The lady didn't know she was pregnant

That same thing happened to my cousin. She was pregnant and had no idea. She had her monthly cycle like normal and when she went to the doctor for a check up they did not even notice. She was home alone one night and felt that she had to go to the bathroom and when she did she went to wipe and there was a head so it does happen not very often but it does happen. Some times women think that they know their bodies so well and they continue to have their cycle it can be that you would not know your pregnant and some times gas can make your stomach move and jump like a baby so I can see how they would not know till they were in labor. Crazy but real. LOL. When I asked my cousin about it she said to me that she did not know she was pregnant due to the fact that her doctor was an idiot and told her that it was just gas that was causing her stomach to jump around he never even checked to see what it would be. So sometimes its not just the woman that misses it its the doctor too.

Oh, that's really surprising. She got pregnant without her knowledge? Having 9 months without menstruation means something was wrong with her. I hope she saw a doctor so that she had found out about it earlier. Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.

I know what show you are talking about and I have seen it a few times. To me I was amazed that the women had NO clue they were pregnant! In both of my pregnancies (I have 2 daughters) I knew as my belly got big, I was urinating a lot more, back pain, swelling, nausea, etc. I guess in some women it can happen where the symptoms don't show up at all!

I have heard stories about this. One young woman drowned her child in the toilet, pleaded insanity and got off. She was a student who said she continued to have periods and was not aware of her condition. I guess pregnancy does not reveal itself in every woman in the same way. I would imagine that such a surprise could make a woman do just about anything. Hopefully, it would not involve hurting the child.

I wondered about that too. Wouldn't you notice your belly growing if you were pregnant? I just don't get it.

I've heard something like this in the hospital in our place where my aunt is working. But it was the parents who doesn't know that their daughter who was living with them was pregnant and in labor pains. They thought it was just a normal abdominal pain. The girl was chubby then and when they arrived in the Emergency Room with the complain of abdominal pains. After some other examinations done the cause of the pain wasn't traced and lastly the doctor do the "IE" (Internal Exam) for pregnant women the doctor found out that "its crowning" 10 cm cervix dilated and head of the baby was already there. To the parent's surprise their daughter was rushed to the delivery room.

Hello maxim. Well the truth is this having a baby and not knowing your pregnant happens a lot more than we think. it happens to about 1 in 600 and it's not just American women. This article is in a U.K. paper and discusses three women that had babies and didn't know they were expecting. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1281456/How-woman-know-pregnant-gave-birth-A-new-study-suggests-common-think.html One even had twins. Some women don't gain much weight. I knew a lady that didn't show at all and I had a cousin that didn't show either. Not everyone goes through the same symptoms. Some people apparently don't have any symptoms. Me,I showed the minute I got pregnant. Didn't have much in the way of morning sickness or other signs except the lack of period and that baby bump.

I love that - American ladies. They aren't actually all American ladies on that show. In short, they are dumb.

I've seen that show, it seems a little odd to me that a woman wouldn't know if she was pregnant or not. It doesn't sound like she's in tune with her body at all. I like documentaries because I learn much more than I would if I had to research the topic. My favorites are about history, they give more information than what I learned in school.

I think this situation would be one of my worst nightmares - not knowing I was pregnant until actually going into LABOUR!!! My school friend, when her mum was pregnant with her younger brother, she also didn't know she was pregnant until she went into labour - quite a scary thought especially if it was your first child! Lol

how come she didn't she was pregnant?? did she not feel the baby moving inside? Well, i like watching documentaries too in Discovery channel and Natgeo, i get to learn more from those channels.

I wonder the same thing. I can't imagine first of all that there are so many females out there who are pregnant and don't know it, that they could actually have a TV show about this. I know I knew right away when I was pregnant for both my babies. Its just so strange that so many people experience this. I remembe years ago when my cousin came over and when she left I told my mom so-and so looks pregnant. My mom had said her sister didn't say anything about it. So I left it alone though I assisted she was pregnant. Two days later her mom is calling my mom to say her daughter is in labor. No one seemed to know it. I'm still not sure if my cousin played it off that she didn't know or she did and was lying to her mom. Crazy stuff though going through eight or nine months and not know you are pregnant.

It absolutely can happen that they don't know. Some people barely grow at all, or if they are already big to begin with they might not notice the extra weight being put on. Some people already have conditions where they have certain symptoms of pregnancy. Urinating a lot all the time, lower back pain, muscle spasms feel like the baby kicking in your belly, some people still have their period as normal. There are plenty of the same things that are other conditions as well... It doesn't surprise me that some people really don't know. I do watch that show from time to time, I like it...

Oh yeah it is possible at times that the lady is not able to make out that she is pregnant. Some ladies when pregnant, do not gain much and their belly also is small, especially girls who are skinny. My neighbor was pregnant and no one could make out. Also in rare cases the girl has her menses also as normal. this is very rare. So, I can imagine the the lady not knowing she was pregnant. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

I have heard of this, and even knew someone who says she didn't know until she had the baby. I can't understand how you could not know. First of all you would have to be really fat, not to notice the weight gain. How could you explain not having your period for 9 months. Usually when I hear this, I really don't believe it.

that is more of a shock anyway and i am really surprised to hear about that,its kind of crazy ,she must have known and trying to hide!

Oh..That's a surprising news.I am only 19.I don't know anything about pregnancy.But I wonder that how it can be real?? Is it a real news?? Really tough to believe..In my view the mother will know that at the first month..Then how it is possible?? Any way..Horrible news..Nice to share that..thank you..

Really? I thought it was impossible not to know that a woman was pregnant knowing the fact that pregnancy experiences symptoms. :)

I just love watching documentaries. I love learning about realities in life. Sometimes we need to see reality to open our mind not just dwell on the ideals. we need to know how to balance the two. I'm not sure why some ladies are not aware of their pregnancies. They may have been denying the possibility or just not entertaining the thought until the time comes that they can confirm it.
