<p>The mom was very over weight so the weight gain wasn’t especially noticed and did have mini periods throughout her preganany. When she was 8 months pregnant, she went to her doctor to find out why her stomach was feeling so firm. That’s when she found out that she was pregnant. One month later (last night) she delivered her baby, so she was still in a state of shock over the entire thing. </p>

<p>For the record, she was/is on hormonal birth control.</p>

<p>Thanks, Skyhook–the possibility of the gardasil vaccine being helpful for males was completely new to me. I have emailed the link to my S, and urged him to strongly consider it.</p>
