The woman gave birth after falling into a
coma
A teenager who didn’t have a clue she was
pregnant fell into a coma and woke up with
a baby.
Ebony Stevenson, 18, initially suffered from
a splitting headache in early December last
year but then suffered a series of seizures
and was rushed to hospital where doctors
put her into a coma.
She then woke up on December 6 to
discover she had given birth to her
gorgeous baby Elodie.
All the time the student was pregnant she
never missed a period, didn’t develop a
baby bump or had morning sickness.
Ebony told the Star on Sunday: “Waking up
from a coma to be told I had been pregnant
and had given birth to a baby girl was
overwhelming to say the least.
“Meeting my baby was so surreal. It felt like
an out of body experience.“I didn’t think I
even wanted kids – at least not for another
ten years – and I never expected to be a
young mum.â€
Doctors discovered Ebony had a rare
condition called uterus didelphys where the
person has two uteruses. Elodie had grown
unnoticed in the one towards Ebony’s back.
Ebony had an emergency caesarean and
Elodie was born on December 3, just three
hours after her first seizure.
Sheree and Ebony’s grandmother Geraldine
initially looked after the newborn for four
days while Ebony was in the coma.
When nurses first presented Ebony with her
baby she thought they had made a mistake
but after Sheree explained what had
happened mother and daughter soon
bonded.
