How about a video about p.u.p.p.p? I had it while pregnant & it was torture! Got it with both pregnancies. I realized I was pregnant the 2nd time (before my 1st missed period) because I suddenly had the sensation of bugs crawling on my legs.
I live in UK have had one baby boy who is 4 in November I gad one question cravings I'm not pregnant now but still have cravings for watsits and milky-way yogurt together is it normal
I’ve started AG1 bc of this channel 😊 Thanks for delving into this aspect of pregnancy. Luckily mine (just 1 kid here) was pretty smooth up until the last few uncomfortable during sleep weeks. Please, please cover how milk is produced from our digestive tract to milk ducts!🙏🏼💛🤱🏻🥛 Does the nutrients come from the intestines and stomach or what’s going on there?
@Timmy Well bacteria dividing themselves isn't that impressive considering that humans do it as well, the first cell of the human body is the zygote which basically divides itself until a whole new human is created.
I’d love to see a video showing how the body goes “back to normal” after a pregnancy. A lot of people assume woman go straight back to “normal” and hit the floor working the next day… I like people to know why maternity leave will help a mother out as well.
I’m almost 6 months first time mom. I’m 38 and with high risk pregnancy. My journey has been tough 4 miscarriages,thyroid problems,endometriosis,pcos. This is clearly my rainbow baby. Congratulations to all mothers you are never forgotten you will always be loved.❤
Once done with pregnancy, check your dental situation. Most of those conditions come from passive infections in the gums (root canals, cavitations …) Often all those conditions regress after removing those dead teeth. ❤
My daughter just had identical triplets girls at 31 weeks and the human body is AMAZING!! They were all sharing the same placenta, they are all doing well. 🙌🙌🙌
Damn... that's a alot of babies. How's she doing? One is hard, but three sounds rough. Also, I've always been curious, will she be color coding them lol
My daughter her first pregnancy was twenty years ago she was expecting twins. And they shared one placenta. The girls had TTTS. We didn’t have a good outcome. Your daughter must have been given over to a specialist early on. God bless her and, her three little ones.
Please make pregnancy videos as a series! There is so much more that could be explained. Being a woman who has two kids, I still learned a few new things!
Me too! I'd be interested in knowing what happens when pregnancy goes past the due date. Both of my kids were about 2 weeks late before they decided to make an appearance.
I've had 3 children and honestly I never actually thought where my other organs were being pushed up to. Probably because I spent 9 month with my head down the toilet😂.
I really think you guys should cover the delivery process and how the body heals afterwards. I know so many people who think your body just "snaps" back to normal. The human body is so fascinating in the healing process and in so many other ways. I appreciate how thorough this video is. I watch just about every one you guys release. My six year old was enamored watching this with me and asking me questions about my current pregnancy. She understood this video pretty well. (As much as she could follow, but she enjoyed it.) You guys keep up the good work and I excited for the next video!
@@wangariwairimu1st in my experience it takes a minimum of 6 weeks plus some regular light exercising your pelvic floor muscles. It can take longer depending on if there are any issues with the birth or if a cesarean has taken place. But with the other muscles, I’m not 100% sure. I’d like to know as well.
Can we at least say “thanks” to the preserved body in this video for helping to give us a great visual representation of what happens during pregnancy? 🙂
Yes, much appreciation to the person who donated her body to science. I was mind blown with the two aprons! So disembowelment isn’t as the movies depict of a never ending flow of spaghetti. I have given birth & now makes sense with the acid reflux, I had it bad & meanwhile old school grandma said that the baby had a full head of hair 🤔 Pregnancy was an amazing experience despite the spontaneous morning sickness out of nowhere vomiting on a sidewalk downtown 😅
Actually, this is one of the few 'myths' that is supported by science - I read that it has to do with the levels of a specific hormone that trigger muscle (sphincter) relaxation and is also likely involved in hair growth in the fetus'@@Anacondextra1
My wife had hyperemesis gravidarum, 😢 I wish this on no one, we were in and out of the hospital for months due to excessive vomiting. She lost a ton of weight and couldn't even bathe herself. 😅 Boy those were some scary times, thank God the baby came out healthy and she is fine now.
Yeah I had it twice. It reeked havoc on my body. It took al least 5 years for my body to heal and 7 years for my mental state to go back to normal. It was horrendous.
I REALLY DON'T THINK MOTHERS GET ENOUGH RESPECT OR APPRECIATION OR UNDERSTANDING IN THIS WORLD AND I THINK IN OUR INDUSTRY EVEN MORE. TO ALL THE MOTHERS OUT THERE YOU ARE F INCREDIBLE!!! ESPECIALLY THE ONES WHO ARE DOING IT ALONE! SUPER HEROS! LOVE YOU ❤
I am pregnant with my first baby (only 5 weeks) and also a nurse, so I love seeing the anatomy of things but especially the amazing miracle of pregnancy! It's insane and terrifying, but I know will be worth all the trouble at the end. 🥰 Thank you!
I feel your pain, I had a similar situation with my son. He turned 5 at the end of Feb and he is in age 7-8 clothes already! He eats us out of house and home. I have no idea how tall he will end up but he's my big puppy!
I'm the stepmother to my husband's now-14-year-old son (we've been together since he was 2) and my husband was a bit apprehensive about having more kids because "babies are hard." My initial reaction was... probably not very empathetic. 😂 I will say about pregnancy for me the scariest thing for me is that fact that you really have no idea how it's going to go. There have been elite athletes who have almost died, and there have been obese smokers who have perfectly healthy pregnancies and deliveries. It's such a mixed bag of things that can go wrong!
@@Ad_InfernoThere’s an athlete who definitely died recently while in labor. Not almost. A lot of people die from childbirth (and even pregnancy) that are not spoken of in the news on a regular basis.
Hence never ever ever question or reason a pregnant lady why she feels or behaves the way she does. Unless guys r willing to share her physical pain and discomfort by going through it practically which is not possible given the human body structure. So respect your partner and suck it up whatever u r going through bcz trust me she is going through things u can't even understand and process. And also respect your mother even if she is nuts, she pushed u out for u to exist is good enough for u to value her😅❤ Also never having kids😂 after watching this... Love this channel. It has made me respect, accept and appreciate my body❤❤
It's important to have understanding & kindness for when people are going through things obviously...But pregnancy &/or being a mother isn't an excuse for abusive/toxic behavior ultimately, it's still unhealthy.
I've never been pregnant, and I can honestly say I have NO regrets. Hell, my body gets on my nerves and I've never even created a human being, so I take my hat off to alll of the mothers out there. This is why Mother's Day is a much bigger holiday than Father's Day.
As someone who is going through their third pregnancy, there are some things that are great about being pregnant. But there are a lot of things that make pregnancy a pain in the ass
@@n.c.picturesI felt exactly the same until I was 19-- I was seriously considering getting my tubes tied! Now I'm 22 years old and 5 1/2 months pregnant. No regrets. Yeah it's been awful at times with morning sickness, aches and pains etc., but I know it'll be worth it when our little girl is born. As I'm writing now, she's kicking me like no tomorrow 😂
I nursed a woman that had such severe HG that it induced MS like symptoms and changes in her brain. She had to terminate the pregnancy in an attempt to stop the rapid deterioration. Sadly that didn't stop her symptoms and she died a few months later. I never knew how dangerous pregnancy can be for some and although very rare, I have never forgotten that young girl.
Also, this was fascinating to watch and apply to personal experiences. I became pregnant when I had ovarian cancer, and the tumors grew along with my baby. I remember not being able to even breathe properly at about 30 weeks because the tumors were just being pushed wherever they could fit as my uterus grew. I went in to see the doctor and they admitted me immediately. The neonatal specialist said they were perplexed at how I was able to continue to carry with so much being squished around, and that my body was carrying the equivalent of 3 fetuses, but only one was in my uterus and the other two weren't, which makes for an entirely uncomfortable experience. After 20 to 25 weeks, even bumps in the road while riding in the car could at times be unbearable. In the end, the little one was worth it, and truly a little miracle.
OMG. That's incredible ! Really hats off to you for handling it. Curious to know, how did your body react to birth along with cancer ? Were you on cancer treatment along with pregnancy ? Either ways it would have been crazy for your body to cope with both. I hope you healed well. ✌️
My grandfather donated his body after he died back in early March of this year, he suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for half of his life, and wanted people to learn about it. Even in death he was still giving to people, he truly was a great man. I miss him dearly. While he was alive, him and my grandmother watched over me while my parents were busy. He taught driver's ed and woodshop, and was even part of the city council later in life.
I am currently 19 weeks pregnant with my first baby. You have no idea how the body changes. Not just physical but also mentally and emotionally. Pregnancy is such a hard journey. I didn’t know it would be this hard. Carrying a human being for 9-10 months is just overwhelming
And then you wonder why we do this more than once. We can blame this wonderful hormone oxytocin that not only allows us to bond with the baby but also makes us temporarily forget everything we went through. 😂
I had an idea, which is why I skipped it. During my childbearing years I had a horrific fear of anything medical related, and I was also pretty ill (requiring multiple drugs each day). I could not have tolerated constantly being medically evaluated, the toll on my body, and potentially giving up any medications that I needed to live.
@@doctordarcy8385 Quitting medications is what worries me too, especially along with all the hormonal changes affecting a pregnant woman. Depending on the med, the woman would also have to give them up while breastfeeding.
@@kellymichelley It was not an option for me. I could not have gone without my medication. I could not even have blood drawn during those years -- I was too terrified. By the time I was 33, I ended up with severe endometriosis (Stage 4) and fibroids, so pregnancy was off the table anyway, (at least from a physiological standpoint). I have since aged out.
It's really strange feeling going on inside after delivery, because you kinda feel that all your organs drops down when the uterus starts shrinking back. Also it feels nice to deep breath again 😀 It's really great explanation why in the end of pregnancy (3rd trimester) we do whatever so slow and getting tired so quick 👍
@@LovelyAngel. well, if you would fall into panic attack just because you breathe but it's hard to do it deeply because there's no space for your lungs to expand, then I can't imagine how you would go through delivery 😅
Omg what's the BEST though is after delivery when you finally have enough room to eat a whole meal and then some! Lmao I was so sad when I couldn't finish my plates. ..I definitely made up for it when I gave birth
@@katiep3027 All eating habits stayed the same for me. Usually people say eat for 2, but it's the reason why many women has to work hard to lose weight gained during pregnancy. Through entire pregnancy I gained 16kg (35lbs) and lost it in a month after delivery
Thank you for mentioning HG. When I was pregnant my doctors didn't know about it, and I was told it was in my head despite the fact that I was hospitalized for ketones and dehydration. I'm thankful that it's now recognized as a real medical condition so others can get the help they need in managing it.
I’m sorry that happened to you. Health professionals dismissing your condition because they don’t understand can feel isolating to suffer and it’s unfair. My nurses didn’t believe me on my first baby that my water broke because so many women urinate and think it’s labor. I felt frustrated about how they decided not to believe what I would tell them because I was on my first labor. It’s awful when they don’t believe what you tell them! I’m glad that people in medicine are still learning and figuring out more things based off what patients are reporting because I empathize knowing how it feels to be dismissed.
@@thelifeofruth hyperemesis gravidarum, it's a condition where pregnancy hormones cause constant vomiting sometimes the entire pregnancy, resulting in issues like weight loss, ketosis, throat erosion, dehydration, and occasionally death (not as common anymore).
@@selinamularz9194 oh my goodness!! That sounds horrible! I’m 12 weeks pregnant now but this past weekend I had diarrhea all day Saturday! And Sunday in the middle of the night. And Nausea like crazy! And every time I ate anything my stomach would hurt… it was a nightmare!!! I can’t imagine going 9 months vomiting straight… I cried to my husband on Saturday…
I suffered from HG during my 2 pregnancies, but the 1st was worse. I spent most of my days at the hospital getting iv for dehydration 😂 tmi vomits=pee 😂 I would have to use diapers and shower frequently because of the vomiting 😢 sometimes I would eat just white rice and vomit 1 min later. Horrible!
I would love to learn the changes in the brain pregnancy brings. Like the different hormones that might get release during and after, how it affects the mood, the possible "maternal instinct" (which is probably more a "protection instinct", idk)... In any way, I love your videos, how well explained they are and the amount of drawing references they bring (mmmm me love yellow guts) Edit : typo
You also stop being able to remember things like names as easily (mom brain is real). This change can have effects for the rest of your life, too, not just right after pregnancy.
I find it interesting how that maternal instinct tends to last even after our children are full grown. It goes away in other mammals until they give birth again.
Same here! For literally the last three days, I have been in “nesting” mode. Just tons of energy! What’s going on? Total 180 from my good old lethargic and randomly sick 5 months. I asked myself “Is this the lowered hCg that he’s talking about? Does it suddenly make one feel like they have superpowers?” 😂
HG survivor here. And I do mean survivor. One of the hallmarks is weight loss. I lost 45 lbs in the first 5 months. Debilitating, horrible. Couldnt even keep water in my system. IVs saved my life. So grateful to science that kept my daughter and I alive through a horrible pregnancy. That being said, my body was AMAZING, literally still sustained my child through minimal food and water.
I have immense respect for you and every other woman who went through HG... i was lucky enough to not have to go through it, but it was even terrible for me for the first 3 months. It was terrible and i actually worried if i should seek help at one point - so i cant even begin to imagine how you must have felt 😩❤️
You forgot pressure on the bladder! I literally had to "go" every hour in the 3rd trimester. 😂 Excellent work! Thank you for this during Mother's Day ❤️
I carried triplets to 34 weeks, all in separate sacs with nothing shared. It would be interesting to hear more about the extremes the body undergoes. Also, what happens after delivery/cesarean.
👏 Can we have more evidence that we are designed? 🥳 Intricacies such as these don't arrive from a worm who decided to turn into a fish and crawl out of water. Whoo! Praise Jesus, He is alive. You are loved 💕
I’ve never understood pregnancy to this degree. I feel like I owe my wife an apology for all the havoc that occurs. Well Done and a great presentation.
I just had my second baby 5 days ago. Unlike the first time, this time around I had a really good birth and I still cannot believe that I walked out of the hospital the same day as if nothing ever happened. I am absolutely stunned that my body did that, still can’t wrap my head around it
This video absolutely blows my mind! I had six children, (all adults now) and I never fully comprehended. This gentleman has a fantastic way of presenting the information and I will absolutely pass it along. Thank you!
Hyperemesis Gravidarum survivor here 🙋🏻♀️ I Can honestly tell you, that I felt like I was at deaths door many times, during my last pregnancy 😮 To say that it was very hard, is an understatement. Our daughter is “made” on Ondansetron, watermelon and Sun Lolly. I have not had a single bite of watermelon, since pregnacy. 😂 How I made it through, is beyound me. But my then 2 year old daughter and husband, kept me going. I am so happy, to have 2 beautiful daughters now. Some women suffering from HG have to either terminate the pregnacy, or loose it. And they will never get to have a baby 😢 So I feel very blessed, to have my girls, after all that suffering. One thing that has really changed, is my eating habits. When my husband is cooking meat, or bacon, I just about die 😂 The smell was so severe during pregnacy, and 7 years after, I still don’t eat the the things I used to, before getting pregnant.
Ugh!!! I found my people! Everybody thinks I exaggerate when I tell them how SICKKKK I was!!!!! I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. There were days I really didn’t think either me or my baby were gonna make it😅 yuck
Went thru HG with my 2yo baby girl & I’m 15 weeks going thru it even worse now! Thankfully my ob has agreed to tie/burn my tubes cuz it’s definitely been a down time, can’t work, been in the er 4x, been on at home iv/zofran pump! S/o to us mamas cuz pregnancy is no joke!! It’s crazy how some ppl could have 5+ kids with no issues 😮
Would you believe I actually got rid of one particular winter coat after birth because I threw up so many times when I was wearing it I associated it with my nausea. My mum ended up taking it and even years after having my baby I banned her from ever wearing it around me. It’s a nightmare that scars people in inexplicable ways
So incredible what the body does during pregnancy! I would love for you to talk about pregnancy complications like the vena cava syndrome, hypertension, pre-eclampsia, deep vain thrombosis, diabetes, placenta previa, ectopic pregnancies or miscarriages, just to name a few. I'm a nursing student and paramedic, so I'm especially interested in all emergency aspects with symptoms and their etiology. Keep up the great content 😊
I had hyperemesis gravidarum in both my pregnancies until the end. It was horrific and has firmly put me off having more children. Honestly though between that and now seeing this I understand why I still don't feel fully physically recovered even though my eldest is 5 and my youngest is 2.5. Imagine recovering from the stress to your body from this without the sickness, that alone would take ages, now add severe weight loss and not even being able to keep water down the entire time this was happening to you. Feel a bit more impressed with myself for even getting to the end of the day without a limb falling off now 😂
I'm currently 5 months pregnant with my first child and, of all the things there are to learn as a first-time pregnant person (which just adds to the exhaustion and brain fatigue caused by everything else), THIS is what I've been wanting to learn about, the most!!! Like, what's going on in my body?? It answered so many of my questions!! Thank you so much!!!! And thank you to the donor and donor's family for making these lessons possible. They're invaluable. ❤❤❤️
Hey! My baby has the same due date as yours! Idk why they call it morning sickness because it's midnight and I'm puking now. I am so tired of being sick all the time. Stressing about losing my job, money that I'm losing out on, losing sleep, and not to mention on top of puking constantly I'm starting to get a bunch of back pain 😅😅😅 I've been only able to stomach Ensure/Boost and any solid food comes back up. I'm gonna he happy when it's August
I'm 35 in my 3rd pregnancy, and "morning sickness" has been different for each pregnancy. This time around, it's not every day. It's random. It likes to skip days and doesn't care if I've eaten. I am looking forward to my 15 weeks, when it went away the last two times. Good hand gestures in the video!
I’d love to see a video about the on-going effects in the body of having a pregnancy; the things that change permanently, for a smooth pregnancy and a troublesome one.
i've never wanted children and this video just reaffirmed my decision 😂 the body goes through so much trauma and the mother is not even treated well in society (ridiculous expectations for women to snap back to bodies before pregnancy, loss in identity replaced by motherhood, lack of love and help from the husband, not enough maternity leave, wages and job prospects affected by the pregnancy, etc.). no thanks 💀
