Reality TV star, Bamike Adenibuyan, better known as BamBam, has opened up about how pregnancy and childbirth changed her body.
The mother of two, who got married to her co-star Teddy A, detailed her experience in a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo.
According to her, she never imagined that she would get that thick in her life, but pregnancy made her move from a size 8 to a size 16.
It’s worth noting that a few years ago, BamBam’s weight gain took netizens by surprise, and some even trolled her for it.
Speaking on this, the 33-year-old influencer stated that she is thankful for having a supportive husband like Teddy A, who didn’t care about her weight gain. She mentioned that her husband wasn’t rigid and accepted her new physical appearance.
BamBam also shed light on how she was diagnosed with preeclampsia and had to have an emergency cesarean section to deliver her baby. She also recounted how she battled postpartum depression due to all the stress.
Her words,
“I would never have imagined that my body would get 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, 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 understand 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 with 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?”
