When we’re pregnant we go through a whole list of emotions. Right from the beginning when we find out we’re pregnant, to the very end when we bring them home. We are often known as an emotion wreck during the time, but it’s not always for the bad. So, get prepared to be on an emotional roller coaster! What kind of emotions will you most likely have during your pregnancy? Continue reading below to find out!
Surprise – Sometimes we didn’t even plan to get pregnant! Therefore our reaction may show a little surprise. Although, once we accept that we’re pregnant, the excitement begins!
Excitement – How can you not be excited when you’re pregnant? You get to pick out all the cute clothes, design the baby room, and welcome a new addition to the family. This emotion is one we see the most during pregnancy.
Worry – Then we start to worry, we hear horror stories, and try to prepare for the worst. This is when worry sets in. Even though we might not have to worry and the doctor says everything is 100%, we still have that in the back of our heads.
Annoyed – Ugh, we hate when we’re uncomfortable. It can be hard to sleep, our back is starting to hurt, we may be swelling up a little bit, our feet hurt, and we finally get that feeling of “lets get this over with.”
Happiness – Then we go back to our happiness because our stomach is getting bigger by the day, and the day is coming closer and closer. Before we know it, our baby will be right around the corner.
Stress – Now the day is getting really close, and we may be stressing out a little bit. We’re worried about getting to the hospital quick, how the birth is going to go, how long it’s going to take, will it hurt, etc. We’re thinking about everything now, and stress is up there.
At the top – Then, we finally have our baby, and our excitement is at the top. We want to hold them, bring them home, play with them, etc. The happiness is back, and all the bad emotions are gone!
See how much of an emotional roller coaster we can be? We’re all over the place, but it’s totally normal. Having a baby is a huge thing, and therefore we prepare for it in many different ways. Just always remember, have a positive attitude, and that happiness is the most important emotion to have!
