After learning she was pregnant in 2013, the 23-year-old woman from rural Victoria in Australia asked her GP for a termination. Despite undergoing a procedure, the woman was eventually deemed still pregnant and gave birth to her son, "Cooper" in April the following year, according to the Daily Telegraph. A month later, she returned to her GP with complaints of tenderness and a prickly sensation in her lower abdomen. When she returned to her GP three days later, telling them she was still "feeling a bit sick", results from her blood test showed elevated levels of a hormone produced by an embryo. The woman is now suing the GP and hospital to pay for the costs of raising a child, an amount which, while undisclosed would amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
