Massachusetts, US (BBN)-A 47-year-old woman found out she was pregnant just one hour before she gave birth to a healthy baby girl after going to the hospital because she was suffering from severe abdominal pain.
Judy Brown, from Beverly, Massachusetts, attributed her growing stomach to weight gain and the physical changes that went along with her pregnancy to her entering the ‘next phase of life’, reports the Daily Mail.
But after her stomach pain became unbearable, she and her 48-year-old husband Jason, went to Beverly Hospital on Wednesday and learned she was pregnant for the first time.
The new mom told WCVB that after a physical exam her doctor told her: ‘It’s good news, you don’t have any blockages or anything. You are pregnant – and you are going to have her now.’
Just an hour later, Judy and Jason welcomed their healthy eight-pound daughter, Carolyn Rose, into the world.
When it came to having children the couple of 22 years always thought ‘if it happens, it happens’ – although they likely never considered it would happen at this late stage in their lives.
But while they had no idea she was expecting, Judy said that their daughter is already ‘daddy’s little girl’.
‘When she cries I am there,’ Jason told WCVB.
