“I Had Had 2 Miscarriages In The Last Couple Of Years After Really Trying To Get Pregnant. Lemmi Tell You, The Pain. It was unbearable... so much heartache... doctors had told me I could still try again, maybe explore IVF and other alternatives, but there still was no guarantee that the pregnancy would "hold" ... there's never a guarantee."

Wahu went on to state that although she really wanted a third child, she couldn't bear the loss any longer.

I couldn’t bear the thought of trying again, and then losing yet another pregnancy. So as much as I still wanted 3rd child, I gave up trying and said if God wanted to give me a baby, He would... 1 year went by..2...3...nothing. Towards the end of 2021, I remember thinking.." give up the dream" ...but anytime I saw a lady pregnant with her 3rd child, (not 1st, or 2nd, or 4th...just 3rd...it Was such a trigger for me... But I couldn’t keep feeling like this..so in January of 2022, one night...around midnight, I decided to exchange the pain for gratitude...I thanked God for The 2 children he had blessed me with."



Wahu disclosed that she was anxious the entire time she was carrying the third pregnancy. She asked people to be always kind and avoid asking women why they have yet to give birth because they don’t know what they are going through.

The mother of three also encouraged those who have suffered child loss to seek counselling services.
