Sophie Hinchcliffe, known as Mrs Hinch to her loyal followers, gave birth to her third child just three weeks ago, but was rushed to hospital after developing worrying symptoms
Instagram sensation Mrs Hinch has rushed herself to hospital with a blood clot, just weeks after giving birth.
The cleaning guru Sophie Hinchcliffe, 35, told her followers that she needed an emergency operation after developing alarming symptoms, just three weeks after she gave birth to her third child, Vinnie.
Speaking on her Instagram stories, an emotional Sophie said: “I had a blood clot in my groin / pelvis / leg area.
“I haven’t had one since 2018 and then another one decides to hit me three weeks postpartum. What a 12 months it’s been.”
The new mum, who shot to fame for her home cleaning hacks, described in detail what happened.
Speaking from a hospital bed, she told her five million Instagram followers: “They managed to go in through my leg. They didn’t go through in my neck in the end.
“They hoovered out the blood clot and they hoovered my stents out. They’ve literally hoovered me which is ironic isn’t it?
“I think I’ve still got quite a lot of painkillers or anaesthetic in my system so I’m probably not making sense.”
However, she shared the good news that the doctors said she could go home on Friday.
Sophie said: “I cannot wait to just pick up Vinnie – that newborn smell. I’m swear I’m getting withdrawal symptoms from him.”
She continued: “I’ve had a lovely FaceTime with the boys, that was amazing, and I should be back home in my newborn bubble with my little family tomorrow.
“I got put through a CT scan and they said there’s no blood clot, you can go home. I went home; my leg got bigger and bigger. I came back to a different hospital and they scanned me and said we need to operate, you’ve got a big blood clot.”
Reflecting on the ordeal, she said: “How mad is that? And that keeps playing on my mind. What if I didn’t come back? Just trust your gut guys. Trust your bloody gut. Anyway over and out from me and blood clot.
“I can’t wait to wake up in the morning and get home.”
