Aside from the fact that you share your things to make your children happy, it’s literally an illegal parenting move to not share – because it goes against everything you’ve taught them since like … birth! Now that J is a preteen he mooches my Starbucks. MY SACRED LATTES! (I may need to revisit how important sharing is.)

Too Young To Have Ears Pierced? Kim and Kanye Criticized For Piercing North West's Ears

Posted in: , , ,

One of the milestones Kim Kardashian and Kanye West marked for their daughter North West was getting her ears pierced for her first birthday, and the little girl got diamond stud earrings too. But now, some people on Twitter are asking if the parents are right to pierce her ears and if at 1-year-old, a child is old enough to wear earrings.

Personally, I am in support of North West's piercing and earrings, they look great on the little girl. In Nigeria, I think most baby girls get their ears pierced before they leave the hospital after delivery. If not, the mums get someone to do it before the first three months. Am I right?

Check out some of the comments on Twitter and share your thoughts in the comments. Would you or did you already get piercings for your children at young ages?
