Toyin Lawani Reveals She Recently Suffered A Miscarriage As She Details Her Health Woes: ‘At Times I Would Wake Up Paralysed’
Toyin Lawani has shared a sad part of her life many do not know about.
The celebrity stylist and mother-of-three who welcomed her third child – first with her husband, Segun Wealth, in August 2021, disclosed that she recently suffered a miscarriage.
She went further to reveal that she has been facing health challenges, including degenerating bones, and when it was time to begin treatment, she discovered she was pregnant.
According to the successful businesswoman, she and her husband decided to keep the baby news private for a while.
Unfortunately, they later lost the baby. She said the loss could have been avoided.
Sharing more details on how she lost her unborn child, she said shortly after welcoming her 3rd child, she discovered she was pregnant again but started bleeding.
The 40-year-old mum said she thought the bleeding was normal because she bled throughout her previous pregnancies but sadly, she lost this one and was told that she needed to undergo a surgical procedure for her spine which she did.
She went on to detail other health challenges she’s faced. The celebrity fashion designer said when she was pregnant with her third child, she found out she had a cyst in her brain.
She added that she’s also dealt with multiple fibroid surgeries, arthritis, back, neck and side pains, and has to wear neck braces for most of the day.

“Thank to everyone who reached out, God bless you all,
Loosing An unborn child can be the most difficult trauma to deal with , cause u would have Bonded & started making plans for the future.I have always said I wanted to have just 2kids. Then my doc advised me to take out my womb out due to the Complications I was having, I dealt with a lot, multiple fibroid surgeries, arthritis, back aches , neck pains, side pains, at times I would literally wake up paralyzed ,I wear a neck brace daily but when in public I take it off, too many questions ,
So went for the 3rd baby again, At least before I do the final surgery, from my last born’s pregnancy found out I had a cyst in my Brian cause d headaches were super& back pains tripled , I got doctors opinions in Nigeria they said we can’t treat you till you have this baby , best thing is take the baby out & we will get you the care u need.
At this time I was already attached I said no & went abroad, they managed d situation till I had d baby , Which was why they said I couldn’t have it naturally like my other kids, Got back on my feet in no time, months after my legs & bones gave way, d pain was too much went back again abroad they said my bones were degenerating due to the pressure.
At this point my legs were swollen, I couldn’t walk, this was few days to my 40th birthday party in Nigeria, I had so much plans for my 40th but I said nothing & opted for prayer for my late mom.
Few months forward I found out I was pregnant again, this wasn’t planned at all & i and hubby said tell no one, cause we weren’t sure, even when my friends said, you’re pregnant, I will just laugh abt it And say no it’s not there.
Unfortunately I got so stressed & depressed, started bleeding as usual cause I bleed having all my kids, from day one till due date, so felt it was normal, but it took a huge turn & I lost it, in the process I’m hearing I need a spine surgery I’m like how old am I
Anyways I have lost so many things in life, But I felt this to my bones, Cause it could have been avoided but I thank God for his mercy upon my life, I have never shared ds much because I hate showing weakness, But neva judge a Book by its cover
Back & Better .”
