The unnamed woman explained her all-consuming desire to have a baby, revealing: "I'd had five operations on my uterus, and after the last one, the doctor sat me down and told me that I would never have a child.
"He scheduled a surgery to have my uterus completely removed.
"I wanted a baby so much, so it was almost like hearing that my life was over."

Then she started craving bread and getting very tired. She thought nothing of it because of her hormone troubles in the past: "My friends would joke that I was pregnant, but it was too hurtful for me to even joke about.
"Then after three months, I felt so bad that I had to spend a day in bed, and after that my friend drove me to the pharmacy and forced me to take a pregnancy test.
"I came home and laid the test on the counter without even looking at it. I didn't want to be let down again.
"Then right before I went to bed, I finally looked, and there it was."
She added emotionally: "After all these years, I still have that test. One month before they were going to remove my uterus, I'd finally gotten pregnant."
