In 2019 Carly Corinthos learned that she was pregnant with her fourth child. She picked Dr. Sofia Navarro as her OB/GYN. Sofia was on staff at General Hospital, and she advised Carly to undergo a series of tests because of Carly's age and medical history.

Unfortunately for Carly and her husband Sonny, tests indicated that there was something wrong with the baby. A sonogram in the early stages of Carly's third trimester raised the possibility that the unborn baby had spina bifida. Sofia counseled the parents, and she assured them that she would make certain that both Carly and the baby received the best care.