Hey, can you go over the different pregnancy complications that can happen? I had pre-eclampsia and delivered at 34 weeks and had an emergency C- section. Can you also go over what a C-section does to the Uterus and the complications that come along with that? Also, my morning sickness was awful, I threw up every day for 4 months, and it stopped and then came back in my 3rd trimester. Being pregnant was the most wonderful yet weird experience I've ever been through.
I grew three new humans and can confirm everything described in this video (though my morning sickness wasn't much and I only remember it with my first). I loved being pregnant and most of my memories of it are positive (they were all about 2 decades ago, so it's hard to remember a lot) like being amused by watching the bump that was my baby's foot travel across my abdomen. But one strong not-so-good memory is how it was a challenge to roll over in bed in the third trimester with such a big belly. My babies were all 9 pounds at birth.
You should also discuss the negative aspects of it as well. People should think about what they could go through and be more informed before they make a decision to have kids.
I’ve heard stories from a few ladies that almost died during childbirth! It really opened my eyes to what a significant event childbirth is on the body.
@@Kyenta, The only thing I liked about being pregnant was No Periods! I know some ladies still have them, but mine went dormant for 9 months. But the 6 wks of afterbirth time... not fun!
@@lrzr96absolutely! But because it’s such a common event, most people are desensitized to how risky it is! I am pregnant with my second, and I will have to have a cesarean section (not by choice) to reduce the risk of uterine tear during labor. My first baby required an emergency C-section because she was breech when I went into labor. That could have been deadly for the both of us. So now, I have to have C-sections. ANYWAY, that is a major surgery. And my husband’s boss will likely not approve paternal leave because “child birth is a normal part of life, and I didn’t take off when my wife had our kids 30+ years ago” 😑. So I will have the weekend to “recover” and then I will be on my own for the majority of the day to care for my toddler and newborn with a fresh 4 inch surgery wound. 🙄 Thank God, I have my parents who are retired who will be with me to help me. Because I don’t think I could do it without injuring myself. But not every woman has that option..
Really appreciated seeing the actual inside of the body. It really puts into perspective how much stretching and loving the body does to accommodate a fetus. Literally everything shift’s and expands…. Even the heart?!? Truly mind blowing!
I was always fascinated with it as a child and now as an adult. Even after having my own 3 children, it is still amazing how the entire process works. It's truly a miracle that any baby and mom come through birth alive and intact. ❤
Thank God ♥️ He is the creator of life. He formed you. He created the heavens and Earth 🌎 The video magnifies His glory, He is the creator and we are designed. Jesus loves you ❤️
You should do a video of what happens to the body during the labor process. I mean, man, there must be a lot going on, and like, how amazing our body is! 🤯
I had HG each and every pregnancy. Thankfully after I had it confirmed with the first, the docs knew and kept an eye in it with my following pregnancies, and as soon as they were uncomfortable with my amount of puking...they jumped on treatment. Unfortunately, I still got hospitalized each time and ended up with picc lines and even a feeding tube with my 2nd pregnancy! Zofran is a life saver. Especially when I had my picc line and had to go around with an IV pole in public. Thankfully, people see that, and many volunteer to help. Which was. A godsend when my husband was deployed and I had a 2 yr old and a very difficult 2nd pregnancy.
I LOVED being pregnant BUT….. I was so so sick. But I still loved to feel her and bond with her. I do have ptsd from how nauseated I was. Growing a baby is not easy, even the smoothest pregnancy. It is amazing and awesome that we can experience! No matter how you have a baby its magical!
I have emetophobia and it's because of the nausea that comes with most pregnancies that i've never had a child although i love kids. Mothers are saints and angels in my book.
@@SK-ut6tw no... you don't. but you can get it from severe HG. HG isn't morning sickness. . I almost died with my last child and six years later I'm still dealing with the after effects.if that pregnancy
Your body, the female body, knows more. There's nothing to be scared. That's why we are called women. It is embedded in our DNA to give birth. Your body is now going into autopilot in that regard. You just need to eat healthy, do not stress, and live happy. If you see a movie and it makes you cry, go for it. Sugars, at a minimum, gestational diabetes is real. Keep your baby's father close. Things will change for him also. Otherwise, have fun.
I loovee your channel! I'm currently pregnant with my first baby (conceived with and IUD 😮). I'm sure I've watched this vid before but it hits wwaayyy different now. Im trying to be as informed as possible. Im halfway through week 11 so I hope to GOD everyone is right about things getting a little better in T2.
I'm at 29 weeks with my first baby right now. I knew nothing about pregnancy at the start and I have learned so much about our incredible bodies during this. It's been one of the most bizarre but amazing things I've ever experienced. And I've still got a while to go! I learn something new about my body every day. Love this video!
That’s amazing, congratulations! Seriously though, you think you have a while to go but it’ll go so fast. Plus, baby could come early (mine did, she’s a preemie that was born at 36 weeks) or then again could come late. But it’s amazing feeling being a mum.
One of the most interesting things to me (Side note I do prenatal massage as a License massage therapist) is the release of a hormone called relaxin that gets the connective tissue ready in the pelvis for birth and usually releases during the end of the second trimester/ beginning of the third trimester. Birth and pregnancy is fascinating.
@@Pokedawn100 yesss very well could be why. I’m in my second trimester with my first but by week 6 I noticed I had hip pain that only got worse. By week 22 I saw a chiropractor for the first time and she said due to relaxin by sacrum illium joint in my hip has shifted upwards and my mid spine has gone to the right. This baby is messin me up 😂
This is also released in the first trimester and reduces from 12 weeks - trust me, I had to look it up cause my muscles started aching after normal work outs.
You are right when you say there really aren’t enough adjectives to describe this phenomenon!! Right now to me is ASTOUNDING! To think I’ve gone through this process twice knowing now what didn’t know then is incredible. Thank you so much for this humbling experience.
Currently 20 weeks with my first and boy let me tell you that hyperemesis gravidarum KICKED MY ASS. My first trimester was AWFUL. I lost 5kgs and only manage to gain 3kgs back so far. The nausea and vomiting is still happening even now in my second trimester, but as awful as what it is and has been, I'm relieved and happy to know my baby girl is growing and as healthy as ever! Personally my pregnancy sucks, but it's all worth it for the little human growing inside of me ❤
I'm currently 27 weeks pregnant. My first trimester felt a bit like a never ending hangover. The only thing I would say could be improved in this video is showing more pregnant women who don't look obviously pregnant. The hardest part of the first trimester was I didn't look pregnant at all and didn't want to tell people until the risk of miscarriage was lower so a lot of these symptoms I had to try to hide especially at work.
Sadly, showing or not we all probably hide things to some degree because regardless what employers say or portray they usually aren't as thrilled that their employee is pregnant, as the employee is. It's wrong. It's discriminating, but they don't care....they try to find other ways to get around the law.
Currently 26 weeks pregnant and I feel you so much regarding having to hide the pregnancy during first trimester. Thankfully I felt comfortable enough to tell my manager early on and she gave me a lot of allowances with regards to working from home, but boy it was hard trying to hide all the morning sickness, food aversion, and extreme fatigue around Christmas and New Year time. Don't know how people keep doing it while going to work, you're a trooper!
I understand not looking pregnant ! I am 22w with my first and I can literally feel the baby inside of me growing and taking up space and I walk around feeling huge but even my doctor said I am not the big. Also my boyfriend and family has said I’m hardly showing at all and I’m just like wdym?!!! It’s discouraging when you feel it but others can’t see it so it’s almost like they lack sympathy for you…
Lol it’s funny that you say the first trimester felt like a never ending hangover because that’s how I found out I was pregnant with my 3rd child🤣 I went out for drinks on my bday but the hangover lasted a week so I thought something is very wrong🤔 I wish you and all these other ladies a happy/healthy pregnancy and safe delivery 🤍 and don’t worry about not showing! Baby is still growing, in due time you will be able to see that baby bump☺️ Remember we all carry different just cause your sis in law started showing at 10wks doesn’t mean you will. Don’t feel bad! 🤍
Omg, this really does feel like a never ending hangover (and you’re not even allowed a glass of Prosecco to ease up the feels). I am 8 weeks now, thankfully not vomiting, but the constant strong nausea, exhaustion even when not doing anything and also being so irritated by noises, smells, ugh!! Not so simple, and it’s still such a short term yet. Hope it will all be good and healthy.
I suffered from pelvic girdle pain (or symphysis pubis dysfunction) during my pregnancy and it was horrible. I don’t think my doctors understood what it was and the epidural didn’t help at all with that pain. Two years later, I still feel it occasionally. I’d love to see you talk about it, even if it’s just to bring awareness to it.
Omg I also had this for both my pregnancies. Both at the 5 month mark, I started having excruciating pelvic pain, like someone kicked me in the pelvis every time I walked, or raised a foot higher than 8 inches (up stairs, getting into a car, etc). It was horrendous.
Y'all might consider checking out pelvic physical therapy --it can really help with the pain, even later on after pregnancy. I've been doing it after my third child and I have so much less pain and feel a lot stronger.
I had this when walking, and every so often I would almost fall down. You can’t imagine the panic that ensued in everyone around me! I think it was less painful for me than it was for them, particularly in the later months!
Dealt with that with all 3 pregnancies and afterwards. Currently dealing with it now 11 days post delivery of 3rd baby. My doctor is going to refer me to a physical therapist after my 6 weeks, she did my last pregnancy but I only went to one session. Kids have messed up my pelvic floor and it just needs to be realigned. I also have hip instability because of it. Sleeping with a pillow between my legs and wearing and SI belt during the day helps and also doing bridges until I start therapy. You should definitely talk to your OB about getting a referral to a physical therapist if you can.
as a mother of 2 soon to be 3, i always amazed by my body and what it’s capable of! Thank you for recognizing the same as most men don’t get it! fascinating video!! keep them coming
Wow that's incredible. I'm now 36 weeks and 4 days pregnant so just about full term. It definately feels like everything has shifted throughout my pregnancy. I have been fortunate enough not to have any morning sickness but have had acid reflux which is a horrid thing too experience. Thanks for your video.
The human body is mind blowing- absolutely beautiful ❤ I'd like to see the channel's take on conception, fertilization and the different phases of pregnancy, it never gets old
Im a first time mom and I’m 11 weeks. Im use to having so much energy. My body is doing amazing things and I need to be patient with myself. Great video!❤
My mouth has refused to close. Someone pick it off the ground for me. WOW! Well done.❤ The woman body is incredible. I'll like to understand what the body does during ovulation too.
❤ such an amazing process ❤ As crazy or gross as it can be, It is the greatest thing I had ever been through. All three of my children are a part of me forever. I will never love or care about anything else on this earth like them. It is the realist connection you can have with another human. Each of my children came here with blood, sweat, and tears, but it was worth every second. It taught me so much about myself. I came out stronger each time emotionally and physically. They are a gift from me to me. And a gift that strengthens mine and my husband's relationship. And they are the greatest people I ha e ever met. Sometimes buttholes but they still are amazing. All by this crazy and intricate process. 😳
I remember thinking how out of control I was of my body while i was pregnant. The changes that happen to you are so automatic. I never had morning sickness but there was swelling and large veins showing up and you just temporarily turn into a machine for building a baby. So amazing.
I knew I was pregnant each time before any testing because all of a sudden I was covered in huge blood vessels, particularly on my chest area! Shocked me every time 😅.
It's horrible filling your body doesn't belong to you, you are out of control and al you have left to do till the rest of your life is just cope with it, you won't have it in control ever again, and that's horrendous
As a pregnant person currently thank you for this video and yes sometimes it is hard to catch a breath in the 3rd trimester I would love to see how the body and mind react during breastfeeding
@@shanishay9713thank you! How anyone can watch this video, see just a shred of what women go through to maintain human life on this earth, and then talk this foolishness about “pregnant person” is beyond sensible comprehension.
I have to give you props for this video! I generally end up very disappointed by videos explaining pregnancy when they're made and narrated by men because they just can't stop themselves from inserting opinions, slimey jokes, or they treat the words "woman" and "mother" like dirty words. So thanks for a straight forward and respectful video.
A special video indeed! ❤ Current in the first trimester. Thank you so much for discussing the changes that occurs during pregnancy, I love your videos!
I almost died giving birth to my 8 year old.. code blue was called on me bc I lost 2 litters of blood so fast.. I still have complications from that birth..before that I was on bed rest for that pregnancy due to issues with bleeding. Thank you for covering this for us moms out there!
That is just terrifying and is one more reason I'm not having kids. I got some problem where I can't take basic blood tests at the doctor without having some kind of horrible episode where I feel like I'm dying and it takes me an hour to recover from. My body went into shock from blood loss and I fainted after someone pulled just 4 vials of blood from me and they called an ambulance on me when that happened. My doctor doesn't know why this happens to me other than maybe my body just can't handle it.
@@SilverStarFourthis is called vasovagal syncope, my husband has this issue. He is super sensitive to blood pressure changes in the brain, so blood draw does that immediately, even causing seizing. Lay down, FLAT, or even with your head low below your heart when at the phlebotomist, and also sniff an alcohol pad and hum or sing a tune for distraction, literally those things prevent him passing out. Good luck!
I'm postpartum after having twins. I had a short torso to start with. Kudos to all the moms who have carried triplets+, as well as those of us who have had 1 or 2 babes at a time!!
I'm infertile. This video shows the beauty (and hardships) women face as they nurture their children. ❤ I would be VERY interested if they did a series on infertility!
Yes, I too had requested something on similar lines - Mullarian Agenesis to be precise. However, we know they have to get a cadaver with the anomaly for a demo.
I know some people who are and are super fat. Since put body is a machine. If the machine is not healthy enough, it will not get pregnant because of the extra fat or hidden health issue. Some yeah, don't have the right eggs.
Please don't give up .... You can still be a mom ... .so many children that long for your Love .... It's amazing what mom can do ... Like make a mess in the kitchen .. You just cleaned the living room .. Turn around and . OMG .. What happened ... You have kiddos .....
@@maryross1875 some people can’t help to be infertile. It could be a condition or something but it shouldn’t stop them from being a mum. As it’s said, adoption is an option. Just because one can’t have biological kids, doesn’t mean they can’t be a mum to a deserving child worthy of a loving home,
I used to be infertile. I was diagnosed with severe PCOS and had less than a 1% chance to get pregnant without aggressive medical intervention. Now I have no sign of PCOS and I am very fertile. The doctors are constantly asking me why my records have PCOS on my records when they no longer believe I have it. I learned a lot in my past ten years to reverse my condition. There is hope that things can and will change. There’s too much to share about healing infertility and multiple types of infertility by amping up all working parts of the reproductive system. However, a common thing that helps a lot is to heal your hormones through rich nutrition and reducing cortisol. Stress reduction exercise like yoga, dancing or weightlifting really did a lot overtime. Also, good sleep hygiene! The next thing is timing. Fresh and healthy sperm supply needs to happen as soon as you can tell you ovulate. As long as you have ovaries, open fallopian tubes and fertile sperm present, it’s almost impossible to not get pregnant but you have to learn and understand your body hormonally a lot too. I hope that whatever infertility you experience, that you can heal yourself and find this advice helpful. I always empathize and want to help those who carry the burden and grief of infertility.
This video explained in detail why after two children the need to have my gallbladder removed and why I'm now diagnosed with having a Hiatal Hernia through my Diaphragm.I love my children dearly❤Pregnancy truly did a number on my body.😢
I had HG my entire pregnancy in both pregnancies. It was the worst with my son and I had to get a pic line for meds and nutrients. It is so depressing, isolating and sad. Most people say you should be glad you can have a baby but it makes it difficult to get through the pregnancy. Glad I made it through!
@@heroncolby2842women do most of the work, i do agree men should have a say but if they don't do their part (which is seen quite often) then a woman should be able to chose what she wants to do next.
Something that is also incredible to me is how recent studies about the processes of pregnancy and the hormones involved in some of the symptoms are. Says a lot about the recent focus on women’s biology and medicine, even for a process that is basically the basis of human life.
As someone considering pregnancy I would greatly appreciate a whole series on this topic. I feel like you guys are trustable qnd the visual aid is helpful. Also how does the fundus grow that tall?? Like good grief I never thought part of me would grow fast at all but apparently the fondus is having all the fun.
I just had my second child this summer after 18 years. I had the first as a teen and wasn’t mature enough to understand or appreciate the process. This time around though… absolutely mind blown. ❤️
This is the best video I’ve seen on the topic thus far, as a first time being pregnant I am learning as much as I can about what’s happening to my body and this was so enlightening. Please continue with this series!
I lost half my blood when I birthed my first (2 year old) because my placenta didn’t detach from the wall properly. I’m now 4 weeks pregnant with my second and I’m terrified this is going to happen to me again. I’m even more terrified now I know that you’ve had this twice!!!!
@@The-C1arkeC1an at least there are flew changes that it will happen twice so don't be too pessimistic, I feel your fear but nothing is written on stone. There are no possibilities to understand it before getting birth? It would prepare the patient and the hospital for better intervention.
Holding my 4 month old now and this video was a great learning experience ❤ I knew about most the organs getting moved around but had no idea it moved the heart around as well.
Hence never ever ever question or reason a pregnant lady why she feels or behaves the way she does. Unless guys r willing to share her physical pain and discomfort by going through it practically which is not possible given the human body structure. So respect your partner and suck it up whatever u r going through bcz trust me she is going through things u can't even understand and process. And also respect your mother even if she is nuts, she pushed u out for u to exist is good enough for u to value her😅❤
Do you realize that while the process is amazing that children don’t ask to be born and most people volunteer to do do it and some even carry and give birth as a job? You also can’t tell people how to feel towards their mothers because you don’t know their lives.

