Right! I feel so much better hearing this cause I could not keep water down with either of my pregnancies and nobody believed me that it was the water and they said I needed to drink more, but I was just drinking whatever would stay down to survive the first trimester...

The amount of alcohol that goes into your milk is insignificant. She would have had to drink a whoooole lot for you to get drunk. The danger in drinking while breastfeeding is trying to feed your baby while drunk and dropping them

[@miawallace2306]

As a flight att of 16 years, I will tell you that flying well into your 3rd trimester is heavily discouraged. Not because of radiation exposure or a “risk factor” but more because of the possibility of being extremely uncomfortable. Seats are small and should it be a turbulent flight and or the possibility of delays, you may not have an option to get up to walk and stretch as recommended by your doctors.

[@clarkkent5115]

I always assumed it’s because in case you give birth while on the flight and the chances of a medical doctor around is very slim

[@clorox1676]

I'm pretty sure they assume the viewer has a minimum amount of common sense when debunking these myths. They are replying to the myth of "pregnant woman shouldn't fly" which is not true, but of course you have to take into consideration your situation and how long the flight is. The same applies to working out and excercising during pregancy. Of course you can, that doesn't mean it's a good idea to run a marathon or powerlift on your 3rd trimester...

Coffee is so healthy and helpful in pregnancy! Keeping it under 100 grams a day is perfectly safe, even recommended by obstetricians. It can help balance the acid in the stomach, aiding in nausea. It increases energy so momma can actually function instead of shutting down, it helps with moods and attitude, it helps with pregnancy brain, it’s one of the few things you can have without worrying about it affecting baby whatsoever. Coffee has been so great for me this pregnancy. There’s no proof it hurts baby without some other underlying cause. 1 cup a day is fine!

There are also things they say have no evidence, but do have evidence. Women have been drinking wine throughout pregnancy for generations in Europe. It is safe in Europe under a certain amount. They only say there is no proven safe amount, because light drinking isn't a cultural thing in the US and heavy drinking is KNOWN dangerous.

[@calired7090]

ShogunofSarcasm they say there’s no evidence because there’s no way to physically test any of the possible problems in a fetus whether or be physical or mental. You can’t test the fetus mental capacity before and after alcohol or any of its affects because it’s just not possible. So because you can’t test it, it’s safer to say don’t use alcohol. Just because a woman drinks doesn’t mean the baby will have developmental issues, but it also doesn’t mean the baby won’t have developmental issues. There’s no way to test it.

[@ShogunofSarcasm]

@@calired7090 there are studies that have been done. There is zero evidence that 1 properly measured drink a day is harmful. There was a study in England that showed no impact on the IQ of children who's birth mother drank small amounts of alcohol daily Vs a noticeable impact on children of mothers who has more than 4 drinks a day. The one study I have seen that showed a negative impact for small amounts of drinking didn't separate it from cocaine usage which is KNOWN dangerous. Binge drinking is proven harmful, large amounts of drinking is proven harmful, both can lead to miscarriages and premature birth. Light drinking as in 1 a day or 1 a week is not known to cause either, and some studies have shown they are less likely to lead to premature birth. So there have been many studies done. There is lots of proof. The US just doesn't have the same drinking culture that Europe has so people are afraid to outright say 1 is fine, because one drink can mean a bottle of liquor to some people, and that would be harmful. It is better to discourage it. I have no issues with a pregnant woman having a measured glass of wine with dinner once in a while. The studies show it is fine.

I had an unmedicated, natural breech birth! Not a C-section. I was almost 2 weeks overdue, walking every day and between my 38 week scan and my labor starting, my baby boy flipped up when he was head down. It is absolutely true that providers rarely know how to deliver a breech baby. When we transferred from our assisted home birth to the hospital while I was pushing and my sons butt was presenting, the whole ER OBGYN staff freaked out and after realizing he was coming out and I was begging them to let me squat and just help me guide him out, they forced me on my back and 4 people literally put their hands into my vagina, tore me and pulled my baby out! That is NOT how you deliver a breech baby. We had detailed notes of when my water broke, when I started pushing, the length of contractions, my baby’s heart rate during labor, no meconium being present in my waters, etc. They didn’t believe me and was sure my baby was dying! They said that to me! I was so angry! We were having a beautiful home birth and then because of their fear, literally ripped my son out of me. We were giving birth in Montana instead of our home state of Texas and I would definitely get an extra scan around 40 weeks to ensure my baby was still head down. That’s the only thing I’d do differently. We’re now 9 weeks pregnant and we are still planning to have another home birth with a mid wife. This time I’m getting extra scans to ensure baby is head down. Any woman can have a natural birth! I did and it was not as painful as many state. I anticipated the pain during contractions and prepared myself. The most painful part was when my son was coming out and it was made worse because my son was pulled out!

