That's what I was thinking too! Baby getting sick while Ned is out of the country - far too convenient.Forgive me for saying this but who knows for definite if they kept her in and Shiv didn't just grab a couple of pictures of the little one resting in a bed waiting to be seen and created a story around it.
I've seen it all with her. Nothing would surprise me. It's all too convenient.
Only her parents and hospital staff know the truth.
