Olivia Culpo shares serious pregnancy complications experience

Olivia Culpo recently shared her difficult experience with pregnancy complications. The former Miss Universe announced that she is expecting her first child with husband Christian McCaffrey. In a TikTok video, she discussed the health challenges she faced early in her pregnancy. Culpo revealed that she had pneumonia for two weeks before she learned she was pregnant. After recovering, doctors diagnosed her with a subchorionic hematoma, which is a blood clot in the uterus. She described being bedridden for nearly a month and experiencing heavy bleeding. Despite her struggles, hearing her baby's heartbeat during a doctor's appointment brought her a great sense of relief. The doctor advised her to stay in bed and avoid traveling. Culpo expressed gratitude for her improving health and hopes her story helps other expectant mothers who may feel alone during tough times. She emphasized that not all complications should lead to panic and encouraged moms to support each other. The 32-year-old has previously spoken about her health issues, including surgery for endometriosis in 2020. She aims to show the realities of pregnancy, not just the highlights, to help others feel less isolated.
