On April 30, 2010 the well-known actress, a star of series "Secrecy of the investigation" and "The master and Margarita", the leading actress of Lensovet Theatre, Anna Kovalchuk gave birth to the son. In July we phoned to Anna, and she told about the pregnancy, childbirth, son Dobryn, the daughter Gold, about daily cares and plans for the future.
Anna, tell, please, about day when you learned about pregnancy? How it was?
We came back from the South. I made the test and in spite of the fact that it showed nothing, took it with myself. When arrived home – looked once again, saw the second stripe and understood that there was a miracle which we with the husband waited some months. And, frankly speaking, already started to worry that pregnancy doesn't come in any way.
You conducted what way of life during pregnancy? How actively worked, went to have a rest?
I went to have a rest to Finland by the car. Tried to conduct an active way of life. But my kid persistently dictated to me that especially активничать it is not necessary. I very quickly was tired, was compelled to be at home. Seldom went shopping, because when came to do shopping, to me at once it became stuffy, heavy, it would be desirable to sit down and not to move. Therefore I decided that the most part of time I will spend at home. Sometimes we left on a visit to friends, were charged from communication with them by positive power.
Than your condition differed from the first pregnancy?
Pregnancy were absolutely different. And children turned out different. The first pregnancy passed very quickly, literally on the run. I was very happy that the daughter in a tummy, all the time with me. In the second time I would like to see the kid as soon as possible. Because of unimportant health, childbirth I looked forward.
You got ready for childbirth, or how to skilled mother, it wasn't necessary for you and you completely relied on the knowledge?
Yes, I relied on the knowledge, on the nature, specially for childbirth didn't prepare and, maybe, in vain. At the time of delivery I incorrectly breathed, and the midwife had to explain me all subtleties of breath in process. I do not know, whether I forgot partially, how it is necessary to breathe, whether and in first labor did it incorrectly. During pregnancy I read special books, magazines, remembered stages of childbirth. But now it is sure that occupations at school for pregnant women should be visited surely.
As all mothers you worry about health of the children. Tell, how you learned about stem cells of an umbilical blood and why made the decision of them to keep.
To me was told about it by my schoolmate. The first time about such service I heard from it. Then began to read about stem cells in magazines. My colleague on theater kept cells of the child, and told me that it is very necessary procedure. I with pleasure used this service.
