Bablosik:
My pregnancy was the best period of my life. I enjoyed how my body changes and manifest. I was happy, filled with joy, appetite, love for energy, motivation, and lots of love. I learned to understand my body and prepare for pregnancy and childbirth with https://courses.mother.com/courses/how-to-raise-happy-children-the-danish-way. I recommend it to all moms who think they cannot deal with babies or pregnancy. You are powerful, and you cannot imagine your strength. After this course, I made many mom friends, learned a lot of incredible things, and became more confident.

You were born to have many kids. cheesy

some employers won't let you stay away more than 3 months. How long did you stay away from work?

Beyond uncomfortable. Both pregnancies were painful to the point of being debilitating. I hated being pregnant, but I love the end result. So I will endure it one more time, then my shop is closed for business.

Depending on where you're based there are laws that allow parents to stay at home for longer than 3 months without risking to lose their jobs.

I had no complications but I only enjoyed the second trimester. The third trimester was exhausting. I was sooooo huge and heavy, couldn't walk up the stairs without losing my breath, couldn't sleep at night, couldn't see my feet, had a constant heartburn.

Welldone to all you strong and beautiful mamas.

Tiri gbosas for all of una.

Please, keep the stories coming. I'll glean your experiences for the future.

Love and light.

my third trimester babe cannot be going to work o. I can't risk it cry. The other day a woman couldn't climb bridge to cross road she had to use Keke. I couldn't even see her pregnancy till her cloth shrink small. Can she be okay for work after a month of delivery?

Third trimester is long. It's 12 weeks. If mommy-to-be feels like it, she can work until the end of the pregnancy but I'd guess that most women will find it difficult in the last 6-4 weeks to perform like they used to before baby grew big and almost ready to come in their belly.

After delivery ... It depends on the nature of her job, how quickly she heals after delivery and a number of other factors. I'd say that it's good to have a span of two months to recover and to adjust to the new situation. But then, who is going to look after the baby if she gets back to work after two months?

Why all these questions? Are you people expecting? cheesy

I want to come up with my own answer to walk with. It's like I have to be competent and dependable. If I can't take care of wife and one child, I shouldn't marry. That's what I learnt so far

I became too emotional - shed tears unnecessarily.
Increased appetite.
Frequent urination.

It's really good and will be very helpful to you and your family that you are preparing yourself early on. This is a very responsible way of approaching it. I respect it!

My first was a CS, I was up less than 48h later. This was 10 years ago, I heard things are different now and you can stand up in 24h.
My next 2 were VBACs

But if you meant my symptoms, 24h after delivery, they reduce and disappear within the week. Except for the ones that need repairs sha. Lol cheesy
