And so when this came along, I had 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:34.000 just found out that I was pregnant. And oh I 0:03:34.120 --> 0:03:38.200 found out because I was at the upfronts for my 0:03:38.600 --> 0:03:42.800 reality show and I got a terrible migraine. I was 0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:46.640 there with my newborn who was a month old, my 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:50.360 other two kids, and I got such a bad migraine. 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.520 I you know, did what they needed me to do, 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.680 and I had to go to the er and my 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.760 husband took me to the er and it was like 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:02.840 out of a soap opera. Literally, they were like, okay, 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:05.440 you know, we want to give you, you know, pain medication 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:07.960 and this cocktail. It's going to help the migraine. And 0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:12.120 I like, had such a horrible migraine. And they said, 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.960 but before we do that, we just have to do, like, 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.160 you know, a p test, just to make sure you're 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:20.640 not pregnant. And I was like, I'm not pregnant. I 0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:23.680 was like, in fact, I have a newborn home. She's 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:27.160 a month old, Like I just had a baby. No worries, 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:30.200 and they were like, I'm sorry, it's protocol. So they 0:04:30.200 --> 0:04:32.640 did the p test and then the doctor came in. 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:33.160 It was like. 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:35.360 Straight out of like Days of Our Lives or something, 0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:41.440 and he was like, uh, misspelling, holding the clipboard dressed 0:04:41.440 --> 0:04:43.040 and my eyes are like half open because I was 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.719 in so much pain. He's like, so we got the 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:49.880 results and you're pregnant, and I was just like what 0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:56.400 my eyes open for that. I was like again, no, no, no, 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.240 it's just not possible, like I just had a newborn. 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:04.360 And they said, well, okay, we can't give you any medication. 0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:06.080 I was like, we have to break the migraine. I 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:10.240 have to work tomorrow. And I said, well, is there 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.000 another option. We can do a blood test and I said, 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:16.240 do the blood test. I'm not pregnant. Yeah, do the 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:18.920 blood test. It up came back. It was like it 0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:21.559 was like that human that like takes like fifty piece 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:24.760 sticks and like my pregnant and pregnant just throws them 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.080 all out. I was like, keep going, keep going, you know, 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:30.360 and came back and they're like, you're one thousand percent 0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:37.000 pregnant early on. So anyway, so that happened. 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:37.159 And. 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:42.440 Yeah, so I got offered this movie, and I just 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:46.200 remember thinking, oh my gosh, like I'm supposed to be 0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:51.840 singing and dancing and being cute, and I don't know, 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:54.599 I know it doesn't work that way anymore, but still, 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:57.200 I was like, I don't want anything to jeopardize this, 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:00.680 so I'm not going to tell them I'm pregnant. So 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.520 by the time I left to do the movie, unfortunately, 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:09.960 because I got pregnant a month after. Weeks after I 0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.559 had a sea section and it was my third one, 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:17.359 and the doctor said, you know, you know, they always 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:19.960 tell you can't have sex, you know, like six weeks, 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:24.479 especially with the sea section. And I just remember three 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:29.480 weeks after we had Hattie, my husband being like getting 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:31.640 frisky and I was like, wait, wait, we can't we 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:34.840 have to wait six weeks and he's like, I don't 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:37.840 think we waited that long, you know before, Like I think, 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:40.119 I think it's fine, and they're not putting any blame 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:45.240 on him. I was a willing participant here, yeah, so 0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:49.719 I was like, okay, okay, and yeah that one time, right, Yeah, 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:55.280 so you're pregnantulating like not at all, how it's so 0:06:55.960 --> 0:07:03.120 star So there came Finn and unfortunately, because I got 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:09.960 placent to previa, which you basically yes, it's like covering 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:14.120 the cervix and it's super dangerous and they can't tell 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:17.080 you why you get it, but probably because the scarring 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:19.880 and the I got pregnant so fast after it wasn't 0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:24.720 healed and anyway, I got placenta previa. So I had 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:29.280 my first bleed like days before I left for Utah 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.120 for missiletones, and I'm talking, I thought I was having 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:35.760 a miscarriage. There was blood everywhere, and I was horrified. 