Until now I never knew one could get pregnant without knowing they are pregnant. I understand that one may not notice the earlier symptoms of pregnancy but to live 9 whole months without knowing a little life is growing in you needs some in depth calculation— you must have a really flat tummy then.
A 20 year old Vietnamese woman has found herself in what I would call an unfathomable situation. One Phan Thi Chay from a poor ethnic Dao family was not aware she was pregnant until she was admitted to the Vi Xuyen General Hospital to give birth.
Not only did she not know she was pregnant but she actually gave birth to twins conjoined at the torso. Doctors had to perform a C-section on her after diagnosing her with fetal stress—saved the conjoined baby boys, who together weigh 4.9 kg. Nguyen Ngoc Chung, the hospital’s deputy director, said the twins have recovered and have separate hearts and lungs.
The hospital has donated money it collected from staff and from its fund for poor the patient.
