I'm newly pregnant and curious about what to expect throughout this journey. Can experienced mothers share how they generally feel or felt during different stages of their pregnancy?
My baby is 2 now and looking back, I realize how quickly those months flew. Some days were hard with backache but trust me, when you hold your baby, all that struggle feels completely worth it.
It is such a wild mix of emotions, and feeling worried is 100% normal. I literally cried over small things and kept thinking if baby is okay. Give yourself some grace, you're doing great.
Yaar, actually it’s a total roller coaster. Some days I felt like a superwoman, and next day literally couldn't get out of bed because of nausea. Completely normal to feel this way.
Since I had PCOS, my first trimester was very stressful because of hormone levels. It is normal to feel super anxious about safety, but just take one day at a time. Wishing you an easy journey.
It varies from person to person, so don't compare your symptoms with others on Google. Some feel highly energetic while some have extreme morning sickness. Talk to your gynac if the mood swings or exhaustion get too hard to handle.
My body felt so heavy and different, but I tried to stay gentle on myself. Make sure you rest enough right now because once baby comes and breastfeeding starts, sleep gets very limited!
It's a beautiful phase to connect with your inner self. I felt very calm when I listened to soft music or did positive chanting. Just pray, eat well, and let nature do its magic.
This is so helpful to read! I'm planning to conceive soon and honestly quite nervous about all the changes. Do the mood swings really start from the first month itself?
Initially I had bleeding issues, so I was always on edge and running to the hospital. Every small pain felt scary, so honestly always stay in touch with your doc if you feel off. Don't ignore severe cramps or spotting.
Ghar pe mummy aur MIL keep saying 'khush raho, baby pe asar padega'. But physical fatigue is real with so much cooking and work. It is a mixed bag of feeling tired and excited.
