Episode 70
Friday, 19 December, 2025
Stress and Pregnancy: What It Does to Your Body—and How to Manage It Pregnancy can be a joyful time—but it can also be stressful, and that's completely normal. In this episode of MamaDoc BabyDoc, we talk about stress during pregnancy: what it is, how it affects your body, and how chronic stress can impact both you and your baby. We break down the science behind stress hormones, discuss common sources of stress for expecting parents, and explain when stress becomes something to pay attention to. Most importantly, we share practical, evidence-based ways to manage stress during pregnancy—simple tools you can actually use in your everyday life, even when you're busy or overwhelmed. Whether you're feeling anxious, stretched thin, or just trying to do everything "right," this episode is here to remind you that you're not alone—and that caring for your mental health is an essential part of caring for your pregnancy.
