The first doctor’s visit is a special moment for the mother, so try to be there with her. Your presence provides reassurance and emotional support.
- Be patient and listen to her feelings without minimizing them or judgment, so she doesn’t get frustrated.
- Be flexible and supportive of her changing food preferences, even the odd ones.
- Help her with cooking, especially if nausea makes it difficult for her.
Your emotional and moral support builds emotional closeness and eases the journey for both of you.
