7 unpleasant things to go through in pregnancy
Waiting for a baby is a wonderful period, but it has its own characteristics.
What happens to a woman during pregnancy? Perhaps this question worries everyone who has not yet become a mother. Waiting for the baby is full of surprises and discoveries, sometimes pleasant, sometimes not so much. The blogger and mother of a two-year-old girl Leila Meshkova told about what they will have to face during pregnancy.
Feel strange
The birth of a child in my case was a miracle. After a serious illness, the doctors insisted that there was no chance, and the anamnesis was “infertility”. But we did not perceive the diagnosis as a final judgment.
After some time, I began to notice that my mood changes too often, there is weakness and drowsiness. One day she could not stand it and called her husband with the words: “My chest is freezing!” To which he happily answered me: “You’re pregnant!”
Tastes can change dramatically
All the “delights” of toxicosis began one after another: nausea, dizziness, weakness, changeable mood.
Porridge? Fu, I don’t want to. Let me chew on the crayon! – But today you have already gnawed 3 good pieces! – So what?
What’s this? New shower gel with perfume? What a disgusting thing. Mmm, the smell of gasoline. This is what I understand, a thing!
I want smoked fish! Or baked mackerel. – But you just ate a chocolate bar! – So what, I want! More precisely, not me, but a belly-resident.
I have always been for a healthy diet, but if you want here and now some high-calorie snacks, then it is better to eat, at least a little, and forget how to spoil your mood and remain a disgruntled grumbler.
Libido rides as it pleases
Intimate life for many during pregnancy is a taboo, which is often justified by medical reasons. Hormonal changes in a woman’s body can both decrease and increase desire. For men, too, not everything is clear: some are afraid of the usual intimacy, so as not to harm the baby. In this regard, everything went mutually and harmoniously with us, and I would say there were even more sensations than usual. But all this is strictly individual. Many people probably know that sex in the late stages can stimulate labor, although this method has not worked for us.
Finding a sleeping position is a whole adventure
Sleep is a separate conversation. In my opinion, the child tries the asterisk pose through the mother’s body. Because, no matter how hard I tried to fall asleep on my side of the bed, in the morning my husband had to sleep in this position. Or even be placed on the floor, because “as everything interferes, I cannot sleep, move away!”
Swelling becomes constant companions
Before pregnancy, I could not imagine how heavy my body would be. Even before the stomach became visible, the arms and legs in the morning looked like pads due to swelling. And in the evening too.
Loved ones can be annoying even for no reason.
My husband must be given credit: throughout my pregnancy, he treated me like a crystal vase, which sometimes also made me mad. I myself, I can do everything, I’m not some kind of sick person! Although in fact she did not walk faster than a duck, she could not fasten her shoes or pick something from the floor. And climbing the stairs to the elevator was a feat worthy of an Olympic medal.
The conclusion that I made: you need to talk about your desires and problems. Men can rarely guess what we don’t like, and empty resentments and nerves are reflected in the well-being of mother and child. Being shy in this case is the worst conclusion. Ahead is the birth and upbringing of a child, recovery after childbirth, and sometimes situations are far from ethical and beautiful pictures.
You are embarrassed to give birth with your husband
At 43 weeks I had a cesarean. To say that preparation for childbirth was extremely difficult is to say nothing. Throughout the pregnancy, we were preparing for a partner birth, but at the last moment I gave up this idea. Like, my husband will see me in this state. Then I regretted it, because there was not enough support and presence nearby.
is it so bad?
What else can I write as an accomplished mom? A child is a real miracle. I believe that children do not come to us just like that or at the wrong time. And if it was necessary to go all the way again, knowing that Milena will be born, I would agree without hesitation.
