Pregnant Mom Of All Boys Wanted A Girl, Then She Got A Huge Surprise At Her Check-Up
The past few weeks at the San Diego hospital had all been in preparation for this moment. And when expectant mom Angie finally delivered a healthy baby girl, there were likely to have been overwhelming feelings of relief and joy in the room. But Angie didn’t have time to rest and spend precious moments with her new daughter. You see, there was more in store, as the medical team attending knew all too well.
Third one on the way
Before the birth, Angie and her partner Gino had been the doting parents of two little boys. Then, however, the couple discovered that their brood was about to grow once again. Yes, Angie was pregnant – but little did she and Gino know that nature had a surprise in store for them.
Going to need a specialist
In the first few weeks, the pregnancy progressed just as doctors might have expected – but that all changed when Angie attended a routine check-up. At that appointment, her doctor Sean Daneshmand told the mom-to-be that she needed some specialist care. In order for her to be monitored, then, she would need to be admitted to hospital.
Safe in the hospital
Angie’s journey was covered in a video by Sharp HealthCare that was posted to YouTube in 2012. And in the footage, Daneshmand explains why the mother of two had needed further attention, saying, “Unfortunately, at 26 and a half weeks [into the pregnancy], all of a sudden there was a fluid discrepancy... So, that was time to say, ‘Angie, we belong in the hospital now.’”
Triplets on the way!
Furthermore, Angie’s pregnancy was considered high-risk. Why? Well, she wasn’t expecting just one baby but three. Yes, she was due to give birth to triplets, and with that prospect there were added risk factors that threatened to jeopardize the safety of her unborn infants.
