These incredible images show a newborn holding his mum’s contraceptive coil that failed to stop her falling pregnant.
The baby boy clasps his mother’s intrauterine device in his hand at Hai Phong International Hospital in the city of Hai Phong in northern Vietnam.
In the photos, the baby boy can be seen with his eyes closed holding the yellow and (IUD).
Obstetrician Tran Viet Phuong said the device had come out when the baby was born.
The infant had it held firmly in his hands when the picture was taken.
It was previously reported the tot has been delivered with it in his hand.
Phuong told local media: “After delivery, I thought him holding the device was interesting, so I took a picture. I never thought it would receive so much attention.”
The tot’s 34-year-old mother had reportedly had the IUD inserted two years earlier.
