Her pregnancy is reported to have surprised Alaskans, including her staff, she made the announcement during the start of her third trimester and just one month before Trig was born. On the day of Trig's delivery, and after her water broke, Gov. Palin first delivered a keynote address in Texas and flew back 8 hours to Alaska. After delivering the child, she returned to the office three days afterward. These circumstances, coupled with Gov. Palin's age, her 16 year old daughter Bristol's 5 month absence from school due to "medical reasons" during the late stages of Gov. Palin's pregnancy, has led to speculation that Bristol, and not Gov. Palin, is Trig's mother.
