You've got to be kidding me. The woman quit smoking, gained 30 lbs, then found out she was pregnant the day before giving birth. WTF???

BELLEVUE, Wash. ? Amanda Brisendine attributed the 30 pounds she gained in the past year to an abandoned smoking habit and rich food. So when she went to the hospital with sharp stomach pain, she wasn't expecting to leave with a newborn son.

"I don't know how I didn't know. I just didn't know," Brisendine said Tuesday from her bed at Overlake Medical Center's Birthing Center, where she delivered Alexander Joseph Britt by Caesarean section.

Doctors (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,226983,00.html#) agree her case is not rare.

George Macones, chairman of the OB/GYN department at Washington (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,226983,00.html#) University in St. Louis, said he's seen about a dozen cases in his nearly 20-year career.

The pregnancy (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('pregnancy');) isn't always obvious when a woman is overweight, or a woman will have spotting or bleeding during the pregnancy (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,226983,00.html#) and mistake it for menstruation, said Macones, who specializes in high-risk pregnancies.

Funny. Reminds me of a girl I know. The girl I know had pretty much the same thing happen to her. She went to the hospital thinking she had appendicitis, but instead walked out with a baby. Personally, I still think that she is full of ****, and that she knew full well that she was pregnant. She did one hell of a job hiding it from everybody too, it wasnt til her old roomate saw some of my mutual friends that I found out she had a kid.

Seems like an unlikely story, but then there are those people that go into the hospital for a severe headache that won't go away, and then find out they must have accidentally shot themselves in the head with a nailgun. Sometimes they pull out multiple nails.
