Two of my friends have announced pregnancies in the past month. Both are due in October and didn't know until this month. Isn't this quite terrifying?! Both have been having periods as normal.

Heidi has been to the Dr on and off since March convinced she was pregnant but testing negative on home tests and then continuously told by the Dr that she definatley wasn't pregnant until she convinced them to give her a scan this week as she felt movement and bingo, due October 31st!

Emma had no idea but had a scheduled scan to check for cysts on her ovaries as she has been experiencing stomach pains and she is due 23rd October.

They and both babies are checking out fine but it has put the fear of God in me, I mean, how could you not know! Is this more common than I thought?

lucky the one who was bothering the doctor has a healthy baby - that could be one very 'in trouble' doctor if thigns hadnt been so good.

Yes, agree with BB there!

Crikeys, two ladies 7 months gone and not even knowing it!
If I thought I had a chance of being pg this would have put the fear right thru me lol!!

Wow!

Do they have small bumps? This is my FIVE month bump...

**Sparkley Mama** · 28-08-2008, 05:44 PM

Well one of them is quite large anyway and always wears very baggy, loose clothing so I hadn't noticed at all. Heidi is bigger than usual but not in a bump way, I mean, she's lost her waist and is bigger but more in a too many beers/big lunch way. I'm still a bit shell shocked by the whole thing. Doesn't help that DH made a joke about things coming in threes - not helping!