How about a video about p.u.p.p.p? I had it while pregnant & it was torture! Got it with both pregnancies. I realized I was pregnant the 2nd time (before my 1st missed period) because I suddenly had the sensation of bugs crawling on my legs.
I live in UK have had one baby boy who is 4 in November I gad one question cravings I'm not pregnant now but still have cravings for watsits and milky-way yogurt together is it normal

Thanks for delving into this aspect of pregnancy. Luckily mine (just 1 kid here) was pretty smooth up until the last few uncomfortable during sleep weeks.
Please, please cover how milk is produced from our digestive tract to milk ducts!🙏🏼💛🤱🏻🥛
Does the nutrients come from the intestines and stomach or what’s going on there?
I’m not able to chose America/United States as a country for delivery.
The ability of the body to just *build another one* will never not be insane to me
Other placenta mammals do it too. Nothing special
Bacteria dividing themselves is more impressive.
@@dbdgirl-o3i Special and impressive are very different things.
@@timmy-wj2hc How ,?
@Timmy Well bacteria dividing themselves isn't that impressive considering that humans do it as well, the first cell of the human body is the zygote which basically divides itself until a whole new human is created.
I’d love to see a video showing how the body goes “back to normal” after a pregnancy. A lot of people assume woman go straight back to “normal” and hit the floor working the next day… I like people to know why maternity leave will help a mother out as well.
Great idea

