BBNaija’s Frodd’s Wife Opens Up About How She Was Body-shamed By Her Sister While Pregnant, Postpartum Struggles
Chioma, the wife of Big Brother Naija former housemate, Frodd has opened up on how she was body shamed by her sister while pregnant.
In an emotional interview with reality star, Maria Chike on her Mums Next Door podcast, the first time mum revealed that her sister’s comments left her feeling self-conscious and vulnerable.
According to her, her sister told her she had a water body (meaning she has a body that can make her fat easily if she eats too much during pregnancy), hence, she should reduce her the amount of foods she takes daily.
Chioma confessed that those harsh words had a lasting impact, leading her to make a promise to herself that she vowed to keep.
The new mom further opened up on her postpartum struggles, revealing that after she gave birth, she wanted to be on her own, was always crying and found it difficult to bond with her baby.
She told Maria:
“I have been body shamed before and that’s was when I was pregnant. It was a personal stuff between me and my elder sister.
I think it is important we talk about it because I hated it. My sister told me that I had water body (someone who can get fat easily) so I should watch whatever I am eating. She said I would have a big bum and would blow very soon.
Because of those things she said I promised to show her Shege, that I would give birth and not be fat.
After I gave birth, I wanted to be on my own, I was always crying and found it difficult to bond with my baby.”
