What happens to self-esteem during pregnancy
All indicators, both physiological and psychological, are modified. Everything about this Woman is new, incomprehensible and often frightening
And how many new thoughts are rummaging through a cute head? And doubts - do not count ???
Let's try to figure out what a future mother needs in order to find peace of mind and self-satisfaction.
First: to realize that a small miracle is growing inside you, a part of yourself, the result of your love
From the minutes when you found out that you are pregnant, your immortality began, your continuation. It is from this moment that the child is accepted. No matter how the circumstances develop in your life, remember, this little dear lump will always be with you and will become your incentive for further achievements!
Second: observe changes in your appearance and in your emotional world
Rebuilding hormones begins. This means that your appearance and your inner world are changing. The eyes of a pregnant woman radiate a deep, secret radiance, they sparkle with light, love, happiness. There is nothing more beautiful than a woman who carries a child under her heart!
Look at yourself in the mirror - a mysterious smile, a beautiful rounded tummy - what could be more beautiful ?
Your emotions can change with lightning speed, crying will be replaced by laughter and vice versa, anger will turn into an insane stream of affection. Don't be intimidated by your emotions. This is a normal state for the one in which another small life is born and grows. Talk about your conditions to your husband, do not be afraid of it. When you voice your experiences, doubts, states, you will become even closer to your husband. Do not forget that your beloved also has a lot of emotions, experiences in relation to the "new" wife, his new status of "future dad". Do not move away from your loved one!
Third: give yourself and your baby freedom
After all, right now you have so many opportunities to do what you never had enough time for: go to the salon, pamper your arms and legs with pleasant massages; buy yourself something new for the “future mother” wardrobe; enjoy walks in parks, forests; going to theaters, museums; get carried away with reading an exciting book (after all, you put it off for so long) …
To do this, do not forget to start sharing your obligations with other people, do not pull on yourself everything that is possible and impossible just because you are pregnant and you have more time. Give this time to yourself, beloved. Meet your friends, sign up for a yoga class for pregnant women, go swimming, listen to classical and relaxation music. Spend a lot of time with your child's dad. After the birth of a baby, you will not be able to devote enough time to your husband, pamper him with your attention. All this will bring you a lot of positive emotions. And positive emotions have a beneficial effect on the development of your child. When the mother is happy, the baby is happy too!
Enjoy every moment of your new, extraordinary state! You are a mother-to-be! This is the most honorable title on Earth!
Accept yourself for who you are!
After all, for your family you are the best, the most beloved, the most beautiful!
