#1: Woman Gives Birth to Cups Author: Janet, Location: NYPosted: Thu Aug 14, 2008 11:05 am ---- Doctors try to get a handle on the mystery.
A Mozambican woman recently gave birth to three cups in the southern province of Gaza, independent television channel Stv reported on Thursday, showing images of the crockery.
The channel said the 18-year-old woman who lives in Xai Xai, gave birth to the cups on her way to hospital after she had complained of labour pains.
Images of the three cups were shown on the television station and the woman said she was three months pregnant at the time of the “birth”.
The Mozambican association of traditional healers (Ametramo) told the station that there was nothing strange about the story.
Ametramo president Aulerio Demoraz said similar cases had occurred in other parts of the world due to witchcraft.
He said the woman needed to be treated with traditional medicines in order to exorcise the evil spirits which made her give birth to the cups.

This is the weirdest thing I've heard in a long time. I dunno what to make of it, but I suspect there is something wrong somewhere!

Well it could be worse Gwinni - I am thinking, dinner plates, knives and forks, saucepans....the mind definitely boggles. Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, 'I could do with a nice mug of tea'

I am glad to see that they are doing so well after only three months in the making. Do hope the father pitches in to help keep them filled, washed, and dried. I hate the thought of her having to take care of them on her own. rofl
