We Welcomed Our Son After Doctors Said My Wife Couldn’t Conceive – Actor Deyemi Okanlawon

Nollywood Actor, Deyemi Okanlawon has taken to social media to recount how he welcomed a son three years ago after doctors said his wife couldn’t conceive.

The actor who is celebrating his son, Demide’s 4th birthday, took to his Instagram page to share the infertility journey of his marriage with wife Damilola.

Okanlawon disclosed that they tried to have children for three years to no avail, until they left the issue to God after doctors told them that his wife would not be able to conceive.

“After 3 yrs of trying and then finally being told we couldn’t conceive your mum came home crying. I held her close and let her cry then when she was done I tilted up her face, looked her straight in the eyes and told her “That’s not what God told me! We will have our own children!”.

“On this day, 10th July, 4 years ago I woke up to the cry of a child my heart swelled with love and pride… and I understood for the first time the hearts of both my heavenly and earthly fathers towards me! Happy 4th Birthday Demide… I’m super proud to call you son. Luv, DeyemiTheDaddy p.s. @damilolaokanlawon see how I fulfilled my promise of giving you beautiful sons,” he wrote.

KanyiDaily recalls that actor, Browny Igboegwu and his wife Becky recently welcomed a baby girl after 10 years of childlessness in their marriage.
