General Hospital (GH) spoilers preview teases that Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) are in for some big moments during the week of September 30 to October 4 as the birth of their child takes place. The new GH weekly preview promo is all about the new Corinthos baby who will be making his or her way into the world via emergency c-section delivery.
As GH viewers know, this isn’t just any regular birth, as the baby has been diagnosed with Spina Bifida. And while it’s clear that the baby will have some challenges, it will be unclear until the baby’s born just how severe the disabilities will be. It could be a relatively mild form of the disorder, or the baby could suffer from severe and life-threatening problems.
The birth is also happening sooner than expected, as Carly was supposed to have a scheduled c-section in a couple weeks. But the baby had other ideas and Carly went into labor, making an emergency c-section necessary. And that’s where GH viewers will pick up the story this week.
Of course, Carly was shocked and terrified to go into early labor. Fortunately, she was with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), who rushed her to the hospital. After some tense moments without Sonny by her side, Sonny arrived to take his place beside his wife. The promo shows Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell), Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Lexi Ainsworth), and Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) anxiously waiting at the hospital and sharing some concerned looks as Carly and Sonny are in the delivery room.
Carly in particular looks quite scared by the whole event, as she’s worried about the baby’s condition and the difficulties that he or she will face after birth. As GH viewers may remember, the baby must undergo surgery immediately after birth, so Sonny and Carly probably won’t get the tender post-birth moments with their baby – something that will be quite difficult for Carly to face.
Fortunately, Sonny will be reassuring and Carly’s rock. He’s shown in the promo telling Carly that they’re going to get through this, adding that Carly looks beautiful and that he can’t wait to meet the baby. He’ll stay by Carly’s side in the operating room, as the medical team performs the surgery and tends to baby Corinthos. Sonny may be scared, too, but he’ll put on a brave face to help Carly get through the birth.
GH spoilers have been mum about exactly what’s going to happen with Sonny and Carly’s baby going forward. Will the baby require extensive medical treatment and wind up with severe disabilities? Or will the baby’s difficulties be relatively minor? Either way, the Corinthos family stick together, and they’ll get the support from their extended family as well.
It sounds like we’re in for some gripping scenes as the newest member of the Corinthos family is brought into the world. Stay tuned to the ABC soap and don’t forget to check CDL often for the latest General Hospital spoilers, updates, and news.
