Surprise Baby

On March 29th the Scollin family gave birth to their second child, Cole. This pregnancy was not a normal one by any means. Jennifer Scollin did not know she was pregnant until Coles birth. She had no weight gain, the same menstrual cycles, and no kicks or bumps in her stomach. Four days before the birth she started getting horrible stomach pains; she tried to handle the pain but ended up calling her husband, Matthew. He rushed home and not much time after, her water broke. The birth was happening so rapidly that they paramedics couldn't even make it to the hospital and ended up delivering in their own driveway. Cole ended up coming out healthy despite the Scollins not knowing of his arrival!

I thought this was almost unbelievable, everyone I know who has had kids have had huge stomachs, and used all 9 months to plan for their baby!

If this happened to you in the future how would you handle the situation? What do you think doctors thought of this?

  • Excellent job, Halley!!

  • I find that hard to believe how did the baby not show in her stomach, I would have freaked out if I was the husband

    • Yes especially since it was a full term, healthy baby. The husband seemed calm and happy in the video. 

  • oh my gosh!...how do you not know your pregnant??? thats scary that she didnt know... she could have been drinking or smoking and hurting the baby and not even kn

  • This is crazy, but not unheard of there's people that don't know they are pregnant all the time. But I think it would be a happy and exciting surprize. 

    • me too. As long as the baby is healthy.

  • I wouldn't even be able to think. This so crazy and so strange. If I were the doctors I would be looking into this a lot more.

    • Me too. People say it has become common, but it's still so weird to me. Doctors should figure something out.

  • What!! Woah #ididntknowiwaspregnant Wow!!! What a blessing to have the baby healthy and safe, although he was such a surprise!!! 

    • Maybe they will put it on the show! And I totally agree.
