A “miracle child from nowhere" born to a Stafford mother who has only half an ovary was revealed today at Stafford's maternity unit. Tiny Alfie Siviter is the baby nobody ever thought could be born. His mother Trudi Siviter, aged 39, was told by doctors 20 years ago she could never have children and, after two ectopic pregnancies, several attempts at IVF fertility treatment and the removal of all but half of one ovary, she had resigned herself to having a hysterectomy. But last July – three months before she was due to have the hysterectomy – she was “shocked, but happy", to find she was pregnant. Despite having only half an ovary left, which was itself not functioning properly, Alfie was born naturally at Staffordshire General Hospital's maternity unit eight months into the pregnancy on December 7.
Woman With Half An Ovary Gives Birth to Baby Boy
A woman with just half an ovary, who had all but given up on having a baby, has given birth to a baby boy, according to Britain's Daily Mail. Trudi Siviter, who was left with just part of her left ovary after suffering cancer of the cervix as a teen, had two ectopic pregnancies as an adult and three failed attempts at in-vitro fertilization. Doctors said what was left of her ovary was not functioning properly and believed her womb was not strong enough to carry a child. But three months before having a complete hysterectomy, the 39-year-old discovered she was pregnant. She gave birth naturally to a son at Staffordshire General Hospital in the United Kingdom on Dec. 7. Alfie was born eight months into the pregnancy and weighed just 3 pounds, 8 ounces, but doctors say he is healthy.

After months (and years) of curtailing pregnancy rumors, Nicole Kidman is finally pregnant. The actress� publicist confirmed Monday night that Nicole and her husband, country singer Keith Urban, are expecting their first child. The couple have recently been very open about their desire to have children. Last fall, Nicole told Vanity Fair that she�s �yearning for one,� while also revealing to the magazine that she suffered a miscarriage and an ectopic pregnancy during her marriage to Tom Cruise (they later adopted two children Isabella, 15, and Connor, 12). Janelle Kidman, Nic�s mother, told the Sydney Morning Herald that her daughter is expecting around the month of July. It�s likely that the actress� famous frozen face will finally start to see some movement soon since you shouldn�t get botox while you�re pregnant.
