King Kaka's long-time sweetheart Nana Owiti has revealed that she unknowingly walked with a dead foetus for weeks after suffering a miscarriage in 2014.

In a step by step account on Instagram, Owiti disclosed that she “died a little” that April 1st during a routine hospital check-up when the sonographer said that the baby had no heartbeat.

“Hakuna nini?” Asked Owiti thinking the sonographer was playing an April’s fool’s day prank. “Hakuna heartbeat,” responded the sonographer.

An answer she says made her heart sink and got King Kaka confused.

“There was no taking back their words. I died a little. King was confused and I some more. I walked out first and sat by the hallway of the hospital. Then King followed then we went back to the Sonographer and he asks.’Hakuna kitu mnaeza do yani?’ (Trust the Eastlando in this guy). Then he responds, the best we can do is aoshwe as soon as possible because by her LMP she should be 12 weeks,” Owiti posted.

Here is the full story in he own words….

“Miscarriage can be such a devastating journey to walk through as a mother. There are many symptoms and causes of Miscarriage and infant loss which we shall discuss. I will share mostly what I’ve been through or what I’ve seen first-hand. Have I been through a Miscarriage? Oh yes! I have. Mnapenda story sana so here goes.

“It’s Feb 2014. Beautiful morning. I take a test and oh! It’s positive. King said he wanted mtoi amuite ‘Daddy Gugugugu.’ Now if you have been an ardent fan of King Kaka in his Rabbit days you will know that is an excerpt from his song Twende. He meant every word.

“He wanted a baby-I grew into that idea. So yeah! We didn’t talk about baby names by the way. King has started calling me Mama Gweth long before we planned on having a baby. Said it’s a unisex name.

“I tell him no need of starting clinic mapema so we good. First forward to the 1st of April 2014.I go the washroom and get a blood stain. Kwani google ni ya kazi gani. Very fast I google and somewhere hapo napata ooh! Sijui implantation bleeding. Aaai! The math didn’t make up for implantation building but I choose to just hold onto that as I freshen up and we head to the hosi.

“I tell the doc my LMP (Last Menstrual Period) and of course! The stain. He asks us to do a Scan.. the Sonographer calls another Sonographer and I hear. ‘Hakuna!’ Did I mention before that nimekunywishwa Maji mbaya sana coz the pregnancy is kidogo waezi ona If the bladder is not full...Anyway I ask ‘Hakuna nini?’ the first Sonographer says ‘Hakuna heartbeat’... Yaani Hakuna siku ilifeel April fools Kama hii siku (notice the day).

“I gave King a quick glance and quickly gave those two Sonographer another one expecting a ‘We just fooled you!’ My God! There was no taking back their words. I died a little. King was confused and I some more. I walked out first and sat by the hallway of the hospital.

“Then King followed then we went back to the Sonographer and he asks.’Hakuna kitu mnaeza do yani?’ (Trust the Eastlando in this guy) Then he responds, ’the best we can do is aoshwe as soon as possible because by her LMP she should be 12weeks but by the foetal blah blah (those medical jargons) Iko 7weeks meaning she’s been walking around with a dead baby for weeks!!!!!’
God! I died some more...

“We were taken to the ER and before medical evacuation was performed I gathered enough courage and asked why? What happened? What did I do wrong? The doc was kind enough to explain. ‘Could be many things, stress, and hormonal imbalance.’

“Honestly my brain went into a trance and well, I don’t remember much of anything he was saying. King Hugged me and well, we mourned our little angel that we didn’t get to meet. When I woke up, King was by my bedside, my heart dented, soul fractured, eyes swollen and my womb childless.

“Did I have my fears? YES! Did I worry I might never conceive or Never be able to carry a baby to term? OF COURSE!

“Did I worry My Relationship with King would suffer a massive blow? Oh! My God!! ABSOLUTELY! Did I worry I would never get through that!! Wah! Si ndio!!!

“Anyway,

“Home we went with hopes of a child (ren) someday. God naye ni nani? In 3 months’ time alifanya Kaa yeye and I was pregnant with our girl Gweth who is going to be 5 in a months’ time. Another 3years after that I got my son @princeiroma. If you are going through this turmoil, I promise time is a healer and it shall be well.

“Your blessing is coming. Cry if you have to, sleep if you feel like, and talk to a counsellor. Chin up and Pray and hope for the best. When the doc waves that Green flag, do not be scared to take off. Try again. I love you all. Love and Light,” she posted on Instagram.
