4. No way
ameer abu kareem ,   Tulkarm   (06.29.09)
I don't believe she is not familiar with the rules of the monthly Period. Didn't she notice the interruption from the 1st month of pregnancy?!!!.

Ask Mitchel, Obamas side kick, to add this to his baby count.
6. And she didn't feel it kicking?

I'm sorry, doesn't matter how fat you are - any woman who knows her body can feel a change when she's pregnant. I wish them all health and happieness/
7. congratulations, I think
Lisa   (06.29.09)
is this for real? I am happy for the parents- but seriously- how could the woman possibly NOT know there was something different.? I guess it is a miracle? Don't know what they are going to tell the kid-
8. #4 - I know women who spotted all the way through...
Dorothy Friend ,   Tel Aviv   (06.29.09)
.. or who got preg during a year without a period. But no other sign? No nausea? No need to run to the loo all the time? No kicks? And this is a woman who wanted a baby, so it isn't as if she was a thirteen year old playing denial games. All the women I know who wanted babies were urinating on sticks constantly!

Mazel Tov--to all the doubters, there is a TV show in the US that shows other women who did n't know they were pregnant. How she couldn't know--I don't know--but it seems to me nothing is gained by calling her a liar. Wish her the best and move on. There are too many important things to worry about.
10. its a very big lie
li ,   israel   (06.29.09)
i dont buy this bullsh**t, how could this happen, what abuot her period? come on people do not publish this rubbish
11. Surprise Pregnancy
NYC Girl   (06.29.09)
Actually, these pregnancies, although certainly rare, happen more often than one might think. Of course, it's far more common in women who are significantly overweight, but the other problem is that not all women stop their periods as soon as they become pregnant, and a woman with normally irregular periods can be pretty far along in the pregnancy without realizing it. Then, add to that the fact that some babies aren't very active, and even when there is some activity it's easy to attribute it to something more mundane when you have no idea you're pregnant in the first place. In fact, there have been a few cases where the woman was completely unaware of the pregnancy until she went to the bathroom and a live baby dropped out into the toilet bowl...hardly any worse for the experience, which goes to show that even newborn babies can be very resilient.

17. Shrek and Fiona got a new baby.
ghostq   (06.30.09)
where r the other babies, probably on the way. good luck for next time.
18. My sister-in-law ALSO had a baby
orli ,   Jerusalem   (06.30.09)
and didn't know that she was pregnant. Yes, it really DOES happen, and, although it is rare, I think it's 'crazier' to be so nasty to people who have just been blessed with a surprise baby! brachot!
19. sha made history for the shortest pregnancy of all time
zionist forever   (06.30.09)
On Monday she finds out she is pregnant and on Saturday she has a baby. Thats got to be one for the history books.
