Like you all I am just a normal (don't dare to doubt it) human being and of course there are many things that get on my nerves. Let me share one of them, which makes me everytime I come acroos it little bit insane and is definately on my top ten list! Well... some days ago it happened again, when I was reading on the Internet a story of the woman from the USA - mom of three kids, who had strong pain, thought she suffered from the kidney stones, went to the hospital and... gave a birth! You know, at such a moment I feel like...

Whaaattt?!!!!!!!

As a mom of two kids, who was twice pregnant, I can just say... why do media feed us with such bullshits???!!! It might sound cool or unbelievable,  however to me it is like making idiots of people. Did you know that such situation ...when a woman is pregnant and has no idea about it has already been named? No, it isn't called like "first class stupid woman" but it is called "cryptic pregnancy". Cryptic - mysterious :D wooow!

So let's go briefly throug some main symptoms, which for all those women are something they easily overlooked or I have no idea, what they thought, when they experienced some of them...

1. Growing Belly
Logically in some obese women their growing belly is not that visible BUT... baby is moving and kicking inside, it can really hurt and it is something intense. One doctor said that obese women have too much fat in stomach to feel baby kicking or their placenta is placed in front side of stomach and that is why, they don't feel it. Ehmmm, ehmmm .. during my second pregnancy my placenta was placed also from the front side (which is a bit abnormal) and I felt all the kicks even more than before! As almost every woman I gained but still not that much to be called obese, however my belly wasn't anything I would overlook! I felt like mixture of the elephant and the whale but .....Oopss….. for some women something they just didn't notice.

2. No Period
Pregnant women are usually not on period, so almost all those „cryptic women“ stopped being on period for nine months and they just didn't realize something was wrong??? Some women might suffer from irregular period but not like it will come once a year! I guess every normal woman, who finds out her period is kinda late...goes and buys pregnancy test after some days and if not – they should see a doctor. Where is their responsibility for own health?

3. Morning Vomiting (Nausea)
What made me laugh was an argument of a doctor who said - it is normal that some women have such stomach problems that they don't pay attention to morning vomiting (nausea) WHAT????!!!! To overlook such symptom is really ridiculous to me and my brain again can't get somebody considers it totally normal.

4. All other symptoms
Pregnancy also comes with many other symptoms such as women suddenly start eating food they weren't able to put in mouth before. Some can notice that their sense of smell is much more better and that's why intense smell can make them feel sick and can become unbearable. You also might suffer from heartburn etc. According to those women something totally common...

To sum it up, I feel really like they are making fun of us. Either they are really so uneducated and have no idea about basic things or... they are just attention seekers, who want to become famous and media support them with pleasure because of their „unexpected experience“ they say they had no idea about… but do believe me many of them HAD IDEA :-D
