Why Did General Hospital Need To Kill A Baby For Christmas?

General Hospital: Sasha (Sofia Mattsson), Brando (Johnny Wactor),General Hospital spoilers reveal Brando and Sasha making the ultimate decision about their baby later this week — they have to let him go.

General Hospital’s – Baby Tale Goes Wrong

Babies and children drying on soaps is not a new thing, but it is always heartbreaking. We watched Days of Our Lives’ Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall) lose her son, DJ to SIDS back in 1980, and Hope (Kristian Alfonso) and Bo (Peter Reckell) lose their son, Zack, when he was hit by a car. On All My Children, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) — when she lived in Pine Valley — lost her daughter, Leora. Even General Hospital did a placental abruption storyline with Sam’s (Kelly Monaco) baby, Lila, back in 2005.

But nothing can prepare us for such a thing and it always seems senseless. But nothing seems more senseless than what General Hospital just did to Sasha (Sofia Mattsson), Brando (Johnny Wactor), and their baby.

GH Spoilers – Sasha Gilmore And Brando Corbin’s Baby Won’t Make It

After a one-night stand in the back seat of a car, Sasha Gilmore found herself pregnant with Brando Corbin’s baby and the pair decided they would co-parent together while they clearly fell in love during her pregnancy. And that pregnancy was practically idyllic for soap standards, which is why we should have known something like this should happen.

Yes, Sofia Mattsson was pregnant so General Hospital decided to write her pregnancy into the show, although it didn’t have to, considering that at that point, Sasha was not a front-burner player and her pregnancy could have been hidden. But clearly, the writers saw this pregnancy as a way to create drama for the character. We just didn’t think the drama would come nine months later.

When Sasha’s baby did not die at birth, it gave us hope that the show would not do what it is doing, but that was not meant to be. Poor Sofia Mattsson, a new mom herself, now has to play scenes where her character grieves the loss of her newborn son — at Christmas, no less.

GH fans have been praying for a character to die and his name is Peter August (Wes Ramsey). Killing a baby in such a cruel and sad way was not what fans were asking for. Bah-humbug, GH? Stay tuned to General Hospital weekdays as Brando and Sasha rip our hearts out.
