The baby revelation appeared in the music video for the Legends song called “Wild”, and just over a month later The 34-year-old also revealed the sex of the baby. She did so when she talked about the complications of her pregnancy
– I wanted to update you on my placenta, she said, and told about the complications she had when she was pregnant with Luna and Miles.

Never stopped bleeding
In an Instagram story, shared on Sunday night, Teigen revealed that she is currently hospitalized. The admission is due to the fact that she is experiencing bleeding from the placenta.
– I am halfway through the pregnancy and I have been bleeding for almost a month. So we are talking about more than when you only have menstruation. And not like when you just bleed, because I know that’s perfectly normal. That was a good deal, she said, according to People.
Furthermore, Teigen compared the bleeding as if the water tap had just been left on, and that on Sunday it finally reached a point where she never stopped bleeding.
Teigen made no secret of the fact that it all feels very strange, as she feels perfectly fine in shape and is in good spirits.

– It is scary
However, Teigen did not hide that the situation she is in is difficult, as there is not much you can do.
In a new post on Instagram, Teigen explains that she is going through her second blood transfusion. However, she points out that it sounds more dramatic than it actually is.
“It’s intravenous, but instead of fluid, the blood of some human is out there. Me and the baby are fine, I just miss the little things like walking, cooking and playing with my children “, is among what she writes.
As mentioned, it was in August that the news that John Legend and Chrissy Teigen were expecting children reached the public. In an earlier interview with Today, reproduced by among others US Weekly, however, the “All of Me” singer went a long way to suggest that the wife’s pregnancy was not planned.
– It was a surprise. A little quarantine surprise can be said, he revealed, and continued:
– But we are very excited and grateful for all the congratulations we have received from people all over the world. Thank you.

Different this time
The star couple has never hidden that they would like to have more children together, but in 2019 Teigen revealed that she would like to wait a bit before they expand the family.
– The children here are exhausting, she said at the time.
The couple, who have previously been open about their problems with having children, have received both children through test tubes.
Test tubes mean that the egg is fertilized outside the woman’s body. After a few days, a fertilized egg (embryo) is returned to the uterus – but this is not the case this time for the 34-year-old.
“Part of me misses the security of my perfect embryos that are created in a small bowl. They felt motionless and safe. Now I feel a bit… eggshell-like », she wrote on Twitter, and continued:
“IVF was a fantastic opportunity for us. So hard, but we got two gorgeous monsters out of it. I promise you, I never, never, never, never thought I could ».
