First-Time Mum Says Pregnancy Hardship Changed Her View on Couples Seeking Help
A first-time Nigerian mother has shared how pregnancy changed her view of couples who seek financial help for hospital bills and baby supplies. She said she once believed such couples had failed to plan properly. However, unexpected setbacks during her own pregnancy forced her to reconsider that opinion. She said she lost money to a scam and later lost her job, while her husband’s salary was reduced. The couple struggled with feeding and could not begin antenatal care until her fifth month. She urged people not to assume that parents asking for support are lazy or irresponsible, noting that pregnancy can bring unexpected financial pressure.
