Most expecting parents take those nine months of pregnancy to prep for their upcoming arrival. However, the couple in this story had all of 10 minutes before their lives were changed forever by their unexpected bundle of joy.
The 23-year-old is represented by Neon Models and has over 11,000 followers on Instagram.
The couple recently celebrated their two-year anniversary. Congrats!
The two recently became parents, even though they had no idea that Erin was even pregnant, let alone on the verge of giving birth.
After about 10 minutes, Dan heard Erin scream and went to help her. He wasn't prepared for what he saw.
"I heard a scream and I ran in there and then I saw the little one and I thought, hang on there's two," he said in an interview with 7NEWS.
With some coaching from emergency personnel over the phone, they were able to get the newborn girl breathing in time.
Despite her unexpected arrival, their daughter, Isla, is perfectly healthy and everyone is doing great.
"I wasn't showing obviously because I fit into everything. It's just really bizarre," Erin said in an interview.
In this photo, she's about six months pregnant, but she didn't gain any weight during the pregnancy.
In these photos taken just a few weeks before she gave birth, Erin has no noticiable baby bump or any other physical symptoms of pregnancy.
This family's unique birth story has certainly captured the world's attention.
It's estimated that 1 in 2500 women don't realize they are pregnant until they're in labor. The phenomenon is known as a "cryptic" or "stealth" pregnancy.
"I'm still in shock, but you just adjust and this is our life now. We wouldn't change it," Erin said in an interview with a local news outlet.
Every baby and birth story is unique, but it would be hard to top the drama of this one!
