Pregnancy Info HOME

Well I knew I was pregnant with all 5 of mine but with my 4th I was close to 5 months before I knew. I had been working out (lifting weight and on a controlled diet) of course when you alter your body with heavy weights you have no period, so i though i'm looking good, I'm naturally skinny 5'10 125lbs, then I felt kicking and sure enough i was preggers again. Good thing too, I already had 3 girls and that one was a boy! i just have to say I don't know how anyone could mistake all that moving and kicking.

I wonder sometimes if the woman doesn't have insurance and can't afford pre-natal care/hospital fees, so they say "they didn't know" to avoid the stigma that would come with not getting the proper care? I know there is aid out there, but not everyone qualifies, DH and I are paying out of pocket for our baby, it was $2500 alone for the pre-natal (+ extras), hospital will START at about $6000. SO, if you don't have the money, and can't get aid, maybe this is the only way they can come up with to have baby but not be seen as bad mothers?? Just a thought! I too can't imagine how you could not know you were pregnant, just with all the movement alone of baby!
