A woman who is carrying a baby. The state is possible after unprotected sex or when protection has failed. Getting pregnant can be unplanned or planned so pregnant woman might have different kind of decisions ahead depending on her lifesituation.
Woman: Honey, I need to talk to you.
Man: What is it?
Woman: I'm pregnant.
Man: *totally speechless and pretty confused*
Woman: Honey?
Man: ... I'm going to be now a... dad?
Men might be scared of the situation or in a shock at first though they actually could have wanted to have a child.

This is what happens when a male and a female have sexual intercourse and the sperm fertilises one of the woman's eggs after ovulation.
Contrary to popular (male) belief, pregnancy is not the woman's fault, it takes 2 to tango if you know what I mean...
Women also do not get pregnant to 'trap' a man. Because if he was indeed worth holding onto, she would not need to get pregnant to keep him, nor would a rubbish guy stick around if he got a woman pregnant either. (See scum or coward)
Pregnancy is the aprox 40 weeks of gestation in which it takes a human being to develop and grow inside his or her mothers body before birth.
It is in 3 stages (known as trimesters)
Pregnancy is divided into three stages called trimesters, each of which lasts three months. The first trimester covers the first 12 weeks of your pregnancy. This stage is often the worst with morning sickness and fatigue as common symptoms.
The baby grows inside the uterus, gaining it's nutrition from the placenta and kept safe and protected by the amniotic sack.
The woman's body goes through serious changes both physical and mental.
The mental changes include, hormonal, she may feel depressed,anxious,happy and angry, her mood changes often, she is not going mad, she is just pregnant!
the physical changes include: her tummy growing (obviously)
her breasts growing and producing milk ready for the babies arrival, usually in later stages of pregnancy she may leak milk.
Her nipples will also swell and darken, her breasts will grow larger, she may also get other skin conditions depending on hormone levels.
Aside from good changes to her body she may also find her immune system is weak, leaving her susceptible to colds,flu and other virus' and infections. When a woman is pregnant, her immune system is in over drive to stop her body from rejecting the unborn baby.
Pregnancy can be both a wonderful and horrible experience for someone. (including the babies daddy who has to put up with a very hormonal pregnant lady)
And before any man can insult a pregnant woman let me just say, if you get a girl pregnant and blame her for it, she is not going to want or need you anyway, so don't think your so great :)
A baby growing up with one parent is better than a baby growing up with an asshole for a father.
Not all pregnancies end with a baby though.
Some women for what ever reason choose to terminate the pregnancy, this does not make a woman a bad person, If she is not ready or in a good position to have a child, or say she became pregnant after rape, then she may choose to abort. No one has the right to judge someone for terminating pregnancy. Abortion is neither right or wrong.
Some pregnancies also end in miscarriage, and some pregnancies are ectopic.
Pregnancy is a natural thing and without it the life of all species would cease to exist.

"I think I'm pregnant.."

is the carrying of one or more offspring, known as a fetus or embryo, inside the uterus of a female human. In a pregnancy, there can be multiple gestations, as in the case of twins or triplets. Human pregnancy is the most studied of all mammalian pregnancies. Obstetrics is the medical field that studies and treats pregnant patients.
Childbirth usually occurs about 38 weeks from fertilization, i.e., approximately 40 weeks from the start of the last menstruation. Thus, pregnancy lasts about nine months, although the exact definition of the English word “pregnancy” is a subject of controversy.
One scientific term for the state of pregnancy is gravid, and a pregnant female is sometimes referred to as a gravida. Both words are rarely used in common speech. The term embryo is used to describe the developing human during the initial weeks, and the term fetus is used from about two months of development until birth. A woman who is pregnant for the first time is known medically as a primigravida or "gravida 1", while a woman who has never been pregnant is known as "gravida 0". Similarly, the terms "para 0", "para 1" and so on are used for the number of times a woman has given birth. If a woman has never given birth, she is referred to as nulliparous.1
In many societies' medical and legal definitions, human pregnancy is somewhat arbitrarily divided into three trimester periods, as a means to simplify reference to the different stages of prenatal development. The first trimester carries the highest risk of miscarriage (natural death of embryo or fetus). During the second trimester, the development of the fetus can be more easily monitored and diagnosed. The beginning of the third trimester often approximates the point of viability, or the ability of the fetus to survive, with or without medical help, outside of the uterus.
