FIRST TRIMESTER
Say what?
Discovering that you’re pregnant is a life-changing experience for every woman, as these celebrity mums can attest… “I was lucky that both pregnancies were good; I didn’t have mood swings or sickness. I got tired like everybody else, but thank goodness I was able to continue with my work – I really feel for women who have acute sickness.”

“It was so amazing, and even though it’s a lot to handle emotionally, I loved watching my body go through all these changes and feeling my baby kick more and more. It reminded me every day what a miracle motherhood is.”

“I had a relaxed approach to pregnancy – I took tablets for morning sickness and heartburn and they made my life so much better. Women can be so hard on themselves. I think it’s okay to get a little bit of help.” VOGUE WILLIAMS, TV PRESENTER AND MODEL, AND MOTHER TO THEODORE AND GIGI MARGAUX 22 | The Ultimate Baby Book 2021
