A 30-year-old English woman was at a friend’s costume party when she unexpectedly gave birth. But, she had no idea she was pregnant, BBC News reported Tuesday.

Friends say Ally Ashwell was enjoying the party in her bumblebee costume when she began to feel sick. Partygoers determined she was in labor, with contractions coming so fast that she had to give birth at the event.

Ashwell’s baby, Owen, was born prematurely at 26 weeks, but doctors at the hospital mom and baby were taken to are optimistic about his future.
