Amazing baby stories
Posted on March 17th, 2008 by kimc
My back is fine, y’all, so you can quit worrying about me. If it makes you feel better, I’m leaving for the chiropractor in a few minutes.
In the meantime, here are a few amazing stories that I have been meaning to share for much too long:
- Twins save their mother’s life by kicking loose a tumor while in the womb.
- A baby that doctors said would be deaf, blind and only live a few hours is now healthy and attempting to talk, it is being reported.
- A 26 inch tall woman defied her doctors and miraculously gave birth not once, but twice.
- And a friend ours has a pretty amazing story to tell about the birth of his youngest son.
- If you’d like to read one more unusual birth story, try the birth of our 6th daughter, Rebecca. I delivered her alone in the bathtub. It wasn’t hubby’s fault he was downstairs and couldn’t hear me over the blender.
Just in case you’re interested (and for my own convenience), here are our birth stories for the other children. Don’t worry. I don’t tell graphic stories.
- Deanna, Kaitlyn, Lydia and Megan (all in one post)
- Natalie and Rachael
- Rebecca (you already saw this one above)
- Sarah (stillborn)
- The Boy (Start here. You’ll have to read most of the June 2006 archive for this one. I live-blogged his birth.)

I know of another story where an unborn baby indirectly saved his mother’s life. A woman I know was 8 months pregnant with her 14th baby, when she had some routine bloodwork done. It was then she learned she had leukemia. The type of leukemia she had was a very fast growing kind, and if it hadn’t been caught on time (she still felt perfectly healthy, and would not have had the bloodwork done if she wasn’t pregnant) it probably would have been too late.
