Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

This is totally unreal.

This is my third time around, and I cannot imagine not knowing I was pregnant.....

Do you ladies think this is for real? There are some people on this show that I'm kind of like "Hmmmmm" about.

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

I wonder sometimes also, really, had did they not know?

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

Umm, I think it's called denial. I'm watching - I really don't buy it.

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

Its actually scaring me :( How did she not know??

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

the women at the fast food place had to know!!!! I definitely think she was in denial!

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

I saw this, the woman with the blood clotting issues who went from 99 lbs to 110 lbs, I believed her.

The one who had had 3 kids already-I just don't understand that one at all.

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

I have a friend who didn't know until she was 4-5 months. She had irregular periods and always had stomach issues. She thought she was just sick. She didn't gain any weight, wasn't really showing.

She finally went to the doctor to find out she was pregnant! She is due in July.

So while I have a hard time believing it is possible, I guess it is.

One of the dad posters on here was a suprise until like 2-3 days before. I think it was Don.

It's my 3rd time around as well and I saw this last night. I was laughing and saying "come on" the whole time. If I gained 40 pounds and had off periods , I would have been to a doctor. As for the woman that went to the hopital and was sent home, maybe not at the time but don't hospitals usually give you a pregnancy test as a precaution with those symptoms. Also, how to you wake up from a deep sleep and have a baby in the bathroom within 5 minutes. NO way.

I just wanted to add that for the first 4-5 months I can see that you might be confused or not know. But, 37 weeks pregnant and you had a kid before, it just seems strange to me.

I watched it last night too. I just can't believe that women on the pill don't know that antibiotics and some other medications can cause the pill to be ineffective. It was the first thing that my Dr told me and really the only thing that I remembered. I'm trying to figure out if it's the Drs not telling the patients this crucial information or the patients not being smart enough to retain something so important

Anyway, I feel like a deer caught in headlights watching it. Even when it gets really dumb, I just can't stop watching it

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

I saw this show and could not believe a woman could actually not know she was pregnant. It doesn't seem possible to me.

Re: Anyone watching "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"??

I know of two people this happened to.

One of my best friends was really sick for a few months and was going to a Dr. for liver testing because they thought that was what was wrong...she had been sick for 3/4 months...after a bunch of other tests came back negative, he ran a PG test and it came back positive. She had been so sick she hadn't kept track of her periods. She was around 12 weeks when she found out - and it's her third child.

Another was on BC pills and kept going to the Dr. for stomach pain/cramps...she kept getting her period though so they never did a PG test...she was also still taking BC pills.
They did a sono on her stomach to see if they could find anything and found a baby!! She was around 5 months when she found out!

So, it does happen - not common, but it does happen.
