Woman unexpectedly gives birth at Golden Corral in Arkansas, names baby after restaurant
In an astonishing turn of events, a visit to a Golden Corral restaurant in North Little Rock, Arkansas, ended with an unexpected addition to one family. Tayvia Woodfork, a 26-year-old woman from Mississippi, was enjoying a meal with her family when she suddenly experienced stomach pains. To her shock, she was actually in active labor at 37 weeks.
Tayvia's surprise pregnancy was a result of what is known as a "cryptic pregnancy," where a person is unaware of their pregnancy until they go into labor, as explained by the Cleveland Clinic. Despite the unexpected circumstances, Tayvia delivered a healthy baby boy, weighing 6 pounds.
In a heartfelt tribute to the unique circumstances of the birth, Tayvia decided to name her baby boy Tamaar Kylon Corral Woodfork, incorporating the name of the restaurant where he made his grand entrance. The North Little Rock Golden Corral shared the exciting news on their Facebook page, expressing their joy and welcoming both mother and son into the "Golden Corral family."
The restaurant staff also showered Tayvia with gifts and a $200 gift card as promised, ensuring that she and baby Tamaar will be well taken care of. The heartwarming story didn't go unnoticed by Golden Corral's nationwide team, who shared Tayvia's photos across their platforms.
Expressing their honor and joy, a spokesperson for Golden Corral stated that while they were taken aback by the unexpected birth at their restaurant, they are genuinely grateful to have played a significant role in Tamaar's life. The spokesperson also conveyed their heartfelt wishes for Tamaar's health, Tayvia's speedy recovery, and the hope to celebrate countless milestones with Tamaar and his loved ones at Golden Corral in the years to come.
This unexpected and joyous birth has certainly left a lasting impression on everyone involved, uniting Golden Corral and the Woodfork family with a unique bond that will be cherished for years to come.
