Rio Psalm had to be brought into the world much earlier than planned due to pre-eclampsia – a hypertensive pregnancy disorder.

So, the baby's early days were anything but easy for mom Genesis, and she often turned to TikTok to share her experiences.

But she also found the humor in it all, especially after finally being discharged from the hospital.

As one viral clip shows, little Rio was in for some trouble – at the hands of his furry older brother.
