Toke Makinwa talks about pressure of getting pregnant after marriage
The TV/Radio personality took to twitter just now to talk about the pressure she's receiving from folks about her not being pregnant many months after marriage. See more tweets after the cut...
Actually, After marriage there is nothing that is easy for a married woman, marriage is a process, I pray she get pregnant soon, that's if she want to.
Lol. That's Nigeria for you. If you don't have kids within the first year of your marriage, tongues start to wag, your fertility is questioned and prying eyes follow your tummy whenever you step out. They simply forget that God is the giver of children. #smh
Madam can u pls take betty irabor's advice n keep ur marriage off dis platform (social media)! Gush. Kilode? There r somethings that r meant to be private abeg n isn't it in ur own best interest to have kids now? U nid to reduce ur appearances @ events n take a 2nd honey moon with ur hubby. #Theneedful
You've only just started...after the first child..there's still gonna be questions/monitoring concerning when you will ve the second and so on and so forth... just gotta deal with it without allowing it to bother you.
I can imagine and hear her very annoying voice while reading the tweets... I watched her vlog last 2weeks, oh №... I wasn't impressed one bit. Can't believe she's a Radio Personality.
Na wah for this pregnancy stuff sef! My personality every thing is just revolving around it! I tire. My sister take it easy, as fot me I received a new shock yesterday, my hus said he won't have sex for fun any more since am not conceiving! And I already have a son oo.
Toke,wot do u mean by mk ur uterus breath, u beta start telling us d many tins u hv done wit hence just kip quiet n settle dwn to start having kids. Evn pple wen done born 7 no dey say mk deir uterus breath let alone u!
It's a question that every woman faces. You get your share of this pressure here, Linda, about marrying and then rushing to have kids before it's too late. We're the only species who lives our lives having to explain ourselves to family and strangers.
my dear u are nt d only one ooo hmmm me too am in d same shoe with u. i had a miscarriage last month because dey did nt allow d womb rest wit dere eyes nw it is out dey wont still allow d uterus breathe with dere eyes. especially my husbands peeps. may d lord help us dat are married nd dnt hv any child. my marriage is just 5mnths oooo.

