"I just remember thinking, I can't leave three children behind," the 39-year-old actress reveals to US Weekly about spending 10 weeks in the hospital pregnant with her latest son Finn suffering from a condition that caused massive internal bleeding and nearly forced doctors to terminate her pregnancy.

The Beverly Hills, 90210 star tells the new issue of the magazine on newsstands Friday that she was diagnosed with the condition -- called placenta previa -- 20 weeks into her pregnancy with Finn. Doctors said the complication could have been caused because Spelling got pregnant with Finn just one month after Hattie was born.
