8 Ways To Brush Off That Pregnancy Stress

Pregnancy and stress go hand in hand. A recent survey indicated that an expecting woman is 43% more stressed out than a non-expecting woman. Sometimes the stress can be really overwhelming and really hard to manage. Don’t worry we got your back, here are 8 ways to brush of that pregnancy stress.

1. Accept it Embrace It
There are certain things that you can’t control when you’re pregnant. It’s better that you come to terms with such things and embrace them. For example, you will gain weight when you’re pregnant, it's normal, it's natural and you can’t do anything about it. You can either sulk about gaining weight or accept it and come to terms with it.
P.S. Throw in some choco-chip ice cream that might help :)
