About the event
WHY DID NOBODY TELL ME THIS COULD HAPPEN?!― This is not the thought you want to be having when you’re frantically Googling whether your pregnancy symptom is normal or an emergency.
During this webinar, Nancy Redd will share some of the things she writes about in her new book: Did you know that during pregnancy: your nose can change size and shape? Your fingernails, far from growing long and strong, can crack or fall off? You can completely (temporarily) lose your sense of smell? That 5% of women grow a third boob? More seriously, that 25-50% percent of the partners of women with postpartum depression develop it themselves, or that 20% of pregnancies end in miscarriage?
Join Nancy Redd as she uses her trademark warmth, humor, and candor to tackle embarrassing, confusing, and less-widely discussed issues that many pregnant women face. Redd will offer practical tips and techniques to ease even the strangest problems, helping to dispel panic and shame, and provide women with her many resources for pregnancy.
