  • This elicits a big grin from me because I do actually know one. Monday, she was feeling a bit ill. Tuesday, she was a mother. And she is one hell of a mother. Despite having the huge advantage of a whole 24 hours to prepare for her previously unknown child coming into her life, she and her boyfriend (now husband) are just brilliant in every regard. Strange things happen; humans adapt. I don't see her so much since I moved house but I was there as it unfolded and I'll never forget it.

    It really does happen.

    • How did she account for missing her period?

      • She was carrying quite a bit of extra weight and her periods were irregular at best. She did comment to me that they finally seemed to have stopped for good, but this wasn't curious enough for either of us to think she might be five month's pregnant.

        • but can't you tell when the skin is not simply fat. I swear baby bumps are usually harder or even morning sickness signs/baby kicking??

          • A baby kicking can be mistaken as gas. Also some women may never feel the baby kick even when they are kicking. I'm a thin woman and I didn't even remotely start to show until I was 8months (pregnancy is almost over with by then). So yes its very possible for someone that already has meat on their stomach to not show at all. Sometimes women really don't know that they are pregnant. It DOES happen people.
