Quotes by M. B Antevasin

As if new motherhood isnt hard enough, you begin the hardest and most challenging weeks of your life physically and emotionally exhausted. Even if you manage to leave the hospital without physical scars or emotional wounds, you are probably exhausted and unsure of what to do. And then you are either thrown into a world where you need to get used to being out of work and home alone, or you need to figure out how to go back to work and be a mom at the same time. Or like many women, you find some new combination of the two that has no resemblance to your former life.

Theres always this point in pregnancy when all of sudden you realize that there is this person inside of you, and somehow you are going to have to get them out.

They are not kidding when they say that mothers are strong women. We need to be strong in more ways than our children will ever know.
