My motherhood journey began when I conceived my baby boy back in 2013. Being a first time mom, I was very nervous and naïve of what one goes through, and my husband was in Turkana County working. I remember there were nights I cried myself to sleep wondering why I was walking the path of pregnancy alone in the house without my partner. He managed to get 5 days off work when I was 4 months down the journey and we spent only 2 days with him because he used the other 3 days for travelling to and fro. It really was a tough time for me but all the same; I thank God because my pregnancy was smooth and okay apart from the morning l sicknesses here and there.
