for me being a true woman is about giving birth.. its not easy for me to gave birth to my two children, i have to undergo to cesarian method. but when i see my baby, all the pains disappear, all i know is im already a mother at that time. for you what can you say about being a true woman?

I agree with you. Giving birth may not be easy specialy if we have to undergo a ceasarian operation. However, despite all the sacrifices and hardships, it is worth when we see our child being born. It makes us complete!

Congratulation :) Now I'm still in 8th months pregnancy. And I can feel too that being a mother is the special one. And I hope I can do normal birth but it depends on the situation too later. Well new mom ... :)

I am a mother of three. I don't feel however that a woman is not a woman until she gives birth. Not every woman wants to be a mom. My definition of womanhood is knowing who you are and what you want out of life. A woman is someone who does not define herself by what her husband or significant other does.

I don't think being a true woman equals birthing a child really. But I do know how you feel about bringing a child into this world can make you feel that way. I have been pregnant several times and have miscarried several times, I have my daughter out of all of that pain. I think that the love I feel for her does make the pain disappear. I think having the ability to love someone so selflessly is what makes you a true woman and I have done that with my child.

Yes, I'm so happy to be a mother 6 weeks ago. Nothing can compare with that happiness. I just have the first boy, and I don't know where is love come from, but so much of love. Giving birth is one part of being a true woman, being a mother and good mother is another part of being a true woman.
