This woman had no idea she was pregnant and gave birth at work!
Is this a miracle baby? Local woman from Gauteng didn't know she was pregnant and went into labour while she was in work!
I love watching shows like “I didn’t know I was pregnant” on the TV.
I often don’t think it’s real because well, most reality TV is scripted anyway. But then I came across this post on Facebook of a lady who lives in Gauteng that gave birth at work. She didn’t even know she was pregnant.
Dorothy (not her real name) says she had no morning sickness and her tummy did not grow. The only thing that happened was that she had a loss of appetite. She went to the clinic because she could not eat. They did tests on her but did not pick up that she was pregnant,’ she said.
Dorothy says that she has three adult children and that all three previous pregnancies were ‘normal’.
She said that Peyton is her miracle baby and is very happy and excited to have given birth. She added that her partner was also very excited about the addition. ‘We are both very shocked, happy and excited’ all at the same time.
Having a baby takes so much time and preparation, never mind the shock on your body, but this lady didn’t know she was pregnant.
She carried a baby for 40 weeks and didn’t notice anything different about herself for 40 weeks.
Can you tell I’m having a difficult time digesting this?
This is a miracle baby indeed!
As the posts suggest, she should be named Simangaliso, or Simangele or Dimakatso all of which would be perfectly suited to this miracle girl!
Dorothy’s boss posted on a Facebook group asking fellow mommies to assist in helping with any baby clothes or accessories as Dorothy had no idea she was pregnant and had not prepared anything for the baby. Some mommies were in shock, questioning how she did not know she was not pregnant through the nine months.
Most of the ladies came forward with donations.
Do you know of any stories similar, where ladies didn’t know they were pregnant?
