Baha said his daughter Astra Nyambura Kamau was underweight at birth and as such doctors had to put her in an incubator.
Georgina Njenga spoke on motherhood challenges during an interactive Questions and Answers (Q&A) with her fans on Instagram.
She revealed that she suffered postpartum depression after she gave birth to her daughter prematurely.
Postpartum depression is a type of depression that happens after giving birth. It causes extreme sadness and despair.
Symptoms might include insomnia, loss of appetite, intense irritability and difficulty bonding with the baby. Untreated, the condition may last months or longer. [sic]
Baha’s wife also disclosed that she lost 11 kilos shortly after she gave birth.
