Cori Broadus Gives Birth Prematurely While Battling Health Scare

In a heartwarming yet nerve-wracking twist, Snoop Dogg’s daughter, Cori Broadus, known to fans as “Choc,” has officially joined the mommy club after giving birth to her first child three months ahead of schedule. The exciting news dropped on February 28 via her Instagram, where the 25-year-old mama opened up about her unexpected journey into motherhood and a serious health scare. Her adorable baby girl made her grand debut at just 25 weeks, and despite the odds, Cori declared in her post, “She’s perfect as ever!”
In a revealing Instagram story, Cori explained that she initially thought her discomfort was just a “bad case of gas.” However, after a doctor’s visit, she learned she was developing HELLP syndrome—a severe pregnancy complication notoriously linked to preeclampsia. According to the Preeclampsia Foundation, HELLP can be life-threatening if not caught early, underscoring how critical it was for Cori to seek medical attention in time. This stunning revelation makes it clear that not only has Cori welcomed a beautiful bundle of joy, but she’s also triumphed over a potentially fatal scenario, reminding us all to listen to our bodies.
The emotional rollercoaster didn’t stop there. She underwent a successful cesarean section (C-section), sharing snippets of her hospital experience with her followers, and expressing her gratitude to her support system and to God. Cori’s mom, Shante Broadus, and her fiancé Wayne Deuce have both been by her side, with Shante celebrating the arrival of her new granddaughter with emotional Instagram shout-outs. The baby marks Snoop’s eighth grandchild, adding to his growing army of grandkids, with him previously declaring that their happiness is his “crowning achievement in life.” So, it seems like the Broadus family has a lot to celebrate!
Cori’s candid updates not only shed light on her personal experience but also serve as a vital reminder about pregnancy health and the importance of medical awareness. As she puts it, “Ladies please listen to your bodies,” a message everyone can rally behind. With new life in the fold, it’s clear this family has a lot to look forward to—congratulations to the Broadus clan!
