For first-time mothers, when the time comes, they tend to experience several unknowns too. Until then, it was all hearsay, read, and had gathered information theoretically. Experiencing it all can be a different experience. There are some general challenges that every mother-to-be will have to undergo, but then every individual is different and may have unique concerns about their journey of pregnancy.
