Olivia's marriage had been a long and difficult one, marked by the couple's inability to conceive a child despite their best efforts. The doctor's diagnosis had been devastating, and the couple's relationship began to fray as a result.
As the months went by, Olivia's husband grew increasingly hostile and cold towards her, and his family's behavior towards her only made things worse. The couple's plans to build a new home together were abandoned, and Olivia was left feeling isolated and alone.
'My husband stopped providing for my basic needs, so I was forced to ask one of my friends for a dishwashing job at her hotel just so at the end of the day, I could get money to maintain myself,' Olivia said.
But things took a turn for the worse when Olivia's husband came home one day, furious and insulting. He referred to her as a 'cursed womb,' and Olivia couldn't bear the thought of competing for love and attention from another woman. She decided to seek help from a traditional herbalist, Doctor Mugwenu.
Doctor Mugwenu gave Olivia a special drink to take before engaging in sex with her husband, and also a drug to help lure him into sleeping with her. That night, the couple slept together, and Olivia discovered she was pregnant just a month later.
'I immediately shared the news with my husband and all the hate just disappeared, he infact jumped up and down with joy. He then called his mother and shared the good news with them,' Olivia said.
Olivia's pregnancy marked the end of all the disrespect and insults, and the couple's relationship was finally back on track.
