No, I'm not a woman but some of my best friends are ... LOL. I had a young cousin who didn't know she was pregnant until she was well into her third term. You could write that off to inexperience (and inattentiveness of the part of her parents) but there are plenty of examples of woman being unaware of their pregancy right up until the time they went into labor. Here's an article about that:

How can you not know you're pregnant?

And here's an excerpt from the article in case you can't view the link:

Trish was training hard for an upcoming half-marathon (go Mumma!) and put her back pain down to a two-hour training session she had in preparation. Remember, this is a mum of three, she must have really had no idea to not recognise labour pain!

“I had a sore back Sunday evening. I had taken a hot shower and was dealing with it,” Staine said. “Monday morning, I woke up and had more back pain, and as the day went on it got worse. I thought I should go to the ER. I thought I ruptured a disc or pulled a muscle.”

But the supermum soldiered on, watching her hubby play a game of basketball and attending her daughter’s play. When a bath at home did nothing for the pain, her husband called an ambulance.

“I felt like I was dying. I didn’t know what was going on,” she said.

During the emergency room examination, lo and behold, a fetal heartbeat was detected and the Trish was whisked into the delivery room where she was soon to meet a gorgeous 2.9kg surprise daughter!



The truth is stranger than Grimm!! :-D
