"Was really scared"
Sofia Richie was in labor for six weeks
Sofia Richie, the youngest daughter of singer Lionel Richie, said she suffered from premature labor before the birth of her first child.
"I woke up at 32 weeks and thought: 'Hey, I woke up and I'm really tired today. My back really hurts. I feel a bit crampy'," the 26-year-old told the "She MD" podcast.
"I was really scared"
The doctor then determined that she was already in labor. "I was really scared."
She had to spend six nights in hospital and spent another six weeks in bed at home in labor, Richie said. The birth was finally induced at 38 weeks.
"Swollen like a balloon"
A few days later, she swelled up "like a balloon", recalls Nicole Richie's sister. As her gynecologist notes in the podcast, Richie was suffering from postpartum preeclampsia. In this rare condition, the mother's blood pressure rises dangerously after giving birth. As a result, she had to be hospitalized again for 24 hours.
The model, whose father Lionel Richie (75) became world-famous with songs such as "Hello" and "All Night Long", became a mother for the first time last May. She and British music entrepreneur Elliot Grainge got married in April 2023.
