After all my tears of joy dis is all u gat to say...Thanks to God u r healthy. Still love u. But it can be a choice tho let's forget Africa mentality, it's never a law to just get pregnant immediately after marriage too.

Oga some people intentionally delay child birth. Not everyone is in a haste to start shitting out babies

I for one will wait a couple of years before getting my wife pregnant, I want a marriage where I will still be seeing my wife as that single hot lady I dated

I don't understand Nigerians mehn. See them tearing her apart already and concluding she was having issues with pregnancy. To them once you get married, you must start procreating the following month.

Heavily pregnant Nollywood Actress, Stephanie (Okereke) Linus revealed in a recent interview with Genevieve Magazine which she covered, why she waited 3 years after marriage before getting pregnant. In her own words, she said:

“Waiting this long to have a baby is a personal choice, and God ultimately decides. You have to be ready mentally and physically. I had a film I was shooting and I was travelling a lot to, My movie is out now, and I cannot even promote it across Africa like I wanted to, because am stuck in one place.”

It’s also Gods timing, neither my husband nor I were pressurized. I feel this is the right time for it to happen. Right after we got married, I was on set shooting. but this year is different. It’s the perfect year for me to get pregnant.”

God simply blessed her at the time she wanted it and she acknowledged it.

Well...

1.She did say it was due to the demands of her job. Many ladies delay having kids because of that reason. Also....some professions too ask you to delay pregnancy.(Heard of a lady who wanted to take an air attendant job....and was told that she should not get pregnant for one year. Said lady had just gotten married).

2.Also....sometimes it does not happen immediately.


I know some ladies delay getting pregnant, due to one reason or the other, ranging from demand of job, doctor advices e.t.c

She cannot do fairytale wedding and her husband will wait for 3years because of her job. 3 good years? I find it hard to believe!

I believe she had delay. You don't expect her to say that in public, do you? She has to be diplomatic about it.

Your two points contradict each other.
More importantly, she is not important enough for us to be bothered. If she born no be for she and her husband? Abi the pickin na public property?
These naija stars overrated there importance.

Stephanie you do well to give little exaplanation. If i were you, i wouldn't give any reason at all because my family decisions are my business and no one else's. The interviewer should go to the poverty stricken areas and ask those dumb poor people why they give birth to dozens of children when they know they are are not financially responsible to take good care of them. Somebody decided to lay a solid financial foundation for herself before thinking of bringing a kid into the world and they are asking her stuuuupid questions. shior!

I've always hated that having a baby 9months after marriage thing.

How do those married folks cope when the first 9months of marriage You struggling with morning sickness, fat-ness, and everything that comes with pregnancy instead enjoying your marriage and been just the 2 of you.


Like, chill guys. We are already married, let's have the baby when we are 100% ready to.

It comes with its own advantages. You can't tell a 40yr old man or a woman close to menopause to wait for years before having kids. Parenting and providing for family's need is done best when the bones are still strong

In fact i don't understand the woman. Why not just thank God for his gift and allow people rejoice and be happy with you.

Her story is definitely a lie. Only a novice will believe thus to be the truth.

First if all, she did a fairy tale wedding, and you telling me the husband will now agree to wait for three years before having a child for the the reason of Business. American celebrities busier than her have had babies.

Then, if to she got married in her early twenties and husband was equally very young, family planning would still be a believable story.

Stephanie must must be closer to 40 than 35; at the very best in between, like 37. And the husband must probably at least 40 now.

And you now say you decide to wait for 3 years. And how would you know it would come immediately after that three once you stop.

I beg, she doesn't need all this unnecessary whatever. She should just thank God that she's pregnant.
