Photo: Mother Of 7 Delivers Triplets At Home, Defies Doctor’s Order
March 12, 2016 – Picture: Mother Of 7 Gives Birth To Triplets At Home Naturally, Defies Doctor’s Order In Rivers State
A former hair dresser now a full time housewife, Blessing Etoor defied doctor’s order on Monday after she delivered her triplets naturally.
The indigene of Eleme in Rivers State now a mother of 10 gave birth around 1am on Monday at their home without going through the knives.
She reportedly self-delivered her first child before her husband called a local nurse to help her deliver the rest.
Narrating how she was delivered of the remaining two babies, Mrs. Etoor, said
“I gave birth to the babies in the house. I was not feeling labour; I was just calling on my husband to give me water to take my bath. I sat back and lay down. Just as I was sleeping, water began to rush out.
“Then I asked my husband to run out and bring somebody to take me to the hospital. But then he should ask his younger brother to come and stay with me. Before the brother came, it was like something was coming out of me.
“I asked my children to help me stay on the ground. I was calling my first daughter, Faith, to help me. Just as I lay down with my back on the ground, I started feeling the baby trying to come out.
“I pushed and the first baby came out. So, I called on my husband to bring somebody in to help me. With the help, I was able to be delivered of the other two babies.”
Blessing Etoor and her husband, John, a small scale farmer however, called for financial support from government and public-spirited individuals.

Hebrew woman! That is what you are. How I wish that child delivery would always be like this! What most women pass through hell to bring, you just drop it so easily. Your husband should just thank God.
But on a serious note, you have taken the advantage that you deliver so easily to proliferate children without restraint. That is not a good choice considering how poor you people are. You are now calling for the govt to help. Does the govt help anybody. Have you not heard what they say: ask not what the country will do for you but what you will do for your country?
I guess it’s time for Nigeria to copy from China.

Prince Johnson Okpara to your notice that babies needs welfare from the government, he is not begging money rather he is asking what is rightfully belong to him and his family. A country that is blessed with human and economic resources should be able to cater for the citizen, that resources belong to all of us not only for the politicians. All citizen in Nigeria suppose to have government welfare because that land is our land.

What the hell! You see this nitwit, firstly, what is she doing with seven children? Mr.Raymond, you really don’t know how welfare works. For you to have a welfare program, everybody in that society must pay tax on everything as it is in western world. It is not pleasant to see the bastardization of the program,people become indelible appendages and suck out disproportionate amount of money from the budget. The more the children, the more the taxes. (From the working class) So, is this what you really want? Don’t dwell on the notion that Nigeria has oil, even if a barrel of oil sells for $500 it would not be enough to sustain the program for long. Family planning is imperative in this age, folks must learn to curb their desire or madness.

Congratulations to the family. The best solution is for the husband to work harder,coz help from govt might prove abortive or may rather not come

Yes @ Raymond, a bottle of chilled Eva wine 4 u dis wknd 4 dat brilliant feedback to that insultive and nasty comment from that Johnson of a guy who called himself a prince.
@ PJO… If you dont have anything for the couples, its not mandatory, nobody even beg you in the first place.
In like manner, your comment is nor compulsory too. You could have just zip up and allow people with passion to comment instead.
Just my observation, no harm intended.
Stay sweet.
I GAT TO…

You had 7 children and went ahead to make another, and now God gave you 3 to help you stop making babies and He also made it possible that you don’t spend a dime in the delivery of the babies. My question now is, why are you couple looking for financial help? Did we ask you to make babies you can’t feed? I sorry for this couple o

This stupid woman brought innocent children into abject poverty. What is wrong with her? Did she know more than the wise doctor? Before you know it, she will hit the road hawking the babies for money. Silly woman.

@Metu Nyetu, very funny comment, ‘you have taken the advantage that u deliver children like Hebrew women to proliferate children without restraint.
You are now calling for the government to help, does the government help anybody’.
Well I pray well meaning Nigerians come to their aid so that those older children won’t be part of any social vice in this country

@Amazon, you know what I said is the truth. And this kind of family is why we have touts and agberos in every park in Nigeria today, harrassing people and handling dangerous weopons.
There are many ways to fight crime. The worst of them all is equiping the police with guns and gadgets. The best is family planning. A family that trains their children reduces their tendency to become threats to the society. Now when the government provides basic amenities, this criminal drive is further reduced. In the end, the police would have less people to fight.
Equiping the police without doing the other two is just increasing death rate.

Our people no dey learn. If you give your children rubbish upbringing they will detest you in the end. If you think the more children I have the better for you because they will take care of you? then you are kidding yourself people. CUT YOUR COAT ACCORDING TO YOUR SIZE MY PEOPLE.
