Popular Kenyan singer Julliet Miriam Ayub, famously known as Jovial, has opened up about the difficult first trimester of her second pregnancy. In a heartfelt Instagram post, the celebrated artist revealed the emotional and physical challenges she has been facing, surprising many fans who usually see her glamorous side.
Jovial shared how nausea, extreme fatigue, and heightened sensitivity to smells made daily life unbearable. She even went a whole week without showering, relying on body spray to stay fresh. Brushing her teeth became difficult due to gag reflexes triggered by toothpaste, so she resorted to using salt and charcoal powder as alternatives.
She admitted this pregnancy has been tougher than her first and encouraged other expectant mothers to be patient with themselves, reminding them that every pregnancy is unique. Now entering her second trimester, Jovial says she is slowly adjusting and regaining control of her daily routine.
