A woman who claimed she didn’t know she was seven months pregnant surprised herself and her employer when she gave birth in her Sattahip hotel’s restroom.
Sorawal Selanon, 27, said she’d felt fat and had been gaining weight for six to seven months, but didn’t realize she was pregnant.
She went into labor while working at a hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 61. Both mother and child – who appeared to be about seven months old – survived and were taken to Queen Sirikit Naval Medical Center.
She said she was happy to have a new son with her boyfriend and would nickname him “Surprise.”
Sorawal Selanon said she didn’t realize she was pregnant until the baby decided to arrive.
