How does pregnancy affect the singing voice? E.g. will it become easier for me to sing higher or lower as pregnancy progresses?
Thanks!

Hi, Scarlett! I've asked many women about their experience singing during pregnancy, and everyone is different! Some were not affected at all. Others had a harder time with breath support. Others experienced allergies/postnasal drip that affected their singing. And some did experience loss of range or altered range that took up to several months postpartum to normalize.
Unfortunately, all of this is anecdotal evidence. My advice is to respect any signals your voice/body might give you, and be patient with any changes that may come! Wishing you well, and feel free to update here with any symptoms or changes you experience.
