She told OK! Magazine that she felt upset because her birthing plan didn’t work out.

“Some people have such smooth births but I just can’t fathom that. I feel like my body failed me,”she shared.

Marnie had to have an episiotomy when she was giving birth to her baby boy. An episiotomy is when the midwife makes a cut between your vagina and anus to help avoid tearing and to make the vagina wider for birth.

The new mum revealed that she haemorrhage during the birth.

“Then when I was delivering I haemorrhaged and I lost so much blood that I had to have two blood transfusions. I lost two pints of blood and there are nine pints in a woman’s body!" she added.
