According to the local news outlet KETV, Stover also noticed other changes in her body including swelling of her legs and visited the doctor for these symptoms which is when she was informed that she was pregnant.
"They ran the test again she said, 'It's positive. We're going to do an ultrasound," Stover told KETV. "She looked right at the screen and said, 'You're definitely pregnant."
Stover was also told that there were several other medical conditions, her liver and kidneys were not working properly so the doctors sprung into action. She was admitted to the hospital that night, and her family and boyfriend Travis Koesters rushed to be with her.
