Teen Gives Birth Without Knowing She’s Pregnant
A Detroit teen, 16-year-old Peyton Peoples, had the kind of surprise nobody saw coming—she went into labor at home without even knowing she was pregnant. Alone in the house while her mom, Kira Peoples, visited a family member, Peyton suddenly went into labor. After just three pushes in the bathroom, she delivered her baby boy, Paxton, right there in the toilet. In a panic, Peyton cleaned him off, learned from TikTok how to cut the umbilical cord, and wiped him down again before realizing the gravity of what had just happened.
Peyton Shares Truth After Detroit Police Step In
Terrified and unsure how her mom would react, Peyton initially told her that the baby had been left on their porch by a stranger. Her mom, shocked and confused, even posted the story online, which quickly spread and caught the attention of local authorities. Detroit police, suspicious of the claim, took Peyton to Children’s Hospital to rule out the possibility that she was the mother. Eventually, Peyton admitted the truth: Paxton was hers all along. She explained, “It’s hard. It was already hard for her to raise us, and that just added another burden on her back, and I didn’t want to do that.”
Mom Rises To Challenge After Teen’s Birth
Kira, a single mom already raising four kids while facing financial struggles, said, “The baby is always a blessing. It was just that my baby went through this by herself.” Just seven months earlier, Peyton’s father was tragically killed in a robbery, making this sudden responsibility even heavier. Kira shared that she’s determined to keep pushing forward, working midnights while Peyton returns to school. A GoFundMe has been set up to help the mother and daughter navigate this unexpected journey.
