The most common question women are asked during pregnancy is 'any baby name ideas' quickly followed by 'how big is it?' The poll of 2,000 mums revealed the other top queries are 'where can you buy maternity clothes' and 'how much weight should you put on during pregnancy?'
And while mums-to-be have traditionally turned to their own mother for advice, 78% now say the internet is their first port of call for help. Other common searches include 'what vitamins and minerals are important to consume during pregnancy?', 'how long does morning sickness last?' and 'how much folic acid do you need?' The study, commissioned by Vitabiotics Pregnacare vitamins, also found the typical mum-to-be will ask four different questions every day while they're expecting - more than 1,000 in total. But worryingly, 78% said they have received conflicting answers, with 15 per cent saying the advice was 'extremely different'.
