The experience of pregnancy in the COVID-19 pandemic

The experience of pregnancy in the Pandemic was an event outside of the ordinary and common.

It was a tense, solitary, and ambiguous period, which demanded a lot from the mental health of some participants, but to others, brought advantages that would not have been possible in different times.
