Expectant mums worried about stretchmarks or having sex?

Its reported that a study compiled by Google data scientist, Seth Stephens-Davidowitz, for The New York Times revealed that based on their most common Google searches, English, American and Australian women have some similar body priorities but the primary concern of newly pregnant women in 20 countries is ‘how have sex.’ According to the data, the first things women in the U.S. want to know when they fall pregnant are ‘how to prevent stretch marks’ and ‘how to lose weight’, The Mail online reported that: “The top five concerns, in order of popularity for women in the U.S. according to the data are: ‘Prevent stretch marks, lose weight, have sex, avoid stretch marks and stay fit.’ This order was very similar in Britain and Australia. Absent from these top five concerns, but cropping up in other countries are ‘take care’ in India, ‘stay healthy’ in Nigeria, and ‘stop vomiting’ in South Africa.” “As for the Google search: ‘Can pregnant women…?’ Its food and drink related questions which top almost every list. But the food types vary. American and British women query the safety of shrimp and prawns, Australians wonder whether they can eat ‘cream cheese’, Indians search ‘pizza’, Singaporeans search ‘green tea’, Mexicans search ‘coffee’ and oddly, Nigerians search ‘cold water. “Surprisingly, in every country examined, the most common dream people Google is overwhelmingly: ‘I dreamed I was pregnant’, after ‘having babies, cheating on a partner, killing someone, dying, and winning the lottery”
