A woman who was pregnant with triplets has got a load of attention online after sharing the progress of her shockingly large baby bump.
Michella Meier-Morsi, from Copenhagen, Denmark, documented her journey on Instagram by sharing images of her bump, which began growing ‘straight out’ rather than ‘up and down’. The baby bump also turned purple and was covered in bruises in the weeks before the birth of her three babies.
Michella welcomed her triplets Charles, Theodore and Gabriel on January 15 via cesarean section. She was just over 35 weeks pregnant. Michella is also mum to two daughters with her husband, Mark.
Three days before she gave birth, Michella shared her fears with her followers, saying that she did not ‘feel ready’ for the triplets. ‘I seriously do not feel ready for three babies,’ she wrote.
‘I naively thought that I would get ready at some point – that I would feel a joy that the pregnancy is coming to an end and that we should finally meet our trio.
‘But if it were not for the extreme pain, the triplets would have to stay in the stomach for a month or three more. It all just feels so overwhelming.’
Michella said she wanted to ‘curl up in a corner and sob over how unimaginable it all seemed.’ The night before the birth, Michella said she was ‘insanely scared.’
