Actress, Wumi Toriola Narrates How She Battled Infertility Before ‘Miraculous Conception’
Popular Yoruba actress, Wumi Toriola has shared an inspirational story of how she battled with infertility before the ‘miraculous conception’ of her son.
In a lengthy post shared on her Instagram page, the actress and mother of one revealed that after her marriage, she and her husband decided to rest for some period before having a child.
However, the period of their rest was over, and she could not conceive for six months which left her worried, and she went to a fertility hospital alongside her husband to ascertain the cause of their problem.
According to the talented actress, the specialist confirmed that she and her husband were medically okay, but because she was eager to have a child, she opted for IUI (Intrauterine insemination), which was unsuccessful.
She added that she had considered going for IVF (Invitro fertilization) after the two unsuccessful IUI, but God miraculously answered them.
Toriola shared this story as she celebrated her son, Zion, who turned two years recently.
Below is her full story…
“I think its about time to tell my little story and this is to encourage someone. I wanted to rest after marriage before conception and boom “my supposed rest” finished, no conception.
I didn’t see it as a problem until someone said “na so e easy, shebi she don dey married, she never get belle” As the playful person I am, it didn’t hit until 6 months passed.
Then it started to dawn on me. Voooooom I flew to fertility hospital but the annoying thing is “you need to go with your partner.
Choi, that was a tough one because it sure sends signals like “abi she don commot her womb before???

Long story cut short, I was told there was no issue that it would come but eager me wont hear, I had IUI 2 times, the last one, I started having funny symptoms of pregnancy,even without test I thought I was pregnant and was unnecessarily careful.
One month passed, I did test, alas no conception…. I was mad with my self, 30 days of injection and “hardwork” again. My doctor would laugh me and would assure me there was no issue with us… Hmmmmmm, I lost hope in IUI and i was ready for IVF, then miraculously conception came…
I wish I could explain the anger, the sadness through those little time of waiting but just one day, I forgot all…”
The actress went on to encourage women who may be battling with infertility, as she announced that her son – “my miracle” – has clocked two years.
“This is to encourage someone that “you are not in this alone” Others have been through worse and they came out strong.
In the process of waiting “don’t be mean” Your miracle is closer than you think and in all I held unto this word of God which says “There shall be none called Barren in thy land” My miracle turns 2 tomorrow October 13…Son , you will fulfill destiny. Any one that curses you shall be cursed.
Anyone who blesses you shall be blessed. Your name will speak better things than the blood of Abel Zion, you are known for signs and wonders. Your name shall continually be found in the things that please God. You will love God
I love you and i promise to protect you. And one last thing,God please give me long life to be there for this one and his siblings, Help me LORD.. To everyone looking for a miracle, the set time is now and it shall not tarry and please don’t take medicals lightly.
Love from Your mum…13/10/.”
