The 50-year-old, who also has two grandkids, got the surprise of her life in October when shelearned she was 26 weeks pregnant, despite two different doctors telling her a year earlier that she was in menopause.
“Everyone was in shock,”Michele told theNaples Daily News.
“Definitely in shock,” Jerry added. “It does make me feel young, though.”
Michele said she felt like the women onthe former TLC showI Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant.
“I used to call bull on that until it happened to me,” she said.

Her OB-GYN, Dr. Thomas Beckett, said that Michele was the oldest pregnant patient he’s had in his 30 years of practicing medicine.
He said thatthe chance of it happeningwas incredibly slim. “She just released the one egg that did it.”
Thankfully, the last two months of pregnancy went well, other than the odd looks Michele would get when she walked around town.
“A lot of older people would look at me and do a double take because they were probably trying to figure out if I was as old as they thought I was,” she said.

“It goes through your mind that something can go wrong,” Michele said.
“I’m 100 percent sure I’m not having any more kids,” she said, adding, “He’s a blessing.”