It never does
My body has definitely changed and will never go back to pre pregnancy body.

Im sick of glamorizing pregnancy from mainstream media that this is a small relief, to acknowledge the struggles women's bodies go through. Thank you
Exactly 💯
I agree, it’s very hard on the body. It really shows after menopause in my experience
It's not that bad!!!
It is that bad to some
I've never seen glamorized pregnancy. At worst, it may be not talked about enough.
I’m almost 6 months first time mom. I’m 38 and with high risk pregnancy. My journey has been tough 4 miscarriages,thyroid problems,endometriosis,pcos. This is clearly my rainbow baby. Congratulations to all mothers you are never forgotten you will always be loved.❤
Congrats! Best of luck. I hope the rest of your pregnancy is as smooth as possible.
Sending you so much love ❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations on your rainbow baby.
Once done with pregnancy, check your dental situation. Most of those conditions come from passive infections in the gums (root canals, cavitations …)
Often all those conditions regress after removing those dead teeth. ❤
Goodluck. Been through that. Mine took 7 years to get pregnant. Have a safe birth mummy❤
My daughter just had identical triplets girls at 31 weeks and the human body is AMAZING!! They were all sharing the same placenta, they are all doing well. 🙌🙌🙌
How sweet 😊 congratulations to you and your daughter.
Damn... that's a alot of babies. How's she doing? One is hard, but three sounds rough. Also, I've always been curious, will she be color coding them lol
My daughter her first pregnancy was twenty years ago she was expecting twins. And they shared one placenta. The girls had TTTS. We didn’t have a good outcome.
Your daughter must have been given over to a specialist early on. God bless her and, her three little ones.
Congrats! I’m pregnant with fraternal twin boys right now! Currently 32 weeks ❤️😊
@@greattribulation3759here twins 13weeks pregnant
Please make pregnancy videos as a series! There is so much more that could be explained. Being a woman who has two kids, I still learned a few new things!
Me too! I'd be interested in knowing what happens when pregnancy goes past the due date. Both of my kids were about 2 weeks late before they decided to make an appearance.
Agree ❤
I've had 3 children and honestly I never actually thought where my other organs were being pushed up to. Probably because I spent 9 month with my head down the toilet😂.
Yes!!!
probably another one on mother's day
I really think you guys should cover the delivery process and how the body heals afterwards. I know so many people who think your body just "snaps" back to normal. The human body is so fascinating in the healing process and in so many other ways. I appreciate how thorough this video is. I watch just about every one you guys release. My six year old was enamored watching this with me and asking me questions about my current pregnancy. She understood this video pretty well. (As much as she could follow, but she enjoyed it.) You guys keep up the good work and I excited for the next video!
I agree ..I wonder how the body takes to get back to normal after delivery and how long it takes and especially the cervix and vaginal muscles...
This would be a great follow-up video! :)
@@wangariwairimu1st in my experience it takes a minimum of 6 weeks plus some regular light exercising your pelvic floor muscles. It can take longer depending on if there are any issues with the birth or if a cesarean has taken place. But with the other muscles, I’m not 100% sure. I’d like to know as well.
@@abbyduke9367 thank you for your reply... which exercises did you mean by the way
@@abbyduke9367 thank you for your reply... which exercises did you mean by the way
Can we at least say “thanks” to the preserved body in this video for helping to give us a great visual representation of what happens during pregnancy? 🙂
Yes, much appreciation to the person who donated her body to science. I was mind blown with the two aprons! So disembowelment isn’t as the movies depict of a never ending flow of spaghetti. I have given birth & now makes sense with the acid reflux, I had it bad & meanwhile old school grandma said that the baby had a full head of hair 🤔 Pregnancy was an amazing experience despite the spontaneous morning sickness out of nowhere vomiting on a sidewalk downtown 😅
The cadaver doesn't care about what you say.
@@Anacondextra1 It's so true, I've started coughing and will throw up out of nowhere, it's nuts.
But it's family may want other people to be appreciative. Class costs nothing. @@billbauer9795
Actually, this is one of the few 'myths' that is supported by science - I read that it has to do with the levels of a specific hormone that trigger muscle (sphincter) relaxation and is also likely involved in hair growth in the fetus'@@Anacondextra1
My wife had hyperemesis gravidarum, 😢 I wish this on no one, we were in and out of the hospital for months due to excessive vomiting. She lost a ton of weight and couldn't even bathe herself. 😅 Boy those were some scary times, thank God the baby came out healthy and she is fine now.
Yeesh!! Glad to hear everything worked out!
I had it too.
I'm so sorry your wife went through that, I'm grateful everyone is okay now.
I had it, too. It’s awful. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I’m glad your wife and child are ok.
Yeah I had it twice. It reeked havoc on my body. It took al least 5 years for my body to heal and 7 years for my mental state to go back to normal. It was horrendous.
All of this, because she is simple animal and the most important thing was to spread out the genes. Homo sapiens are so stupid and simple.
I REALLY DON'T THINK
MOTHERS GET ENOUGH
RESPECT OR APPRECIATION OR UNDERSTANDING IN THIS WORLD AND I THINK IN OUR INDUSTRY EVEN MORE.

