What a surprise! Waking up at 4 in the morning with severe abdominal pain, 29-year-old Krystal Gale Emerson from Pensacola, Fla., Decided she was poisoned by Chinese food.
After three hours of "intestinal cramps" the woman, completely unexpected for herself and others, gave birth to a child, writes The Daily Mail.
Crystal had no idea that she was 37 weeks pregnant. For about an hour that very night, she constantly ran to the toilet, being sure that her stomach "twisted" after dinner, which consisted of Chinese dishes.
When the pain intensified, Emerson woke her fiance and asked for an ambulance. She was so bad that Crystal could hardly move. It soon became known that the "Chinese dinner" was a little son weighing 15 pounds (2260 g) and 19 inches (48 cm) tall. The baby, named Oliver James, was born in an ambulance on the way to the hospital.
Crystal case is not uncommon. Indeed, sometimes women are not aware of pregnancy until childbirth begins (especially if the menstrual cycle was previously unstable). Emerson already has an 18-month-old baby, and she says she didn’t feel anything like the symptoms of her first pregnancy and almost didn’t gain weight. At work, she wore workwear with a wide cut, so she did not notice anything.
Although the food was not to blame, according to Crystal, Chinese dishes are unlikely to remain on the list of her favorite delicacies.
