Holy moly!
Triplets- how could she not know?

There was a TV show about this kind of thing. I remember watching it. It's an odd thing, but it happens way more often than you would think!

I got a call from my mom one night around 15 years ago. My cousin had had a baby, and she had no idea she was pregnant. Thing is, she and her husband had already had a child, so she certainly knew what being pregnant was like... and she still had one and neither one of them, nor her parents, realized she was expecting! We all gave her whatever baby stuff we had.

The poor woman must have been already very overweight which would have hid the normal girth expansion that a triplet pregnancy would have and if she was overweight, she may have had irregular periods and not have noticed that her periods were missing or she may have just continued to spot normally. I cannot imagine the shock that she was in to find out she was pregnant with triplets. I think I would have preferred kidney stones to triplets, lol.

You and me both.

I guess so. But when babies are growing they usually squirm, kick, try to stretch their legs, push up under your ribs, etc and it’s a sign that there’s something is alive in your tummy! Times three!
Maybe she was into denial, not wanting to be pregnant again? It has to be a mental problem!

FFS, no, it isn't a MENTAL thing!! Here, watch a few episodes and learn...

I watched all those shows on TLC and they all made me laugh and shake my head.
I have learned a hell of a lot in my long life, one of them being that most of the shows on TLC are scripted and fake. And sensationalist.
