    Hi Chioma, you narrate your story so eloquently well and with beautiful English, i am so intrigued about your peculiar Accent and use of words gushhh!!! I bumped into your videos and since then i am just glued.
    I am also planning to migrate to Australia from Cameroon, thanks for the trouble you take to be so detailed and precise on all your videos.

    Lovely! I and my kids enjoyed your story and I kept telling them please dont stress me o! God abeg o😢 especially my last born who is just a toddler... Hey Chineke ooo😅 but tips taken, lessons noted and see you someday by God's grace. I promise to give you a shout out and notify you when we arrive. We have learnt alot from your video in preparation for our Australian relocation journey! God bless you Chioma.

    Yesss! The video is finally here. This story feels oh-too-familiar. I feel you!!!
    Our Long haul flights and several layovers with my two toddlers to the Caribbean. The horror! My double stroller was a lifesaver but that too became a burden to carry when they didn’t want to be on it. I ran into an Angel who came to check on me from time to time.
    2nd time, with my 4 kids and they chose to all get air sick at the same time. I was holding four puke bags and having pity stares from people. I vowed to always be that Angel to any struggling Mum I meet on a flight.
    You are the real MVP handling double ‘diaper explosions’. That is the King of all mishaps.😅
    Running the home and getting rid of stuff before traveling is the real headache. I had to face all sorts of car buyers when to sell our car. Relocation needs mental and physical strength.
    You are such a good storyteller. It seems like déjà vu after listening.
    Well done, Mama!👏

    Thanks for your story👍 I had similar experience with my 5 month old son from Istanbul to Ankara ( An hour flight ✈️) but I was miserable…. One Turkish lady volunteered to assist me GOD bless her.
    I almost cried 😢but majority of the flight were men they smiled and said it’s okay for babies and that alone gave me courage. Traveling with kids is another journey

    I completely relate to your situation. How about traveling with two boys, 4 years and 2 years while 8 months pregnant from Nairobi to Canada 😂😂😂. The two year old had tummy issues as well. I was miserable all the way and slept for 3 days straight on arrival. I swore I will never ever travel with more than one child alone.

    Lots of lessons I can learn from here as I with wifey will be travelling early April to Melbourne with two kids 6yrs and 22months old. I am hoping it will be a little bit easier for us. I want to ask if taking a stroller/pull chair will count as part of the number of cabin bags we are allowed to take along with us into the plane?

    • @lifewithchioma
