Former Big Brother Naija housemate turned actress, Bamike Adenibuyan, also known as Bambam, has opened up about the effects her first pregnancy left her.

In an interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, she revealed how her sexual scandal had affected her and how she got married to her best man.

Going further, Bambam revealed the complication that followed her first birth. She said she had preeclampsia and had almost lost her life and that of her child.

She said her child had been limp because she had to undergo an emergency surgery.

Bambam revealed that her childbirth had left her with depression, massive weight gain because of her condition. She also revealed how she felt during the hateful comments left for her over her weight gain.

An excerpt of her interview read, “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, and 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?”
