Deiondra Says Baby Que Is A “Blessing” From God
O X, Deiondra opened up about her ever-present obstacle in having a healthy pregnancy: fibroids.
“Doctors said its a miracle Baby Que found a safe space in my uterus to latch on too and get nutrients. They said my fibroids are like cobblestone within my uterus. This baby is destined by God. Thank you, Jesus, for my blessing.”
This isn’t the first time the new mommy has spoken about her health in relation to her pregnancy. In her birth announcement, Deiondra Sanders revealed several challenges she and baby Que had to overcome.
“WE MADE IT YALL. Through every challenge—the fibroids, the threatened miscarriages, the shortened cervix, the cerclage, the myomectomies, the wisdom of age(keep it cute lol), placenta accreta and taking my entire uterus, the bed rest, and the prayers to reach 28 weeks—by the grace of God, WE MADE IT.”
Ultimately, she welcomed her first child at 36 weeks. He weighed six pounds and 13 ounces and was 18 inches long. Additionally, she revealed that the doctor who delivered her God-destined baby also delivered her as an infant.
As for whom the child resembles, Deiondra hinted on X that her baby boy is “a redbone like his grandma.” Still, the parents have yet to reveal Que’s face or full name. We do know that the little one shares his birthday with his legendary grandfather, Deion Sanders.
“I was gon say Dang that Doctor look like @jacquees . Proud of y’all. Keep him before God, and God will keep him before us,” Deion wrote in the comment section of Deiondra’s arrival announcement.
What’s Tea With Deiondra & Jacquees’ Relationship?
As previously reported, the internet first learned of Deiondra’s pregnancy after an exchange of shady posts with her fiancé’s ex-girlfriend, Dreezy, in February.
Dreezy used the private information to clown Sanders on social media. The rapper claimed Jacquees was still secretly pursuing her while expecting a child he didn’t want with Deiondra.
About a month later, Deiondra confirmed she was pregnant with a video post. She clarified that she didn’t get pregnant “to keep a man.” Instead, she revealed that having a child was something doctors told her wasn’t possible.
“I’m having my baby for the 4 myomectomy surgeries I have had,” she wrote. “I am having my baby for all the years I stayed on birth control even though it gave me breast tumors. I’m having my baby for all the Doctors that told me I wouldn’t make it out the first trimester. I’m having a baby for the 7 current fibroids that surrounds my uterus to this day. I’m having a baby for all the high risk moms that was scared everyday thinking they would miscarry… I’m having this baby to give hope to all the other women that may be in my situation. No matter what Doctor’s say, GOD HAS THE FINAL SAY,” she wrote at the time.
In May, she went viral after saying in a video that she and Jacquees child will not be a junior because she’s “not married.” She later explained her reasoning on X (see below).
By July, Jacquees was on his knee proposing at their baby shower, and Deiondra accepted. It’s unclear whether the couple has already picked a wedding date amid their newborn baby bliss!
