Nollywood actress Mo Bimpe has recalled past bad experiences when friends refused to invite her to baby events because she was childless.
In a post on her social media profile, Bimpe revealed the information while discussing her experiences prior to becoming a mother and offering support to women who are now attempting to conceive.
The actress claimed that she later learned that some of the individuals who had excluded her were people she knew and cared about.
“There was a time when I wasn’t invited to baby showers, naming ceremonies, children’s birthdays, or anything related to kids,” she said.
Because she liked kids and preferred to rejoice with others rather than be pitied, Bimpe said the experience was unpleasant.
She also asked that women who are waiting to have children not have their experience made more difficult.

“Please don’t make it harder by excluding people. A woman without a child is not less deserving of love, friendship, inclusion, or celebration,” she said.
The actress encouraged women trying to conceive not to give up, using her own journey as an example.
“There was a time I had no child. Today, I am a mother of triplets,” Bimpe said.
She urged women still waiting for children to remain hopeful, saying her experience had shown her that a person’s circumstances can change.
“The same God who remembered me has not forgotten you,” she added.
In July, Mo Bimpe threatened to take legal action in response to a revelation that claims one of her triplets was the victim of paternity fraud.
According to X user @iam_Mardiyyah, actor Lateef Adedimeji, the spouse of Mo Bimpe, allegedly filed for divorce over the paternity of their new triplets after a general hospital turned down his blood donation for one of the infants.
The user wrote:
“Popular Nigerian actor Lateef Adedimeji has filed for divorce from his wife after the Ilorin General Hospital rejected his blood donation for one of the triplets. The doctor claimed their blood groups do not match, and this triggered a paternity confirmation, which led the 40-year-old actor to carry out a DNA test on the children. The result shows that Lateef is not the biological father of the kids.”
The actress responded to the post on her Instagram Story on Tuesday by labelling the allegation as false and threatening to take online bullies to court.
She posted the post again and cautioned people not to beg her:
“I don’t want to hear justice for whatever your stupid name is by the time I am ready for you! You silly trolls have constantly trolled me on these platforms for years & I’ve been quiet, but what I wouldn’t take is you bringing your stupidity to my children!!! Be warned! I won’t hesitate to take the right action if need be.
