Ok so there's this girl I went to school
with. I came across her myspace by chance
and in her blog she states she just found
out shes pregnant. Here's the catch,
she's 7 months along and claims she just
found out. She had no symptoms and isnt
big enough for her to think that she was
pregnant. She said it never crossed her
mind becuase she always had a wacky period
so just assumed it was gone and skipping a
few months. She says the only reason she
figured it out was becuase she thought she
looked a bit fatter than usual and is
feeling "kicks". My question is could
this be or is she full of sh*t? Shes also
almost 21 if that helps.

My husbands cousin lissa was 5 months
pregnant before she found out, and it is
her second child. She always had messed
up periods, so she didn't think anything
of it, so it's possible. The only way her
and her husband adam realized it was
because adam felt a kick.

Well i'm about 8 months along...And when I
was even 6 months pregnant, I felt the
baby kick. Like super strongly. I'd
believe maybe 5ish months, but not 7. She
must of been in denial.

When I Was 16 Posted: 07-24-06 23:57pm
I have to say yes indeed it is because
when I was 16 I was pregnant and had a
period the whole 9 months and also I
stayed tiny and never new I was pregnant
until the birth happened and that was in
1980.
I felt kicks but thought it was spasams or
something because I never got sick and
just thought I was fine because I had a
period.
I learned a lot from that and the birth
was a giant freak out when it happened
because I had know idea and wow a baby was
born :shock:
the best way for this girl to find out is
go to the doctor and take the pregancy
test.

I guess it just depends on how well you
know your body. If you're pretty in-tune
with the way your body normally functions,
you'll know when something is different.
I guess that if your body is throwing
weird signals around (unregulated periods,
etc) it makes it harder to know when
something has happened.
A friend of mine got pregnant about two
months before I did, and she didn't find
out until she was around 9 weeks along.
On the other hand, I "knew" I was pregnant
within a few days of conception, and had
two false negatives before I got my
positive test. My body felt 100%
different to me and I recognized it
immediately. And around the fifth month,
there was no mistaking the feeling of a
small stranger moving around inside. So
I guess it just varies for each woman.

I know someone who didnt know until the
baby came out that she was pregnant. She
didnt gain a great deal..Had a tiny little
pooch tummy and never really had
symptoms.She used to feel the kicks but
thought nothing of them. It does all
depend on how you are made internally to
show more or less. I have a difficult
time understanding how you do not know but
it has happened!
