    7 Crazy Misconceptions I Had About Pregnancy, Birth, and Babies

You need to know what your body is doing in order to be the best advocate for yourself. But, I didn't always know much about how things worked.

      What *is * that?
      Every month something happened with my body. And I wondered what it was. An infection? Was I just weird? Turns out? Ovulation. Pretty important time for making a baby.
