Pandemic pregnancy: How to cope with a new normal in a time of uncertainty
Inspira Health
If you can count backwards, you know that babies born in the new year of 2021 were conceived during the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic and the economy have caused a predictable decline in birth rates. However, some couples remain optimistic about the future, and some have as much, if not more time to, well, be together, so let s just say babies are still being born.
If you just found out you re expecting or you re further along, you re counting down the days until delivery with all the typical joys and challenges of being pregnant along with the added stress of things like social distancing and daily news about surge rates or vaccine timelines. While we can t be sure when things will change, we can help by sharing what you need to know before your little one joins you in this new normal.
