Sisi Yemmie: Popular Food Blogger Welcome Twins (Photos)
Popular Nigerian food blogger Yemisi Sophie Odusanya, popularly known as Sisi Yemmie, has welcomed a set of twins.
In a YouTube video, she shared her unexpected journey of being pregnant with twins and revealed that she was not planning to have more children when she discovered her pregnancy.
Reflecting on her surprise, Sisi Yemmie said, “When I think about the fact that I’m now a mom of five, it’s so shocking to me. If you told Yemisi of two years ago that she was going to have more babies, I would have said you were a liar. If you told me I was going to give birth to twins, I would have said ‘You’re a liar,’ because I don’t know how that happened.”

She described her disbelief upon learning she was expecting twins, explaining how it affected her presence on social media.
“Sometimes when a thing like this happens to you, it can cause you to retreat and I think that was what happened to me. I just could not function like normal because I was in a different headspace,” she said.
Despite regular scans confirming the twin pregnancy, Sisi Yemmie shared that she did not fully grasp the reality until their birth.
“I didn’t think they were real until I saw them, even as I was doing scans and they were saying ‘They’re two inside.’ It was hard to comprehend,” she said.
Adjusting to her new life as a mother of five has been a significant transition for her family. “It’s been a journey trying to adjust the family. We are a family of seven now. That’s a lot. When I go out some people are so confused. They are like ‘Whose babies are these?’ A lot of my friends and even family members didn’t know that I was pregnant. That was how much keeping it to myself that I did,” she said.
