During pregnancy, the expectant parents often imagine how life with a little one becomes. At first, maybe thoughts are about whether it is a boy or a girl? Following is often lists with names, preparation of baby room and a wealth of shopping and preparation.

Today, you can get the baby’s gender to know in advance, which many future parents use.

So did Madelisha Hiscock and her husband. However, the couple from South Africa had a somewhat special experience throughout pregnancy.

It writes Newsner.

At the first scan, the couple was told that they were expecting a little girl. In the following scans, it was also confirmed that the child in Madelisha’s stomach was a girl. Already, the couple had a daughter of three years, and now they looked forward to giving her a little sister.

Also the name for the little sister was already decided she should be called McKenzi.

But suddenly during the fourth scan, the couple got a surprise. Now the message from the doctors sounded like there was no little girl – but instead a little boy in his stomach. It surprised the couple, but certainly didn’t make them bored. Now, instead, they were looking forward to welcoming their little son to the world.

Shocking message from the doctors

« It felt like our child’s gender changed every other minute, but I didn’t expect it to be a problem after birth, » Madelisha tells of the course of pregnancy.

However, it turned out that parents were expecting a huge surprise.

Kenneth came to the world and the new -born parent couple of two were proud and let Kenneth greet family and friends.

A few weeks after birth, the couple had to be checked in the hospital with Kenneth. And it went far from as they expected.

In the hospital, the doctors were able to announce that they were not parents of a little son – but a little daughter. It showed a number of studies that also clarified why the parents had initially been told that they had had a son.

Their little daughter was born with a very rare syndrome. A second and the cah called CAH, which hits about 1 out of every 10,000 child.

This means briefly explained that there is a lack of an enzyn in the adrenal glands, which is important for the body to form cortisol. Instead, testosterone is formed, which can cause the female genitals to have many similarities to the male genitalia.

Now Kenneth McKenzi

Kenneth, therefore, instead became McKenzie, who at the beginning of pregnancy had planned to baptize their little daughter. At the same time, she was put into treatment for the lack of hormone.

The confused parent couple states that the most important thing is that their daughter is doing well.

« It’s been some tumultuous months, but the most important thing is that McKenzi is healthy and is well, » says the newly born mother to two.
