Motherhood is not an easy task.Going through all the pains is really pretty hard.But,what's really rewarding is the joy of motherhood.the feeling of completeness within. How do you feel to have a baby?

Whew! I love being a mom although it's not an easy task. This is just one side of the superwoman syndrome in all of us women but this one is life changing. My children gives me joy and unconditional love. When they smile my heart melts, in their eyes it says I am the only one . I love the soft and warm feel of their skin and their baby breath. I cherish every moment and I thank God for them.

Hmmmm Giabelle, I could tangibly smell the baby breath and feel the soft feel of a baby's skin! now, you're making me jealous of all those mothers with new babies. It was a very long time ago (19 years!) since I have held a baby, my baby who was just a mere 4lbs then, staying in the incubator for a week and looking freakish because of his thinness! But now my boy is man, raring to have a girl of his own!

motherhood is not easy..you need to give a lot of yourself..in short its SACRIFICE, sacrificing in the most positive way a woman could sacrifice herself..

Its an new daventure for me wher i found of different and interesting things about the child and the way how they learn all the things line by line by seeing us and the way they suck the milk though they are not trained and the feelings of mother are also different at that moment and it is great thing and i have no excaxt words to describe it,and i agree with yoiu in every point you mentioned.

It's hard to put into words how it feels. I think I wake up now looking forward to what my son will do next, before my life was just a series of blah days at a blah job.

Oh lovboop24, it's the most wonderful feeling to have a baby, specially since I waited 8 long years to have a son, and the last one at that coz right after I gave birth, they did a hysterectomy. But the experiences I have undergone I am fond of retelling my friends and new acquaintances so that they, too, will learn to appreciate their being a mother. It was a wonderful experience to watch a human life grow under your care and a great responsibility. Motherhood is tending to one's child or children and being able to survive and imbibe good moral values, good education, for them to become honorable members of the society in which they live, for them to be God-fearing. this last one has been my greatest resolve, to pass on to my son the kind of faith that I have with God, and for him to be a good father and husband when he begins his own family. That will be my greatest achievement as a mother.

having a baby made me feel complete. i got married at the age of 37 by standard it was already late. many of my friends told me that i can no longer bear a child. truth is i had a little fear what it my friends were right and i couldn't have a baby. but i did, a month after i got married i was positive. i'm going to have a baby. of course i was so happy i couldn't wait for it to come out nine months seemed too long. after i gave birth when i saw my baby i couldn't stop my tears. i was so happy. now i've 3 kids i douln't be happier.
