I have a seventeen year old daughter that gave birth to a 7lb 9oz baby and she had no sypmtoms of being pregnant. We were on vacation in Yosemite Nationtional Park when she became suddenly ill after rock climbing and rapelling one afternoon. I took her to the clinic in the park and her diagnosis was dehydration or a posable kidney infection. After over twenty four hours of severe back pain her father and I drove her to the nearest hospital where we were told that she was in labor and would deliver a 38 week fetus within the next few hours. What a shock!! But we know have a beautiful and haelthy 13 month old grand daughter. I could not believe that a woman could not know that she was carring a child but believe me it does happen. Sincerely, Mother of two in Ohio

I am just so glad to know that I am not alone in my incredulous reaction to the ignorance and sensationalism reflected in this show. Moreover, the frequency of positive feedback reflected via Google speaks volumes about both the average viewer and the state of popular culture.

Oh lord, I’ve seen this. They also have one for “Oh crap! Twins?!”

Alas, my mother is in this group. But I wholeheartedly assure you that we are a very normal, very sane, and very SOBER family:) She was always irregular with her cycles and when she began to gain weight (a total of 12 lbs for the entire pregnancy) they blamed a newly started regimen for her MS (ACTH). She had an inkling something was amiss and scheduled a doctor appointment for X day and I was born at about 34 weeks two days before X at about 4 lbs.

All is fine, I wasn’t fed to the dogs, nor did I have to “detox.” Having caught glimpses of this show, I would hate to be grouped into “those families must be crazy; those kids must turn out to be serial killers.”

Quite the contrary, my mother states that people in her family “just don’t feel pregnant” so I became a serial “pee-on-a-stick”er at the slightest delay of my cycle. She was right! During my pregnancy I never really did feel many symptoms–but at least I knew:)

I don’t think it’s possible without severe mental dissacociation, metal illness, mental retardation or your 12.

I was pregnant for three months before it was official – I KNEW I was preggo even though every test known to man kept coming back negative. Can’t fool a sonogram though.

You know when you’re pregnant – you just do.

That show makes me howl with laughter at the lies those women tell. Some of them do not seem very smart either so I feel sorry for them. Being mentally ill, morbid obesity or really dumb are reasons for not knowing your pregnant. Otherwise it is denial. The one story where the lady gave birth to twins in the toilter was heartbreaking. One twin died. I cant believe she was left along in a triage room in full labor with twins. I do believe with all of the freaky hormonal stuff that happens when a woman is pregnant that she could disassociate from the event. Those hormones keep us kind of stoned while pregnant and for a good reason. Maybe some women just have a lot more of it. Our hormones are still quite mysterious. No one really knows what triggers actual labor. They baby, the mother, no one really knows for sure.

I love the Biggest Loser. I want them all to win!

I once had a pregnancy scare when my oldest was 2years old, and my youngest was 5 months old. I swore I felt phantom fetal movements. I have known women who have been pregnant with twins and thought they were singletons, but never a whole pregnancy, yet.

Being aware of your own body is key. Could it be denial?
