One of my sisters friends had a baby last night and we didn't even know that she was pregnant. She found out last month and she hadn't talked to my sister much in the past couple months but anyway. I just don't understand how she didn't know she was pregnant until 8 months along?

Honestly, I really have a hard time believing in this, as well. I look at how I've felt with both of mine and even if you have no morning sickness, etc, how do you explain all of that fetal movement????
OMG! There are times when those babies can really go to town in there...and if that happened to me and I didn't know I was pregnant, I would really be freaking out and headed to the doc's office.
So..there you. I just don't buy into it...unless someone is in serious denial and TRULY believe they really can't be. Your mind can do funny things to you in certain situations.

I read a story about a woman who didn't know she was pregnant until she gave birth in a parenting mag. She had previous health issues which caused nausea, fluctuating weight gain, severe back pain, etc. She also had terribly irregular and light periods. So she just thought her health problems were acting up again. They took her to the ER because she was in horrible pain in her back and she thought she had another herniated disc and they found out she was in labor instead. That's gotta be pretty shocking don't you think?

Some people don't want to be pregnant, they want to believe so bad that it will go away if they ignore being pregnant. Just a suggestion. Usually people feel the babt move by atleast 6-7 months,.

Willful blindness.
Denial.
Self delusion.
Utter and complete ignorance.
Utter and complete lack of intelligence.
Honestly, I'm not trying to be snide. Most of the time, it isn't a question of ignorance or intelligence, but I'm sure that happens too. Just nowhere near as often as willful blindness.

People are dumb.
I am guessing it's the same people who voted for George Bush.........
They say if your over 300 pounds sometimes it hard to tell cause you don't get your period all the time or you soo heavy you don't notice the extra pounds.

It sounds like she had a very strong case of denial.
