I understand waht you're saying but I'm trying to emphasize that the pregnancy is just as important/special/spiritual as motherhood but it is different. It should be regarded with the same respect and seriousness, if not MORE seriousness bc the baby isnt in the world yet & things can go horribly wrong if a woman is not diligent and careful, but every woman with a child will tell you how the moment they felt this inexplicable change was the moment they gave birth & held their baby for the first time. I dont think pregnancy and motherhood should be smushed together & then pregnancy is just lost as a moment in time, I think pregnancy should be regarded as almost more sacred bc you arent in the clear yet. thanks to social media actually, pregnancy has become much more highly regarded and talked about in far more depth and I think that is a very good thing to have a solid community specifically for pregnant women, not yet mothers. I think making pregnancy MORE different from motherhood and EXTRA special bc its when a woman is literally growing a life in her body (which is insane and amazing) would be better than just blending it together. and I think if it was more widely accepted as being this extra magical time, it would be easier to get more young people to respect it. many women who get abortions are terrified of being mothers (of course some are just irresponsible soulless assholes) - making pregnancy into motherhood is not going to sway them, but making pregnancy into this like superpower (which frankly, it is), would be a better tactic.
