At my 32+6 pregancy week eco, doctor said the baby was smaller than expected but everything seemed ok. That week I felt tired, had some reflux and my urine was a little dark; besides that everything was ok.

That night at the hospital my baby and I were monitored, and the very same morning I was rushed to the OR for an emergency c-section. During the delivery of my baby, doctors saw a big hemorrage that was the consequence of a ruptured liver. I had to overcome a liver surgery and be on induced comma for 4 days at the ICU.
