A 44-year-old Michigan woman went to her local hospital for abdomen pains. Fifteen hours later, Linda Ackley was a first time mom. Turns out the suspected "hernia" was a baby girl ready to make her big debut.
MLive.com has the full story. Ackley was completely clueless about her pregnancy until she and her husband, Mike, went to the hospital. The couple had long believed they could not get pregnant. Linda hadn't experienced significant weight gain and her menstrual periods had "always been irregular" according to MLive.com.
When Linda arrived at the hospital complaining of bloating of her abdomen, doctors thought it may be a hernia and ordered a scan. It was then that medical staff discovered a full-term baby in the womb. An emergency C-section was ordered and Kimberley Kay Ackley was born.
"I was happy and shocked at the same time, and scared," Mike Ackley told MLive.com. He said he wished somebody had taken a picture of his face when he heard that Linda was going to have a baby.
