So grateful 🥹❤️ #pregnantlife #pregnanttiktok

My husband and I have been together for almost 9 years, and only recently did we both feel — we’re ready ❤️ We want to become parents. P.S. I’m 8 months pregnant now… almost there! 🥹 When people talk about planning a pregnancy, the focus is often on ovulation, supplements, cutting things out… But what you really need to plan and talk about goes much deeper: 1. Do we want a child, or do we want to become parents? (Yes, there’s a difference) 2. What do we not want to repeat from our own childhoods? 3. How will we share roles? Who takes parental leave? Will you keep working? Who provides financially — and in what proportion? 4. What do we imagine daily life looking like with the three of us? Who cooks, who does night shifts, who keeps the home running? Will family help, or will we hire a nanny? 5. What are our non-negotiables in parenting? What does being a “good parent” mean to each of us? 6. How will we stay connected as a couple? How will we make time for our relationship and avoid falling into routine? 7. How can we prepare financially? (How much to save? Adjust income, expenses, investments?) We didn’t find answers to everything right away — and that’s okay. What matters most is that we started the conversation. Genuinely, openly, together 💛 What do you think is the most important thing to talk about before becoming parents? 👇🏼 #couplegoals #relationshipgoals #pregnancy

As a couple nearly 9 years in, who’ve spent 24/7 together (literally), and now waiting for our first baby 🤰🏼💍❤️ • You’ll argue — and probably not in the same way. He shuts down. I cry and want to talk right now. He says I overreact. I say he avoids everything. Neither of us is perfect — but we’re learning how to meet in the middle. Slowly. • We didn’t agree on the big stuff: how many kids (he’s wants 3, I want 2), how to invest (he loves risk, I want safety), or even where to live — he wants routine and simplicity in places like Dubai or Bali, I want culture and soul in Europe. • You’ll dream differently. We hit a point where we felt out of sync — so we spent a day making a vision board together (with a coach, but you can totally do it alone). It showed us how different we are now: he’s all about growth and risk, I crave home, calm, and love 👩‍🍼 We used to be in the same mindset — traveling full-time, building businesses. But I’ve started wanting something more traditional. • The butterflies fade — and that’s okay. It becomes something softer 🦋 Quieter. Less adrenaline, more intention. Rituals help us stay connected: no work on weekends, little getaways, phones off after 8pm. The magic’s still there — just in a different form. • Your partner can’t be everything. And as a woman, you need a Plan B (even if it sounds harsh). You can love, trust, and rely on him deeply — but you still need to be a whole, grown woman on your own. With your own income, your own voice, your own way to take care of yourself. Independence isn’t the opposite of love — it’s part of it. • You won’t love the same things. He’s all about golf, football, and gym life. I’m more into Pilates, filming content, and slow mornings with coffee. You don’t need to share hobbies to share a life. #couplegoals #relationshipgoals #longtermrelationship

This side of pregnancy isn't often shared, so if you're experiencing something similar, my heart is with you 🥹 #typ #pregnanttiktok #pregnant

I’m 8 months pregnant now — and these are the things that honestly freak me out 😱 • The first poop after birth is painful 💩 It can feel almost as scary as labor. Your pelvic floor is weak, everything’s swollen, maybe stitched. Some women say they avoided it for days just from fear. • If you take the epidural, you can’t feel your natural contractions — which might make it harder to push with your body 💉 More tearing can happen if you push too hard or too early, and that can make recovery longer. I still haven’t decided if I want one or not… but the fear of pain is very real. And I’m super sensitive. • I heard it takes 1 year to recover physically, 2 years mentally, and 3 years hormonally 🥺 That really hit me. Pregnancy isn’t just 9 months and done — it’s a full transformation, and it doesn’t stop at birth. • My boobs started leaking around 23 weeks — and now it’s happening more often 🍼 You’re “supposed” to start expressing and freezing colostrum, but I haven’t done it yet. Life’s been busy, and now I’m stressed I’m missing the window. Still figuring it out. • Some foods are supposed to help prep your body for labor — like dates, pineapples and almonds 🍍(Any moms tried this? What else should I be eating?) 👇🏼 What scared you the most during pregnancy? Share your experience 👩‍🍼 #pregnant #couplegoal #pregancytiktok
