Mom-to-be: The former Love Island star, 27, is expecting her first child, a baby boy, with boyfriend Mark O’Connor later this year.
“Our main thought was that it probably wasn’t anything sinister, but we just wanted to be sure.
“We were in triage and they made a little cardiac monitor that checks the heartbeat, we did it twice and it looked good.
“The baby was moving but in a weird position so we’re having some additional tests but I’m feeling so much better, sorry I went off the grid.”
Captioning her post, she later wrote: ‘NHS have such a lovely team at our hospital. Feel bad as obviously understaffed.
“We were there on Tuesday from 10:15 pm to 2:45 am, we came back yesterday and the midwives, doctors and sonographers were very helpful.
“The babies’ bellies seemed small, so we will be back for a growth scan and possibly another test if we get a call today from fetal medicine.
“I felt a bit bad at first about going, but I think it’s important to go with your gut and be overly cautious.”
In a second video, Montana encouraged her fans to “bring snacks” if they have to visit A&E, revealing that her boyfriend Mark had to go get his McDonald’s, which she ate in the waiting room.
