Pregnant & didn't know it?

Question

Curious. If you were pregnant and didn't know it, at how far along did you find out and what gave it away or made you want to test? How was pregnancy confirmed?

Answer 1

You are not going to believe me but my sister knows a girl that didn't even know she was pregnant till she actually went in and had the baby. She wasn't feeling good, had cramps and pains and whatever so went to the hospital and Voila! I really am not lying. She didn't put any weight on, wasn't sick, and 'm not sure about her period if she had them at all. This is the truth, I swear.

Answer 3

2.5 months. I had been told I was peri-menopausal by 2 different doctors and I'd never get pregnant. They suggested 1 last test to confirm and then a hystorectomy. I was only 34 at the time, I was devestated, hesitant, busy, dragging my feet, feeling sorry for myself, trying to find something to do with my life besides be a mommy. I was still having periods...though my periods were never ever regular up until about 2 months after the doctors' diagnosis. And then they came every 28-30 days like clock work, really odd. Left my husband in 2005, he didn't want to adopt, but wanted children, his own children. April 2006, I got my divorce finalized and was dating this guy. Then in June I didn't get my period, ok no biggy, then in July no period again. HA, oh well I guess that was it. I won't have to worry about periods anymore. Mind you I'm only 36. I'm feeling a little low. But for sh*ts and grins I pick up a PG test. After 2 years of unsuccessful fertility treatments, I know all about negative results. Seriously, never ever had one come up positive. And I imagine over a 20 year span I've taken hundreds of tests. The sucker came back positive! No way....so I waited til the next a.m. took the other test, positive. I go online, look up all the reasons for false positives. Found one, pancreatic cancer, exactly what my father died from. Went to my GP that monday, they confirmed the test was positive. I asked them about pancreatic cancer and they said it was true that it can cause false positives, but that pancreatic cancer is relatively rare in women. Still not convinced I made an appt. with my OB/GYN. Sure enough, he did the ultra sound and there was my little alien. Completely shocked. I'm 28 weeks and she's fiesty as all get out. I can't wait to meet my little miracle.

Answer 4

My sister was 36 weeks pregnant when she found out. Of course you have to understand that she weighed 305lbs at the time. She only gained 4lbs. In Jan she had to go in for a biopsy, because they were rechecking for precancerous polyps. She had to come off of her birth control for 1 week prior to going in. She went back on the birth control the same day the procedure was done. She was suppose to go back 6 months later, but her car broke down while her husband was on a 6 week business trip across the country and she didn't have another car. When he got back, she got a new car and went to the dr. It had now been 8 months. When they did an ultrasound to recheck, they found a full grown baby girl. They ran a lot of tests to make sure she was ok with my sister taking birth control for the entire pregnancy (and yes she had a period every month) and she came out perfect! I didn't believe it at first, I asked how she never felt the baby move, and apparently the placenta had attached at the front instead of at the back cushioning the baby's movement. Luckily she found out, because the night before her scheduled c-section, the placenta began to tear away from the uterine wall, and she was rushed to the hospital. They said another hour or 2 they would have both been dead! She is now 12 weeks old and BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

Answer 5

I was five and a half weeks. I felt very sick at night and had PMS for ages- I hadn't ever had regular periods anyway, so I didn't know that I was late.
My partner told me that I should take a test and it was confirmed by a second test the day after.
The doctor just took my word for it, they didn't do a test themselves, so I was convinced it wsan't real until I saw my baby on the ultrasound at 12 weeks :)

Answer 6

with my second pregnancy i was on the pill and had my period for a few months while i was pregnant so i didn't actually miss a period until i was already around 3 months. therefore, i thought i was a lot less pregnant than i was.

my first son took a while to figure out because i was really small and never got sick at all. i was on depo but missed one.

Answer 7

Infertility can be caused by a huge number of factors: hormone imbalance, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Endometriosis, Anovulatory Cycles, physical blockage, inadequate hormone production, short luteal phase, lack of lutenizing hormone, high levels or prolactin, and many others.

Poor nutrition often plays a major role, as does exposure to toxins. Age plays less of a role before menopause than was originally thought. While there are many wonderful naturally minded fertility specialists out there, in many cases it is not possible for them to test for and address any of these possible underlying issues.

Answer 8

I was six months along before I found out. I was in denial though because I was a freshmen in college and my daughter's father and i weren't together. So i found out over easter break. Now I have a happy healthy 17 month old baby and we're expecting our second in May.

Answer 9

I was 11 weeks with my first son and started getting morning sickness so i tested. With my youngest i was 10 weeks when i found out i was pregnant. I was really tired thats how i knew. Im not 9 weeks pregnant and i knew from week 5 :) only because i missed my period and tested
