Weeks before son Jack was due, Anna Faris woke up "in the middle of the night in a small puddle of fluid," which prompted doctors to admit her to the hospital for a week-long bedrest, per E! News. She then went into labor, delivering her son who weighed just three pounds and 10 ounces.
In excerpts from Faris' memoir (via Woman's Day), the actress was given little time to hold Jack before he was taken to the NICU. Looking back on that day, Faris said, "When you have a healthy pregnancy, you never wonder if you'll get to hold your son right after he's born. It's a given. I was terrified, but I also knew I had to be a soldier."
Faris and her son remained in the hospital for one month. During this period, doctors found that Jack had severe brain bleeding, among other health issues.
