The famous saying "No one understands women" should be added "and less during pregnancy." Although I do not adhere, I must recognize that pregnant we are more susceptible. It is due to the revolutionary moment that our body lives and the action of hormones in our moods. Therefore, during this stage we need (and deserve) all the affection and understanding of the people around us.
Becoming a mother is an extremely important fact for every woman; It is the most wonderful thing there can be, but it also implies a transcendent change in your life. From there, there will be a before and after. On the one hand, there is joy, hope, you imagine the baby's smile, the desire to start a family is fulfilled and there are many projects ahead. But, at the same time, fears arise (will he be born healthy?), Insecurities (will I be able to raise a baby?), Doubts (will I be a good mother?), Responsibilities….
There are many contradictory emotions that appear and disappear, rise and fall over nine months. Sudden mood swings. Joys and anxieties. Illusion and concern. Poor husbands! They run at 3 in the morning to buy our last craving, we can remodel the house (they call it the nest syndrome), we propose 235 possible names, all for calling their attention, demanding affection, attention, pampering, affection and protection . Childbirth preparation classes can help you, by sharing your concerns with other women who are in your same situation, you will feel supported and understood. In addition, they will explain all the changes that your body is suffering. Trust your changing feelings to your partner, friends or family, they will know how to listen to you and advise you.
There are also couples who believe that crises will be fixed with the arrival of the baby. Couples' conflicts, the father's lack of interest in pregnancy or problems with the family can explode during pregnancy. After all, the poor baby will not solve anything if there are previous issues. Paternity is very important, and if there are problems it is best to seek professional help.
Luck for those who undertake the path and patience for husbands.
