Ghanaian actress and entrepreneur, Fella Makafui, has disclosed that she used to cough up blood during the first 3 months of her pregnancy journey.

This was when she was pregnant with her daughter, Island.

According to her, she went through challenging moments, including losing weight drastically because she lost her appetite for food.

“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 told Pulse Ghana during an interview.

Adding 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?"

She also revealed that she underwent a caesarean section when her doctors told her the baby was unable to turn well in her womb.

Describing the process, Fella said she was fully conscious and saw everything with her own eyes during the procedure.

She felt no pain, but she could detect that the doctors were forcing something out of her stomach.

“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.

Fella Makafui is an actress and a young lady who came into the limelight through a TV series titled " Yolo."

She got married to rapper Medikal in the year 2020 but the marriage could not survive in the 4th year.

Their separation came with one daughter called Island, who is currently in the care of Fella Makafui.