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:40.280 And my doctor, who was also a good is also 0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:43.080 a good friend, said, I came in, he saw me, 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:46.240 and he said, the baby looks good, like it's early on. 0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:51.080 We can't predict what's gonna happen, but in no way, 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:54.560 shape or form, you going and doing this is going 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:56.960 to put it at risk, you know, if it's not 0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:01.200 meant to be and it's gonna go. So I got 0:08:01.240 --> 0:08:04.680 on that plane thinking terrified because I was like, oh 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:08.320 my gosh, I'm thought I was having a miscarriage. I'm pregnant. 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:11.080 I don't want to lose my baby. I'm terrified to 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:15.960 tell them I'm pregnant. And then they were like it 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:17.600 was the whole issue. I mean, you're a singer, so 0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:21.800 you're a great singer. But as you know, I've been 0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:23.760 better since I was on mass singer. I did. I 0:08:23.800 --> 0:08:27.240 did okay, But singing was like a huge fear of mine. 0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.400 And they're like, and it's a musical. I'm like, oh, 0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:30.720 I don't tell musical. 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:33.119 I know that was a huge spear of yours. 0:08:33.200 --> 0:08:36.439 Oh my gosh. Well, when I was young, someone told 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:38.080 me I was I used to have to sing, told 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:42.920 me I was tone deaf, oh, missle tone that's funny, 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.960 which I'm happy to report I'm not. But then I 0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:50.680 did missletone, and then so definitely they brought me into 0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:55.040 the studio and I recorded everything. But then they have 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.280 and you'll know this, I won't know this. They have 0:08:57.520 --> 0:08:59.679 someone and they blend the voices. 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:00.600 Mm hmm. 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.600 So who And this woman was such an amazing singer, 0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:06.520 and I was like, she needs all the accolades. So 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:09.120 I didn't understand. I thought it was going to be like, oh, 0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:12.199 like some of mine, some of hers. I mean when 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:14.720 I listened to like All I Want for Christmas, I 0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:16.920 was like, whoa, I can hear me in there like 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:22.520 here here, here, But it was like really her, but 0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:25.360 but anyway, they did that, and then I was like, 0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:29.320 knowing I'm pregnant, they're kind of dancing and they're like, 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:31.520 oh oh yeah, no no, it's like it would be 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.679 barely anything.

I 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.840 remember at one point because we had to wear like 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:42.520 our sparkly tight dresses, and I called my doctor and 0:12:42.559 --> 0:12:45.200 I was like, listen, I'm going to do the right thing. Here. 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.040 Is it okay to put spanks on? And I had 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:51.240 like the baby bump spanks, you know, everything. And I said, 0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:56.080 because I don't know what to do, and he was like, yes, 0:12:56.240 --> 0:12:59.280 it's okay to wear spanks. This is not going to 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:00.000 affect you. 0:13:00.440 --> 0:13:01.440 Oh. 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:05.120 So I had layers of spanks and anyway, so that 0:13:05.280 --> 0:13:08.679 was happening. I wasn't able to tell anybody, and it 0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:12.480 was a trying time. But and I went on to 0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:16.480 have a very difficult pregnancy, nothing related to anything that 0:13:16.480 --> 0:13:21.120 happened on Missiletones, but went home and literally like almost 0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:25.200 bled out. Was then put in the hospital and on 0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:28.920 bed rest, had to lay flat for two and a 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:33.880 half months of the pregnancy. They didn't they they did 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:37.040 that thing, like they did that thing where they came 0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.720 in and gave you chances and they're like, you've bled 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:45.319 out so much at this point that the chances and 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:49.000 I remember them saying less than five percent that the 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:52.240 baby's going to take and I was like, oh my god, okay, 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:55.000 and I was just but you can't move. You had 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:58.480 to just lay there. And it was anyway, a really 0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:00.199 really hard time, but I had just come back from 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:03.640 an amazing experience. Sorry it's a Christmas movie. Why am 0:14:03.679 --> 0:14:07.560 I telling this? But the good news is a miracle happened. 0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:14.960 Pla sent a previa moved, not just moved, moved, and. 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:18.040 He was born gay. 0:14:17.600 --> 0:14:23.280 And healthy and he's now twelve years old.
