“Why didn’t anyone tell me it would feel like this?”

Pregnancy is often portrayed as a time of glowing joy and excitement, but for many, it’s more complicated.

You might be feeling anxious, exhausted, or emotionally overwhelmed. Maybe you're navigating pregnancy after a loss, struggling with fertility trauma, or wrestling with unexpected changes to your body and identity.

Whatever your story looks like, your experience is valid.
