🌸A MOTHER’S STORY — Every Woman Has a Story

I NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO TAKE MY BABY HOME

When I discovered that I was pregnant, I was filled with hope. Like any mother, I imagined holding my baby, bringing my baby home and watching my family grow.

But life was difficult.

Money was a constant struggle, and accessing antenatal care was not easy. I knew I needed to go to the clinic, but finding the money for registration, transport and other expenses was a challenge. I kept telling myself that I would go when I had enough money.

Days became weeks, and weeks became months.

Before I knew it, much of my pregnancy had passed without the regular antenatal care I had hoped to receive.

I worried about my baby, but I also had to worry about surviving each day.

Then one day, something didn’t feel right.

I went to the health facility hoping that everything would be okay. I was frightened, but I still held on to hope that I would hear my baby’s heartbeat and be reassured that everything was fine.

Instead, I received news that changed my life.

My baby had been stillborn.

There are no words that can truly describe what it feels like to prepare yourself to become a mother, only to leave the health facility without your baby.

I had imagined taking my baby home.

Instead, I went home with empty arms.

For a long time, I asked myself so many questions. I wondered whether things could have been different if I had been able to receive antenatal care throughout my pregnancy. I will never know for certain what caused the loss of my baby.

But my experience taught me something I will never forget.

Antenatal care matters.

It gives mothers an opportunity to have their pregnancies monitored, receive important information, and have possible concerns identified and managed by healthcare professionals.

I also learned that sometimes a mother may genuinely want to go to the clinic but simply cannot afford the costs involved.

That is why I believe mothers need support — not judgement.

No woman should feel ashamed because she could not afford antenatal registration. No mother should have to choose between putting food on the table and seeking care during pregnancy.

I share my story in memory of the baby I never got to take home.

And I share it for the mothers who are currently struggling.

Please don’t give up on seeking antenatal care because of financial difficulties. Reach out. Ask for help. Speak to someone you trust.

Because behind every pregnancy is a mother carrying hope, dreams and a future she has not yet seen.

Every woman has a story.
Every mother deserves care.
And every mother deserves someone willing to walk beside her.

🌸A MOTHER’S STORY: Every Woman Has a Story

WE WERE LIVING HAND TO MOUTH

When I became pregnant with my second child, life was already difficult. Around the same time, my husband lost his job, leaving our family struggling to make ends meet.

With no other source of income, we both turned to vending to survive. My husband sold bread, while I sold vegetables.

When I was four months pregnant, we managed to raise enough money to pay the registration fees for antenatal care. We then made a plan to buy the baby’s essentials gradually, one item at a time, over the remaining months of my pregnancy.

It sounded like a simple plan, but living from hand to mouth made it much harder than we had imagined.

During my sixth month of pregnancy, we could not afford to buy anything.

In the seventh month, we managed to buy a baby bathing dish and a bucket.

By the eighth month, we had saved enough to buy a tracksuit, a hat and socks.

Then the ninth month came. Instead of preparing for the baby’s arrival, we were focused on finding money for transport to the clinic.

When my baby was born, we had only one set of clothes.

Thankfully, women from our church came to our aid. They raised money to help us buy baby essentials and gave me pre-loved baby clothes so that my baby would have something to wear.

Their kindness meant so much to me during a very difficult time.

My story is a reminder that for many mothers, preparing for a baby is not simply about knowing what is needed. It is about whether they have the financial means to provide those necessities.

Through Mother’s Comfort, I received the support and compassion that reminded me that I did not have to face this journey alone.

Today, my story is being shared so that other mothers facing similar challenges can know that there is hope, support and someone willing to walk alongside them.

A SAFE DELIVERY BUT NO WAY HOME

I was a mother of one, and my husband was unemployed. Life was difficult for us. There were times when putting food on the table was a challenge, and we often had to focus simply on getting through each day.

It was during this difficult period that I became pregnant with my second child.

I only discovered that I was pregnant when I fell ill and went to the hospital. To my surprise, I was already seven months pregnant.

I was overwhelmed with worry.

I knew I had missed most of my antenatal care, and with only two months remaining before my due date, I desperately wanted to register as soon as possible so that I could receive whatever care was still available to me.

But there was another problem: I did not have the money to pay the registration fees.

I hoped that somehow I would be able to raise the money that month. But that hope remained just a dream. As the weeks passed, my due date arrived before I could afford to register.

When labour began, I went to the nearest health facility. Despite being unregistered, I was attended to and, thankfully, I had a safe delivery.

But my challenges did not end when my baby was born.

The health facility could not discharge me because I had not settled my hospital bill.

I remained there for an additional two days after I was medically ready to go home, simply because we did not have the money to pay the bill.

Those two days were incredibly emotional for me. Instead of being able to focus on my newborn baby and enjoy becoming a mother again, I was consumed by worry.

I kept wondering: When will we find the money? When will I be able to take my baby home?

That experience changed the way I looked at motherhood and the challenges faced by women living in poverty.

I realised that for a mother who is already struggling to put food on the table, the cost of accessing maternal healthcare can become an overwhelming barrier. Sometimes, it is not that a woman does not want antenatal care. She simply cannot afford it.

Today, I volunteer with Mother’s Comfort because I understand that reality personally. I want other mothers to have the support, information and assistance that I wished I had during one of the most vulnerable moments of my life.

🌸 A MOTHER’S STORY: Every Woman Has a Story

WHEN MY SIXTH PREGNANCY WAS DIFFERENT

I am a member of an Apostolic faith community where we traditionally do not use contraceptives or give birth at health facilities. I had already given birth to five children within my community, and I expected my sixth pregnancy to be much the same.

But this pregnancy was different.

During my pregnancy, I developed placenta previa, a serious condition that required medical attention. The older women in my church community who traditionally assisted women during childbirth did not know how to manage my condition.

I realised that I had to make a difficult choice.

A friend who had previously received assistance from Mother’s Comfort told me about the organisation. She encouraged me to seek their help, and I reached out to them.

Mother’s Comfort supported me in going to the clinic, where I was able to receive the medical attention I needed.

Although seeking care at a health facility went against the practices I had always followed, I decided to go because I knew that my life and my baby’s life could be at risk.

At the clinic, I was assessed and advised on how to care for myself. I was told to avoid strenuous activities, sexual in*******se and prolonged periods of standing in order to reduce the risk of complications.

At 36 weeks, I underwent a caesarean section and gave birth to my beautiful baby girl, Makanaka.

Today, I am grateful that I made the decision to seek medical care. I am also grateful that a friend told me about Mother’s Comfort and that they were there to help me take that important step.

My experience taught me that sometimes circumstances can change, and when they do, having someone to guide you towards the right care can make all the difference.

My daughter Makanaka is a reminder that seeking help when you need it can change the course of a life.
