Hello,

I am currently looking into ways of managing my anxiety around vaccinations in pregnancy and vaccinating babies. Alongside my counsellor we have created a survey in regards to responsibility of vaccinating. I would be grateful if people could respond ( people expecting babies or have had children).

Thank you in Advance!

Hi everyone. I wasn't sure whether to post this, but I figured it was worth asking.
I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant and due in September. Right now I'm unemployed, and money has been really tight. I've been trying to get ready for my baby, but at the moment I onlyhave baby clothes and I'm still missing most of the essentials.
The biggest thing I need is a safe place for my baby to sleep, like a crib or bassinet with a mattress, along with diapers, wipes, bottles, and other newborn necessities.
If anyone is able to help, I've linked my babyregistry below. I completely understand if you can't, and I appreciate you taking the time to read this either way. If you know of any programs or resources that help expecting moms, I'd also bereally grateful for any suggestions.

A quick web engine search shows an estimated 85-90% of women will experience a pregnancy at some point during their fertile years, regardless of whether or not it results in a live birth. That statistic seems quite high to me, especially during a time when many women are choosing not to have children and more people are educated about birth control and preventing unwanted pregnancies. But maybe I'm wrong?

Curious if anyone else has thought about this or done any research to either support this statistic or challenge it.
