Woman stunned by sister’s ‘hurtful’ reaction to her pregnancy announcement: ‘I felt ashamed’

A woman who longed to be closer to her older sibling can’t believe how far they’ve drifted apart. 

She went on Reddit’s “Am I the A******” forum to share what went down when she announced her pregnancy. The woman’s half-sister is nine years older. Over the years, the big sister has often disappeared without much communication — but when the two sisters are together, they actually have a great bond. However, now the rift between the two siblings seems bigger than ever.

“Last summer I found out I was pregnant,” the younger sister explained. “I called my sister and she didn’t pick up. That was not atypical, but I was so excited after my ultrasound I wanted to tell her right away. Usually, it would take her forever to return a call, if at all, so to peak interest, I sent a link to the ultrasound photos from my appointment

The complex case of the ‘most hated woman in Alaska”
[email protected]_84

Ashley Ard became known as ‘the most hated woman in Alaska’ after leaving her newborn baby girl for dead in a local park, within hours of giving birth to her in the bath at home.

The 24-year-old, originally from Virginia, was charged with second-degree murder and faced up to 99 years in jail, with members of the Eagle River community calling for her to face the death penalty. 

Her husband Kennard, with whom she already shared a daughter, denied all knowledge of her pregnancy, claiming he had no idea she was expecting despite having sex with her the week before she gave birth.  

Throughout the complex legal case that ensued, which spanned five years and saw Ashley separate from Kennard and remarry before becoming a mother again while awaiting trial, her defense team insisted she was innocent.

Now a new four-part BBC Three documentary series, Accused: A Mother on Trial,

“I Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant” isn’t just a reality tv show –  it’s a real phenomenon. While rare, it’s completely possible for someone to be unaware that they’re pregnant until late into term or even until they go into labor. This is called a cryptic pregnancy.

“I have seen it for sure, but it’s not incredibly common,” says Dr. Christine Greves, OB-GYN at Orlando Health Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies. 

For the most part, women with cryptic pregnancies discover they’re pregnant after week 20. This happens in about 1 in every 475 pregnancies.

“They can go through basically half of their pregnancy and not know it,” Greves says.

However, there are rarer cases of cryptic pregnancies – about 1 in 2500 pregnancies – where someone doesn’t realize they’re pregnant until they are literally about to
