‘We slept on the sitting room floor,’ Mercy Masika’s husband on dramatic pregnancy

David Muguro, husband to gospel artist Mercy Masika, has narrated how his wife’s pregnancy made them sleep on the floor of their new house.

According to the father of two, Mercy could not stand the smell of wood or blankets at their new house hence making them shift to the sitting room.

This was during her first pregnancy.

Speaking during an interview with Picha Clear Films, David shared,

‘She did not want to see anyone including her sister
They used to irritate her and nothing made her happy.

We went to the clinic and we were told to be taking walks, she would then come and demand that I take her for the walks.

But the minute we start walking something would happen she would say the winds are too much the people are too many among other things.

The only thing she wanted is eggs. The advice from people was too much on why she couldn’t eat eggs.

The confusion of never having been there and not knowing who to ask was too much.

We also had to sleep in the sitting room as she could not stand the smells from cupboards and wood.

David added that they had Somali neighbours and Mercy could not stand their perfumes thus they agreed that they can only do their laundry at night.

Luckily for them, the woman agreed and that helped a little.

Mercy says the first trimester was tough but she made it through.

I threw up a lot and it was not fun, I could not sleep in my bedroom as the blankets and the smell of wood from my cupboard would irritate me.

I also could not stand the smell of onions.

I slept on the sitting room floor and I had to use a particular bed sheet.

The couple has two kids, a son and a daughter.
