Ghanaian actress and entrepreneur, Fella Makafui, has opened up on the unforgettable moment where she was awake throughout the Caesarean session procedure.
Speaking in an interview with Pulse Ghana, Fella disclosed that she had to undergo a caesarean section when the doctors realised her daughter couldn’t turn well in the womb, making natural delivery risky.
Fella described how she gave birth to her daughter, stating that “I was actually awake throughout the process, I was seeing myself because of the CS. I had 2 doctors, one on my left and one on my right. I could just feel myself moving, like they are forcing something to come out, but I wasn’t feeling any pain. The doctors kept asking if I was okay.
“The funny part was, I turned myself to watch the other nurse on my left side, that’s when I saw this mirror and I saw my stomach, then I panicked because it was so scary and traumatising. I didn’t know that’s what was going on so it was scary and I think a few minute later, I heard the baby’s cry. I remember that I was just crying especially when they brought Island. My partner then was asked to be inside but I think he was scared so he was outside, and they just rushed the baby to him. It was a very good experience,” she said.
According to Fella, she went through hell during her pregnancy journey.
She said she used to even cough up blood.
“The first 3 months were hell for me, I was literally sick. I lost weight because I had zero appetite. I could cough and cough blood, it was that bad. Along the line, I had to do CS because Island couldn’t turn well. I didn’t want to do CS, I wanted to deliver a normal birth, but I had no choice,” she stated.
