Chilean Olympic weightlifter Elizabeth Poblete has given birth to a baby boy during a training session, without having known she was pregnant._46925938_poblete_getty.jpgMs Poblete, 22, who lives in Brazil, said she had felt unwell but had had no idea she was expecting a baby.The boy was three months premature and was taken to hospital with his mother, where he remains in intensive care.The hospital in Sao Paulo denied reports it forced Ms Poblete to leave after she was unable to pay for care.Ms Poblete began to feel unwell during training on 8 December, as she was preparing to take part in a competition.Shortly after, she gave birth to a baby weighing only 1.2kg (2.25lbs) and measuring about 34cm (14 inches).Both were taken to hospital in Sao Paulo but Ms Poblete has since been discharged, reportedly telling local media she could not afford to continue receiving treatment.Ms Poblete came 12th in the 75kg women's category at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

Hope the baby's alright.Dunno how the mother could be so stupid though.
its nothing to do with being stupidshe may have missed some periods but when u do that much sport, its not unusual to have irregular periodsher stomach muscles will have been so strong that she probably couldnt even see the bump cos the muscles are holding everything in place so firmlyfurther more, she didnt kno she was pregnant so the baby probably wasnt gettin everything it needed an thats why its so small and prematuresmall miracles

tbh its not really a miracle, its basic biology, she had unprotected sex or her mode of protection failed her and she got Pregnant. thankfully she was a athlete so stuff like unhealthy eating smoking and drinking probably wouldn't bepart of her diet anyway hope the baby is alright
