The surprising effects of pregnancy

[@chatonn4793]

my mom almost died delivering me and honestly, even before i learned this fact i was already terrified of pregnancy. I say respect all women, the ones who want children and are willing to go through this all, and childfree women who would rather contribute to society in other ways. both are admirable, just different.

I wish someone would do a video on all of the symptoms of pregnancy that no one really talks about- like urinary incontinence and hot flashes- but also how the hardest part of being pregnant isn't really the physical aspects, but the mental and emotional toll that being pregnant takes. Its months of interrupted sleep and constantly monitoring your position so you're not laying on your back or stomach. Its depriving yourself of your favorite foods or drinks- whether because they're unsafe for baby or because food aversions mean you can't eat roasted vegetables anymore. Its drinking so much water that you get tired of the way water tastes. Its how carrying a basket of laundry upstairs is suddenly so much harder than it was a month before. Its the way your belly gets in the way when you're doing dishes. All of these things add up. Pregnancy is a huge disruption to any person's way of life. And its exhausting. I'm in week 33 of my second pregnancy....and im so tired of being pregnant. Thats the worst part.

[@stellamoore2788]

yep

[@alisalaska1786]

For these reasons, I feel good about getting pregnant because I have a chronic illness and have had to learn how to cope with not feeling well constantly. It’s the ongoing agony over time that wears you down physically and mentally. Thank god the doctors say I should actually feel better while pregnant. I can’t wait!

[@amystaahs2118]

Yes! And apparently you have postpartum hair loss after?? I am only 17 weeks with my first so I still have some of the things on your list to look forward to... lol. But having to change my sleeping position that I have grown accustomed to for the past 30+ years to become a side sleeper has been really hard. I also feel like it's hard to go out to dinner because I have to consider all the things I cannot have and also how things were cooked for meats that it's a bit exhausting and makes me just want to stay home and cook my own meal because I know everything in it and such. I am very thankful to be pregnant though since it took us a while but it can be stressful and emotionally & physically exhausting at times!

[@katedundas6218]

My mom was pregnant with me while taking care of a six-year-old and a two-year-old and taking extra night shifts at her work, just to earn enough money to care for us all. All the while, staying off of caffeine, to make sure that I was healthy (as a fetus). I realize now, how underappreciated she is.

Pregnancy is amazing it’s the miracle of life. I was pregnant and had experience all these symptoms for 7 months, then my baby passed away in my womb. I gave birth to her without epidural, it’s the most painful thing I’ve ever experienced. Unfortunately, a lot women feel alone when they have stillbirth because people were there for them when they were pregnant but not after when they give birth to a sleeping baby, and that’s the time where they need the most support. A lot of people don’t want to talk about this because it makes others uncomfortable but that is part of the problem. People need to know about this because even if you set it aside and ignore it, it’ll happen to someone you know and they are suffering in silence. Ted Ed, I hope you make a video bout the subject to bring some kind of awareness.

Because the miracle of life is greater than any discomfort endured achieving it. Children are a blessing, and whether you're religious or not, everyone should appreciate the process and respect what it produces. The joy children bring into the world is better than any materialistic or career-driven goal many women seem to embrace these days. It also helps that after birth, we tend to forget a lot of the trauma associated with it. My toddler is almost 22 months old and I'm about to have another baby in a month. I've more or less forgotten how painful contractions are, other than knowing it was about the most painful thing I've experienced. Still, the pain is short lived compared with a lifetime (I hope) of getting to see my children grow up and ideally make something of themselves.
