I have a friend who was once very large and started getting fit. She cut out alcohol, went to the gym, and was losing weight. Her periods stopped. She went to the doctor - and was told it was normal to stop your periods when losing a lot of weight and kept getting fit. She found out she was pregnant when doing a pinch test for body fat. The instructor told her to go back to the doctor because she felt extremely firm. She gave birth two weeks after accidentally finding out she was pregnant.
I was feeling off, so I took a pregnancy test, and it came back negative. I just brushed it off. My older sister had stopped having regular periods in her 20s, so I thought it could be a genetic thing. I was working two jobs... I was at my evening job when I started 'leaking' thinking I had a UTI... by the time I got off and got home, I was keeled over in pain, and my roommates called an ambulance for me. I got to the ER... and by 6:15 p.m., I had a daughter. She was just under four pounds, born at 32 weeks. It was a shock and a life changer.
I went for an abdominal ultrasound for sharp pain in my upper right chest (the doctor thought it was gallstones), and halfway through, the screen was filled with the image of a baby. I had no idea I was pregnant.
