First time Mom 🤷🏻‍♀️—who’s got tips?

Question

Ladies I need some suggestions! 
First time mom over here and Not really ever been around babies or pregnant friends. Not really sure what I should be doing!? I called my doc have an appt scheduled for 8 weeks. 
Sooooo in the mean time anyone want to give me some helpful hints? Books to read? I feel so in the dark and sometimes I read posts about people knowing all the details of their pregnancy and I am not sure if maybe I’m just new or if this should be second nature to me?

Answer

I was very ‘ummm what now???’ when I found out I was pregnant with my first.  Try to find a good doctor / midwife who makes you feel calm & comfortable enough to ask all your questions/ worries etc. I felt so at ease with my midwife & it made all the difference to my pregnancy.

Answer

I've been listening to The Pregnancy Podcast, it has a lot of great information based on research. Definitely recommend it!
I'm also a first time mommy, so still learning myself, but trying to stay calm in the meantime.

Answer

Enjoy this pregnancy. I’m now pregnant with baby #3 and I wish I could go back to the first time! I love being pregnAnt so much. And I’m really hoping this isn’t my last pregnancy! I want 4 kids but my husband is on the fence about it!

Answer

Dont be afraid to ask the doc/nurse ANYTHING. they are here to help and guide you.

Answer

I didn’t know anything about kids when I had my so . There is an app called wonder weeks (it’s also a movie) that talks all about the developmental stages of a baby and it’s super informative.
