Motherhood

Portrait of beautiful young Asian mother kissing her infant newborn baby in a white bed

The birth of a woman's first baby can be totally joyful as well as challenging. I felt over the moon when I got pregnant. It was a beautiful experience with frustrating days and sleeplessness. Motherhood is a special bond that you have with someone that no one can take away from you and I feel that bond with my daughter. From the very first time. I felt my baby kick around my stomach, after the third month, and when I heard my baby cry first time, that was a priceless moment in my life.

Being a mother is an amazing but difficult journey.
