A hidden pregnancy

Occasionally there are errors that are crowded giving rise to an unexpected situation, it is the case of a woman who gave birth in Vigo to a baby without knowing that she was pregnant. Angustia Mariño, a resident of Oia (Pontevedra), suffered a series of erroneous diagnoses of the doctors who attended her that caused her not to know about her pregnancy.

She was initially diagnosed with a fibrillar tear in her right leg after the specialist inspected her, apparently this woman went to the doctor because she could not stand up. The doctors prescribed rest and various anti-inflammatories. The absence of menstruation was explained by the possible appearance of menopause and the various analyzes that were performed over five months showed no evidence of pregnancy or rather, doctors did not detect them. All kinds of medications were administered to Angustia to treat her alleged ailment, medications that could have seriously affected the proper development of the baby. It is curious the recurrence of errors, since there were several doctors who treated her diagnosing all kinds of problems, urine infection, fluid retention, anemia, etc.

Even on the day of delivery, he went to the emergency room and the specialists indicated that the pain he suffered was related to a nephritic colic. Fortunately, the next day, his family doctor ordered the transfer to the hospital and there they finally found their pregnancy during the last months, his pregnancy.

It never ceases to surprise us that a woman who is pregnant with a baby does not perceive the changes that the body undergoes, and we do not enter the role of doctors, who have already shown that they leave much to be desired. Didn't you think about that possibility because of the woman's age?

Anyway, everything seems to have gone well, now we only have to wait if all these medicines have influenced the good development of the baby.
