A news article today claimed that a 23-year-old woman in Washington state went to the hospital with a severe stomach ache and left there with a full-term baby boy ! She said she didn't have any idea she was pregnant.
Having experienced pregnancy three times, I have some questions about it :
1. Did she notice a large bulge on the front of her body ?
2. Did missing 9 months of "you know what" give her any clue that something
was wrong ?
3. What about the smell of food cooking sending her flying to the bathroom to
throw up ?
4. And even if she missed all those clues, after about the 5th month, a baby
starts moving around inside - initially giving fluttering feelings which
ultimately turn into full-blown, blatent, hard kicks to the ribs commencing
about the 7th month and continuing for the duration of the pregnancy.
Do you think after all that she just figured she had eaten some too spicy chili dogs ?

This facinating phenomenon has always intrigued me as well. I've heard of it happening many times and I will NEVER understand it. When I was pregnant with Will he had hiccups all the time. What would she have thought THAT was???
I don't know...you should never underestimate the power of YESTERDAY'S chili dogs!!
Sara,
Loved your quiz on a "True Southerner" I took it, rated 100%.
I currently reside in Indiana, a transplant from Louisiana. I'm am making a mid life career change, I'm in nursing school, last year too! We had a guest speaker in class today. He left us with a website that had a personality disorder quiz (I'm in my Psych component) That's where I found your quiz. Thanks I need a not so serious break for the day.
