However, this did not work out and her blood pressure only made her weak.
It was then that the Doctors and her husband had to force her to undergo a CS section to save both her life and that of the baby’s since her heartbeat was dropping.
“They induced me because I was insisting I wanted a natural birth. So ikakataa kabisa. I was feeling pain but sina hata nguvu. Hiyo pressure ilikuwa imenimaliza nguvu. Niko in pain but si dilate. Heartbeat ya mtoto inateremka chini. I was forced to go for a CS and cried as I didn’t want a CS.”
During the surgery the obstetric gynae realized that the baby’s heartbeat was dropping due to the umbilical cord which was wrapped around her neck. To make matters worse, seems that Size 8’s pressure had affected the baby’s development as she was born weighing 1.7 Kgs.
Hours after the baby arrived, Size 8’s condition got worse and she passed on before meeting her grandchild.
She is however grateful since everything happens at its perfect timing. Though she lost her mother, she happened to receive the greatest gift in life.
