Multiple pregnancies occur when you are pregnant with more than one child at the same time. Twins are two babies carried in the same womb. Triplets are three babies born at the same time during one pregnancy. You can also carry three or more infants at once (high-order multiples). It usually carries higher hazards than a singleton pregnancy (carrying only one kid). Being pregnant with two infants at the same time is a lot of work, but the payoff is worth it. You may be thinking that if you are expecting several children, you will need to drastically change all your conceptions of pregnancy.

Just imagine the amount of joy and happiness once a pregnancy test confirms your pregnancy! Once you achieve motherhood your body undergoes a lot of physiological, psychological, and hormonal changes to prepare your body fit for the child’s initial growth. During pregnancy, the mothers-to-be might be concerned about a lot of things in their pregnancy-it might be about their health or maybe about the health of the child. There are some common pregnancy-related myths that one gets to know while she is pregnant.

After giving birth to the baby, and coming back to your home, the one and only thought that would twirl the mother’s mind would be about her baby. She would be thinking of ways to take care of her newborn, collecting all the information she needs to know, going through magazines and articles, and would be all ready to face her upcoming future. The first six weeks after childbirth are referred to as the postpartum phase. This is a happy time for all mothers, but it is also a time of adjustment and healing. You will bond with your baby and have a post-delivery visit with your doctor during these weeks.
