      Amy, thank you so so much! Some of the episodes we have planned for the next couple weeks include a Covid in Pregnancy episode and a VLOG on "what I wish I knew about the first trimester" which I think covers manyyy of those less glamorous things you alluded to! Anything super specific you want me to make sure we cover?

    Hello I have been so lost in information, and am pretty over my head. Y’all’s videos have helped so much. I would love to hear more from the first time fathers perspective like this one but longer. I have been reading and watching videos and tend to stress myself out by thinking about all the info and how I want every single thing to be perfect for my partner, it keeps me up at night and today I even had a nervous breakdown (my first ever) I don’t want to add stress to my partner so I haven’t voiced much on these concerns.

      Hi Sofia. It is not normal for pregnancy to cause severe headaches, though some people with migraines do find they increase in the first trimester. Pregnant women also can get more easily dehydrated leading to some mild headaches. But if you are having new onset severe headaches you should absolutely talk to you doctor!!
