41% of moms said pregnancy didn’t go as planned, despite 39% creating a game plan. The survey of 2,000 mothers found that 28% believed postpartum was harder than pregnancy. 59% wish their doctors had given them more information about what could happen to their bodies after giving birth. 42% opted to breast feed babies at least some of the time. “It’s not uncommon to feel like you’re alone when you’ve entered the unfamiliar terrain of new motherhood,” Wendy Wisner of Motherlove said. “Many new moms need support with breastfeeding, and they shouldn’t hesitate to reach out for it.” (swnsdigital)
