November 28, 2019, was a special day for Kambua, as she welcomed her baby boy into the world. After struggling to conceive, she finally received the blessing she had been longing for.

However, Kambua chose to keep her pregnancy under wraps for a while, only sharing the news with the world later. This decision was understandable, given the emotional trauma she had experienced during her pregnancy.

As she navigated the challenges of motherhood, Kambua took to social media to share a list of things she misses about her pre-pregnancy life. Her list included being able to eat food without being judged, being offered a seat wherever she went, and having her husband rub her feet.

However, Kambua also shared a list of things she doesn't miss about her pregnancy, including the constant hunger, sleepiness, and anxiety that came with it. She openly expressed her desire to help other first-time mothers who may be going through similar experiences.

By sharing her story, Kambua hopes to provide support and solidarity to those who may be struggling with the challenges of motherhood. Her message is clear: motherhood is hard, but it's worth it.
