Ghanaian gospel singer, Mama Esther, has revealed the emotional and spiritual struggles she endured in the early years of her marriage, particularly surrounding her journey to motherhood.
In a recent interview, she recounted the heartache of waiting 10 years to conceive after losing her first child.
“The struggle came after a dream I had, where I saw someone taking my womb,” Mama Esther said. “I had a dream after I lost one of my children. In the dream, I was in labour, and someone was asking me to push my baby out. After I had given birth, I saw the person running away with everything. I then asked her to give me my baby, and she laughed at me, saying that I had taken your womb away. And that I won’t give birth again. But I didn’t take it seriously because I had a baby. She noticed the dream was coming through later.”

Apart from the dream, Mama Esther faced public suspicion. Many Ghanaians speculated that she had tampered with her womb after giving birth, a claim she firmly denied.
“Some people accused me that after giving birth to two in a span of two years, I went to tamper with my womb. Some even said that I went to change my womb so I can give birth to a lot of children, and that didn’t go in my favour. All these rumours happened after I had lost one of my children. The hard part was that it took me 10 years to conceive. But it took the grace of God for me to have another child after constant prayers,” she disclosed.
