Zoe Williams in concealed pregnancy shock

[LadyGlencoraPalliser]

She didn't twig until she was 20 weeks apparently.
I was a bloody HEIFER by then with my second.

either that was the same episode i saw or they were all much the same. he was in a car and just saying disgusting things about her.

someone on here once posted that they'd worked in a call centre with her before atomic kitten, and said that she was very charismatic, very open about her shit childhood and very kind to other staff members. i think she's pretty damaged, the poor wee soul.

Don't know, Aitch - I only ever saw that one episode. Was extremely sad to watch. I'm no fan, but somehow I can't bring myself to dislike her. She seems too innocent, too trusting, too bloody stupid.... Like she never really learned how to grow up and have normal, adult relationships...

Certainly, her 'relationship' with Mark Croft was weird - he was the 'powerful' one, when it should have been her holding all the cards.. I just feel sorry for her - you get the feeling all she's ever wanted was someone to love her and take care of her, and instead she's facing life as a single mum of 4 young kids, with two exes - neither of whom she has good relationships with. It's not the best situation. and I'm not even sure she's 30 yet.

i've seen that jordan and peter a couple of times as well. that's another abusive relationship, imo, although not as bad. so fucked-up that there are tv programmes about them. (ultra fcked-up that i've watched them. )

I interviewed a girl recently who didn't know she was having a baby until she went into labour. She didn't have any symptoms and had no bump.

I was and forgot I was supposed to be interviewing her about baby wipes and not just dragging all the gossip out of her!

Thurston!

got to admire her for a few fags though

i like zoe and her articles,
she makes me larf

i don't. but that's another thread.

spill Aitch spill

tugs at zip pull....

lol. don't worry, Zo, you're dirty secrets are safe with me.

It's not that wierd or impossible. One of my friends didn't know she was PG till about 20 weeks (very irregular AF and history of MC) - in fact, she had booked a doctor's appointment because she thought she was unwell, then read some general magazine article about being PG and thought, oh, that's what it is.

zoe just come clean you know honesty is the best policy..we will be kind!

Leave my wife alone.

Fgs.

are you married?

how bourgeois.

i reckon i could get to 20 weeks without knowing, no problem. i don't get a bump until about 24 weeks, so if i was operating under the misapprehension that i'd had a really bad flu for the first trimester, it's perfectly possible.

when i was at university I briefly shared a flat with a woman who went for a bath, started screaming she couldn't get out, we called her an ambulance, the paramedics hauled her out and took her out to the ambulance where she gave birth to an 8lb baby boy. She had no idea apparently and neither did we. In fairness, I was 17 and had never seen a pregnant woman apart from my mother and she was a drug addict. Baby got taken into care

bar the narcolepsy and nausea i never show till late on

my dp usually notices when i snore through 12 weeks of life

not true

I was 24 weeks when I found out! Yes, really!

I'd put on a little bit of weight, there was no obvious bump, I hadn't felt any movements BUT I was still having periods! It didn't occur to me that I might be pregnant at all. Why would it - I'd always been told that periods meant you weren't pregnant!

All day sickness came and went, diagnosed by the GP as gastritis. By the time the family planning doctor - I'd gone to get more pills - examined me she could feel the little beggar! I don't know who was more shocked - her or me.

I couldn't have gone much further without realising though, my periods stopped shortly after and within about four weeks I was the size of a large detached bungalow!

This situation actually created my biggest superstition. The day before I went to the clinic I had bought some tampax ready for my next period, which of course never came. Since then I have never bought them in advance, only when I'm on. Feels too much like tempting fate!
