From the wild surprise that brings tears of joy to a gradual, somewhat anxious realization that things are going to change, pregnancy is a roller-coaster of emotions, expectations, and the promise of a new life.

And, of course, when you break this fantastic news to family and friends, you are greeted with love, laughter, happiness, and-the one thing you can't stop, no matter what-a flood of "good" advice. For first-time parents, however, this can easily become an overwhelming experience that leaves them clueless and confused.

Pregnancy shouldn't be a storm of uncertainty, stress, and fear-it's a sacred experience with the potential to change your life in profound ways.
