A doctor was left surprised when she delivered a baby holding something \u201cinteresting\u201d in his hand \u2013 after sharing the photo, it\u2019s gone viral.<\/p>\n

\n

A woman who gave birth after her contraception \u201cfailed\u201d has shared a photo of the extra surprise her newborn arrived with.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The little boy, who was born at Hai Phong International Hospital in northern Vietnam, arrived into the world reportedly clutching his mum\u2019s\u00a0contraceptive\u00a0device in a hilarious snap that has since gone viral.<\/p>\n

While the mum has remained anonymous, the images were shared by obstetrician Tran Viet Phuong, who said she thought it was \u201cinteresting\u201d he was clasping the intra-uterine device (IUD) as he came into the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter delivery, I thought him holding the device was interesting, so I took a picture. I never thought it would receive so much attention,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\n
\"The<\/div>\n

The boy was born clutching his mother\u2019s intra-uterine device. Picture: CEN\/australscope<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The baby\u2019s 34-year-old mother said she had the coil inserted two years earlier but it clearly didn\u2019t work because she later found out she was pregnant.<\/p>\n

Dr Phuong explained the device may have been moved from its original position, becoming an ineffective form of contraception and allowing the mother to become pregnant.<\/p>\n

The baby was healthy when born, weighing 3.2kg \u2013 a third baby for the mum who already had two children, according to a report by\u00a0The Sun<\/i>.<\/p>\n

Snaps of the bub\u2019s elaborate entrance into the world have sparked a huge reaction online with many declaring it \u201chilarious\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis baby was destined to be born,\u201d one wrote on Facebook.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomeone I know had this happen to her. Her baby was born holding her coil,\u201d another said.<\/p>\n

Some people said it was \u201clucky\u201d the device did not hurt the bub.<\/p>\n

While the picture has captured public imagination, the mother has not commented on its authenticity.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not the first time a baby has been born\u00a0apparently defiantly clutching its mum\u2019s failed contraception.<\/p>\n

Back in 2017, a baby boy named Dexter arrived holding his mum\u2019s Mirena implant, which his mum shared on Facebook.<\/p>\n

\u201cMirena fail!\u201d she captioned the snap.<\/p>\n

However it was later revealed to be a staged shot taken by the new parents. The IUD was actually said to have been removed during the mother\u2019s c-section, rather than being clutched in the baby\u2019s tiny fist.<\/p>\n

There are two types of IUDs available to women to use, both of which are placed inside the uterus to prevent pregnancy, according to\u00a0Health Direct.<\/p>\n

The difference between the two which are both similar \u201cT\u201d shapes are one is made from copper acting more as a physical barrier to prevent pregnancy, while the other is made from plastic and has a slow-release hormone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
