My brother and his fiance had their baby early this morning by c-section. It's a girl, 7 pounds 10 ounces and 19 and a half inches long. Unfortunately, his fiance had a stroke this morning and is in icu. The baby is doing fine but they aren't sure if the mom will make it. This sucks so bad. My brother is extremely upset as yall can imagine. :( sorry guys, I just had to vent!

Oh wow, I am so sorry to hear that. My prayers are with your family right now.

If I may ask... Was your brother's fiance having complications during her pregnancy (hence the c-section)? Or was everything fine until after surgery?

The Dr. Told her she needed to have a c-section and she flat refused, cried, begged to wait, etc. (the baby kept turning her head and wouldn't come down) so, he put it off for 3 hours. She then got a fever because it had been so long since her water broke and they thought she might be getting an infection. That is when he told her he had to do a c-section right then. Well, a couple of hours later she just had a stroke out of the blue. Well, i'm about to go back up there to the hospital. I just wanted to come home for a shower and tell you guys what was going on. Thanks for listening. I'll update you later.

Thanks guys. It has been so rough lately. I just got in from the hospital and i'll be going back in a few hours. The Dr. Is now saying it wasn't a stroke but that it's dic. (that's a clotting problem with her blood) this morning they were saying she would die but she is doing so much better. We are praying she will pull through. Please continue to pray for her though. Thanks so much yall!

Ok, I just got back from the hospital. Everything is a mess and her family are saying this is all my brothers fault. Her aunt cussed him out and her sister went crazy on him. They are even trying to keep him from seeing his baby and his fiance. They are crazy! My brother is absolutely distraught and doesn't know what to do. Anyway, they can't get the bleeding to stop and don't know for sure where it is coming from. (she has been bleeding vaginally really badly which caused her blood pressure to go so low) they sent her to surgery and the doctors are telling us to basically prepare for a funeral. I don't know what my brother is going to do if she dies. He is gonna go crazy.

Oh .Jenny Sad

.My thoughts are with you guys <3


.How in the world could this be your brothers fault?
It's nobody's fault. People just look for someone to
blame to help ease the pain.


Anyway.
Whatever happens, we're here for you,
&are all thinking of you &your family!

I am so sorry it has came to this, we all know it is not your brother's fault!
Just be there for your brother the baby and her, even though you may not be able to see her, you know she would not like what is going on as he is the father of the baby. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your brother and especially his girlfriend(fiance) and the baby and your family and I hope their will be peace soon! We are here for you!
