DID YOU KNOW?
𤰠Your baby can recognize your voice before birth. By the third trimester, your baby can hear and become familiar with sounds, including your voice. Those little conversations, songs, and bedtime stories arenāt going unheard!
š« Your heart works harder during pregnancy.
Blood volume increases significantly during pregnancy, meaning your heart has to pump more blood to support both you and your growing baby.
Pregnancy hormones affect your entire body, not just your uterus. Hormones like relaxin help prepare your pelvis and body for birth, but they can also affect your joints and ligaments, which is one reason aches, pelvic pressure, and changes in mobility can happen during pregnancy.
Pregnancy is an incredible process of adaptation. Your body is doing so much more than growing a baby!
