A young woman from New Jersey prepared a funny video to announce the birth of her child. She then gained popularity.
Why? A 20-year-old nursing student named Kayla Simpson revealed in that post that she found out she was pregnant 15 minutes before giving birth to her child.
The music made fun of a parent’s first night with a new child and was, in this instance, lifted from TikTok inventor Charlie Cooper. «Do you want a beer?» and a picture of Simpson’s child are the first two lines in the movie; she made utilizing that sound. She then says, «I don’t know, what am I meant to do with him!»
Simpson emphasizes her age and status as a college student in her TikTok, along with that audio and her new video, to assist play into the surprise birth and her current status as a first-time mother.
With barely 900,000 views and no «I had a kid» comment, Simpson made her pregnancy announcement in the funniest, most viral way possible for Generation Z.
In cryptic pregnancies, as the one Simpson revealed in her video, a woman is abnormally pregnant but is unaware of it. Yes, it does happen outside of the «I Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant» documentary series, and it happens more frequently than most people realize.
Hard to gauge, experts claim
Reproductive health specialists Joanna McGrath and Maggie Stanley from Shore Physicians Group OB/GYN Midwifery Services claim that there is no set period of «unawareness» during which a pregnancy qualifies as mysterious.
In addition, it is challenging to estimate the frequency of cryptic pregnancies due to the different reasons why a woman may not get pregnant until well into term, according to McGrath and Stanley in an interview with NJ Spotlight News.
It’s possible for pregnancy tests to be inaccurate, denial to obscure important signs, older women’s lack of menstruation being misunderstood for menopause, and some women just not paying close attention to their hormonal cycles.
«Unfortunately, it’s not something that has been explored… Nobody has truly examined the statistics,» Stanley stated.
According to McGrath and Stanley, the current estimate that one in every 475 pregnancies is cryptic is excessive. However, they admit that number could be affected by the many circumstances that are included in the concept of cryptic pregnancy. McGrath added that any mysterious pregnancies she has seen have been in young teenagers or women in their early 20s. Stanley concurred that younger women are typically much more affected by the phenomena.
Although there are many circumstances that can lead to a pregnancy being classified as cryptic, anything unrelated to the «unknown pregnancy,» such as if the pregnancy was preterm, would be marked as the latter, rather than cryptic. This furthers the statistics’ confusion and demonstrates why cryptic pregnancies are challenging to track. Additionally, if a pregnancy ended prematurely, it would be regarded as a preterm pregnancy rather than a cryptic pregnancy, even if the mother was not aware of her own pregnancy. Many cryptic pregnancies go unreported as a result of this.
An ordinary evening changed dramatically.
For Kayla Simpson, as for many women who go through a monthly cycle, her mysterious pregnancy story began on an ordinary night.
Then, about three in the morning, light cramping began. But as the pain intensified, she began to feel fear.
Her mother was sleeping downstairs when she called for her.
Her mother questioned, «How bad are you hurting?» Eight out of ten, Simpson responded. Taking a painkiller, retiring to bed, and assuming nothing complicated lay ahead was the straightforward course of action.
The evening, though, took a more abrupt turn.
Soon, mild cramping in Simpson’s lower belly turned into excruciating pain, and as she made her way downstairs to meet her mother, Simpson screamed in despair. The agony has gotten much worse.
Simpson was in excruciating pain for the entire 1.5 hours she waited in the emergency room after running to the hospital. Doctors thought her discomfort was coming from a cyst or exploding appendix, so when she eventually sat in the ultrasound chair, the technician’s eyes widened.
After being hurried into labor, Simpson gave birth to a baby girl whom she called Madi 15 minutes later.
