Who was going to tell me, two years after writing an innocent in which he explained that a woman went to a hospital with a psychological pregnancy, which ended in caesarean section, that the story was going to end up being real.
Not exactly the same, but practically, because last Friday, at the Women's Hospital of Cabo Frio, in Rio de Janeiro, a 37-year-old woman came in to give birth to her 41-week-old pregnant baby, with so much pain and in such a hurry that they ended up intervene urgently without being pregnant.
The woman arrived at the hospital with pregnancy documents. Apparently some tests had been done during the non-pregnancy, I imagine some tests but no ultrasound, of course, and who knows if I would not have also attended childbirth preparation sessions. The fact is that, when entering with the pregnant documents, they said that I was 41 weeks old, and showing severe pain, doctors did not stop to do an ultrasound, because they considered that the intervention should be done as soon as possible, more when they confirmed that there was no fetal beat.
Six professionals stayed with her. They started the intervention, but it did not become a C-section because when they arrived at the uterus they saw that it was small, so much, that there could not be a baby there. When I told her, the woman, there was no answer. He simply remained silent.
This Sunday, two days later, the woman was discharged with the diagnosis of psychological pregnancy. Apparently, according to your partner, something similar happened last year. She was pregnant, she was admitted to another hospital, but the boy was dead. Or so he thinks, because he never got to see the death certificate and, since he agrees that he was at work, it could be that the situation had been the same (and who knows if he really got to go to the hospital).
His mother, the patient's mother, confirmed that he suspected there was no pregnancy. Apparently he broke the news that he was pregnant in december of last year, and seeing that he had been a pregnant year already, he saw quite clearly that it could not be true.
The director of the Women's Hospital, meanwhile, has regretted having undergone surgery to a woman without being necessary and from the hospital they have requested psychological help for the woman, but it seems that she does not speak much.
Now we can only fear that after this case (and another that they had in which a woman carried ultrasound and clinical history of another pregnant woman, putting her name on all this, but that it was hunted in time) does not happen about Pedro and the wolf and that one day decide not to run when a woman enters with a real emergency delivery.
