Some smaller, more niche fanfiction communities might also have such stories. You can find these by doing a general web search for 'fanfiction communities' and then exploring those to see if they have the type of Mpreg fanfiction you're looking for. It might take a bit more effort, but you could discover some unique and interesting stories this way.
One common trope is the element of surprise. The character is going about their normal life, not suspecting they are pregnant at all until something unexpected happens, like fainting or sudden abdominal pain. This builds a lot of drama and tension in the story.
One common theme is self - discovery. The characters often have to re - evaluate who they are when they find out they're pregnant. Another theme is the element of surprise. It's a shock to them and to those around them. For instance, in many stories, the friends and family are as stunned as the pregnant character.
One story is that a woman was still having what she thought were irregular periods, just a bit lighter. She was also very active and fit, so she didn't notice any significant weight gain. One day, she felt some sharp pains in her stomach and went to the hospital. To her great shock, she was about to give birth.
Common themes include the unexpectedness of it all. It's like a plot twist in the character's life. There can be themes related to health scares too. Since they didn't know they were pregnant, they might not have been taking proper care of themselves. So, dealing with potential health issues for the mother and the baby becomes a part of the story. Also, themes around new relationships or the transformation of existing relationships are common. For instance, a relationship with a partner might change completely when the pregnancy is revealed, either growing stronger or facing difficulties.
Well, from a medical perspective, without early detection, there's a risk of complications during childbirth. If the mother didn't know she was pregnant, she may not have adjusted her lifestyle accordingly. For example, she might have continued to smoke or drink alcohol, which is very harmful to the unborn baby. Emotionally, it can create a complex relationship between the mother and the baby initially, as she has to quickly come to terms with the new reality of being a mother when she was completely unprepared.
Writers can make it believable by focusing on the character's lack of symptoms at first. Maybe the character was still having periods, though they were irregular. Also, showing that the character was really busy with other things in life, like a demanding job or studies, can help. They were so preoccupied that they just didn't notice the signs.
Sure. In some fanfictions, the character discovers she's pregnant when she starts feeling strange movements in her belly. It turns out she's been so caught up in other things like her career or a big adventure that she didn't notice the signs. For example, in one story, a young artist is so focused on her upcoming gallery show that she ignores her body's changes. When she finally realizes, she has to quickly adapt to the idea of motherhood, and it's a journey full of self - discovery and new relationships.
Similar symptoms from other conditions or medications. Some medical conditions can cause symptoms like nausea, bloating, and weight gain which are also pregnancy symptoms. And certain medications can have side effects that are identical to pregnancy signs. For instance, some antidepressants or drugs for hormonal disorders can make a woman think she is just having side - effects rather than being pregnant.
