Doctors told Michelle Hui that she had miscarried her unborn baby about six weeks into her pregnancy.
Hui had experienced severe abdominal pain on her way to work one day and then began to bleed – both common signs of a miscarriage, The Weekly Observer reports.
Everyone, including doctors, thought she had lost the baby. But nearly two weeks later, doctors confirmed that she still was pregnant.
The Irish mother and her husband, Ross, now have an 18-month old girl, Megan, their third child, who survived nearly impossible odds in the womb.
The couple said they were so excited when they learned that they were expecting their third child. But six weeks and two days into the pregnancy, Hui said she began to bleed and experience abdominal pain. Ross said he rushed Michelle to the hospital where doctors told them what they had suspected: Their unborn baby was dead. Doctors gave Michelle drugs to expel her dead baby’s body, the same drugs commonly used in abortions, according to the report. She said she took them, trusting that the doctors knew what was best for her.
The next day, Michelle said she met with friends and drank some wine as she mourned the loss of her child.
Later, she said she took another pregnancy test, at her doctor’s instructions, to make sure there were no “residual signs of pregnancy.” The test showed positive, and 10 days after taking the abortion drugs, the hospital staff discovered that she was still pregnant.
