That incident is reported as true in "The Children of Henry VIII" by Alison Weir. (page 296)

"...one woman, Perotine Massey of Guernsey, was pregnant. Her baby was born as she was burning, and cast back into the flames by the executioner."

Whether than incident is actually true or not, I have no love for Mary Tudor. Or any other religious fanatic.
