Pregnant Gisele Bündchen concerns fans with cryptic post after warned by doctors of ‘too dangerous’ childbirth

Gisele Bündchen recently shared a life update on Instagram that left fans concerned about her wellbeing, especially considering she is pregnant with her third child. The Brazilian model posted photos of herself enjoying the sun, one holding a mug and another with an open book in hand. While her message was inspiring, the text from the book raised alarms for some followers. The book discusses the grief of losing a parent, with phrases like “a parent’s passing is a profound loss” and “help me in my own process of grief” standing out. Fans, aware of her mother’s passing earlier this year, expressed concern, with one follower asking, “Gisele, are you OK?” and another sharing their worry.

Bündchen has been open about her grief since her mother’s death in January. In a post from May, she admitted that it’s still difficult for her to talk about her mom without becoming emotional. She wrote, “There is not a day that goes by that I don’t miss my Mom.”

This emotional stress is a valid concern given her pregnancy. At 44, Bündchen is carrying her third child, her first with boyfriend Joaquim Valente, and emotional strain can affect both maternal and fetal health, especially in the later stages of pregnancy. Bündchen’s baby bump is already noticeable, and she has been more public about her pregnancy recently after keeping a low profile in the early months, using loose clothing to conceal her growing belly. She even made an appearance at the Lotus House Gala in a black dress that showcased her figure.

Fans are curious about her birth plan, especially considering her past experiences. With her two children from her marriage to Tom Brady, Bündchen had water births at home, despite medical advice against it. She had been advised that water birth was “too dangerous” but chose to go ahead with it, stating that she had always dreamed of giving birth naturally at home. In her 2018 book Lessons: My Path to a Meaningful Life, she recounted how she was encouraged by her midwife, Myra, who told her that water was the “most soothing way for a newborn to enter the world.” Bündchen described her home births as “extraordinary” and empowering, feeling like “Kali, the Hindu goddess of time, creation, destruction, and power.”

Although details about her current pregnancy, including the baby’s gender, remain private, fans are hopeful that this child will bring even more light and joy into her life.