Great shout out 🙌🏾 Right back at ya babe💕
I am pregnant with my first baby (only 5 weeks) and also a nurse, so I love seeing the anatomy of things but especially the amazing miracle of pregnancy! It's insane and terrifying, but I know will be worth all the trouble at the end. 🥰 Thank you!
Safe pregnancy mama❤️
Y'all are crazy
I'm invested. How is the pregnancy going?!
So cute!
Whatever you do….. don’t you dare 💉💉💉it. ☠️☠️☠️👹👹👹
My baby was SO HUGE inside there, from the very start; they had the due date wrong many many times. That baby is now 6'5" tall @ 21 years.
I feel your pain, I had a similar situation with my son. He turned 5 at the end of Feb and he is in age 7-8 clothes already! He eats us out of house and home. I have no idea how tall he will end up but he's my big puppy!
I can relate. When my son came out, my doctor said, "future football player". He's 6'6".
6'5 at 21 crazy
@@amberf2306, if you have records of your son's height, look at his 3 YO height measurement. Double that number; that's the adult height.
My nephew weighed 10 pound 15 ounces at birth. He's now 5'9". My son was born 6 weeks early and weighed 8 lbs 9 oz. He's 6'11" now.
Not only is it great for every mom to watch this, but every dad should too!! So many of them are so unempathetic to their pregnant partners.
I just sent this to my husband
I'm the stepmother to my husband's now-14-year-old son (we've been together since he was 2) and my husband was a bit apprehensive about having more kids because "babies are hard." My initial reaction was... probably not very empathetic. 😂 I will say about pregnancy for me the scariest thing for me is that fact that you really have no idea how it's going to go. There have been elite athletes who have almost died, and there have been obese smokers who have perfectly healthy pregnancies and deliveries. It's such a mixed bag of things that can go wrong!
THIS!!!!
@@Ad_InfernoThere’s an athlete who definitely died recently while in labor. Not almost. A lot of people die from childbirth (and even pregnancy) that are not spoken of in the news on a regular basis.
Goodness me, why do you even let such men in your life. You can make a choice you know?
Hence never ever ever question or reason a pregnant lady why she feels or behaves the way she does. Unless guys r willing to share her physical pain and discomfort by going through it practically which is not possible given the human body structure.

Also never having kids😂 after watching this...
Love this channel. It has made me respect, accept and appreciate my body❤❤
If she’s nuts then she’s abusive that’s not a good mother
It's important to have understanding & kindness for when people are going through things obviously...But pregnancy &/or being a mother isn't an excuse for abusive/toxic behavior ultimately, it's still unhealthy.
I've never been pregnant, and I can honestly say I have NO regrets. Hell, my body gets on my nerves and I've never even created a human being, so I take my hat off to alll of the mothers out there. This is why Mother's Day is a much bigger holiday than Father's Day.
Wait I thought we're all equal and stuff. So no, no it's not :D
OMG SAME. Periods already make me want to chuck my uterus. The thought of pregnancy makes me so uncomfortable on so many levels.
As someone who is going through their third pregnancy, there are some things that are great about being pregnant. But there are a lot of things that make pregnancy a pain in the ass
@@Rage-_-QuitActually yes, yes it is. Men are useless in this process. :D
@@n.c.picturesI felt exactly the same until I was 19-- I was seriously considering getting my tubes tied! Now I'm 22 years old and 5 1/2 months pregnant. No regrets. Yeah it's been awful at times with morning sickness, aches and pains etc., but I know it'll be worth it when our little girl is born. As I'm writing now, she's kicking me like no tomorrow 😂
I nursed a woman that had such severe HG that it induced MS like symptoms and changes in her brain. She had to terminate the pregnancy in an attempt to stop the rapid deterioration.
Sadly that didn't stop her symptoms and she died a few months later.
I never knew how dangerous pregnancy can be for some and although very rare, I have never forgotten that young girl.
Poor thing. 😢
there is no evidence that pregnancy triggers MS, she already had that before pregnancy.
How is that condition caused?
Following!
@@MzEllaful it's caused by pregnancy
Also, this was fascinating to watch and apply to personal experiences. I became pregnant when I had ovarian cancer, and the tumors grew along with my baby. I remember not being able to even breathe properly at about 30 weeks because the tumors were just being pushed wherever they could fit as my uterus grew. I went in to see the doctor and they admitted me immediately. The neonatal specialist said they were perplexed at how I was able to continue to carry with so much being squished around, and that my body was carrying the equivalent of 3 fetuses, but only one was in my uterus and the other two weren't, which makes for an entirely uncomfortable experience. After 20 to 25 weeks, even bumps in the road while riding in the car could at times be unbearable. In the end, the little one was worth it, and truly a little miracle.
WOW! 😮
OMG. That's incredible ! Really hats off to you for handling it. Curious to know, how did your body react to birth along with cancer ? Were you on cancer treatment along with pregnancy ? Either ways it would have been crazy for your body to cope with both. I hope you healed well. ✌️
isn't this similar to being pregnant with triplets? But with less payoff, I would assume
My grandfather donated his body after he died back in early March of this year, he suffered from rheumatoid arthritis for half of his life, and wanted people to learn about it. Even in death he was still giving to people, he truly was a great man. I miss him dearly. While he was alive, him and my grandmother watched over me while my parents were busy. He taught driver's ed and woodshop, and was even part of the city council later in life.
I'm sorry for your loss! He sounds like a great man ❤
@@Samantha-im8fu He was, thank you for your support!
Del?
Your grandpa sounds like a wonderful person. I'm sorry for your loss, and grateful that he donated his body.
Cheers to your grandpa! He gave, served, and educates! So cool.
I am currently 19 weeks pregnant with my first baby. You have no idea how the body changes. Not just physical but also mentally and emotionally. Pregnancy is such a hard journey. I didn’t know it would be this hard. Carrying a human being for 9-10 months is just overwhelming
Girl I'm on my 5th (18 weeks) and my uterus probably wants to jump in traffic at this point 😂
And then you wonder why we do this more than once. We can blame this wonderful hormone oxytocin that not only allows us to bond with the baby but also makes us temporarily forget everything we went through. 😂
I had an idea, which is why I skipped it. During my childbearing years I had a horrific fear of anything medical related, and I was also pretty ill (requiring multiple drugs each day). I could not have tolerated constantly being medically evaluated, the toll on my body, and potentially giving up any medications that I needed to live.
@@doctordarcy8385 Quitting medications is what worries me too, especially along with all the hormonal changes affecting a pregnant woman. Depending on the med, the woman would also have to give them up while breastfeeding.
@@kellymichelley It was not an option for me. I could not have gone without my medication. I could not even have blood drawn during those years -- I was too terrified. By the time I was 33, I ended up with severe endometriosis (Stage 4) and fibroids, so pregnancy was off the table anyway, (at least from a physiological standpoint). I have since aged out.
It's really strange feeling going on inside after delivery, because you kinda feel that all your organs drops down when the uterus starts shrinking back. Also it feels nice to deep breath again 😀
It's really great explanation why in the end of pregnancy (3rd trimester) we do whatever so slow and getting tired so quick 👍
Great thing I decided to never get pregnant, I'd probably fall in a panic attack if I'd be restrained from breathing deeply 😰
@@LovelyAngel. well, if you would fall into panic attack just because you breathe but it's hard to do it deeply because there's no space for your lungs to expand, then I can't imagine how you would go through delivery 😅
Omg what's the BEST though is after delivery when you finally have enough room to eat a whole meal and then some! Lmao I was so sad when I couldn't finish my plates. ..I definitely made up for it when I gave birth
@@katiep3027 All eating habits stayed the same for me. Usually people say eat for 2, but it's the reason why many women has to work hard to lose weight gained during pregnancy. Through entire pregnancy I gained 16kg (35lbs) and lost it in a month after delivery
Yes! I remember that organ dropping feeling. It was certainly a strange feeling.
Thank you for mentioning HG. When I was pregnant my doctors didn't know about it, and I was told it was in my head despite the fact that I was hospitalized for ketones and dehydration. I'm thankful that it's now recognized as a real medical condition so others can get the help they need in managing it.
I’m sorry that happened to you. Health professionals dismissing your condition because they don’t understand can feel isolating to suffer and it’s unfair. My nurses didn’t believe me on my first baby that my water broke because so many women urinate and think it’s labor. I felt frustrated about how they decided not to believe what I would tell them because I was on my first labor. It’s awful when they don’t believe what you tell them! I’m glad that people in medicine are still learning and figuring out more things based off what patients are reporting because I empathize knowing how it feels to be dismissed.
What is HG again???
@@thelifeofruth hyperemesis gravidarum, it's a condition where pregnancy hormones cause constant vomiting sometimes the entire pregnancy, resulting in issues like weight loss, ketosis, throat erosion, dehydration, and occasionally death (not as common anymore).
@@selinamularz9194 oh my goodness!! That sounds horrible! I’m 12 weeks pregnant now but this past weekend I had diarrhea all day Saturday! And Sunday in the middle of the night. And Nausea like crazy! And every time I ate anything my stomach would hurt… it was a nightmare!!! I can’t imagine going 9 months vomiting straight… I cried to my husband on Saturday…
I suffered from HG during my 2 pregnancies, but the 1st was worse. I spent most of my days at the hospital getting iv for dehydration 😂 tmi vomits=pee 😂 I would have to use diapers and shower frequently because of the vomiting 😢 sometimes I would eat just white rice and vomit 1 min later. Horrible!
I would love to learn the changes in the brain pregnancy brings. Like the different hormones that might get release during and after, how it affects the mood, the possible "maternal instinct" (which is probably more a "protection instinct", idk)...
In any way, I love your videos, how well explained they are and the amount of drawing references they bring (mmmm me love yellow guts)
Edit : typo
You also stop being able to remember things like names as easily (mom brain is real). This change can have effects for the rest of your life, too, not just right after pregnancy.
I find it interesting how that maternal instinct tends to last even after our children are full grown. It goes away in other mammals until they give birth again.
Same here! For literally the last three days, I have been in “nesting” mode. Just tons of energy! What’s going on? Total 180 from my good old lethargic and randomly sick 5 months. I asked myself “Is this the lowered hCg that he’s talking about? Does it suddenly make one feel like they have superpowers?” 😂
You lose it. After my brood (7) .... well I'm still looking for it !!
Yes, brain changes are interesting. Add weird dreams to the list.
Although I doubt it's something they can explain via anatomy.
I was so lucky out of all my 5 pregnancies ( twins included) I never experienced morning sickness 🎉
You probably eat healthy and don't have a lot of toxins in your body. In other countries morning sickness is called a detox.
HG survivor here. And I do mean survivor. One of the hallmarks is weight loss. I lost 45 lbs in the first 5 months. Debilitating, horrible. Couldnt even keep water in my system. IVs saved my life. So grateful to science that kept my daughter and I alive through a horrible pregnancy. That being said, my body was AMAZING, literally still sustained my child through minimal food and water.
I have immense respect for you and every other woman who went through HG... i was lucky enough to not have to go through it, but it was even terrible for me for the first 3 months. It was terrible and i actually worried if i should seek help at one point - so i cant even begin to imagine how you must have felt 😩❤️
Me too prenatal vitamins helps too, right? Threw up on delivery day.
My daughter lost 25 pounds during pregnancy. She gained nothing.
SAME!!!! I lost 20lbs.
ughhhh been there. Most awful time of my life!
You forgot pressure on the bladder! I literally had to "go" every hour in the 3rd trimester. 😂 Excellent work! Thank you for this during Mother's Day ❤️
I was going closer to every 40.. idk even know how many times I said "wait, Let me pee first" 😂
15 weeks pregnant and I have to pee every hour, cannot wait to have this baby
Especially when the little bundle of joy kicks you right there 😅
Good job pushing innocent sentient beings into a horrible already overpopulated world. 😊👍
Every hour? I go every hour too, I'm not pregnant 😂
My husband is speechless!! Now he can see why l had morning sickness up to 30 weeks.
What a Mother's body endures during pregnancy is like that of a super hero.
I'm a midwife. And I've had four of my own children. Pregnancy, birth and breastfeeding physiologies still never cease to amazing me.
I carried triplets to 34 weeks, all in separate sacs with nothing shared. It would be interesting to hear more about the extremes the body undergoes. Also, what happens after delivery/cesarean.
Hats off to you 😘 that could not have been easy.
Oh wow how amazing
WOW 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
👏 Can we have more evidence that we are designed? 🥳
Intricacies such as these don't arrive from a worm who decided to turn into a fish and crawl out of water.
Whoo! Praise Jesus, He is alive.
You are loved 💕
Congrats! I’m pregnant with fraternal twin boys right now. I’m currently 32 weeks 😊❤️ I’ll be 33 weeks on Saturday.
I’ve never understood pregnancy to this degree. I feel like I owe my wife an apology for all the havoc that occurs. Well Done and a great presentation.
It’s incredible!!
With all due respect... This video is just the tip of the iceberg.

