A story about a woman in the UK who found out she was pregnant just 6 weeks before her due date is gaining attention.


Major UK media outlets reported that a woman in her 20s went to the hospital due to abdominal pain and discovered she was pregnant. At the time she visited the hospital, she was reportedly 30 weeks pregnant.


The woman became pregnant with her second child just 3 weeks after giving birth to her first last year. She said "I had no symptoms at all."


Cases where women do not realize they are pregnant are occasionally reported. In the medical field, such cases are called 'cryptic pregnancy.'


Most women become aware of their pregnancy between 4 and 12 weeks of gestation.



According to a study published in 2011, women begin ovulating between 45 and 94 days after giving birth. While most women start ovulating at least 6 weeks postpartum, some were observed to ovulate earlier.
