Only a pregnant woman can understand the pain and hardship that another pregnant woman undergoes. But the rest of us can only witness the struggles of an expecting mother and a mother with a toddler and how they survive each day through absolute chaos. They experience frequent mood swings, cravings for weird combinations of edibles in the middle of the night, nausea, back pain, knee pain and whatnot.
