Ex-Miss Universe suffers serious labour complications during childbirth – because of her six packs.


FITNESS guru Chontel Duncan made headlines for rocking a full set of abs during her pregnancy, but now the 27-year-old has revealed her six-pack caused serious complications.

Chontel Duncan, now the proud Fit Mom to 7-month-old son Jeremiah, shared a photo of her C-section scar and wrote a moving post about how although she wanted to have a vaginal delivery, things didn’t turn out as planned.
 
The 27-year-old was told by doctors that she'd have to have a c-section. And on Friday she shared on Instagram the fact that her muscular physique meant that she "locked" her baby in, and caused her to vomit.

“They struggled to rip Jeremiah from my tummy as my abs locked him in super tight as I began
vomiting during the operation," she wrote. “This is why my scar was cut up on my right side because the surgeon had to cut me further and use forceps to successfully get Jeremiah out. “Perhaps a down-side to a strong core.”

Luckily, Chontel's son Jeremiah was delivered within 20 minutes, and didn't suffer. He was born in March, but the super-fit mum has only just shared the details of her difficult birth.
Duncan gave birth to baby Jeremiah in March, via an emergency caesarean.
Although she hoped to give birth naturally, she said her mantra was to “go through all means necessary so baby feels nothing”, and when doctors recommended the surgery she immediately signed the forms.
“Within 20 minutes I had my baby in my arms,” she wrote.
The Queensland-based personal trainer and founder of HIIT Australia, maintained toned muscles and a lean frame throughout her pregnancy — despite delivering a seven-pound baby.

The personal trainer said that above all she's just happy to become a mother.





The former Miss Universe contestant, who is 186 centimetres tall, only put away her boxing gloves and runners seven days before going into labour.
She attracted criticism for her barely-there bump, attributing the tiny belly to “clean eating”.
“Each woman carries different and this most certainly doesn’t mean one is doing something wrong or not healthy,” she said at the time.Baby “Miah” has now become a regular on her Instagram feed, as Duncan shares the highs and lows of her parenting experience with her 572,000 followers.After a mandatory six-week rest, she bounced back into her training regimen, regaining her pre-birth body within months.

She told her followers she would love to have three more children, and says she will try for a vaginal delivery.
“So to all the women out there wearing a caesarean scar, I am VERY proud of what mine means and for the beautiful gift I received through mine,” she wrote. “They are memories of the day we all became mummies.”
