did not see that coming

Chief complaint (direct quote): "Back hurts. Oh, and it feels like my butthole is crying."

History revealed nothing. Healthy young woman, a bit on the plus size of plus size, regular periods, no lady-part complaints of any kind, no urinary tract infection symptoms, no history of trauma or back strain, really no complaints at all except the above.

Well my oh-so-lucky male intern friend gamely helped the lass undress to discover what exactly she could mean by this (expecting some kind of sore, abscess maybe?) and discovered, I kid you not, a full term just-born infant. In her pants.

She was surprised, to say the least. As was her husband. And the nurse. And the intern. And all of us.

Both baby and mom are doing fine.

Weird stuff.
