I had a baby with MY DAUGHTER !

Veronica had her 12th bub and first grandchild two months apart Veronica Merritt, 37

Lying in bed asleep one night, I heard a voice whisper to me, You're pregnant." Waking up with a start, I told myself it was just a dream.

There's no way I'm pregnant again, I thought.

Aged 36, I already had 11 kids - Victoria, then 21, Andrew, 17, Adam, 15, Mara, 14, Dash, 12, Darla, 11, Marvelous, eight, Martalya, six, Amelia, five, Delilah, three, and Donovan, two.

And I'd just broken up with my partner, but we were still on good terms.

 

Days later, my youngest, Donovan, was playing with my phone when he accidentally typed out HCG - the hormone you produce when you're pregnant - on my internet browser.

Are these signs I should get pregnant? I wondered.

So I asked my ex if he would be willing to try for a baby - a bit like being a sperm donor.

He agreed. And just two weeks later, a test revealed I was pregnant! I'd been just 14 when I had Victoria, but I'd absolutely adored being a mum to her and all my kids.

More than just a daughter,

Victoria is also my best friend. And I loved having her live with me.

When I told her the news, she was surprised but soon came round to the idea.

A few weeks later, I was in my bedroom when Victoria came in, looking utterly shocked.

Looking at her, I realised her trembling hands were clutching a pregnancy test.

'Oh my God, I'm going to be a grandma!' I cried.

I hugged my girl, who was too stunned to speak.

'We're going to have a baby at the same time! This is incredible,' I grinned.

After the news sank in, Victoria and her boyfriend went for their first scan.
