So didn't know I was PREGO!

I watched one of the most hilarious 'I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant' episodes ever this week. The stupid unsuspecting mother was a known hypochondriac so NO ONE took her seriously when she was in super-mega-labor pain. She woke up her mom, and her mom was all grumpy and what not and wouldn't help her, and then her sister was all "whatevs, you've got issues", so the desperate chick calls 911. Then her mom was all, "Double-you-tee-eff you dramatic biotch, chill the frick out you're just starting your period!" But then she pooped out a baby so they knew she was totally legit.

It SO reminded me of my family.


I can't NOT watch this show when it comes on. It's like those old school bug zapper lights, and I'm a mosquito. I KNOW that it's just going to zap away time from my life that I will never get back, but yet I find myself drawn to it anyway. They're basically all the same, yet split up into two groups. The fat chicks, and the skinny chicks. The fat chicks are fat, so they don't really notice that they're getting fatter. The skinny chicks are all, "maybe it's a beer gut", or "maybe I went overboard at the all-you-can-eat fajita bar".



To be honest, I don't understand how someone who is mentally capable of eating, drinking, breathing, and having sex can NOT know that they're pregnant. In the beginning maybe, you puke, it's the flue, you have super-human sense of smell, well I don't really know what else causes that besides pregnancy, but you get the drift. Even the first movements you can chalk up to that burrito causing some killer gas. But then you hit that mark where you're not just FEELING that little fetus move, you're SEEING it. You're totally Ripley from Aliens, seeing this parasite morph and distort your once beautiful tummy-tum into some funkadelic shapes. How do you not notice that?

And then there's the killer. "I thought I had to have a bowel movement, so I pushed with all my might when suddenly I felt a POP and heard a cry!"

Is pooping out of your vagina a normal thing for some people? How could you possibly confuse something exiting your vulva, as something exiting your anus?

I just don't get it.

{Now I'm totally freaking out that the next time I poop I'm going to deliver a baby, and then all of the IDKIWP ladies are gonna jump my ass and throw things at me and say, "SEE?!?! WHAT NOW YOU DIRTY PIRATE HOOKER?!"}

Hahaha! I have questions about these women too. What are your poops normally like? Cause mine aren't anything akin to a baby crowning.
And if you didn't suspect pregnancy, why didn't you suspect terminal illness? Pregnancy saps your energy. How do you not notice this?
I even gained wait in my nose. How on earth are you missing these cues?
Talk about needing to get to know your body!

I was watching this the other day and my husband strolled in. He was actually laughing and yelling at the TV. Because he knows what being pregnant feels like and all. I just let him do it and laughed along with him.

My favorite one, also from last weekend, was the chick who pooped her baby into the toilet and walked back to her hospital bed (without knowing there was a baby in the toilet) and continued to have the second baby.

WTF??

Thanks for making me scared to go to the bathroom girl.... Just wonderful!

I had a babysitter who up and quit after I had made six months worth of plans for her because she was having a surprise baby! Yeah, right...

I am right there with you! I am pretty petite so there is no question when I am even a little pregnant so I can understand when an overweight woman doesn't know until maybe the 6th month at the very most and the baby doesn't move much, but C'mon... like you said when they are kicking you in the ribs or you feel like they are punching your bladder and you have to pee every 5 mins, I would definitely be thinking I was dying! Most of the time I think they may have found out they were pregnant really late and run with the story! Because it's just too unbelievable!!

I love that show. It makes me feel smart LOL

Sometimes it's believable though- like the one where the woman was over 300+ lbs, and she went to the doctor because she was having issues breathing and retaining a lot of water- and they found out she was in heart failure because of the pregnancy and she had to deliver ASAP. She had a section right away and had only been like 6 months along or so.

Most times though, I find it so hard to believe.

I've seen that show. I would say that there are a few episodes that are believable. But others are just crazy. hilarious Post:)

How would you explain away when a baby has hiccups? My whole belly would lurch -- my co-workers could see it across the room...
