I've been reading through this forum while preparing for parenthood myself, and I'm excited to share my journey so far!
As a first-time mom-to-be due in [insert number] weeks, I've found it really helpful to read about other mamas' experiences and learn from their triumphs and struggles.
I'm currently in my second trimester (yay, feel-free-to-ask!) and I must say that it's been a whirlwind so far. From the initial excitement of finding out we were pregnant, to the various prenatal checks and health tips... it feels like there's always something new to learn or consider.
So, I thought I'd start this thread by asking: What have been some of your biggest surprises or most significant takeaways from this pregnancy journey? What did you (or still do) wish you knew before becoming a parent?
Feel free to share as much (or as little) as you like - whether it's about the emotional, physical, or logistical aspects. I'm really looking forward to hearing from all of you and learning from your experiences!
