When Beyonce steps out at the Grammys Sunday night (Feb. 12), at presumably around the 5-month mark, she’ll be carrying not one but two babies, a factor that can make a serious difference when it comes to performing.
Multiples bring with them an increased chance of premature delivery, a significant consideration when it comes to performing past a certain point in the pregnancy,
according to Dr. Jacques Moritz, who specializes in obstetrics and gynecology at Weill Cornell Medicine in New York.
“She’s lucky because up until this point, it’s really kind of like being pregnant with one child. So there really shouldn’t be any restrictions, for me, until past twenty weeks,” says Dr. Moritz. And after 20-weeks?
“I’m sure she’s going to have to slow down because the major risk of twins in general is prematurity,” he says, giving credence to the rumors that Beyonce’s Coachella headlining gig might end up being canceled.
Dr. Moritz cautions that while mothers of single babies can be active throughout pregnancy, if they feel up to it, carrying multiples can make that harder.
“Her shows are pretty exhausting even to watch. I think after twenty weeks it’s going to be really tough for her to do her thing. And she’ll notice it. Even though she’s in excellent shape she’ll be more tired.”
