“I Experienced Depression, Postpartum, Preeclampsia During Pregnancies” – BBNaija’s Bambam

Published

on

Former BBNaija housemate, Bamike Adenibuyan, popularly known as Bambam has shared her story of battling preeclampsia and postpartum depression during her pregnancies.

She made this known in an interview on Wednesday, with media personality Chude Jideonwo, where she recounted her struggles with motherhood, stating how her placenta had detached from her baby before they arrived at the hospital.

The mother of two also discussed how being pregnant changed her body, claiming that she went from a size 8 to a 14/16 and that she also had to battle with skin tags and breakouts of acne, among other things.

She continued by saying that she was able to get through those trying times with her husband’s help.

She said, “I would never have imagined my body getting this thick, no jokes. I look in front of the mirror and thank God for supportive husbands like mine. Imagine I had a man who wasn’t open to the transition phases I went through with each pregnancy.

“My second pregnancy was even more merciful than the first. What! Zendaya! I went from maroon to black, I had skin tags, and I had acne breakouts. Went from size 8 to 14/16. I was in shock. I went through postpartum depression. I was a mess. I did not understand. I transformed literally. But I mean, look at the girl. Now you know why she did what she had to do.

“I had to ask the doctor, ‘is that my baby?’ ‘How is she so white looking?’ She had grey eyes, and now they’re brown. She looked so different. I had preeclampsia during her pregnancy; she had detached from my placenta by the time I arrived at the hospital. So, the thought of losing her if I hadn’t been diligent with my antenatal classes or taking my vitamins.

“We tried going to have her abroad, but there were a lot of setbacks, so we had to settle. And the hospital we got, thank God, they were so diligent. Imagine they didn’t do my urinalysis test, and the doctor didn’t call at the time that he did.”

I took your number and told you I d push your career cos out of all the people I paid that day you were the only one who said THANK YOU.

NEW JOY etcetera, and you kept flying.
