Cori Broadus, the only daughter of Snoop Dogg, gave birth to her “perfect” first child with fiancé Wayne Deuce at 25 weeks, two months after announcing her pregnancy.
“The princess arrived at 6 months,” Cori wrote in her Feb. 28 Instagram announcement, alongside a picture of the baby’s foot. “Baby girl came at 25 weeks today and she’s perfect as ever!”
She added alongside a prayer hand emoji, “Thank You God for getting me this far no matter the odds that are constantly thrown against me.”
“I’ve cried and cried”
Though the 25-year-old is ecstatic for the baby’s arrival, she also shared the insecurity she felt for not carrying the baby to full term.
“I’ve cried and cried, I’ve compared and compared, blaming myself that I wasn’t able to give her all that she needed,” she continued. “But no matter what God always shows me that I’m His Child!”
Broadus subsequently shared two instagram stories, telling her followers that she underwent a cesarean section (C-section).
“1st c-section was success:) s/o to the man up above,” she captioned the instagram story of her lying on the operating table.
Her second instagram story was shared while she was in her hospital bed. She stated that she visited the doctor on Thursday, February 27, believing she merely had a severe case of gas.
Doctors informed Broadus that she was exhibiting signs of HELLP syndrome.
Ahead of the early arrival of Snoop’s eighth grandchild, Cori—who has battled lupus since she was a child and had been recovering from a stroke in January 2024—had explained that doctors were keeping an eye on her.
“I’m high risk pregnancy and doctors were very concerned for me and the baby,” she told E! News in December, “but God has his hands on me, and me and the baby are doing perfectly fine.”
