What to Know
In the summer of 2026, millions became obsessed with Taylor Parker after watching the explosive Netflix documentary Killer Instinct. The feature film tells the story of Parker, a woman so desperate to have a baby that she fakes a pregnancy and winds up killing Reagan Simmons-Hancock while stealing her baby from her womb.
The unborn child also died, and Parker landed on Texas’ death row for her October 2020 crimes. Nearly six years later, another mother is on many social media users’ radars for her wild pregnancy claims. Amanda Finch claimed to be 62 days past her due date with twins. She posted photos on Facebook and declared that no doctor would help her. Many believe Finch is just pretending to be pregnant and may have ulterior motives.
Finch’s story doesn’t make much sense.
Finch, who calls herself a life coach, posted on Facebook on August 30, 2026, that she was 62 days past her due date with twins. Finch shared photos of her belly and asked people to share their stories about pregnancies that went past their due date. But instead of getting positive feedback, many questioned how her story was humanly possible.
“So Are you 48 weeks pregnant with twins? I would call the local news station because this must be a record,” someone wrote.
“Here before Netflix,” another person joked.
Some took a very deep dive into Finch’s story.
True Crime Kelly posted a video about Finch, alleging that she not only has three other children, but that child protective services took custody of those kids in the past.
Kelly shared that Finch insists that her due date is correct because she knows exactly when she conceived in September 2025 and that she was initially carrying triplets but lost the third baby in utero.
Finch alleges that no hospital will help her and that when she arrived at a hospital in April with her bags packed ready to deliver, staff became concerned she was there to steal a baby.
Finch insisted her pregnancy is real.
On September 2, she posted a series of photos of her “pregnancy progression” from September 18, 2025 up until August 17, 2026. Though the photos do show a belly of different sizes, nothing definitively proves a pregnancy. Finch pleaded with followers to be kind.
“I’m mainly posting it because my kids and their friends and boyfriends and family come on my page as well, and they have been through hell and back, literally, and are still standing also, but they should not be defending me, nor should they be defending themselves!” She wrote.
Finch added that disagreeing with her and questioning life is OK, but she would not tolerate people speaking ill of her.
“It is not okay to slander, defame, conspire, be fraudulent, commit libel, discredit without just cause, be disrespectful, be downright hateful, involve others in a hate crime or speech, share personal information without consent, or act as tho you know something you know nothing about!” She wrote.
Finch has not posted about her pregnancy since.

Strangely, Finch hasn’t posted about her pregnancy in weeks. She continues to share self-help information and encourage people to use her as a touchstone for their mental health. Yet many believe she may be in crisis herself. One woman posted a very long and seemingly genuine plea for Finch to get help.
“Amanda, please understand that this is not about blaming you for what you’ve been through. This is about saving what can still be healed, what can still be protected. You deserve care. You deserve peace,” the person wrote. “You deserve someone to help you carry the things that have been hurting you. You deserve the chance to heal instead of simply surviving from one day to the next. Please stop telling yourself that you have to handle everything alone.”
What will happen to Finch remains to be seen, but as of now it seems her days of discussing her pregnancy are on pause.
