When you're pregnant your womb is the universe your child experiences. Make sure it's a good one. Stressful events during pregnancy bathe your child in cortisol and adrenaline and prime him for a life full of stressors.
Take care of your mental health. Your neurochemistry imprints on your baby. If you are struggling with anxiety or depression in your pregnancy, your baby will inherit your neurochemistry and be more likely to develop these illnesses later on.
But it goes further than this. Trauma and severe stress that we experience in life impacts our genes. Including the genes in our eggs. Children of mothers who experience trauma even before becoming pregnant are impacted by your trauma.
Even more, let's say your grandmother was pregnant with your mother when she experienced a traumatic event, be it war, violence, loss, whatever. This not only affects her own genes, but it affects her eggs, her baby girl, AND the baby girl's eggs.
This is why elites are so hellbent on creating a state of panic and trauma at least once a generation. The effects ripple through lifetimes.

In short, what you experience, your baby will experience to some degree whether good or bad. You are molding your child's universe, make it a good one. It is okay to disconnect from negative people, communities filled with drama, worrisome news, and stressful politics. It is okay to keep your circle small and serene. Literally, let the men handle the rest.

I have yarn coming out of my ears, a strict budget, and a baby on the way, so I do what my foremothers did and made booties instead of buying them for 5x the price from Target. They are so tiny and cute. 🥺

If you've always wanted to pick up a constructive hobby (which I highly recommend if you don't have one) but you don't think you can do it, try crochet. Infinitely easier than knitting, it is relaxing, helps quiet the mind, will help you unplug from the mental noise of social media, and it is something you can do anywhere. I bring projects with me when I take the kids to the park often.

Best of all it can be started with minimal overhead cost so it's a small investment to just give it a try. It is a marketable skill. Maybe you won't be selling $300 custom afghans, but it is something you can do to clothe your family or provide to others, especially in a hypothetical collampse scenario, or simply if you wish to consume less and barter goods with like-minded folk.
