TV Show: I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant

Seeing as I'm not working at the moment, I've had a chance to sleep in and indulge in some TV time. The past two mornings I've caught the show I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant on TLC. Now, I've seen the show before but, like most people, I didn't understand how a woman couldn't know she was pregnant. I kind of do now.

Besides the ER visit for the horrible pains I was experiencing right before Christmas, I don't think I'd be able to tell that I was pregnant at this point in time. I'm about 20, maybe 21, weeks along tomorrow. I had no morning sickness, I've had no weird cravings, I've always been irregular (sometime months at a time), I've only gained about 1 pound, I haven't felt the baby "flutter" around in there, and I'm not showing. I just feel like I've had a big meal most of the time. Yes, my pants are a little more snug than normal, but I've always battled with my weight so that wouldn't have surprised me. The main symptom I had early on was that I was exhausted all the time. I would have passed that off as going to bed too late and waking up too early, which I usually tend to do. I will say that I've been eating more sweets than normal, but with the sweet tooth Anthony has, I probably wouldn't have thought anything of it. So, as of right now, I could see how a woman might not know she was pregnant. I would have been able to provide a reasonable excuse for the few symptoms I did have.

We'll see how things progress in the future. Hopefully this "I just feel fat" feeling will go away soon and I'll be able to feel Little C moving around!

In the words of my wise husband "You're not faaaat" (he says in a whiny voice!) haha :)
