'I didn't know I was pregnant!'
My periods have always been irregular, but it's never bothered me and I didn't think anything of it when my period was due but didn't come.
Then I missed another one, so I decided to do a pregnancy test, just in case. It was positive and I was so thrilled as we'd been trying for some time. The thing is, I didn't know when I'd conceived!
When I went to my first scan, I'd figured that I must have been around 9 or 13 weeks, but the scan showed that I was actually 11 weeks. From the scan I was given a due date, but my bump was always very small so I was sure that my baby wouldn't be due for at least another two weeks.
Mia arrived three days early - I think! Either way she's healthy and gorgeous and that's all that matters.

for the last six to eight weeks i have had increased swelling in the breast (they are huge) blue lines that look like a road map on the breasts swelling on the tummy ( i am quite big anyway) fatigue that has now turned to low anxious mood for no reason my first period came and although it felt like i was heavy and was constantly going to leak when i got up was not actually as thought, just had a period that was 3 days (shortest and lightest i ever had) as usually periods heavy and bad, I havetaken two tests both negative husband and I are confused as everything points to pregnacy, test uses both times predictor any advice
