Sad! Grieving husband narrates how his wife died during childbirth

A grieving Nigerian man took to twitter this morning to share how he lost his wife and their unborn child during childbirth (the man is pictured above with his late wife). The tweets are so sad and could mess up your morning. Read them after the cut. May her soul rest in peace, Amen...

    4. May her soul rest in peace. Thank God for my life dis almost happened to me. At gwarimpa gen hospital d scan said my baby was 3.8kg which is big I told d doctors we shd go for cs based on my brother's advise since he is also a doc. But dey said no that I shd push, they induced me hmmmm it wasn't an easy labour. At d end my baby came out abd had to go to neonatal while I was bleeding but I thank God I made it after transfusion. Pls never advise any pregnant woman you knw to be "induced". Its too much stress on d baby and d mum bcos she will end up bleeding. I'm so sorry for this loss.

  40. E no easy. Many women go in there and dont come out. Labour can be described as going to heaven, hell and back. The pain can be likened to 1,000 of your bones broken at the same time. Thats why i feel sorry for these women that show off baby bump pictures. The right thing would be to stay away from glaring eyes till after delivery. Believe it or not, we are Africans and juju is real. It is on this day(Labour/delivery) that most women are attacked spiritually. I have been down the road 3times. If not for the end product, its a journey one would almost never want to embark on. Sorry about your loss sir, Its one of the many woes of being a woman. God bless women and mothers the world over.

  41. Oh wow...this is a very sad one. My wife left at 35weeks + . These Naija hospitals are not to be trusted at all, the best one are a 1000 time below the average hospitals in US.
    Considering what my wife went tru even in the US hospital...i cldnt help but imagine wat the story would have been now if she stayed back in Naija for the delivery. Everything na God sha.
    May God grant her eternal peace

  48. Dear God,we sometimes don't under some things and why they happen like the death of a loved one; a death of a wife; one's own body; one's own flesh .Though no words, no comfort no pleading could fill that void such incident leaves in our hearts but our comfort comes in the fact that you know everything, in that knowledge of your greatness pls be that that we need to go through this phase by your grace we pray.

  57. And thats where some men will be angry with there wives for not having a baby boy. And some women too will continue getting pregnant because they are looking for a particular sex. If there is any such person on this blog, know that you are playing chess with your life. If anything happens to you, you will be replaced asap by a step mum who will maltreat your children. So stay alive, love yourself and appreciate whatever gender God has given you. My one cent. Cos these men aint loyal.

  85. Such a sad tale. My heart bleeds when I hear that a woman died during childbirth. Pregnancy is such a beautiful thing that it should not end in tears. The science of pregnancy has been mastered to a point that there a very few reasons why a woman should ever die during pregnancy, and juju is not one of them.

    It is sad that Nigerian women still approach and go through pregnancy with so much trepidation and uncertainty where in other parts of the world, women plan every bit of their pregnancy and delivery.

    The problem is multifaceted, but at the center of it is a poor health system with health workers who are constrained to work under conditions that make delivery of the right care at the right time difficult.

    Until the government sees humans as its greatest asset and not oil, it is difficult to imagine any improvement in the nearest future. Healthcare is involved and needs government support and oversight on many fronts, including policy making and accountability.

    Sorry for your loss. May her soul RIP.

    Remi ,Its so sad, i will never see you again, you talked about us seeing soon on your trip.
    I pray your gentle soul find rest in the Lords bosom. I trust your hubby and family will do right by Dara,but truthfully its painful to think we don't have you amongst us here on earth.
    I will continue to cherish the memories we had.
    Remember when you took me to the new Yoghurt sto re in Wuse, or those days when baba picks us to work.I will always keep those moments close to my heart.
    Rest on Remi.

  113. Oluremi my friend, I got the shock of my life yesterday on facebook when I read that you had passed on. I thought about you some weeks ago and I thought of calling you but it just escaped my mind. I remember our last conversation, you asked if my Darasimi wasn't looking at another girl because your Darasimi will be waiting for him. The few weeks we spent together when you had Darasimi before going back to Nigeria will be forever cherished.my husband is still in shock. I can't imagine the pain your husband is going through and to think Darasimi is motherless just breaks my heart. Rest in peace Remi.

  117. No woman should die during child birth. It is abominable. Pregnancy is not a disease neither is it a terminal disease. Women die due to negligence of our doctors.
    Now Remi is gone. This is just damn too sad. My consolation goes to her broken husband and the entire family. Only God can console them for this is tooo sad. He didn't mention the name of the hospital and their location.
    We honestly need to start boycotting all negligent hospitals who kill our young mothers during childbirth. Maybe they will all sit up.

    How can a woman die just like that? Wasn't she being monitored and the baby too. The baby boy also died. My God this is too painful! Both the basket and water thrown away.
    Only God can console this man. I almost during childbirth of my 1st baby 9 years ago at Ayinke house Ikeja. Only God said it wasn't yet time. All due to the negligence of the delivery team.

    God help us oooo. Men must insist and shout the roof down if they have to when it comes to taking decisions during delivery. It's a life or death situation when things go awry.

    She was already weak. Baby was weak yet they induced her. Too sad oooo

  124. This has to change, we are loosing this generation of young women to child birth. We need to demand better and quality healthcare and there needs to be accountability when there is gross negligence such as this. I'm so heartbroken for you dear brother.
