A new mother has revealed her shock at giving birth to her son just one day after finding out she was pregnant. Despite taking six pregnancy tests at different stages in the pregnancy after skipping her period, all came up negative. Amanda, 26 years of age, thought she was just ‘fat or bloated’, while some of her friends even claimed she had LOST weight.
A Woman Revealed Her Shock Of Giving Birth To Her Son A Day After Finding Out She Was Pregnant
Amanda Francis, a pastry chef from Connecticut, USA, doesn't have an idea that she was pregnant all this time. She even went rock climbing at eight months pregnant and continued to work overtime at her job. She also once fell down the stairs and not realizing there is another life in her belly. As reported by The Sun, Amanda said in an interview “When I first found out I was pregnant, I was shocked. I always thought that pregnancy would be a pretty obvious thing."
According to Mirror, Francis was stunned to be told she was two months pregnant after going in for a routine doctor's appointment in July. But when she went into labor 24 hours later doctor's realized they had misjudged her due date. She was actually eight months pregnant and gave birth to a healthy bundle of joy Kellin.
"One of the strangest things is looking back at the time I was pregnant and realizing all of the crazy things I did. I fell down a flight of stairs while holding my cat at five months pregnant, sat for a five-hour tattoo session at six months, and at seven months, I went on a week long trip to Virginia with my friend Jess. While we were there, we went hiking and I decided I wanted to climb some rocks. There's a really great picture of me crouching on top of a rock I climbed, and I love showing it to people and pointing out that I gave birth a month after that picture was taken."

A normal pregnancy lasts about 9 months or 40 weeks and is grouped into three stages, or trimesters. Symptoms and early signs of pregnancy include the absence of menstrual periods, breast changes, tiredness, nausea, mood swings, or other symptoms. A pregnancy test measures the level of hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in the urine or blood.