@@larissaasay6957 Indeed it is!
The fuck should you apologize for biology 😂
I just had my second baby 5 days ago. Unlike the first time, this time around I had a really good birth and I still cannot believe that I walked out of the hospital the same day as if nothing ever happened. I am absolutely stunned that my body did that, still can’t wrap my head around it
This video absolutely blows my mind! I had six children, (all adults now) and I never fully comprehended. This gentleman has a fantastic way of presenting the information and I will absolutely pass it along. Thank you!
Hyperemesis Gravidarum survivor here 🙋🏻♀️ I Can honestly tell you, that I felt like I was at deaths door many times, during my last pregnancy 😮 To say that it was very hard, is an understatement.
Our daughter is “made” on Ondansetron, watermelon and Sun Lolly. I have not had a single bite of watermelon, since pregnacy. 😂 How I made it through, is beyound me. But my then 2 year old daughter and husband, kept me going.
I am so happy, to have 2 beautiful daughters now. Some women suffering from HG have to either terminate the pregnacy, or loose it. And they will never get to have a baby 😢 So I feel very blessed, to have my girls, after all that suffering.
One thing that has really changed, is my eating habits. When my husband is cooking meat, or bacon, I just about die 😂 The smell was so severe during pregnacy, and 7 years after, I still don’t eat the the things I used to, before getting pregnant.
Ugh!!! I found my people! Everybody thinks I exaggerate when I tell them how SICKKKK I was!!!!! I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. There were days I really didn’t think either me or my baby were gonna make it😅 yuck
Went thru HG with my 2yo baby girl & I’m 15 weeks going thru it even worse now! Thankfully my ob has agreed to tie/burn my tubes cuz it’s definitely been a down time, can’t work, been in the er 4x, been on at home iv/zofran pump! S/o to us mamas cuz pregnancy is no joke!! It’s crazy how some ppl could have 5+ kids with no issues 😮
Yesss it was the absolute worse ..makes me know for sure this is my last baby lol
Would you believe I actually got rid of one particular winter coat after birth because I threw up so many times when I was wearing it I associated it with my nausea. My mum ended up taking it and even years after having my baby I banned her from ever wearing it around me. It’s a nightmare that scars people in inexplicable ways
Good job pushing innocent sentient beings into a horrible already overpopulated world. 😊👍
It would be interesting to know how the body recovers postpartum. Loving this series 👌🏻
i miss mom
So incredible what the body does during pregnancy! I would love for you to talk about pregnancy complications like the vena cava syndrome, hypertension, pre-eclampsia, deep vain thrombosis, diabetes, placenta previa, ectopic pregnancies or miscarriages, just to name a few. I'm a nursing student and paramedic, so I'm especially interested in all emergency aspects with symptoms and their etiology. Keep up the great content 😊
I had hyperemesis gravidarum in both my pregnancies until the end. It was horrific and has firmly put me off having more children. Honestly though between that and now seeing this I understand why I still don't feel fully physically recovered even though my eldest is 5 and my youngest is 2.5. Imagine recovering from the stress to your body from this without the sickness, that alone would take ages, now add severe weight loss and not even being able to keep water down the entire time this was happening to you. Feel a bit more impressed with myself for even getting to the end of the day without a limb falling off now 😂
You are a warrior and Queen. Blessings to you and your family. I hope you, with time, fully recover!
Omg I had it with both my kids too which is why my oldest is 23 and youngest is almost 10 😂 it was Rough!! Especially working during the pregnancies!
Good job pushing innocent sentient beings into a horrible already overpopulated world. 😊👍

