So... uh...
does anybody know how you tell if somebody's pregnant?
I don't mean me, I mean somebody else.

...Use a pregnancy test?

And I think we can tell it's not you, y'know.

loz_wolf January 31 2009, 08:43:47 UTC

er, good. I did say so.

Well usually you don't see changes right away... takes a while.
Maybe a test or something?

Re: [v o i c e] loz_wolf January 31 2009, 08:57:30 UTC

d'you know how long? I mean... what kind of changes we talking about here?

Re: [v o i c e] marionettetamer January 31 2009, 17:43:11 UTC

Well, maybe two to three months? I think the stomach gets big, but it doesn't really get THAT big at first.

Re: [v o i c e] loz_wolf January 31 2009, 17:57:49 UTC

does take a while, huh...

Like Tatsuki said up there, pregnancy tests are one way of knowing whether or not someone is pregnant. You'll have to read the instructions yourself if you want to know how it works, though. There're plenty of them in drug and grocery stores.

Ultrasound is another form of checking. You would be able to find those in a hospital, if you can find any that are in working condition. They give you an actual visual of the womb to see if the woman is pregnant or not.

Good to hear you're not the one becoming a mommy.

How complicated are these things?

uh... yeah, thanks

acrossthememory January 31 2009, 17:23:02 UTC

They're not complicated. Just depends on the person. There are other symptoms to look for, mostly hormonal changes. I could go into more detail but that's probably saying too much.

I'm not a midwife, but if you need any help I'm sure there are some doctors around here who have a better idea.

loz_wolf January 31 2009, 17:59:36 UTC

so... it's different for everybody? Great...

hellgun January 31 2009, 17:56:57 UTC

loz_wolf January 31 2009, 17:58:16 UTC
