This girl is dumb. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb. Number one, babies suck. The only reason to have a baby is because you’re tired of playing The Sims and want to see what a real baby between you and your partner would look like, coupled with the fact that you enjoy sleepless nights and lots of fecal matter flying throughout your house. As for why you’d want to fake a baby — attention, I guess? The gifts at a baby shower suck since they’re for the baby mostly, so if she was hoping to score a sick Longchamp outta this then she would’ve been better off robbing a Macy’s.
So what exactly was this girl trying to get out of this? Presents? Attention? Love and affection from an emotionally distanced parent?
I don’t have an answer for you…in fact, no one involved does:
Just 16, Jordan was preparing for his entire life to change when his 16-year-old girlfriend from Wyandotte told him she was pregnant with triplets.
“I was excited, don’t get me wrong, but I was scared,” he says. “I started looking for jobs the best I could. I was ready to donate all my time.”
… Eventually, the family embraced the pregnancy and started preparing for the birth. As the months passed, gifts for the babies started pouring in. A church in Taylor, a nonprofit in Dearborn and a Facebook group that she joined called “Moms of Triplets” all donated to the young family. Last May, relatives even threw a baby shower for the expectant mother who had already named her three babies – Ivan, Alice and Isabella.
“She got tons of help,” says Jessica Adams, an aunt. “The gifts, they couldn’t even open at the shower there was so much.”(via)
At first everything seemed hunky-dory: the girl’s belly was getting bigger, she showed off her ultrasound photos, you know — the usual baby-poppin’ shit.
Shit didn’t hit the fan until, y’know, it was time for her to actually deliver this turd of a lie. Even when the ultrasound photos were discovered to be fake the girl still stuck to her story.
An Ohio woman in the Facebook group Moms of Triplets figured out the ultrasound pictures were fake and contacted the family. They discovered they were the same pictures from a website called FakeABaby.com.
“Down to baby A, baby B, baby C, the placements of the babies – they’re the exact same,” says Tracy Matthews, an aunt. “You can put them side by side and the only difference you’re going to see is that she used a fake doctor that doesn’t exist. She put my nephew’s name on the ultrasound, which you cannot do.”
FOX 2 was told the expectant mother lied until the very end. Last week, the day before her C-section, she claimed she lost the babies but refused to go to the doctor. That’s when Jordan’s aunt called the authorities, who are now investigating.
“So, I told the hotline she has three babies that she’s supposed to be full term with, and she won’t go to the hospital and they don’t have heartbeats.
So, they sent detectives over there and she finally cracked and told the detectives that she lost them at six weeks,” Adams says.(via)
The story the girl’s currently sticking with is that she actually lost the baby at 6 weeks, however people are questioning whether she was ever even pregnant to begin with. Some believe the family was in on it, while others believe them when they say that they’d been duped the same as everyone else.
Police are currently investigating, and the girl could be charged with a crime due to the gifts and thousands of dollars in donations she received under false pretenses.