I'm currently 5 months pregnant with my first child and, of all the things there are to learn as a first-time pregnant person (which just adds to the exhaustion and brain fatigue caused by everything else), THIS is what I've been wanting to learn about, the most!!! Like, what's going on in my body?? It answered so many of my questions!! Thank you so much!!!! And thank you to the donor and donor's family for making these lessons possible. They're invaluable. ❤❤❤️
Yeah I'm not willing to put my body through *any* of this. To the women who do, thank you! 💝
I’m in my second trimester of my first pregnancy and honestly the morning sickness is brutal. I’m expecting my little girl September 4th. So excited😍.
Hey! My baby has the same due date as yours! Idk why they call it morning sickness because it's midnight and I'm puking now. I am so tired of being sick all the time. Stressing about losing my job, money that I'm losing out on, losing sleep, and not to mention on top of puking constantly I'm starting to get a bunch of back pain 😅😅😅 I've been only able to stomach Ensure/Boost and any solid food comes back up. I'm gonna he happy when it's August
I’m due sept 20!
The 4th of September is a wonderful day to be born, speaking from experience ^^ Best of luck to the both of you! :)
🎉❤ congratulations momma❤🎉
Thank you all. 😊 I'm excited.
I'm 35 in my 3rd pregnancy, and "morning sickness" has been different for each pregnancy. This time around, it's not every day. It's random. It likes to skip days and doesn't care if I've eaten. I am looking forward to my 15 weeks, when it went away the last two times. Good hand gestures in the video!
I’d love to see a video about the on-going effects in the body of having a pregnancy; the things that change permanently, for a smooth pregnancy and a troublesome one.
My fingers never went back to normal size lol. I can’t wear my wedding ring 4 years later!
I’m saving this for later so that my husband doesn’t just think I’m being dramatic when we have children.🤣 He loves educational videos. So thank you!
i've never wanted children and this video just reaffirmed my decision 😂 the body goes through so much trauma and the mother is not even treated well in society (ridiculous expectations for women to snap back to bodies before pregnancy, loss in identity replaced by motherhood, lack of love and help from the husband, not enough maternity leave, wages and job prospects affected by the pregnancy, etc.). no thanks 💀
Hey, can you go over the different pregnancy complications that can happen? I had pre-eclampsia and delivered at 34 weeks and had an emergency C- section. Can you also go over what a C-section does to the Uterus and the complications that come along with that? Also, my morning sickness was awful, I threw up every day for 4 months, and it stopped and then came back in my 3rd trimester. Being pregnant was the most wonderful yet weird experience I've ever been through.
I think they did a video about c-section last year. That video is what got me hooked on their channel.
Can you do a video on postpartum stuff too? Like how the body heals and what happens? Also a video on the mechanics of breastfeeding would be awesome
0:16 - "lets just say it may come with some uncomfortable consequences" lmao what?! excuse me sir but this is tne understatment of the year lol
I grew three new humans and can confirm everything described in this video (though my morning sickness wasn't much and I only remember it with my first). I loved being pregnant and most of my memories of it are positive (they were all about 2 decades ago, so it's hard to remember a lot) like being amused by watching the bump that was my baby's foot travel across my abdomen. But one strong not-so-good memory is how it was a challenge to roll over in bed in the third trimester with such a big belly. My babies were all 9 pounds at birth.
You should also discuss the negative aspects of it as well. People should think about what they could go through and be more informed before they make a decision to have kids.
Absolutely agree, all these people thinking it's all rainbow and sunshine could benefit from learning the rougher aspect of pregnancy as well.
This. So much this.
I’ve heard stories from a few ladies that almost died during childbirth! It really opened my eyes to what a significant event childbirth is on the body.
@@Kyenta, The only thing I liked about being pregnant was No Periods! I know some ladies still have them, but mine went dormant for 9 months. But the 6 wks of afterbirth time... not fun!
@@lrzr96absolutely! But because it’s such a common event, most people are desensitized to how risky it is! I am pregnant with my second, and I will have to have a cesarean section (not by choice) to reduce the risk of uterine tear during labor. My first baby required an emergency C-section because she was breech when I went into labor. That could have been deadly for the both of us. So now, I have to have C-sections. ANYWAY, that is a major surgery. And my husband’s boss will likely not approve paternal leave because “child birth is a normal part of life, and I didn’t take off when my wife had our kids 30+ years ago” 😑. So I will have the weekend to “recover” and then I will be on my own for the majority of the day to care for my toddler and newborn with a fresh 4 inch surgery wound. 🙄 Thank God, I have my parents who are retired who will be with me to help me. Because I don’t think I could do it without injuring myself. But not every woman has that option..
Really appreciated seeing the actual inside of the body. It really puts into perspective how much stretching and loving the body does to accommodate a fetus. Literally everything shift’s and expands…. Even the heart?!? Truly mind blowing!
I’ve never been pregnant, and never plan to be. But even as a woman, this info blows me away.
I was always fascinated with it as a child and now as an adult. Even after having my own 3 children, it is still amazing how the entire process works. It's truly a miracle that any baby and mom come through birth alive and intact. ❤
It definitely is ❤️🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thank modern medicine or birth would still be the leading cause of otherwise healthy women.

You should do a video of what happens to the body during the labor process. I mean, man, there must be a lot going on, and like, how amazing our body is! 🤯
Would love to see how pregnancy effects the skeletal system. And what is the effect postpartum.
Growing a tiny human is hard work and a miracle!
Bones and joints relax and shift around. It's insane.
Would love this too. Currently almost at third trimester myself and would love to get an insight on how my skeleton may change permanently!
Well I know this it does leave "scars" on Ur bones.probably the wrong word to use but it's the best I can come up with atm

Nice pic your a great grandma
@@richardpauly1635 thank you. I love being a Mamaw!
Wishing her a safe delivery ❤
@sweet hee-haw thank you so much!
I had HG each and every pregnancy. Thankfully after I had it confirmed with the first, the docs knew and kept an eye in it with my following pregnancies, and as soon as they were uncomfortable with my amount of puking...they jumped on treatment. Unfortunately, I still got hospitalized each time and ended up with picc lines and even a feeding tube with my 2nd pregnancy! Zofran is a life saver. Especially when I had my picc line and had to go around with an IV pole in public. Thankfully, people see that, and many volunteer to help. Which was. A godsend when my husband was deployed and I had a 2 yr old and a very difficult 2nd pregnancy.
I LOVED being pregnant BUT….. I was so so sick. But I still loved to feel her and bond with her. I do have ptsd from how nauseated I was. Growing a baby is not easy, even the smoothest pregnancy. It is amazing and awesome that we can experience! No matter how you have a baby its magical!
I have emetophobia and it's because of the nausea that comes with most pregnancies that i've never had a child although i love kids.
Mothers are saints and angels in my book.
You don't get ptsd from morning sickness
@@SK-ut6tw clearly you didn’t have hyperemesis gravidarum, and you clearly don’t know my story. So shut up.
@@mew19forever I also have Gastroparesis too. So that on top of hyperemesis gravidarum, it was not a pretty sight
@@SK-ut6tw no... you don't. but you can get it from severe HG. HG isn't morning sickness. . I almost died with my last child and six years later I'm still dealing with the after effects.if that pregnancy
I'm pregnant for the first time, 8 weeks, and oh boy, this is terrifying 😳
Please don’t be. It’s a beautiful thing. ❤️
Don’t be scared. Your body knows what to do. Take care of yourself and your body will take care of the baby.
Congratulations and all the best!
Your body, the female body, knows more. There's nothing to be scared. That's why we are called women. It is embedded in our DNA to give birth. Your body is now going into autopilot in that regard. You just need to eat healthy, do not stress, and live happy.
If you see a movie and it makes you cry, go for it. Sugars, at a minimum, gestational diabetes is real. Keep your baby's father close. Things will change for him also. Otherwise, have fun.
@@WaterDove is it?…
I loovee your channel! I'm currently pregnant with my first baby (conceived with and IUD 😮). I'm sure I've watched this vid before but it hits wwaayyy different now. Im trying to be as informed as possible. Im halfway through week 11 so I hope to GOD everyone is right about things getting a little better in T2.
I'm at 29 weeks with my first baby right now. I knew nothing about pregnancy at the start and I have learned so much about our incredible bodies during this. It's been one of the most bizarre but amazing things I've ever experienced. And I've still got a while to go! I learn something new about my body every day. Love this video!
That’s amazing, congratulations! Seriously though, you think you have a while to go but it’ll go so fast. Plus, baby could come early (mine did, she’s a preemie that was born at 36 weeks) or then again could come late. But it’s amazing feeling being a mum.
One of the most interesting things to me (Side note I do prenatal massage as a License massage therapist) is the release of a hormone called relaxin that gets the connective tissue ready in the pelvis for birth and usually releases during the end of the second trimester/ beginning of the third trimester. Birth and pregnancy is fascinating.
Wonder if that added to the hip discomfort that started for me as soon as I hit the 3rd trimester.
@@Pokedawn100 yesss very well could be why. I’m in my second trimester with my first but by week 6 I noticed I had hip pain that only got worse. By week 22 I saw a chiropractor for the first time and she said due to relaxin by sacrum illium joint in my hip has shifted upwards and my mid spine has gone to the right. This baby is messin me up 😂
@@ameliaarnold6815 thank goodness we bounce back....for the most part! Congratulations & best wishes!!
This is also released in the first trimester and reduces from 12 weeks - trust me, I had to look it up cause my muscles started aching after normal work outs.
You are right when you say there really aren’t enough adjectives to describe this phenomenon!! Right now to me is ASTOUNDING! To think I’ve gone through this process twice knowing now what didn’t know then is incredible. Thank you so much for this humbling experience.
Currently 20 weeks with my first and boy let me tell you that hyperemesis gravidarum KICKED MY ASS. My first trimester was AWFUL. I lost 5kgs and only manage to gain 3kgs back so far. The nausea and vomiting is still happening even now in my second trimester, but as awful as what it is and has been, I'm relieved and happy to know my baby girl is growing and as healthy as ever! Personally my pregnancy sucks, but it's all worth it for the little human growing inside of me ❤
God bless your baby and your pregnancy
@@andreasolis85 thank you 💕
Best wishes to you and your daughter.
I'm currently 27 weeks pregnant. My first trimester felt a bit like a never ending hangover. The only thing I would say could be improved in this video is showing more pregnant women who don't look obviously pregnant. The hardest part of the first trimester was I didn't look pregnant at all and didn't want to tell people until the risk of miscarriage was lower so a lot of these symptoms I had to try to hide especially at work.
Sadly, showing or not we all probably hide things to some degree because regardless what employers say or portray they usually aren't as thrilled that their employee is pregnant, as the employee is. It's wrong. It's discriminating, but they don't care....they try to find other ways to get around the law.
Currently 26 weeks pregnant and I feel you so much regarding having to hide the pregnancy during first trimester. Thankfully I felt comfortable enough to tell my manager early on and she gave me a lot of allowances with regards to working from home, but boy it was hard trying to hide all the morning sickness, food aversion, and extreme fatigue around Christmas and New Year time. Don't know how people keep doing it while going to work, you're a trooper!
I understand not looking pregnant ! I am 22w with my first and I can literally feel the baby inside of me growing and taking up space and I walk around feeling huge but even my doctor said I am not the big. Also my boyfriend and family has said I’m hardly showing at all and I’m just like wdym?!!! It’s discouraging when you feel it but others can’t see it so it’s almost like they lack sympathy for you…
Lol it’s funny that you say the first trimester felt like a never ending hangover because that’s how I found out I was pregnant with my 3rd child🤣 I went out for drinks on my bday but the hangover lasted a week so I thought something is very wrong🤔 I wish you and all these other ladies a happy/healthy pregnancy and safe delivery 🤍 and don’t worry about not showing! Baby is still growing, in due time you will be able to see that baby bump☺️ Remember we all carry different just cause your sis in law started showing at 10wks doesn’t mean you will. Don’t feel bad! 🤍
Omg, this really does feel like a never ending hangover (and you’re not even allowed a glass of Prosecco to ease up the feels). I am 8 weeks now, thankfully not vomiting, but the constant strong nausea, exhaustion even when not doing anything and also being so irritated by noises, smells, ugh!! Not so simple, and it’s still such a short term yet. Hope it will all be good and healthy.
I suffered from pelvic girdle pain (or symphysis pubis dysfunction) during my pregnancy and it was horrible. I don’t think my doctors understood what it was and the epidural didn’t help at all with that pain. Two years later, I still feel it occasionally. I’d love to see you talk about it, even if it’s just to bring awareness to it.
Omg I also had this for both my pregnancies. Both at the 5 month mark, I started having excruciating pelvic pain, like someone kicked me in the pelvis every time I walked, or raised a foot higher than 8 inches (up stairs, getting into a car, etc). It was horrendous.
You need to get some physical therapy or see a chiropractor!
Y'all might consider checking out pelvic physical therapy --it can really help with the pain, even later on after pregnancy. I've been doing it after my third child and I have so much less pain and feel a lot stronger.
I had this when walking, and every so often I would almost fall down. You can’t imagine the panic that ensued in everyone around me! I think it was less painful for me than it was for them, particularly in the later months!
Dealt with that with all 3 pregnancies and afterwards. Currently dealing with it now 11 days post delivery of 3rd baby. My doctor is going to refer me to a physical therapist after my 6 weeks, she did my last pregnancy but I only went to one session. Kids have messed up my pelvic floor and it just needs to be realigned. I also have hip instability because of it. Sleeping with a pillow between my legs and wearing and SI belt during the day helps and also doing bridges until I start therapy. You should definitely talk to your OB about getting a referral to a physical therapist if you can.
Never wanna experience any of this ever but it's still interesting to research the topic
Absolutely
Same here!! My 4 year old chihuahua terrier is my baby.💜💜
It is so refreshing to see, someone, especially, a man be so excited about pregnancy. It never ceases to amaze me how wonderfully we are made.
as a mother of 2 soon to be 3, i always amazed by my body and what it’s capable of! Thank you for recognizing the same as most men don’t get it!
fascinating video!! keep them coming
Wow that's incredible. I'm now 36 weeks and 4 days pregnant so just about full term. It definately feels like everything has shifted throughout my pregnancy. I have been fortunate enough not to have any morning sickness but have had acid reflux which is a horrid thing too experience. Thanks for your video.
Congratulations, hope all goes very well for you, I can relate to the acid reflux years later I still have issues with that.
The human body is mind blowing- absolutely beautiful ❤
I'd like to see the channel's take on conception, fertilization and the different phases of pregnancy, it never gets old

