47-Yr-Old Woman Gives Birth To First Child One Hour After Doctors Told Her She Was Pregnant

Judy Brown, from Massachusetts, was rushed to hospital after complaining of severe abdominal pain to then be told she was actually going into labour.

An hour later Judy and her husband of 22 years, Jason, much to their surprise, welcomed their first child together - an 8 pound healthy baby girl. When Judy noticed her stomach had started to grow, she just assumed it was down to menopause.

The new mum told ABC News: "It was a little bit scary getting into the hospital thinking something was really bad was going on."

"To understand and take in that was I pregnant and was about to go into labour, it was very overwhelming."

The couple named their baby girl Carolyn Rose after both of their mothers had to borrow some key baby items like a car seat and bassinet before leaving the hospital.
