It said her pains stopped after a few days and the baby stopped moving. I'm guessing it would have been born alive.

The baby was probably fine back then, but the question is, would the surgeons have been able to take the baby out and keep mom and baby alive?

the bigger problem would have been the placenta, which would have attached itself to her abdomenal organs. the baby probably would have been fine. mom might have been fine if they didn't have to take her organs apart to get the placenta out. this was 1955, not sure how sophisticated OB was back then in morocco.

dumb question here - if she had agreed to the c-section could she have had a live baby?

if she had paid attention to the fact that pregnancy is 40 weeks & not 40 years, she might have had a chance at it. she sounds like a very unaware person to me. I'm assuming in most countries they know something about having babies?

I am assuming she was aware but there was that bit about her thinking that the baby could stay inside her and protect her?

In order for HER to survive, her body turned the baby into a stone calcified mass, essentially a mummy. So this is not longer a baby. Read the article, it’s not that long.

If you're talking to me - I did read the article and it sounds like others understood what I meant.

It says in the article that she went into labor and then ran away. Naturally a womans body pushes the baby out no matter if you push or not. Something doesn't click one bit.

It also says that it was ectopic and it popped out of the tube and attached itself to the abdominal wall, maybe thats why it didn't push itself out on its own. weird story.

The baby wasn't in the uterus, but the abdominal cavity. Can't push it out from there.

So what was contracting while she was in "labor"?
