With my first pg (which ended in miscarriage) I found out at about 11 weeks. I didn't know because DH (at the time only my boyfriend of about 3 months) hadn't told me that the condom burst...silly man! When AF didn't turn up for a second month, and there was no other real reason for me not to have a period, I took a pg test.
With DS1, I was about 7 or 8 weeks. DD was only 7 months old and still breast feeding when I fell pg, and my period was really sporadic, so I just didn't really take into consideration I would get pg yet.
The other three pg's (1 ending in m/c) I was very early, 4-5 weeks.
As for people not knowing until VERY late in pregnancy, how would you not feel a baby moving inside you?? I can't comprehend that, because I always felt like they were trying to claw their way out of me by the time I was about 26 weeks or so!!

It seems incongruous with my experience of pregnancy, but obviously it can happen. It must be incredibly distressing and traumatic, though, to suddenly be having a baby!
With IVF there's no chance of a surprise, so it's not happened to me.
