A Woman In Nakhon Sri Thammarat Province Claims To Have Given Birth To An Egg.

Woman delivers egg-straordinary baby
Phuket Gazette -

A woman in Nakhon Sri Thammarat province claims to have given birth to an egg.

Sopharat Phantharak, 36, from Village 5 in Mokhlan Subdistrict, has placed the miraculous object on a pedestal lined with white cloth and is inviting local villagers to come and pay their respects to it.

Mrs Sopharat, who is already a mother of four, claims that before the miraculous nativity she had a strange dream in which an angel gave her the egg, as well as the white cloth.

Now, local villagers are flocking to her house to see the miracle, with many of them prostrating themselves in front of the egg, which looks just like that of a chicken. Mrs Sopharat has also placed a silver tray next to the object for villagers to leave money and gain merit, in accordance with Thai tradition.

Police officers are investigating Mrs Sopharat to see if they can charge her with fraud.

Kitti Rattanasombat, the director of Tha Sala Hospital, told Thai national newspaper Khao Sod that “normal people don’t give birth to eggs”.

Mr Kitti added that women were usually pregnant for nine months before giving birth to a baby.

He admitted that abnormal births were possible, but insisted that giving birth to a “duck egg, chicken egg or reptile egg” was something that does not happen.

This was more likely to be due to someone making up stories to get attention, he said.

Mr Kitti said Mrs Sopharat had previously been to the hospital complaining of stomach pains and writhing intestines, and that at the end of last year she had been checked for pregnancy.

She had also been to the hospital a week earlier complaining of stomach pains, but no trace of pregnancy was found.

Superintendent Suthep Kosakul of Tha Sala Police Station said officers had examined the egg and confirmed it was a chicken egg with “nothing special” about it.

“I suspect the whole household isn’t normal,” said Col Suthep. “They say she gave birth to an egg. Whether this constitutes fraud or not, it’s too early to say.”

Khao Sod confirmed that most villagers who saw the egg did not believe it was the result of Mrs Sopharat giving birth. Some said that if the object had been a lump of flesh of some sort, they might have believed it – but not a chicken egg.

This story is eggstraordinary, the views of the doctors seemed rather scrambled, I'm af-fried to say she could be telling the truth, cracking story but I won't be shelling out lots of money for the collection box wai.gif

Wacky Easter Egg hunt - darn never thought of looking there!

Maybe she left it there last year, forgot about it - hence the tummy troubles, and then one day "plop".

Does it answer which comes first, the chicken or the egg?

Wonder if the eggs had lottery numbers on them.

When this all backfires she'll end up with egg on her face.

My bet is on this being a misshapen ping-pong ball that has been there since Ms Sopharat was last in Bangkok "working in factory"

It's not suprising that a few remain unaccounted for.

If god gives you just an egg, make an omelette. :rolleyes:

'normal people don't give birth to eggs'. No, nor do abnormal ones.

Wonder what they've named it? 'Gai' would seem the obvious choice.

"Who are you?"

"I am an angel."

"What's that in your hand."

"An egg and a white cloth. They're for you."

"Thank you angel. Are they a divine gift from god?"

"No. I am defrosting my fridge and the hanky was left at my place by a hooker."

Even those that have close encounters with stray cocks? :unsure:

Actually, it may not be a poultry egg. Could be some sort of reptile (or a platypus).

Don't joke like this. Jesus was born by a virgin.

Yes, but he wasn't an egg.

One has to feel for the siblings in this. Never able to hold their little brother ... for fear of dropping him.

It is time for the Thai education system to get a new life. I am sure there are plenty of thai who buy this ordinary Thailand story, only this time was not a fish but we never know, we have to wait for the egg to hatch...

thumbsup.gif wai2.gif Thanks you Mr. Kitti for the explanation. Awesome facts. You might want to look for the CP stamp on the egg, that could solve this mystery once and for all.

Does she propose to sit on it for a few weeks?

Great- Thailand the hub of easter (playboy) bunnies!

Thank you pedro01, I was not having a good day until I read your post, nearly wet my daks laughing, keep em comin mate !

I have lots of women giving birth to complete and utter eggs.

Nothing special at all.

Not sure it's only a Thai educational problem. Look how many westerners fell for the Arab virgin birth story.
