The Dreaded Missed Period

The Dreaded Missed Period

 

Have you ever realized you missed a period and had a moment of panic? We’ve all been there! Women sometimes miss their periods. It does happen from time to time. Our minds automatically go to the ‘I’m pregnant’ scenario, but that’s not always the case.

 

So, what do you do? You take a pregnancy test, just in case, but it’s negative. Now what? Check for other symptoms of pregnancy. Other symptoms of pregnancy include:

The "P" Bomb

The "P" Bomb

Have you heard the phrase “they just dropped a bomb”? It just refers to someone giving big news aka “a bomb” and it has such a profound impact it forever changes your lives, like the effects of a bomb.

That is how you might feel if your friend drops the “p” bomb. “I’m pregnant.”

 

This is huge news.

Your friend is likely feeling overwhelmed with the news of an unexpected pregnancy and it is understandable if you are feeling overwhelmed too.

Into the Unknown

First time pregnant

I don’t know about you, but the song from Frozen 2 “Into the unknown” gets stuck in my head a lot. Mostly because I have a daughter who loves the movie and sings the song over and over again, and a little because it’s just catchy.

As I listened to the words of the song, I couldn’t help but be reminded of being pregnant for the first time because that’s exactly how it felt, walking into the unknown.
