But about 1% of unsuccessful births, congenital anomalies and various terrible consequences will trumpet everywhere publicly. And, more often having embellished more than half.
During pregnancy, concentrate on good. Believe in yourself and in the strength of your body. For example, pregnant women fall quite often due to a change in the center of gravity, but this does not affect the development of the inside of the fetus. It is reliably protected by the amniotic fluid and the tissues of the uterus. But because of the constant experiences and fears of a woman, a baby can develop anxiety, so you need to try to smile more, enjoy your kid, communicate with him.
Much less react to negative stimuli. Put mentally the shutter between them and your psyche. Let it be an impenetrable wall. For example, act like this. Nausea - and fine! This means that the baby is developing, and the hormonal background of the body is changing! Are you suffering from constipation? Well - it's all temporary, because then she and pregnancy, so that sooner or later it will end safely! Have you fallen? Rise and walk on with the belief that everything will be fine for both of you.

Pray to the Blessed Virgin Mary - she is considered a defender of women and babies. Whoever believes this will come true. God is merciful to children, and if you sincerely ask him, he will give what you ask.
Do not read the terrible stories about childbirth - everything will be different for you. Any pregnancy is strictly individual. If even something went wrong during childbirth, this does not mean that the same scenario is waiting for you. Do not admit the negative, avoid it, collect only important, useful information about pregnancy and childbirth, radiate a positive for your future baby and yourself.
