In this episode of the She Sessions pod, Mariam gets real about the ups and downs of the first trimester of pregnancy—from the must-have prenatal vitamins to navigating maternity leave in Germany. But the heart of this chat? Her not-so-great experience with a gynecologist during her first pregnancy, and the lessons learned about why finding the right doctor (one who actually listens and communicates!) is so important for every mama-to-be.

Expect unfiltered mom talk, laughter, and practical advice on:

• How to pick a gynecologist you can trust (especially if you prefer English in Germany)
• Why you shouldn’t fall for “cryptic pregnancy” myths
• Real tips for handling nausea, heartburn, fatigue & all the glamorous first-trimester symptoms
• Sorting through overwhelming pregnancy advice online

If you’re expecting, planning to be, or just love real motherhood conversations, this one’s for you.
