Answer:

If a friend of my was pregnant and second guessing herself. I would tell her that having a baby is like a mini you.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's scientifically proven that pregnancy helps with less chance of any cancer also the hormonal shifts that occur during pregnancy and breastfeeding also protect against ovarian and endometrial cancer.

The results shows that people who have children are happier and have greater satisfaction and emotional well-being than those without children.

They might suffer but they will also feel a warm feeling inside them. They will feel a sense of excitement knowing they will born a living being to the earth who they get to teach and protect. They can treasure that moments and give birth to a angel form of a child.

There can be many ups and downs in pregnancy but there will be people around to help her and guide her.
