Snezana Wood has shared devastating details about the health of her newborn baby Harper, who she shares with former Bachelor Sam Wood.
On May 8, Sam announced the safe arrival of their daughter via Instagram. However, the fitness trainer revealed that both his wife and Harper had “picked up” an infection and were reunited after several days in intensive care.
Now, Snezana has revealed that Harper is still in the hospital. Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, she wrote: “Our little Harper still isn’t home with us. It breaks my heart 1000 times a day.”
“But then I remember she’s in the best place with incredible Drs & nurses caring for her around the clock. She’s doing so well now [sic].”
The 41-year-old added that her three other daughters – Eve, 16 (Snez’s daughter from a previous relationship), Willow, four, and Charlie, two – have not met their new sister yet.
“I know she’ll be home soon enough, and her three big sisters will finally be able to meet her,” she said, adding, ” but till then it’s back and forth to the hospital a number of times a day whilst trying to keep it together.”
What Happened When Harper Was Born?
While Harper’s May 4 arrival was a joyous occasion, Sam confessed that his daughter’s birth had not exactly been smooth sailing.
“So here’s a story from the last [five] days,” Sam penned alongside a carousel of photos of Snezana and baby Harper. “On Wednesday, May 4th, one month early, we welcomed Harper Jones Wood to the world.”
Sam explained: “30 minutes after this photo was taken. Snez became sick. Really sick and before we knew it Harper was off to the special care unit and Mum was into ICU.
“Of course, in true Snez Mum fashion, her only thoughts were for her little baby, and it was breaking her heart that she couldn’t hold her.”
Sam concluded the announcement with nothing but praise for his “strong” and “beautiful” wife.
