Although every pregnancy is different, there are general symptoms that doctors ask women of childbearing age to look for.
Some of these include missed periods, morning sickness, weight gain, and of course, a growing belly! However, as some women can attest, not all these symptoms appear early — for a select few, they never do!
Amanda Francis thought it would be impossible to not know that she was pregnant. As she recently discovered, though, the body can hide quite a few secrets. During her unknown pregnancy, she did all the things she normally did. She even drank and fell down a flight of stairs! Francis had no idea that there was a baby on its way.
When she started feeling ill, she thought she had a stomach flu that had been going around at work. Then, when she was finally able to go to the doctor, she was stunned when they told her that she was two months pregnant!
The next day, severe stomach cramps had her rushing to the emergency room. There, an ultrasound revealed that doctors had been wrong: Francis was actually eight months pregnant and about to go into labor!
Her son, Kellen, was born a month premature. Fortunately, after 20 days in the NICU, he was declared to be a healthy baby.
