#cryptic pregnancy

@sensei-venus I just got a chaotic af idea for gremlin!Reader. What if she had a cryptic pregnancy? (cw: birth scene, blood)
Like she never knows or even suspects it at all. Then one day when she's home alone, she starts having this awful tightness and pain in her belly and pelvis. Then it passes and she thinks it's okay, but it continues to happen again and again throughout the day. She hates hospitals and doctors so she refuses to go to one and tough it out.
When she realizes it's labor ain't and contractions, it's too late to do anything about it. She has to push. So as the boss-ass queen she is, she delivers her baby on her own. She pushes a good five or six times before he slides out onto her bed. She struggles to sit up but does it anyway to get her baby in her arms, pat his back, and get him breathing. He starts crying so loud that it shocks her. She gets him cleaned up as best she can and lays him on her chest, hoping to calm him down.
All these little baby delivery things she's learned from listening to Moon's midwifery stories. So naturally when things calm down a bit, she calls Moon and is like "Hey, so I just had a baby."
And Moon is like "Haha, that's so funny, Reader."
"No, I'm serious, Moon, I need you to come here now."
She speaks with a certain urgency that's far from her normal, playful tone. It's how Moon knows she's serious and she grabs up everything in her kit and goes to Hawk and Reader's house. Luckily she knows where the spare key is hidden and she gets inside. She finds Reader in her bedroom with the tiniest baby she's ever laid eyes on sucking on her tit. The room is a fucking mess, especially the bed sheets since they're covered in blood and other bodily fluid. Reader doesn't have anything to cut the umbilical cord with so she and the baby as still very much attached.
"Oh my god, how did you... oh my god." Moon can't contain her shock. She's only ever heard of cryptic pregnancies at this point in her career and she never imagined she'd encounter one.
Moon knows about Reader aversion to hospitals, so she doesn't even bring it up. She doesn't want to stress Reader out more than she probably already is stressed out. So she calmly comes over to sit beside Reader, gathers up the messy sheets, and throws them aside so they can at least get some clean sheets in there.
"Sometimes it's hard for first-time moms to get babies to latch on," she says, watching the tiny baby hungrily suckle on his mama's tit. "How'd you manage this?"
Reader kind of shrugs. "I don't know... when he started crying again, I just kinda knew he was hungry and did it."
Reader's voice is so soft and it's a different side of her that Moon hasn't seen before. She's still their gremlin of the group, she's sure, but Reader is so tired after the surprise labor that she really can't expect more of her. Still, Moon takes it as a sign that Reader is going to be a great mama despite not being ready for a baby whatsoever.
As Moon does everything she needs to - cut the umbilical cord, clean up Reader, check the baby - they talk about how this all happened. Reader explains how she had no idea about any of this, she never even had a suspicion. Then she tells her about how much it hurt, how scared she was, and how when she finally realized what had to be happening, she just had to do it. Moon tells her how proud of her she is for staying calm during the whole ordeal and how strong she is. Having a baby is a lot on the body and labor is intense, but she's done so well.
While she's checking the baby, he gets a little fussy when taken away from his mama. However, as soon as Moon starts talking to him, he calms down. He knows that sweet voice. This is one of his mama's friends.
Moon brought everything she could possibly need for the occasion and she's happy to report his good health. "He appears fully developed and perfectly healthy. Good job, mama."
She also brought a number of baby things for Reader, like a few clothes and a blanket, so she wraps him up to stay warm as soon as he's all checked out and cleaned up. Things calm down again and the pair talk about everything they can about having a new baby around. Then they hear the front door open and shut.
"Hey, babe! I'm home!"
It's Hawk. And it's at that moment Reader remembers how she never called or texted him about what was going on. She just took right to taking care of her baby boy and getting Moon over there.
Of whom, Moon jumps up and assures Reader she'll handle it. "I'll go tell him gently." Then she disappears and there's some light greetings to be heard.
Then Reader is pretty sure she hears Hawk faint.
Moon comes back in, grabs something from her bag, and exits again. She uses a smelling salt to bring Hawk back to reality and he jumps up.
"I could have sworn you said, with all the seriousness I've ever seen from you, that Reader had a baby."
"That's exactly what I said, Hawk."
She explains the situation to him before anything else happens.
When he brings her to the bedroom, he doesn't faint again. Instead, he goes straight to Reader's side as quickly and quietly as possible. "Jesus Christ, are you okay? Is the baby okay? I didn't even know you were pregnant- well I guess you didn't either based off of what Moon said, but still. Holy shit."
Reader states at him, then laughs. It's that chaotic laugh he fell in love with and he wonders what the fuck is so funny in a time like this, but also he's relieved because she's feeling well enough to laugh.
"We're fine, Eli... he's perfect."
She smiles and looks down at her baby boy in her arms. He stares up at them, taking in his pretty mama and handsome daddy. He's dressed in a green onesie Moon grabbed on her way out (I think she keeps all sorts of baby stuff to give to parents she works with in baskets she makes for them because she would so do that). It's a little big for him but it keeps him warm and that's what matters right now.
Hawk takes his little hand and holds it, staring at him with a still shocked but happy smile. "Hey there..."
While they're having their little moment, Moon starts filling out the birth certificate. She looks up ever so often to check on them, only to find Hawk holding Reader as they just admire their little one. It's so cute of them.
She stands up and brings the certificate over, showing it to them. She explains what they have to do and ends by saying, "You don't have to have a name for him now. Figure that out when you know."
"I think I know," Reader giggles, looking back down at her baby boy with a smile.
Hawk kisses the side of her head. "What's that?"
"Mason... Mason Elijah Moskowitz."

