Not Ranked. Helpful AND tactful post? : 0 Re: Are you supposed to feel babies at a month into pregnancy? | | Maybelle,
There are some forums where it's okay to make up stories, about your life, about characters in books, or whatever. But this forum isn't one of them. In this forum, if you want help with your pig, you have to tell the truth about what's going on. We can't help you if we don't know what's going on, and if you tell us things that aren't what's going on, we're not actually helping your pig.
Did your pig have a lump on her belly that you could see and feel?
Incidentally, fetuses can attach other places than in the uterus, at least in humans. This is an ectopic pregnancy and usually needs to be surgically removed, as it's a serious danger to the mother. Usually either the fetus gets large enough to rupture the woman's organs, or it starves because it can't draw nutrients from wherever it is, and dies and becomes an infection. About once every 5 years in the last couple of decades, a woman has had an ectopic pregnancy grow successfully to term because the baby was able to attach to, and draw nourishment from, the woman's intestines or stomach fat, and then they could be delivered by C-section.
However, I have never heard of another animal having ectopic pregnancies at all! Perhaps they are better at absorbing them? |
