Lady surprisingly gives birth without knowing she was pregnant after being rushed to hospital in fear for her life
A 22-year-old lady, Tawana Musvaburi has shared her unexpected journey from fearing for her life to embracing motherhood after discovering she was pregnant during a hospital visit.
The young lady’s ordeal began when she found herself suddenly bedridden and sensed a severe health issue.
Overwhelmed by fear and confusion, she rushed to the hospital, fearing the worst.
To her surprise, she was informed that she was eight months pregnant. Despite her disbelief, she gave birth to a healthy baby girl on February 27, 2023.
Reflecting on her life before the unexpected pregnancy, Tawana described herself as a typical 20-year-old enjoying the nightlife, going out drinking, and partying without any indication or awareness of her pregnancy.
According to her, she never experienced the typical symptoms associated with pregnancy, such as weight gain or a noticeable bump.
In her words;
“I was living my life as a normal 20-year-old at the time going out drinking and partying the whole time, completely unaware that I was pregnant. I never gained any weight or experienced any other symptoms.
“When the nurse told me I was eight months pregnant, I just kept thinking this can’t be my baby and I couldn’t accept it. I didn’t think I wanted to have children, so I was absolutely terrified.
“Before I discovered I was pregnant, I was living the normal life of a 20-year-old. I was out drinking, partying, and all the crazy things 20-year-olds do. I think I am very lucky that all this didn’t damage my daughter in some way.
“After two weeks of the news of my pregnancy settling in my mind, it was like my body just started to catch up which helped me accept it too.
“It was such a horrible and stressful time because there was so much to sort out in such a short space of time.Â
“Babies aren’t cheap either. I couldn’t have done it without the help and support of my family.
“It was overwhelming being a new mother at first, and I was slightly depressed at first because it was difficult to accept how much and quickly my life had changed.
“However, one day I woke up and got into the swing of things, and I was figuring out our new life day by day.
“Now, we are doing perfectly. She’s so bubbly and sassy. She’s talking a lot and I am loving being a mum.”
