It's a pretty insightful question, you see. This one is special for a number of reasons. Now, unlike the other questions, this one actually tells you something about the woman you're talking to. What She Means : The point is, do you have a place of your own in case all goes well and you two want to get more intimately acquainted sometime in the near future. Having a personal place declutters a lot of hiccups. Trick question or not, but you better get the answer to this one right.
When she asks this question, it isn't just to grade you on your manners and chivalry. There's more, a lot more. What She Means : In very simple words, she wants to know if you are a feminist, and what are your honest thoughts about equality and women empowerment. Ever met a Linda Goodman fanatic? People who are star-stuck, quite literally. They eat, breathe and live astrology. Sun signs and horoscopes rule their days and play a deciding role before they come to conclusions.
What She Means : She wants to check if your sun signs are compatible and worth all the effort she is willing to put in. Well, what can we say? To each her own. We have all met them and had our share of experiences with young women who are willing to explore, but cannot get over their love for old-school romance.
But just because they signed up for online dating, doesn't mean they'd drop their wish for a novella-worthy love story. What She Means : She is not here for a mere hook-up. If that's your scene, steer clear before you give her too many expectations and ruin the experience for her. Pregnant women experiencing psychiatric disorders may be aware of their symptoms but deny they are real and link them to other causes. Other women without mental illnesses may experience stress and conflicts about pregnancy, which can lead to cryptic pregnancy.
Doctors have yet to establish risk factors for cryptic pregnancy because they are unable to identify common features. As the cryptic pregnancy progresses, doctors have a better chance of detecting pregnancy. The rate of cryptic pregnancy decreases from 1 in pregnancies at 20 weeks to 1 in pregnancies when active labor begins. Since women with cryptic pregnancies may only become aware of pregnancy in the later terms of pregnancy, they may experience emotional disturbances.
After giving birth, the women may disassociate from their baby, increasing the risk of abuse, child neglect, and death. Women with cryptic pregnancies may have unassisted deliveries because they have not prepared for birth. Women with denied pregnancy may deliver unexpectedly, in some cases, giving birth without assistance.
In addition, around the world, more than , women die from complications during childbirth. Many healthcare professionals report that unassisted childbirth is not safe, and medical attention is essential during delivery. Women who are confident they are pregnant, despite having a negative pregnancy test, should speak with their doctor or another healthcare provider.
The most specific and accurate pregnancy test is a blood test. Doctors will check for the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin HCG in the blood. HCG is a hormone that the placenta releases. If a woman follows the directions of an at-home urine pregnancy test correctly, the results are typically reliable. Other situations may cause a false-negative result.
This means people are pregnant, but the test gave a negative result. Certain medications can also affect the results of a pregnancy test, causing a false-positive result. This means the test shows positive for pregnancy when a woman is not pregnant. Some brands of pregnancy tests are less reliable than others and their sensitivities may vary from test to test. If a woman believes she is pregnant, but the urine test is negative, she should test her urine again in a few days.
If the test is still negative, she should speak with a doctor and request a blood test. Any woman experiencing symptoms of pregnancy should consult with a doctor to confirm the diagnosis. Women who are pregnant require prenatal care, and doctors may recommend dietary and lifestyle habits to promote a healthy pregnancy and baby.
Defining this condition in the DSM would make it easier for doctors to diagnose and treat women with cryptic pregnancies while some women may require help for mental illness. Increased awareness of cryptic pregnancies among doctors may help reduce these and improve outcomes. Most women with cryptic pregnancies will take care of their babies after they are born.
A few women may harm an infant, and, sometimes, cryptic pregnancy can be the first sign of a psychiatric condition. Cryptic pregnancies are more common than doctors first thought. What about the reaction from men? After she went public about her story on This Morning four and a half months after giving birth, Dollan says she was contacted by many women who had not spoken out about their own cryptic pregnancies out of embarrassment.
For her, the proof of her cryptic pregnancy is self-evident. I was carrying crates of alcohol up flights of stairs until I was eight months pregnant. Risk is inherent to cryptic pregnancy, in the gestation period but most acutely in the act of childbirth.
Women can go into labour without medical assistance, sometimes in dangerous situations or entirely alone. Even a relatively straightforward birth of a healthy baby can be highly traumatic.
Instantly, my life changed for ever. For her doctorate, Tighe studied concealed pregnancy: where women hide their babies from others and often, on some level, themselves. Others had confided in one person — often a partner, a family member or a health professional — before denying it to everyone else, sometimes in response to that reaction.
The principal motivator, she found, was fear: these women were terrified, often for their own survival. There was also a close association between concealed pregnancy and trauma such as child sexual abuse, sexual assault and domestic violence, applicable to 11 of her 30 interviewees.
The remainder reported feeling more silenced by the social stigma of an unplanned pregnancy, fearing retribution or loss of control of their lives.
Often the impact of this was only fully revealed with time, and in many cases therapy. One case study maintained that she had not known that she was pregnant until her third interview. Sensational media reporting, too, did not help women to feel they could come forward.
