I am an 18-year-old girl from Port Harcourt, Rivers State, and I’ve been in a complicated situation. I’ve been involved with multiple boys without much caution and now find myself pregnant, unsure of who the father is.
When I discovered my pregnancy, I decided to inform one of my boyfriends that he was the father. To my shock, he denied even knowing me. The other two boyfriends have disappeared, and their phone numbers have been unreachable for over a month. I don’t know their home addresses, making it impossible to find them.
Currently, I am four months pregnant, and my parents are starting to suspect something due to my attempts to hide it with oversized shirts. I am increasingly worried about how long I can keep this secret as my pregnancy progresses. The stress of keeping it hidden is overwhelming.
I initially considered ending the pregnancy, but doctors advised against it, saying it was too risky. The thought of giving birth to a child out of wedlock deeply troubles me and brings potential shame to my family. Despite my desperate attempts to abort the pregnancy, I failed and now find myself in an even more difficult situation.
Uncertain about which of my boyfriends is the father, I have been regularly visiting the hospital for medical care due to complications from the attempted abortion. This only added to my stress and fear about the future.
Desperate for guidance, I sought spiritual antenatal care at Dr. Ibezim’s Spiritual Temple, phone +234, 912168, 6006. Dr. Ibezim, known for his reliable divination, informed me that the baby in my womb is a prophet and warned that my attempt to abort the pregnancy could have cost me my life. This revelation frightened me and added a new layer of worry to my situation.
However, Dr. Ibezim encouraged me not to dwell on my fears about how I will survive after giving birth. He assured me that money would not be a problem and that everything would work out. He also mentioned that the father of my child is among the three men I suspected, and he would likely come forward to claim responsibility after one month of successful delivery.
To help me through this challenging time, Dr. Ibezim provided me with spiritual fortification and urged me to ask for forgiveness every morning until my delivery. This spiritual support gave me some peace of mind, though my situation remained complicated.
After eight months and three weeks, I experienced labor pains and hurried to a nearby clinic, where I gave birth to a healthy baby boy. This moment was both a relief and the beginning of a new set of challenges.
Just three weeks after giving birth, the boyfriend who initially denied knowing me came to apologize and claimed responsibility for the pregnancy. This unexpected turn of events left me confused and uncertain about what to do next.
My parents were furious when they saw him and immediately asked him to leave. They do not want to see the man who impregnated me and are extremely disappointed with the entire situation. Now, I find myself in a state of confusion, unsure of how to move forward.
I am seeking advice from parents and anyone who can offer guidance. What should I tell my parents, who do not want to see the man who impregnated me? How can I navigate this difficult situation and make the best decision for myself and my child? Please advise me, as I am completely lost and in need of support.
