“My motherhood journey has been so beautiful. God is amazing. I am still in disbelief that God came through for me. I took six months of maternity leave to just be with my baby. I pinch myself at times and think, ‘are you my baby? You were in my tummy’.”

The young woman notes that her faith kept her going throughout the pregnancy, with the support from her mother and gynaecologist impacting the positive experience she’s had:

“Starting from the first scan I went to, my faith kept me going. I prayed every moment that I had. I was scared and my mom was a warrior in my life because she was the one who told me God’s plans are never to harm us.

“Every time I went for a scan, I would ask my gynaecologist if everything was normal, and if my baby was well. My gynaecologist, being a spiritual person as well, made the whole journey easier for me because he assured me and told me God would be with me. He encouraged me to keep praying.”

Young DJ reflects on motherhood

Lemme explains that despite losing her little girl, she still considered herself a mom, with her first pregnancy teaching her so many lessons:

“Being a mom is unbelievable. With my previous pregnancy, I was looking forward to being a mom. I kept trying, and it got to a point of me thinking I would never have my own [child]. With the previous pregnancy and the complications, I had concerns about whether I would ever be a mom.
“My first-born baby taught me prayer. I still felt like a mom to a little angel looking over me. When I gave birth to Jedidiah, I felt God’s timing was perfect. He knew why things happened the way they did. It is so amazing to be a mom and have a mini-me.”
