Thirdly, this one is based on the agreement of the couple

In some cases they share it

For instance, the husbands mother would stay for 5 months while the wifes mother stays for the same 5 months

So it depends on the mutual agreement of the couple

Though personally I will prefer the wife's mother does it because she understands her daughter more

That's what I feel personally 🤗

Secondly, yes it is limited to only family members preferably mothers

I stand to be corrected 🌝

U can keep all the questions coming 😂😂

First and foremost, there is hardly a situation whereby an omugwo caregiver will be unavailable

Do you know y??

In the case whereby both the mother of the husband and the wife are no more, available aunty's are very much welcomed

So basically it is rare
