Is it too much to ask to inform yourself about pregnancy or being pregnant in general before you start writing about it?
Even though the pregnancy can be seen in a blood test after 6-9 days, there is no way that Nicole knows what is happening with her body nor that she is having morning sickness or nausea in general after being pregnant for just under one week as the doctor said.
Oh, I totally agree with you. ;)

Early symptoms of pregnancy won't appear earlier than 1 week of pregnancy. The very first thing an attentive woman can notice is the delay of menstruation. Normally, the menstrual cycle can shift no more than ± 3 days. Many women (but not everyone) can experience a small amount of spotting that may occur during implantation (it's the process of introducing the fertilized egg into the wall of the uterus), which is less in quantity and duration than a normal period. An increased level of basal temperature persists from the moment of ovulation (37.1-37.3 degrees Celsius); outside of ovulation and pregnancy or acute illnesses the temperature in the rectum will be about 36.4-36.7 degrees Celsius. Pregnant women also become more sensitive to various odors. Symptoms of toxicosis (nausea, vomiting) usually begin at 3-4 weeks of pregnancy and reach a peak between 9 and 16 weeks and normally disappear completely by 22 weeks.

hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) typically begins secreting by the trophoblast (the outer membrane of the blastocyst), which was built by 5-6 days from fertilization for the purposes to maintain pregnancy, block the menstrual cycle and stimulate the synthesis of estrogen and progesterone.

The clinical significance of hCG appears after implantation of the embryo to the walls of the uterus (it happens by 5-7 day after fertilization). Reference values of hCG of men and non-pregnant women about 0–5 mU/ml. Values ranging from 5 to 25 mU/ml do not allow to confirm or deny the diagnosis, so we need to wait 3 days, because hCG increases about 2 times every 72 hours.

hCG reaches his peak (225,000 mU/ml) at 6-11 weeks of pregnancy, so, early symptoms of pregnancy will also be more pronounced, and then the hormone begins to gradually decrease until childbirth.

You should open a Gyno clinic.

Well, it is OrbOrigin's game and he can write it however he wants to considering it is fiction and doesnt have to follow the real life rules of pregnancy. IF he was writing a game based on RL than I can understand not being a accurate a big deal BUT it is his VN and he can do whatever he wants to it even if it means shortening the time it took her to get pregnant. There are no rules to pregnancy when it comes to Adult VNs.

Finally got time to play.


I was not expecting Beeman to go all crazy kidnapper on Chloe. Also what the hell is Beeman? The guy got shot twice in his center of mass and was still struggling against the cops. How the hell was he even alive? :oops:

Anyway it was nice to see Nicole shooting him. Now just give her a gun and she can take care of Green Goblin. And speaking of our "gree friend" after the protagonist losing his cool like that there is no way he doesn't know MC is fucking Nicole, not like they were any good at hiding it before.:ROFLMAO:
Even his way of saying "it was your fault the crazy Bee guy kidnaped my daughter" looked like he was hinting at this.

Finally the ashes "sidequest" with Abigail was resolved. Abi is going way to try to find some way to atone for whatever sins she perceive as having but honestly i don't hold anything against her considering her whole situation.
Just wish she had told why she was fired.:unsure:


So Nicole is pregnant. Another reason for John to know she is putting some horns on him since they weren't being intimate until the moment John started realizing Protagonist and Nicole were cheating on him. As if he needed any more evidence. :LOL::LOL:
Only choice for me is to assume the child in this case.

ps: Hope the shooting incident makes Nicole more self confident. Girl you looked badass when you were shooting.:cool:


ps: what is in that damn blue folder?

People have shrugged off multiple .45 calibre pistol rounds... 9mm delivers less kinetic energy on impact (more likely to pass through than .45 cal).
It's not as unusual as people think it is.

I am pretty sure John has suspected the affair for awhile just didnt get confirmation until he found out she was pregnant, especially in the flashback when Nicole was telling the MC about that night we thought they slept together. He probably didnt see the pregnancy coming and I am pretty sure he has something sinister planned for the unborn baby.

Had to laugh at Beeman taking two to the chest and still seemed able to resist arrest lol.. then I wonder if Abi really "left" and I gotta say Marilyn is one of the most annoying characters I've encountered in the VN world. Almost like the annoying best friend but a girl which might actually be worse.

Yep. He got shot in the heart. He should be dead already.:oops:

I had to redo my save using the chapter selection (nuked hdd issue) but i agree with you, Marilyn is quite obnoxious. She is that annoying friend you wish you only met in person once per month and all other comunication was via phone or internet. :ROFLMAO: :p

Haven't played in a long while.
Can we finaly get rid of John (idealy shooting him) ? Or is he still the creepy, untouchable, everything going as planned villian.
Just asking, as the whole John thing was getting really tiring for me and as he is set up there's just so no way that dumbass MC and co could ever hope to win against John if not for some heavy plot armor, followed by a miracle and divine interception.
