Nollywood actress Bimpe Akintunde is reflecting on her labour room experience.
Kemi Filani reported a week ago that Bimpe announced that she had welcomed her second child, a baby girl. Sharing photos from her maternity shoot, Bimpe stated that the nine-month journey ended in praise.
On her Instagram page, she revealed that she faced her most sacred dream exactly four weeks ago – the delivery room. Bimpe disclosed that she had never been so scared in her life, and during her 9 months of joining, her life was in His hands, as she had low blood pressure.
Recounting some of the ordeals she went through, she reminisced on how she collapsed in Kenny George during a movie shoot and was in and out of the hospital on emergency treatment about 6 times. She said she had so many scary dreams and death revelations, even from people who didn’t see her or were aware that she was pregnant.
She recalled how she went to the hospital for a checkup and was admitted. She said she was placed on contractions, and after 3 hours, her precious gift from God arrived.
