Dapat ko bang iwasan ang mga taong nagbibigay sakin ng stress kahit buntis lalo na kong asawa o fam?

Oo talaga, kailangan mo ng peace of mind ngayon lalo na 8 weeks pa lang, ang stress ay tunay na nakakaapekto sa pregnancy, so it's okay to set boundaries kahit with family. A few of us moms have had to have hard conversations with our partners or parents during pregnancy, and honestly, it helped na nag-communicate kami clearly about what we need rather than just avoiding people entirely, kasi ang isolation ay nakakadown din. Best approach is na makipag-usap sa asawa mo ng maingay kung ano ang nakakasakit sa feelings mo, at kung kailangan mo ng space, tell him na, most partners naman ay responsive once naiintindihan nila. But if the stress is really taking a toll on your mental health, please check-in with your OB din, okay? You and baby deserve a calm environment. Sending you strength, mama, this phase is temporary!