I would love to go through a cryptic pregnancy with a partner. People say they really didn’t realize they were knocked up when it happens in real life … so I assume neither of us would be able to tell. Maybe you develop a slightly softer belly, but the lack of other symptoms makes us both unaware that my baby has taken root inside you. 9 months of unnoticed gestation leading up to a labor you’re extremely unprepared for. Maybe we’re just chilling at home, or we could be in public or on a long car ride when you suddenly start feeling cramps. Wondering out loud if it was something you ate or just a random twinge. Feeling the panic as 1 cramp turns into 2 or 3 … you’d be moaning and whining as we both try and figure out what to do. Suddenly it’s too late and the cramps start to overlap as something shifts inside of you and starts to move down. A heavy mass locking itself into your pelvis. Your waters breaking and soaking your pants with a gasp from the both of us. Instincts take over as you start feeling the urge to bear down and push. Still confused about what’s going on. Imagine the surprise when you finally pull down your pants and reveal that mass starting to bulge your crotch. Imagine how crazy it would be if I had to frantically pull over to support your straining hole as it opens for our surprise. Pulling back your legs as you push, a dark teardrop quickly forming between your lips. Another push and you crown, straining for a moment before something pops out
Fuck … it’s a head

shikatema where she doesn't know she's pregnant - missed periods were a common occurrence to her. so as being nauseous because it happened a lot when she was still in suna. no vomiting as well - just a cryptic pregnancy. she found out by 7 months when her weight gain started to bother her.

Fanfic idea:
Gizmo's mom did not find out she was pregnant until she was in labor, and shortly after the birth, she died of childbirth complications.
This really shook Gizmo's dad. He became rather reserved and reclusive. He is rather cold to his son, even though he is very invested in his life.
What do you guys think of the idea?

Okay, so I've been freaking out for like months bc I learnt about cryptic pregnancies. Now, my mind has me convinced I'm pregnant. Help!
Context:Had sex a few times (always with a condom), and one time, there was a very slight penetration afterwards.
I don't exactly remember when this happened, but I know it wasn't after mid-April. The only symptoms I kind of have are back pain and a weird feeling in my stomach area and stomach ache after eating. Everything else is normal e.g. usual period cycle and no sign of a bump.
Also, to add, I have a chronic disability (hypermobility syndrome) and undiagnosed illness that may contribute to these symptoms. I also have anxiety, social anxiety, and paranoia. I will not speak to anyone or go to the dr's about this bc of the social anxiety and have no idea what to do. Some people say that a cryptic pregnancy won't show up on an at home pregnancy test, so idk what's right.
Has anyone ever been in this situation bc I'm scared I'm gonna pop a baby around January. Help please.

it’s funny
earlier on the day you posted the fic a friend and i were talking about cryptic pregnancies and how scared and unprepared you’d be 😭
i’m clairvoyant 🤭
hi angel ✨ before anything else, i deeply want to thank you for your extraordinarily support!! you’re one of the people i always notice on my dashboard & it always makes me happy to see you 💛
& that’s a very funny coincidence!! well, it definitely seems like you’re clairvoyant 😅 but for sure, it should be so scary to experience that like out of the blue you’re giving birth or finding out almost in the end that you’re pregnant 🥺

It pisses me off when people (even mothers who gave birth) think that all pregnancies are the same.
So watch this short video!

he's the god of foresight not the god of hindsight (and also he's just kind of an idiot)
i just want to see him writhe around in pain for hours on the wall going through literally every other excuse he can think of before he finally actually feels between his legs and acknowledges the surprise baby he's been subconsciously pushing out under his kilt

thinking,,,,,,,, darling who has a cryptic pregnancy....... [insert twst character here] reacting to it,,, maybe you and floyd and you're both a little dense because neither of you could have ever guessed. T_T
"what do you mean you were pregnant this whole time???? i thought shrimpy just got softer. :D" - floyb mindset.
in floyd's defense, he has no idea how human pregnancies work. he slept through that part of land boot camp!!! fell asleep the minute the professor started droning on about how humans don't lay eggs like mers do. jade can only chuckle (maybe he knew, but in classic jade fashion he won't tell because it's much more entertaining to sit back and watch everyone slowly figure it out) and azul is shaking his head in disbelief. had he known, he would have prepared well in advance to lend a helping hand. and you're just so amazed because maybe you were told you're unable to get pregnant, but somehow it happened and you had no idea all this time.
thank you to floyd and his mer virility for doing what was thought to be the impossible!!!!!! <3
