People have been left in shock after a woman pulled a shocker by giving birth to a baby she carried for 17 months.
This might sound quite unbelievable! A
woman identified as Wang Shi has broken medical records after giving
birth to a baby she carried for 17 months.
CCTVNews reports that the medical
mystery intrigued Wang and her husband, Kang Zhiwei, who live in
Tianping, Hunan Province. So the concerned couple went for a check-up
almost every week, and during her pregnancy, Wang made 30 trips to the
hospital, which cost them over 10,000 yuan.
During the 14th month, the doctor said
her placenta was at level-II, which meant a caesarean birth was not safe
for the young life.
Her worried husband who could not
understand what was happening was told that a US woman was pregnant for
just over 12 months. But Wang now holds the record for being pregnant
for the longest period.
During her pregnancy, doctors said Wang
was healthy – she weighed 52.5kg before she conceived and 78kg while
pregnant. Wang finally delivered the baby on the 18th month. She gave
birth to a healthy newborn weighing 3.8kg.
“Thanks to advanced medication, we’re not that worried,” the newborn’s grandmother said.
“I’m not expecting my grandson to speak as soon as he was born [after all these months],” she joked.
