Cori, who is Snoop’s youngest child and only daughter, shared in a February 2025 Instagram post that Codi had been born three months early.

“The princess arrived at 6 months,” she wrote in the birth announcement, which included a black-and-white photo of the baby’s foot.

She added, “I’ve cried and cried, I’ve compared and compared, blaming myself that I wasn’t able to give her all that she needed. But no matter what God always shows me that I’m His Child!”

“Baby girl came at 25 weeks today and she’s perfect as ever!” she continued. “Thank You God for getting me this far no matter the odds that are constantly thrown against me 🙏.”

In an Instagram Stories post shared the same day, Cori revealed that she had delivered the baby via C-section after doctors told her she was developing HELLP syndrome, which stands for Hemolysis (the process of red blood cell destruction), Elevated Liver enzymes and Low Platelets.

Codi ultimately spent 10 months in the NICU, with Cori sharing that she finally was able to bring her baby home in early January.

“She’s home. 🤍,” she captioned a Jan. 6 Instagram post featuring herself and Codi snuggling together on her bed. “Thank you for every prayer, every message, every ounce of love. God heard them all. 🕊️✨.”

Cori first announced she was pregnant with a daughter in December 2024.

“I found out Oct. 28,” she said while speaking to E! News.

“I’m a high-risk pregnancy, and doctors were very concerned for me and the baby, but God has his hands on me,” she added at the time.
