Andi Dorfman Hospitalized After Postpartum Emergency: Shares Vital Recovery Advice

Andi Dorfman, former star of The Bachelorette, revealed she was hospitalized over the weekend after experiencing a medical emergency just days after giving birth to her first child.

Taking to her Instagram Story, Andi shared that a week after welcoming her daughter with husband Blaine Hart, she began feeling intense pain. Medical professionals later diagnosed her with both a large and small hematoma, which occurs when blood pools inside the body.

The reality TV star underwent a swift and safe procedure to address the issue. Reflecting on her experience, she shared a heartfelt message encouraging others to trust their instincts during postpartum recovery.

“No matter how clueless you are about motherhood, you still know your body best! Listen to it!” Andi wrote. She emphasized that while recovery is challenging and varies for everyone, maternal instincts are valid and should be trusted.

She also reassured new moms to lean on their healthcare providers, adding, “Trust that your doctors truly care about your health and well-being, and don’t be afraid to reach out to them.”

Andi concluded her message by addressing feelings of guilt for focusing on her health instead of her newborn. “I realized she’s no good if I’m no good. I hope this helps anyone doubting their postpartum recovery.”

Andi and Blaine welcomed their daughter just days earlier, marking an exciting new chapter in their lives. Fans have been sending the new mom love and support as she continues to recover.
