Pregnant Chrissy Teigen Says She Had 'Scary Morning' in Hospital with 'Huge' Blood Clot

Chrissy Teigen feels relieved after enduring a particularly "scary morning" in the hospital.

On Tuesday, the chef and model, 34, who's currently expecting her third child (a boy) with husband John Legend, offered an update on Twitter after being hospitalized on Sunday night due to excessive bleeding from her placenta.

″Just had a really scary morning,″ she wrote, ″huge clot, almost save-worthy. The scramble to hear the heartbeat seemed like hours. I never thought I'd relief sigh so much in my liiiiife.″

The health development came after Teigen revealed to fans that she was ″about to have my second blood transfusion which truly truly truly sounds more dramatic than it is.″

″It's an IV, but instead of fluids, the blood of some kind human being out there,″ she wrote on Instagram Monday night alongside a throwback image from New Year's Eve. ″Baby and I are completely fine, just missing the little things like walking…cooking…playing with the other buttbutts."