They have three videos (if I 'm not mistaken) dedicated to women's cycle on their channel. Also very interesting!☺
❤ such an amazing process ❤
As crazy or gross as it can be,
It is the greatest thing I had ever been through. All three of my children are a part of me forever. I will never love or care about anything else on this earth like them. It is the realist connection you can have with another human.
Each of my children came here with blood, sweat, and tears, but it was worth every second. It taught me so much about myself. I came out stronger each time emotionally and physically.
They are a gift from me to me.
And a gift that strengthens mine and my husband's relationship.
And they are the greatest people I ha e ever met. Sometimes buttholes but they still are amazing.
All by this crazy and intricate process.
😳
This is phenomenal! My children are grown and I now have grandchildren. I can't thank you enough for shedding the light on our awesomeness!
I remember thinking how out of control I was of my body while i was pregnant. The changes that happen to you are so automatic. I never had morning sickness but there was swelling and large veins showing up and you just temporarily turn into a machine for building a baby. So amazing.
I knew I was pregnant each time before any testing because all of a sudden I was covered in huge blood vessels, particularly on my chest area! Shocked me every time 😅.
That's a horrible way to put it, a machine?
It's horrible filling your body doesn't belong to you, you are out of control and al you have left to do till the rest of your life is just cope with it, you won't have it in control ever again, and that's horrendous

I almost died giving birth to my 8 year old.. code blue was called on me bc I lost 2 litters of blood so fast.. I still have complications from that birth..before that I was on bed rest for that pregnancy due to issues with bleeding. Thank you for covering this for us moms out there!
That is just terrifying and is one more reason I'm not having kids. I got some problem where I can't take basic blood tests at the doctor without having some kind of horrible episode where I feel like I'm dying and it takes me an hour to recover from. My body went into shock from blood loss and I fainted after someone pulled just 4 vials of blood from me and they called an ambulance on me when that happened. My doctor doesn't know why this happens to me other than maybe my body just can't handle it.
@@SilverStarFourthis is called vasovagal syncope, my husband has this issue. He is super sensitive to blood pressure changes in the brain, so blood draw does that immediately, even causing seizing. Lay down, FLAT, or even with your head low below your heart when at the phlebotomist, and also sniff an alcohol pad and hum or sing a tune for distraction, literally those things prevent him passing out. Good luck!

I know some people who are and are super fat. Since put body is a machine. If the machine is not healthy enough, it will not get pregnant because of the extra fat or hidden health issue. Some yeah, don't have the right eggs.

@@maryross1875 some people can’t help to be infertile. It could be a condition or something but it shouldn’t stop them from being a mum. As it’s said, adoption is an option. Just because one can’t have biological kids, doesn’t mean they can’t be a mum to a deserving child worthy of a loving home,
I used to be infertile. I was diagnosed with severe PCOS and had less than a 1% chance to get pregnant without aggressive medical intervention. Now I have no sign of PCOS and I am very fertile. The doctors are constantly asking me why my records have PCOS on my records when they no longer believe I have it. I learned a lot in my past ten years to reverse my condition. There is hope that things can and will change. There’s too much to share about healing infertility and multiple types of infertility by amping up all working parts of the reproductive system. However, a common thing that helps a lot is to heal your hormones through rich nutrition and reducing cortisol. Stress reduction exercise like yoga, dancing or weightlifting really did a lot overtime. Also, good sleep hygiene! The next thing is timing. Fresh and healthy sperm supply needs to happen as soon as you can tell you ovulate. As long as you have ovaries, open fallopian tubes and fertile sperm present, it’s almost impossible to not get pregnant but you have to learn and understand your body hormonally a lot too. I hope that whatever infertility you experience, that you can heal yourself and find this advice helpful. I always empathize and want to help those who carry the burden and grief of infertility.
This video explained in detail why after two children the need to have my gallbladder removed and why I'm now diagnosed with having a Hiatal Hernia through my Diaphragm.I love my children dearly❤Pregnancy truly did a number on my body.😢
I had HG my entire pregnancy in both pregnancies. It was the worst with my son and I had to get a pic line for meds and nutrients. It is so depressing, isolating and sad. Most people say you should be glad you can have a baby but it makes it difficult to get through the pregnancy. Glad I made it through!

Something that is also incredible to me is how recent studies about the processes of pregnancy and the hormones involved in some of the symptoms are. Says a lot about the recent focus on women’s biology and medicine, even for a process that is basically the basis of human life.
As someone considering pregnancy I would greatly appreciate a whole series on this topic. I feel like you guys are trustable qnd the visual aid is helpful. Also how does the fundus grow that tall?? Like good grief I never thought part of me would grow fast at all but apparently the fondus is having all the fun.
This was fantastic! Please do a delivery and post delivery video.
Thank you! Will do!
Yes, this! ❤
I never had morning sickness. I did feel super hungry always. I really enjoyed my pregnancy. I didnt feel pain or sick.
Just had my baby girl 8 months ago and this makes me even more appreciative that i was able to do so and endure it ❤🥺
I just had my second child this summer after 18 years. I had the first as a teen and wasn’t mature enough to understand or appreciate the process. This time around though… absolutely mind blown. ❤️
This is the best video I’ve seen on the topic thus far, as a first time being pregnant I am learning as much as I can about what’s happening to my body and this was so enlightening. Please continue with this series!
Wow,that was incredible to know,now I'm totally sure I don't wanna get pregnant.
As someone who had two life-threatening postpartum hemmhorages, I can confirm being pregnant and giving birth is absolutely wild and scary
I would love to hear more about this. I’m a first time mom and this is a big fear of mine
I lost half my blood when I birthed my first (2 year old) because my placenta didn’t detach from the wall properly. I’m now 4 weeks pregnant with my second and I’m terrified this is going to happen to me again. I’m even more terrified now I know that you’ve had this twice!!!!
@@The-C1arkeC1anwhat the doctor says?
@@asamicat8323 My OB says it’s no more likely or unlikely to happen a second time. Every birth is different so it’s a luck of the draw really :/
@@The-C1arkeC1an at least there are flew changes that it will happen twice so don't be too pessimistic, I feel your fear but nothing is written on stone. There are no possibilities to understand it before getting birth? It would prepare the patient and the hospital for better intervention.
Holding my 4 month old now and this video was a great learning experience ❤ I knew about most the organs getting moved around but had no idea it moved the heart around as well.
Hence never ever ever question or reason a pregnant lady why she feels or behaves the way she does. Unless guys r willing to share her physical pain and discomfort by going through it practically which is not possible given the human body structure.
So respect your partner and suck it up whatever u r going through bcz trust me she is going through things u can't even understand and process.
And also respect your mother even if she is nuts, she pushed u out for u to exist is good enough for u to value her😅❤
Do you realize that while the process is amazing that children don’t ask to be born and most people volunteer to do do it and some even carry and give birth as a job? You also can’t tell people how to feel towards their mothers because you don’t know their lives.
