Flesh-Eating Mother, Blood-Sucking Infant
written by Claude Sonnet
In 1770, a story about a pregnant woman of Waterbury was so sensational, so unbelieveable, and so tenerbrous that it found it's way into the annals of the infamous New York Times - whose model includes "All the News That's Fit to Print."
In a disturbing report from the quiet Farmington village of Waterbury, a local woman's pregnancy has taken an unsettling turn, leaving the community - in fact the world - in disbelief. Sources close to the family report that during her fourth month of pregnancy, the woman developed an intense, inexplicable craving for human flesh – specifically, that of her husband's arms.
While her husband initially attempted to humor her bizarre request, allowing her to nibble at his skin; eventually, he allowed her to bare her would-be fangs down hard enough to draw both blood and tiny bits of man-flesh. Her teeth, however, were thankfully not sharp enough and her jaw not strong enough to cause serious harm. However, the woman's unsettling desire persisted throughout her pregnancy, causing great concern among family members and medical professionals alike.
The situation took an even more alarming turn following the birth of their child three weeks later. The newborn, a seemingly healthy baby girl, refused to nurse or accept any traditional infant sustenance - the baby just wouldn't take a tit. In a desperate attempt to feed the child, the parents offered finely chopped raw foul mixed with the bird's blood – a concoction that the infant eagerly and instinctively consumed to her great satisfaction.
Reportedly, a local pediatrician commented, "While unusual cravings during pregnancy are common, this case is unprecedented. We're closely monitoring the child's health and development."
The infant has reportedly continued to thrive on this unconventional diet, only months later beginning to accept small amounts of milk mixed with blood. Health officials kept a close eye on the family, as they worked to gradually transition the child to a more conventional diet.
This extraordinary case has left medical experts baffled, sparking discussions about rare nutritional disorders and the potential long-term effects of such an unusual start to life. As the story continued to unfold, the Waterbury community remained captivated by this real-life medical mystery.
