Pregnant in a Pandemic
This blog says a lot about the pandemic and how it affects parents to be. It highlights the feelings that would run through the mind of any mom getting pregnant in the current state of the world, and the difficulties with it. It is important that historians can look back and understand the feelings that are going through our mind and how we chose to voice those through writing. A quote that resonated with me in this blog was; “It’s hard not having my husband by my side as I watch our precious miracle wiggle and kick on the ultrasound monitor. To feel robbed of the magical experience we had with our first two. They allowed me to FaceTime him after the exam so that he too could see our healthy baby boy, but it simply didn’t make up for the empty space beside me where he rightfully should have been.” -

Pregnant in a Pandemic
This object is a webpage from the Mass General Hospital website. This is the Obstetrics and Gynecology page. It is an update for all their patients. The title of this article is “Mass General Remains Safe, Ready for Expectant Families During COVID-19". It was uploaded in May of 2020. I choose to read this because I am planning to deliver my baby in February at Mass General, which will be mostly likely still during this pandemic. This article highlights the precautions being taken during Pandemic for mothers delivering at Mass General.
