Chief Executive Officer of the luxury hair brand, ‘Oh My Hair’ and sister of renowned media personality, Serwaa Amihere, Mami Gyamfua Yeboah has disclosed how unready she was for a child.
According to her she was very unhappy and thinking if the worse when she got pregnant but her mother was very supportive which came as a shock to her.
Narrating her experience in an interview on Joyfm’s Career Trail programme she said, “My mom was very supportive surprisingly because when I got pregnant it was shock to me. I was not happy and I was thinking of the worst but my mom was eavesdropping and my mum being a typical African woman you don’t lock your door so, she just barges into the room and heard my sister and I talking and she says hey you’re pregnant”.
“I started crying and she says no don’t cry you’re going to have the baby and I said no I’m not I’m only 22 I can’t have the baby and she says yes you will. The moment you decide to do what will make you pregnant that means you’re ready to have a child so you will have a child” she disclosed.
She furthered stated that her mother didn’t leave her side until she traveled out of the country and went through her whole first and second trimester.
“She was very helpful doing everything that I needed and made sure that it was quite an easy one for me” she added.
She advised parents who throw out their children when they are pregnant to put a stop to it describing it as very bad.
“In as much as that’s not what you want, bringing a child into the world is the biggest blessing that you could ever have. I always say this my daughter is the biggest blessing that I’ve ever had in my life she’s brought so many good things to me and I’m so grateful to my mum for pushing me to keep her” she emphasized.
