Our society has made our brains work in such a way that the only way to look attractive seems to be when our body looks great and our face looks good and so on. Take a moment to realize you are creating a human being from scratch, if that's not beautiful, I don't know what is!

Are you okay?! If it hurt, you might want to check in with the doctor to see if everything is okay. Regardless, I'm sure everything is with your baby 🙏

I’ve never seen a pregnant woman that wasn’t beautiful and glowing. I felt unattractive and huge at the time, but looking back at the pictures, I realized I looked pretty because I was pregnant. My body doesn’t look how it did before, but there is beauty and strength in being a mother. Bringing children into the world and raising them is an amazing thing so carry yourself with pride. I know it’s easier said than done and I’m still working on it myself. You’ll heal and feel like yourself again over time, a better version in my opinion. Our society puts a lot of pressure on us, but be confident mama and know you are treasured by those you love most, your little ones.

Get up go look in the mirror and say I’m a bad Bishh & I’m BEAUTIFUL I might not feel like it right now but I’m a great mom and a awesome person say it until mean it you got the mamas And I hope your ok from your fall
Heyyy ! First time mom here! Due December 9 so slowly but surely the time is coming for baby girls arrival. For the moms who had babies, when did you start prepping your body for delivery? I started do my stretches and getting things ready to soften my cervix. I’m stressing out about it since her dad has been missing since I told him I was pregnant.

What was your first sign of labour?

Right I need some advice/opinions!
My first daughter is nearly 4 and is desperate for a “real baby” and it’s all she talks about!
Myself and her dad were actually trying for another anyway and have recently found out we are expecting number 2 (only 5 weeks)
When are we telling the first born? She has just asked me if there is a baby in my tummy as I was putting her to bed and I just answered with “maybe one day” 🤣 but not sure how long I can wait!
We originally said we would wait until 12 weeks but feel like she’s going to catch on before then as already sick and very tired!
Note to add - as soon as she finds out everyone in the supermarket will know 🤣🤣

Today is my due date and really thought he would come early as my daughter came on her due date. I don’t know how many times I can deep clean the house, wash my hair and attempt to shave despite being unable to see my toes😅 I am really struggling with the not knowing when it’ll happen/worrying it won’t happen naturally. I think having a 2 year old changes things massively!! Has anyone had a sweep 40 weeks and been successful🫶🏼

I’ve got 4 weeks left yall ♥️ 4 weeks til we become a family of 4. My daughter is super excited, me on the other hand I am a nervous wreck, mainly trying to figure out a baby sitter because when I did the birthing class where I plan to deliver our newest addition they won’t allow anyone under 16 with me :/ which I understand but it kinda breaks my heart, to mommas who have went through it, how did yall handle it? I haven’t really left her for days at a time
