A rough day. Sean Lowe revealed that his 1-year-old son with wife Catherine Giudici, Isaiah, underwent a surgical procedure for an undescended testicle.
“My little dude had surgery today,” the former Bachelor, 35, wrote on Instagram on Monday, May 20. “One of his jewels didn’t quite make it down to the little jewel bag at birth, but all is as it should be now!”
The toddler, who sipped from a cup on the reality star’s lap at Cook’s Children’s Medical Center in Fort Worth, Texas, in Lowe’s photo, appeared to be doing just fine post-operation. “He’s back home, happy and healthy,” he confirmed. “Thank you Jesus!”
One day prior Giudici, 33, shared a photo of herself kissing her little one’s cheek on Instagram as he smiled a toothy grin.
It’s not Isaiah’s first go-round at the hospital: In November, he gave his parents a scare when he landed in the pediatric ICU with bronchiolitis when he was just 6 months old.
“Long story short — we took our little dude to the pediatrician yesterday for a bad cough he developed and ended up in the pediatric ICU,” Lowe wrote on Instagram at the time. “His little body is having a tough time getting enough oxygen.”
He added of his youngest son, who was hooked up to an oxygen machine, “He’s not having the best time but the doctors and nurses have been great and we’re just super thankful we took him to the doctor when we did.”
The Bachelor Nation star and his wife, who also share son Samuel, 2, are now planning for a larger brood. “Originally when I met Sean, I wanted five [kids],” Giudici told Us Weekly earlier this month. “He’s like, ‘Whoa.’ I’m like, ‘OK, maybe four.’ … I want a girl naturally next and then [to] adopt a girl. Then you get sisters and brothers.”
She added: “I think it will be a beautiful family. We’ll see what happens.”
The twosome met on the 17th season of the ABC hit and tied the knot in a live wedding ceremony in January 2014.
