Theoretical knowledge is useful, of course, and all pregnant women in them are strong. Only in practice, everything often turns out to be different than you imagined. We present you a selection of controversial statements and beliefs of expectant mothers. When babies are born, women themselves remember how they thought before, with a smile.
“I am sure that I will not scream, because I am hardy and strong in spirit!”
Each person has his own pain threshold - someone higher, someone lower. Delivery itself also takes place in completely different ways, and their course is difficult to predict even for experienced doctors. Often, women who were shaking with horror give birth quickly, easily and relatively painlessly, and brave opponents of epidural anesthesia can not even endure the first contractions. How everything goes in your case, no one knows, so do not promise.
“Before giving birth, you will need to do makeup, manicure and hair - I should look great even in the delivery room!”
It is very, very important to look beautiful both in the prenatal and in the bathroom during an enema, and even on a gynecological chair, when the hospital shirt is pulled up to the very chin. Only in reality the pose in which they give birth and the process itself are different from the pictures from the Hollywood movie. But doctors need to monitor the opening of the cervix, so that they will not even pay attention to the shade of the woman’s lipstick. Nail polish and completely asked to wash. Obstetricians should see the patient’s nail color - the color of the nail plate can help diagnose the condition.
"Postpartum depression was invented by loafers who have too much free time."
Delivery is still stress for the body, which can cause unpredictable reactions. Denial of apathy, depression, bad mood can play a cruel joke - so you just drive the problems into yourself.

“I'm not going to splurge on useless toys, fashionable and impractical clothes - the baby needs mom's love and care more”
If it is impossible to argue with the second half of this statement, then the first will fall to pieces already during the first trip to the children's store. When the baby grows up and begins to enjoy brand new toys, even the most ardent supporter of saving will give up.
“I’ll never start saying“ we ate, ”lisp, chatting with everyone about the baby chair”
Before childbirth, every woman thinks that she will be completely different from other mothers with children. On walks, she plans to read, listen to audio books in English, during the decree she is seriously going to master psychology, tighten her knowledge of history, and learn to dance salsa. Maybe you will become a role model or will cause envy among all the mothers in the area. The truth is that during pregnancy, many people think that on maternity leave they will be engaged in self-development, but in the first year of motherhood, dreams become more prosaic.During this period, the woman just wants to get enough sleep, read something longer than the nursery rhymes and learn something more complicated than the labels from the baby formula.

“It’s easy to set a child’s regime, the main thing is not to be lazy
Moms who complain about sleepless nights are certainly to blame. They are just too lazy to set a child's regime, but they are not too lazy to fall asleep on the go and stumble upon walls. Of course, you can dream that you can easily accustom the crumb to a certain daily routine. When else to dream, if not during pregnancy?
