Scheana Shay has been discharged from hospital following the recent arrival of her daughter Summer.
‘Vanderpump Rules’: Scheana Shay Returns Home From Hospital Following Her Pregnancy
The star was very vocal about her joy, in finally being able to have a child, but the pregnancy was more complicated than first thought. That is why she was delighted to be home. In a post to her fans on Instagram, she confirmed how she was feeling a lot better. She said: “Guess who gets to go home today?
“We do. Getting discharged this afternoon. Feeling so much better…Got a lot of things to look out for and some recovery, but [I’m] feeling good and get to go home.” But at one point, things could have turned out a lot worse. Doctors had discovered that Scheana was suffering from preeclampsia. This condition can be very critical, given that it causes the blood pressure levels to rise to extreme levels.
The knock-on consequences could be liver and kidney damage. Naturally, these things could have impacted on the birth and ultimately Scheana’s health. This was a realistic prospect for the following reasons. First, Scheana has a history of pregnancies going wrong, as she has suffered from miscarriages in the past. Not only that, the prospect of giving birth during the pandemic is only going to add extra stress.
Luckily, though, doctors intervened just in time. In a previous post to her fans on Instagram, Scheana said: “My blood pressure was extremely elevated. I was diagnosed with preeclampsia, which has now turned into HELLP syndrome…My doctor said I was lucky, and we caught this just in time to treat [it].” Now that things seem to be on the mend, she is focused on cherishing those precious moments with her daughter.
And by all accounts, she has already started doing that, as evidenced by her social media activity. In a post to her fans on social media, she recently shared a video of her feeding Summer. And given the smile on her face, she could not be any happier. It is nice to see Scheana having a happy ending, after all the hardships that she has been through, and long may that continue.
