Mum gives birth to surprise baby on the toilet

A mum has gone viral after sharing the story about how she birthed her surprise baby on the toilet. 

Teagan Brill, who was 21-year-old a senior at Hope College in Holland, Michigan at the time, says she only realised she was pregnant a week before. She also had no idea she was in labour when her baby Owen was born. 

Teagan is now sharing her story in TIK TOK and people have lots of questions!

I need to poop!

Teagan begins by telling her story, saying, “One Monday night in February I did not feel good. Something was off.” 

The next morning she woke up and really needed to poo, so she went to the bathroom to poo, and out came her baby.

“And the rest is history,” she says. “And he’s now a year old.” 

But How?

Teagan says she had her period every month for 9 months, so she had no reason to think she was pregnant.

It wasn’t until a week before she gave birth that she realised she was expecting a baby. 

She explains that she sent a message to the baby’s dad, Mitchell Brill, saying, “I’m either fat or pregnant.”

Taking a pregnancy test, Teagan found out that she was in fact pregnant but thought she was very early on in her pregnancy. 

“He lived in colorado. I lived in Michigan…We’re either a month or three months,” she said she thought at the time. “I did not know I was nine months pregnant.”

Is Owen okay?

Because Teagan didn’t know she was pregnant, people were concerned about Owen’s health.

“He is okay,” says Teagan in a video, “I turned 21 when I was 6.5 months pregnant, not knowing and I drank and did anything a normal 21-year-old, senior in college, would do.”

She added that her baby was taken for tests right after being born and he “was totally fine”.

When I gave birth the EMT came and they asked if they could take Owen first and take Teagan later, which she agreed to. 

“They gave him all these tests and looked at him and he was totally fine. Not to say he won’t have anything later in life but any baby could.”

Did he splash in the toilet?

“He did not fully splash in the toilet no,” Teagan clarifies.

“I was going to go poop. I looked down and my hole was huge and I literally felt it and it was rock hard and I was like this is a child and I pulled him out.”

Thankfully, Teagan had already called 911 before Owen was born. 

“They came 5 minutes after I had my child in the toilet,” she said. 

“I looked down, saw him coming down, pulled him out, wrapped him in a towel and the ambulance came.”

“You’re a grandma”

When Teagan arrived at the hospital she called her mum to let her know the news. 

“Do you want the good news or the bad news first?” Teagan told 7News.

“Well, you’re a grandma, she said, adding, “I gave birth this morning.”

Teagan’s roommates called Mitchell to let him know the news. Two days later, he arrived in Michigan to meet his son.

Teagan and Mitchell moved into the basement of her parent’s house while Teagan finished school.

Now, one year later, the family lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan, going viral on social media for sharing their story.
