Elizabeth Kough, a mom of four, said she hugs her newborn son, Benjamin, "a little tighter" because of the miraculous way he came into this world.
Kough, 39, is still also in shock that has four children.
Nearly four years ago, as a mom of three, she had both of her fallopian tubes removed in a procedure known as a bilateral salpingectomy. The removal of the tubes, which allow eggs to travel from the ovaries to the uterus, is typically a nearly 100% effective form of contraception.
In addition to preventing pregnancy, removing one's fallopian tubes has also been shown in some studies to reduce the risk of certain types of ovarian cancer, an added benefit that appealed to Kough because she has a family risk of the disease.
"I also hit age 35 and they medically say at that age pregnancy told "2CNY NEWS" "I was also divorced and single and had three children, which is quite a blessing for a family but I thought that was probably enough."
