Thee Pluto reveals tough decision they made to save their daughter's life

07 November 2022

• Thee Pluto and his bae Felicity welcomed their daughter on Friday Morning.

• Their daughter had the umbilical cord around her neck.

YouTuber couple Thee Pluto and his bae Felicity welcomed their first child a few days ago. Unknown to many was that the new mum had to undergo an emergency CS after it was discovered the baby had the cord wrapped around her.

Speaking on their YouTube channel, Felicity narrated;

"The baby's umbilical cord was wound around his neck. It has been noted on the first scan but I had to take another scan to confirm the same."

Felicity says the doctors had hoped the baby would play around and the cord would undo itself but that did not happen.

The nuchal cord, or when a baby’s umbilical cord is wrapped around her neck, is one such condition that can conjure up exceptionally scary problems for a safe delivery.

Such cords become problematic when the cord is wrapped tightly around the baby, which can restrict blood flow and potentially cause acidosis and anemia.

Thee PLuto took to his socials to celebrate the birth of his daughter.

"4|11|2022 9:14am🙏," she announced on Sunday.

Pluto added that it was a dream come true for him to be a father.

"Nimetimiza ndoto zangu kwa kumpata mwanangu. Karibu duniani mtoto wangu @zoey_pluto Umenibadilishia jina nikawa mzazi na ukanipa heshima. Nakuombea Maisha mema. My true love ❤️."

(My dreams have come true for getting a child. Welcome to the world, my child. You've changed my name to a parent now and given me respect. I pray for you to have a good life)

Before getting into the delivery room, Felicity had given some words of wisdom to pregnant mothers.

"Got a chance to interact with my nutritionist, Dr.Jesse, once again. Eating healthy throughout your pregnancy could reduce the chances of some complications."

Thee Pluto described his lover as his superhero.

"Let me begin this by simply saying that to me, you are a superhero. A strong person for whom my admiration and love grows every single day. You’ve never looked more beautiful."

Before adding;

"Part of me is terrified about what is to come. I worry about the baby not liking me, or about stuffing up and not being able to help with the feeds properly. That they might make you upset or somehow change the incredible dynamic that we have always had."
