Unplanned babies can disrupt lives and make people question their existence altogether. What if, however, nobody – even the doctors – even knew a child was on its way? That’s exactly what happened to one guy whose story will knock you out of your shoes.
“It’s apparently more common than people realize,” the 31-year-old wrote. “Basically pregnancy tests are unreliable after a certain stage.” A lot of crazy little details came together to completely ‘hide’ a baby in his girlfriend’s belly even from an ultrasound scan. Naturally, you’re preparing for the due-date throughout the whole 9 months, but when such a heavy load of information and new responsibilities hit, it’s hard to cope. Scroll down to read the incredible story in the words of the father whose life was irreversibly changed overnight, and let us know what you think of this miracle-baby in the comments below.

Even doctors are wrong sometimes, but it’s hard to believe a ‘mistake’ like this actually happened
Looks like Thor isn’t the only child in the family anymore!
Relating to the unbelievable story, people were keen to express their support

I am one of those children with a dad who just walked away. He's well off too! There's not a day that goes by that I hate him for it. It's not right and never will be. I'm good though but some people have no shame.

I wonder if this is even true. After that energy-drink-hole-in-the-head fiasco that Bored Panda posted, I take most of the things on this site with a grain of salt. Either way, wherever that baby is and however he came into the world, I hope he has parents that love him and teach him well as he grows up.

I know women can get pregnant without even knowing it (girl in my class didn't know she was pregnant untill she went into labor) and I know the pill or any other birthcontrol method isn't 100% safe but ultrasound/scan and pregnancy test not picking it, is kinda disturbing me. Me and my bf don't want kids (using birthcontrol untill "I'm old enough"(damn doctors) for sterilization...) but I have no idea what I would do if I was pregnant without knowing it/having no symptoms etc. Kids are not for me so I would probably freak out..... And to be honest I would've also understood this guy if he did not want the responsibility, seeing as this was unplanned and unexpected and he didn't want kids.

Good on you man, as a 37yr old guy who never wanted/wants children (neither does my wife) this had to be a big f****n surprise but yeah you acted like a real man mate. Love the dog pal.

I'm really glad this man is happy to be a dad and totally in love with his little boy. However, he does not deserve to be lauded for considering leaving & never returning, and then deciding to "go back and take responsibility." You don't get points for not being an a*****e. He is responsible for bringing that child into the world. Taking responsibility for the life he created does not make him a hero. People do not abandon their children every single day of the week, and no one gives them a medal for it. He SHOULD take responsibility. He's not Dad of the Year for doing what he is required to do. Also, I never believe women who say they didn't know they were pregnant until they were in labor. Come on!

Woah! Woah! Suggesting we should take responsible people for granted? Yes every parent SHOULD do and be as you say, and every parent who actually is like that IS ALSO a hero! You become the hero the moment you make the right choice. The conscious choice based on awereness, ethics and empathy.
