Former Queen Mercy Atang has shared how she once feared childbirth before becoming a mother.
In a Mother’s Day message, the former Big Brother Naija housemate said she used to be scared of giving birth but now appreciates the experience.
She said motherhood has changed her outlook, making her more focused and determined to work towards a better future for her child.
Queen Mercy also said she is committed to doing her best as a parent despite the challenges that come with raising children.
“Motherhood has been such an incredible journey. Funny enough, years ago, I used to say I never wanted to give birth because I was so scared. Now, when I think about it, I just laugh at myself. Life really has a way of changing your mind.
“Today, all I want is to be the best mother I can be. Motherhood has made me more focused, more resilient, and more motivated to work hard and build a future my kids will be proud of. Even on the days when I’m tired and running on little sleep, the love makes it all worth it. Thank you, God, for this beautiful experience. I’m forever grateful.
“Happy Mother’s Day to all the beautiful mothers around the world. Take your flowers mommies, you deserve them and so much more.
“May God continue to bless us with wisdom, strength, patience (because we definitely need it), and the grace to keep being the amazing mothers our children need”, she wrote.
