“At first I did not want to keep the baby but after talking to different parties and women who had been in the same situation I released it was not the child’s fault,” Wendy said.’

Adding that;

“That [trending on social media] affected me very much and in my fifth month I had a miscarriage. The doctors said it was due to stress and the environment I was in.
