About this episode

Cameron shares her experiences and challenges during weeks 12-15 of her pregnancy, focusing on physical and mental health symptoms.

In this episode, I detail my pregnancy symptoms during weeks 12-15, surviving the first trimester, and how I’m waiting patiently for the “honeymoon phase” to kick in! I share my continued struggles with nausea, headaches, and exhaustion, as well as new symptoms like acne, body changes, and really feeling the “pregnancy uglies” during this phase. I open up about some of the heightened anxiety and depression I’ve been feeling during this pregnancy and how I’m really trying to stick to my self-care routines, prioritize family time, and find joy through the process. Key Takeaway / Points: Physical symptoms: nausea, cold flashes, acne, insomnia, and headaches Coping with heightened anxiety and perinatal depression Why men could never handle pregnancy Learning to prioritize joy and self-care during the hard weeks A bump update, experiencing pelvic pain, and first potential baby kicks The importance of honest conversations around body image and mental health during pregnancy This episode is sponsored by Natural Cycles, the company behind the first FDA-cleared, hormone-free, and non-invasive birth control app that helps prevent or plan pregnancy naturally.
