Singer Wahu Kagwi says she has added almost 30Kgs since welcoming baby number three into her family.
The mother of three however says she is not in a rush to lose the weight as her main focus is taking care of her newborn.
The celebrated singer has on occasions been body shamed after adding weight but she says she is not bothered by naysayers.
Speaking to Mungai Eve during the Launch of Talanta Hela at State House, the singer shared
“People are different. Some people add and people who don’t.
“I have added almost 30 kgs but I am okay with it. The most important thing is to love yourself. I am almost 90Kgs. Just enjoy every phase of yourself,”.
She adds;
“People will always have an opinion about your life, so you just ignore it. I am happy to have three kids because the doctor said I couldn’t get any more kids.
“I am too happy to let any negativity come into my space.”
Wahu had earlier expressed her joy at getting a rainbow baby after doctors said she couldn’t get any more kids.
“I remember the night I posted this…I was alone in my thoughts…Feb 22 – 2022…I was trying to let go of the dream of being a mum of 3.
I’d had 2 miscarriages in the last couple of years, and that had left my heart so broken 💔💔. I’d been told by a couple of doctors that if I wanted to get pregnant, I needed some sort of intervention…it happens as a woman grows older. I chose not to have any interventions…partly because I was grateful to already have two lovely girls.”
In a long message on her social media, Wahu wrote encouraging words to those still waiting for a bundle of joy.
“But mostly I didn’t think I could handle another miscarriage. I said that if God wanted me to carry again, it would happen in time. But years went on …and nothing 😔😔😔. The night I wrote this post, I was in a position of gratitude, as I prepared to close the doors on my dream of carrying again. I silently prayed for anyone who was asking to carry a baby…and then I decided to post this….”
IFRAMELY
She added how she also waited and almost gave up before she got the pleasant surprise.
“…. Little did I know…..God 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😭😭. I’m not sure if I was already PG here, or if I conceived after (it’s a big blur to me! ) All I know…God! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾He makes all things beautiful, and complete in His time 😭😭😭. God gave me Shiru…not because I deserve her…not because I’m so good …just because…..😭😭. I can’t explain how much joy this baby has brought to me!! And to all of us in our home. I pray again, for anyone out there, asking God for a baby…may He hear your prayer 🙏🏾🙏🏾. (But this time God Mimi Niko sawa 😂😝) . I encourage anyone, whatever age you are, whatever condition you may have, it ain’t over till God says so!”
