If this happens, it seems that it would be possible for one to be fertilized and implant, while the other does not.

i dont think you know what youre talking about.

anyway, yes it is possible, but i dont know about the chances.. she should have a test just to be safe i think. also, depo is always a good way to keep babys away

how old is she btw?

talking about babies plopping out...Couple months ago a woman travelling in Boston T(commuter train) gave birth to a baby. Nothing unusual but turns out the T was packed and she was standing and all of a sudden people heard something drop on the floor. Turns out it was a baby. She just picked it up and got off at the next station.

It is his business.

No it's not. It's his sister's business.

so according to you, if you see a family member injecting themselves with heroine, or attempting to commit suicide, one should stay out of the business of the family member?

they can have some spotting durring early pregnancy. Some say this may be related to actual implantation of the embryo.

There is a good chance that she may be in denial (is she a teenager?) and we all know how strong that is.

There are good reasons to want to find out if you are pregnant as soon as possible. Goos examples are starting on prenatal vitamins to prevent neural tube defects, avoiding alcohol or if she decides not to keep it and early term abortions are much less complicated.

These are a couple of reasons you can use to convince her to get tested.

good luck

ps if she actually has some significant bleeding she could have had a early spontaneous abortion.

Turned out it was the fetus oozing out.
FWIW I heard also about a woman who was in the bathroom and I guess out came a baby. I don't know if it landed in the toilet or anything but the thing plopped out of her walrus-like body and she had no idea it was even in there. Utterly repulsive she must have been.

i remember hearing about that happening to a high school senior at her senior prom but i think she tried to dispose of the baby and got caught.

I dont think many people, even ATOT members, could tell their sister to start DIITB

besides, just because she is eating too much does not mean she is pregnant. How do you know she is having unprotected sex?

Girls lose a lot blood during heavy periods and thus feel weak sometimes. So I don't see a big deal if she eats a little more. I do think that you are jumping the gun(oops typo) here.

I have heard many people I know that have had full blown periods for 3 months while they were pregnant.
If she is a young teen you should definatly tell her you are concered. It is your business because teen pregnancy IS a family matter it WILL effect your entire house. MANY familiy's I have seen this happen to often results in the parents getting a divorce from the added stress of the new child that they will mostly be taking care of.
Becarful and tread lightly.

EDIT: I started playing with my cat after I started posting and didn't know she was 19... If she is 19 its not really your business any more she should be able to make her own desicions now.

yes. its very common for a woman to have a period -though less heavy- in the very beginning of pregnancy.

Dude, that was CSI or maybe Law and Order or actually maybe even Joan of Arcadia you saw. ONe of those shows had an episode where the exact thing happened.


On another note, I think it is his business. If my little sister (if I had one) was having unprotected sex and is quite possibly pregnant, I would feel compelled to do something about it for her and help her out.

I had mine with my son, for the first two months, so yes, it is possible.

And even skinny women can not realize they are pregnant sometimes, they had documented cases in my nursing classes about it. Women that were 110 lbs, that never grew at all. Amazing.

No No No ... that story he's talking about is true, I remember hearing about it also. The girl left it in a dumpster behind the school, or in a trashcan somewhere, to die. She was prosecuted for this as well.

That's because she was paralyzed from the neck down jackazz. Nice of you to be so kind about this lady.

Dude, that episode was based on a true story. Happened a few years ago.

When I said "it seems", I meant I was only guessing at a possible reason for it to occur.
Since it obviously does happen with many women, can you explain how?