Toke i think its too early for you to be having this talk in the media as all eyes will now focus on you but on the other hand why wont they be expectant when you dated him for so long, pple already tagged you guys as married long before you made it official so just allow the uterus do the work it was made for biko.
Yes ooo,I feel your pains oo,even if you have a kid people keep nagging,your. Child is overdue for another one,no one bothering if you are financially allot or not,the society is crazy,let people live and breath happily and we should learn to respect ones another's plan and privacy
As a child, there is pressure to do well in school, once you graduate from University there is pressure to get a 'good' job when you get a good job there is pressure to meet the 'right' person...
Why do we live on these rules???
Marriage is a commitment, children will come when they come...
Na so my dear. one month after marriage ,dem go dey ask you ....God help you ,you are sick,Ah!!! you will be suprised at what prople will be asking..is it omolaria or malaria???? its well ..God will grant all our heart desire
Awww, i didnt particularly like Toke before now but after reading this, i have love for the gal. i mean, not many girls can speak openly of something as delicate as this...
Btw, it is sweet the way we Africans are concerned about one another's business but i think it is also important to draw the line somewhere, The uterus and what happens there should be one of those places!
MY DEAR THE PRESSURE IS REAL. I WAS UNDER ALOT OF PRESSURE JUST 3MONTHS AFTER MY WEDDING, THAT EVEN WHEN I FELL ILL 3 TIMES, I DINT TELL ANYONE, COS THE NEXT THING IS TO SUSPECT THAT IM PREGNANT. THE FASTEST WAY "NOT" TO GET PREGNANT IS TO WORRY ABOUT IT. 5 MONTHS INTO OUR WEDDING I WAS GETTING SO FRANTIC AND HYSTERICAL, NOT UNTIL MY HUBBY SAT ME DOWN ONE NIGHT AND TOLD ME TO CALM DOWN. HE SAID HAVING A CHILD NOW IS GONNA BE A MOJOR SETBACK TO ALL OUR FUTURE PLANS. HE ALSO PROMISED ME CHRISMAS VACATION TO DUBAI AND PARTS OF EUROPE. THAT WAS THE NIGHT I TOOK MY MIND OFF THE ISSUE AND THEN THAT WAS THE VERY NIGHT I BECAME PREGNANT. LADIES PLEASE, TAKE UR MINDS OFF THIS ISSUE AND IT WILL HAPPEN LIKE MAGIC
Toke don't mind the stupid idiots who won't kind their business ........I just am pregnant after 9 years of marriage and I know what my eyes saw.....we Africans are the worst culprits, idiotic morons.......even women that were lucky and God just blessed will be talking to you like it was because they were saints they got pregnant......toke God will bless you in his own time, just don't let them frustrate you....it is well
No be small thing oh,na so people dey monitor me in my few months of marriage. Very annoying and frustrating. If I sneeze or put me head down then go say e don enter.if I take leave from work Dats even worse,they will almost buy me pampers.lol!!!!
Lwkm@let d uterus breathe. ... Mehnn it's d truth o. Even frnds that don't ve a serius bf sef go dey disturb u about preggs. I thnk God my bundle of joy Hs com o. So dem go allow me breath. U go com feel lik Hu nor fertile if u nvr take in d night u marry. Lwtmb
Word.Words of a woman who knows her value,who knows she is a human and a person.and she can attain any height. Women and the Society put other women into unnecessary headache. eg How far? when are we drinking the wedding wine?,has he not proposed? after that, it becomes, has it enter? next, when are you giving baby a sibling?and it goes on and on and on. Dear society,we women are not objects and we actually aspire for more
Now dis news is rily getting mi so angry cos Toke I expected u 2 knw beta dan dis, living ur life on social media #AMSOPISSED# shut dat mouth of urs and face ur marital ish cos its none of our biz, geez
No,that's not what should come after marriage sir. I and my husband waited 2 years after marriage intentionally to enjoy life as a couple and plan well for our child. Our child came 2 years 5months after we were married and I'm glad we planned it as we did because we are ready, no surprises, we have enough to give him the best, good jobs, a good house and are settled. I have friends who conceived on the wedding night or 1st month after marriage, were virgins and they never had the opportunity to discover themselves sexually before children came. If you are a married man with a child /children, you would know that d sex life changes. I also have a relative who lost her ovaries to cancer and can't have kids but is married, should she kill herself? So my dear, children shouldn't be the next thing immediately after marriage, enjoy each other as a couple and plan ahead, you won't regret it. :)
Abiiiiiooooooo!!!!! I feel you my sister, wetin my eye and eye never see self. When you are yet to marry, all you hear is get married, please get married, do quick and marry... then, when you get married, they start that first month even before your honey moon, you are pregg, ypu are pregg, then, after that.. train your kids well. train your kids well!!! no be small thing ooo!
Nne plz don't mind them, if u try and still can't but I pray you should, just employ me to be your surrogate...you're husband is so cute but first I need to know if his "thing" is functional too...lol
Social media is now the new trendy esp for Nigerian celebs, SMH! ... I mean y'all need to get it together sometimes and deal with your shit without actually sharing virtually everything that's going on in your life on social media#Arrrrrgghhhhhh...On a lighter note, I agree with her....Her Uterus needs to breathe LOL
My dear we waited two years too. best 2 years of my life. People don't know how stressful marriage is, then add pregnancy hormones at the beginning and it's just crazy. calm down and fuck for fun first
Cynthia iyede, She wasn't discussing her marriage, she was talking about nosy peeps who ask questions that don't concern them.... Like you. Stop twisting things and go get a life yourself!! You're accusing someone of discussing matters that should be private to her, yet you're poking your long nose into their personal matter by saying "it's in her interest to have kids" and "she should take a 2nd honeymoon with her husband" really?!! #FOH!
Anon 8:34pm, very accurate observation. Cynthia, your audacity is quite nauseating. Mind your own business and stay out of other people's private matter!
Drs and anon7:37 a million likes for your comment! People think I'm crazy when I say i'd wait a whole 2years Abeg o let me enjoy my husband first jare Between, Toke's comment doesn't mean she can't conceive; Maybe she isn't ready to, or is not willing to. Na by force? People should stop trying to live life for others.
I thought toke said her parents had died in a fire, pls correct me if i'm wrong, cos I don't understand the one wey she say my mum shows up at mine, late at night

She is so freaking right. Preggo comes when one least expect it.It is well dear Toke
pay back tym remember when u were eating up ur babies then.loool...we waiting for u when so to say u ready
I'm with Toke on this one. People should just learn to mind their business and stop putting even more pressures on waiting mothers.
Toke i think its too early for you to be having this talk in the media as all eyes will now focus on you but on the other hand why wont they be expectant when you dated him for so long, pple already tagged you guys as married long before you made it official so just allow the uterus do the work it was made for biko.
Well this babe ain't cute at all.
Yes ooo,I feel your pains oo,even if you have a kid people keep nagging,your. Child is overdue for another one,no one bothering if you are financially allot or not,the society is crazy,let people live and breath happily and we should learn to respect ones another's plan and privacy

Marriage is a commitment, children will come when they come...
yes is like that but pple should get it into their head that is God that give children nt man power hahahahaha!
Let your uterus breathe after 2 kids, they have to confirm if you can get pregnant & give birth. Having Kids is every man dream...
BORN TO SHINE!!!

Has nothing to do with that. Are you a virgin?
She can call any one she wants mom... Ah...
Sometimes I would wonder why anyone in their consciousness wants to marry someone like Toke Makinwa.
Wait a minute Toke. Which mother? Thought you lost your parents in 1993 to fire accident. Abi no be wetin you tell us? Hmmm. He'll fire go full.
