Popular On Air Personality (AOP), Tolulope Oniru-Demuren popular as Toolz has revealed one of her best kept secrets.
She shared details about losing her child, something she had kept private.
The recently appointed Programs Director for Beat FM shared the tragic experience, revealing the disbelief and agony she endured as well as her journey to recovery.
According to the mother of one, she got pregnant a few months after her wedding and typically began looking forward to having a baby.
However, when she got pregnant and as it approached six months, she noticed the baby never changed its position.
According to her, the Nigerian hospital she used didn’t pick up the problem on time.
Travelling to the United Kingdom, a scan showed that her baby was too small and may not survive.
“I never once thought that the health of my child would be an issue,” Toolz said.
Despite scans after scans and efforts made, she was told she’ll have to push the baby out because it was no longer moving.
Toolz revealed that at the final scan, she had some sort of “spiritual awakening”.
“I heard a voice saying ‘this isn’t going to work out but you’re going to be okay’, ” she said.
Speaking further, she said: “That was horrible, the day that I did the scan and there was just like nothing. When we did the last scan, there was nothing, like, no movement, nothing.”
“Oh my gosh, it was horrible, it was absolutely horrible,” she added.
She said she was told that she’ll be given some medications and will come back after three days to push the baby out. The medications were given to her on Thursday and she was told to come back on Sunday. However, she went into labour on Saturday.
Toolz recalled preparing breakfast on that fateful Saturday when she felt pain and went to the bathroom.
“From there, the pain went from two to twelve. And I remember screaming… I was in so much pain and that’s when I realized that gosh, I’m in labour, ” she said.
“I was in labour for about six or seven hours.
“It was very very traumatic. I try not to think about it too much.
“I think one of the worst moments after that… of course this was in the UK, they had to do like an autopsy, I had to arrange a funeral. It was horrible.
“That whole time, I was just like, ‘Yeah, God, I’m done’. I’m like ‘come and take me, I’m gone’.”
The OAP has since recovered and is now blessed with a handsome son.
