Erin had an undiagnosed Placenta Accreta, a rare but serious condition where the placenta attaches too deeply into the uterine wall. Normally, the placenta detaches after birth, but in Placenta Accreta it doesn’t. This can cause life-threatening bleeding during delivery and is often only diagnosed during pregnancy scans or sometimes only discovered in an emergency. If untreated, it can put both mother and baby at extreme risk.
At 33, Erin faced the unimaginable. Doctors warned her there was a chance she might need a hysterectomy. She ended up losing her uterus, her baby spent time in the NICU, and she lost a day of her life in a coma. What should have been a natural birth turned into a life-or-death ordeal.
Her story is one of trauma, survival, and the devastating reality of rare pregnancy complications.
