In this post, you can learn about the things that every pregnant lady experiences. Read ’em all to get prepared.

It’s pretty wet…everywhere.

C-Sections are not joke.

You may throw up.

“A lot of women throw up! I have a vomit phobia and was not aware of this until about a month before I was due. Luckily there are drugs you can take that help (I managed to avoid throwing up with a lot of drugs),” -[leasaur](https://www.reddit.com/user/leasaur/]

Your uterus isn’t quite done after childbirth.

Don’t expect it to be pretty.

“Your vagina is going to look like a nightmare after. Don’t look at it or touch it, put ice packs and medicine on it but don’t investigate. I repeat: DO NOT INVESTIGATE. You’ll just keep yourself up at night fretting over what happens if it never goes back to normal.” -[Iristhevirus217](https://www.reddit.com/user/Iristhevirus217/]

Some people may watch.

PPD is real.

“I had known about PPD and the ‘baby blues,’ but it was honestly sickening to me how sad I was after getting home from the hospital. I had wanted a baby for so long, finally had him, and then just hated it. I felt like ‘what did I do? Why did I do this?’ It was a shock.” –Kiwigirl80

You’ll have a whole month-long period following.

Things can go south.

“If you think getting a c-section is the ‘easy way out, it’s not. It’s major abdominal surgery, and your recovery time will be much longer. You are also more at risk for complications and infection. I spent two weeks in hospital after my first with a raging infection that could have prevented me from being able to have more children.” –PersonMcNugget

Husbands also have a bit of trouble.

Don’t be afraid of the drugs.

“There is no shame in using medications to make the process easier, especially epidurals. Natural birth is a beautiful thing, but not always the best thing. Be flexible! Things will come up that you didn’t anticipate.” –crocodiletears.

Complications can happen to some babies.

“I gave birth 3 days ago and I wish I had known how heart-wrenching it would feel to not be able to hold my baby.

It was supposed to be a low-risk delivery but little fellow got his shoulders stuck. About 7 hours later he had a seizure and was whisked to NICU where he remains until probably next week.” –abyhendosaurus

Birth itself is traumatic.

You’ll clot, a lot.

“That after birth you can pass large clots. When I say large I mean large. My first shower after a nurse found me crying in the shower because I thought I was dying because a baseball sized clot came out. She told me that was normal. It looked like I gave birth to a bloody jellyfish.” –starlaluna

The sweat is coming!

“After I got home, at least two or three nights later I would wake up (or whenever the baby woke up) dreanched in sweat. Like I felt I was out in the rain soaking wet.

I had to look it up. It would’ve been nice to know that our bodies dump all the extra water that we no longer need. I thought something was wrong with me.” –Wrenlet
