My ex didn't find out she was pregnant with our first daughter until she was well past 6 months pregnant. She's always had abnormal periods and wasn't showing whatsoever.

My mom’s best friend thought she was entering early menopause when she didn’t get her period because she was already in her 40s and had 2 traditional pregnancies and ended up being 6-7 months pregnant before she realized it.

So no bump and she was still getting periods? I can understand one but not both! Glad everything worked out and you had a healthy girl!

No she always had abnormal periods, like she wouldn't get her period for months at a time. She has a hormone disorder. So her not having a period for 6, 7 or shit even 8 months wasn't abnormal in our world.

Yep, this will get you. I have thyroid issues and PCOS and any time my period decides to show up, it’s a surprise. Like ‘oh, there you are’! I would be terrified all the time about unplanned pregnancy if my partner was capable of knocking me up 😅
