When you’re pregnant, one phrase you’ll hear about a million times is ‘It’s different for everyone.’ You’ll hear it when you ask your OB about symptoms, pain, contractions, energy levels, delivery experience… The list goes on and on. For someone like me who thrives on the expected and tries to maintain complete control, it was a phrase I found particularly frustrating. What do you mean you can’t tell me exactly how I’m going to feel and when?

Now, after having gone through it all and talking to fellow moms I can *somewhat agree that like snowflakes, no two pregnancies are exactly the same. But there are enough similarities that we can give moms-to-be a little more of a heads up and that’s what this page aims to do. Enjoy mamas!
