Embarrassing morning at work

Dave was about to operate on a woman, who had a genuinely huge hernia from previous caesarean section. That morning she was complaining about ‘snakes travelling in her tummy’. There was a discussion about whether this was just fear or intestinal colic from adhesions. Then it dawned that she was actually about to give birth. We bundled her in a car to the local maternity hospital, where she gave birth by caesarean section an hour later, her first live born child after 6 still births. She says that she didn’t know that she was pregnant!
