I love this! We did four years of infertility treatment before IVF finally worked and people didn’t understand why I was depressed. It was hormonal and unexplainable. I think I experienced all 9 of these!

In reply to Michelle. I apologize for taking so long to respond to this! Your comment is the reason why I do these posts. There's just so much negative information out there; it really can make a person apprehensive! I just posted an article about labor and delivery that you might find informative :)

I found out that I am pregnant last week. This is very happy news, but being that it is my first, I have a decent amount of nerves and uncertainty built up! Reading your point on avoiding Google at all costs is much needed advice (and to be honest, not the first time I’ve been recommended this in the last week). It’s hard not to search for anything and everything related to pregnancy when it’s your first child and you haven’t a clue what to expect, however, I completely agree that I have worked myself up into a true worry on numerous occasions after doing so. Your article was uplifting and informative, and for once, I am glad Google pointed me in the right direction! Thank you 🙂

I definitely agree, each pregnancy for me is different, we are expecting baby 2 in less than 3 months and even though I have experienced most of this before I still find myself wondering how it will all turn out 🙂

Totally agree with all these, I enjoy your reading your posts! I will say, however, googling rare pregnancy complications saved my life! (literally). I had a blood pressure reading that was slightly elevated, but nothing too concerning, yet I had the strongest impression something was wrong. I went home, read up on pre-eclampsia, and tried to brush it off and go to bed. Then at four AM I woke up bawling and said “Jared something is wrong!!” We made it to the hospital just in the nick of time 🙂 Obviously my case is rare, but you never know!!

I missed being pregnant as well. I was lucky to have a pretty smooth one and it was fun.

I loved hearing all the things you learned through your pregnancy and I think it’s wonderful information for anyone, no matter what pregnancy they’re in! Having had 3 girls, I can totally relate to everything you said. Fantastic tips!

I agree with all the things you learned about pregnancy. Though, I think I would prefer to have rose-coloured glasses instead of a friend who is brutally honest. But I am only talking about the whole “What? No, your pregnancy acne is no big deal. You’re still beautiful.” Rather than “HOLY CRAP! What happened to your FACE?!” lol