My 90 year old grandmother has accurately guessed the sex of all 7 of her great-grandchildren based on weird old wives tales, including the belly shape/location. Maybe Nana knows something we don't? Or she's just a damn good guesser!

[@bethanydavis9023]

There are different medicines, practices and treatments. Perhaps she had some eastern knowledge alongside the myths.

Well, she has a 50% chance of being right no matter what she says 🤷‍♀️

[@laurao3274]

She just got lucky. She has a 50/50 shot of being right each time. It's like people who seem to always win the coin toss. I recently read a book about obstetrical folklore. It was interesting to see all the crazy things people have believed throughout the millennia, and how most of them are total crap. Including the pseudoscientific ones, like how baby's heart rate can supposedly predict the gender.

[@sik209ster]

@@hannahroyle2886 the odds of being right on a 50/50 guess 7/7 times is less than 1% (0.78%). So she would have to either be VERY lucky or there might be something to her tricks (or the poster just forgot the times grandma was wrong)

[@PatrioticMisty]

“Your belly reveals the baby’s gender” When I was pregnant with my first baby and stranger came up to me and said “you are having a boy! I can tell by how you are carrying!” I said, “actually it’s a girl” to which she replied, “are you sure?” I said, “yes. I’ve had two ultrasounds and both say girl.” She looked at me sideways and said, “we will see” then walked off lol. I’m now 2 weeks away from having baby girl number 4 and carried them all the same way 😂

[@toriwissinger1075]

I carried super high with my boy. People would get downright nasty to me when they would say I was having a girl and I would disagree. The same with my girl. I carried her super low and everyone was getting offended when I told them she wasn't a boy. People are weird 😂

[@sarahelizavoldy]

"What you eat during pregnancy" I wish I could eat. I'm nauseous all the time. Lost 30 lbs with my first baby. This second pregnancy is going easier in the sense that I can drink water and keep it down.

[@ShogunofSarcasm]

The first few weeks I almost lived on McDonald's cheeseburgers and taco bell. They were the only things that would settle right. It is totally ok. Eating something is far better than eating nothing.

After this video and many like it, pregnancy just seems like something I rather not partake in. There’s a lot of sacrifices to it and precautions. And while not impossible to do, it’s not for me. I respect women who’ve taken the decision to have children and become pregnant though. That being said, I am more than happy to adopt a child and raise them in a good, stable home that they deserve. I still want kids. And there’s just so many children left, parentless in the world. Id want to take on the responsibility and care for them as a parent and give them a better life.

[@frenchbreadstupidity7054]

I'm also planning on adopting, though for different reasons I won't disclose. The purpose of reproduction is anyway just to immortalize information, and nowadays, environmentally acquired information plays a greater role in your actions and success than genetic information. So the person who takes the time to form a familial relationship with a child, and inspires them to carry on their culture, values and philosophies, is the real parent.

[@a.b.7932]

Baq Good for you, 👍🏻 like you said there are a lot of children out there who need to be adopted

I was always under the impression that not flying during pregnancy was more of a concern at the 3rd trimester. Even then, it was more concern about what if you go into labor rather than a general health concern.

[@annabees]

My boss' wife got a difficult pregnancy and so when we talked about me travelling during my pregancy (even before the start of my 3rd trimester) he was like "😐😶😳😱😦 I mean, it's you but I'm REALLY not confident. I mean, it's going to go alrright but... I mean". that was both cute and a bit frustrating 😅 I had to tell him I'd go to my doctor for a health check right before I travel to be sure everything was alright. And also, that whole trip was my idea and the others coming were NOT going to wait til I came back from maternity leave. 😅
