- Your body is adapting to provide a nurturing environment for your baby. Your uterus will grow, as will your breasts.
- Your emotions may be a bit wobbly, due to major changes in hormones.
- Your mind may be more distractible, and your sleep patterns may change.
- Your relationships with your spouse or partner, and with other family members and friends may change.
- You may find yourself thinking about the meaning and purpose of your life.
Jessie was truly delighted to find herself pregnant. Although this had not been planned, she and Tom, her boyfriend of three years, found themselves comfortable with the prospect of having a child. They had been hesitant about getting married, but this brought them closer with each other to the point that they were committed to tying the knot.
Jessie was surprised to find herself fretting in her sixth month about whether Tom was firm in his commitment, and worrying about gaining more weight than her doctor recommended. When she started having trouble falling asleep at night, and started waking frequently in a sweat with nightmares about being alone and abandoned, losing her teeth, and losing the baby, she sought the help of a counselor.
She was greatly relieved to learn that these are all common experiences of women during pregnancy. With the help of TWR she was able to clear her anxieties and worries and was sleeping normally within two weeks. Jessie was particularly grateful that she had the use of TWR at any time she needed it, and that she could even use it in public without anyone knowing she was de-stressing.
