Didn't you ever wonder how a woman can carry a human being in her womb for nine months and how they manage to tolerate the pains of giving birth?..and at the very moment they saw their newborn child the pain suddenly disappears? I really think that these are miracles of motherhood..how about you? What do you think?

I agree with you. It's the most amazing thing one can go though! It's unelievable how a human can create another human. When I look at my daughter and think that I created her skin, eyes, the whole body -it just blows my mind. It's just too big to understand.

actually i wonder about it also. amazing how our feelings changer from pregnancy period to finally delivering the baby. you got this anticipation at the pit of your stomach waiting for the baby to come out, wondering how it would look like. then during the labor stage the pain will make u think u don't wanna get pregnant again. but after delivering the baby and seeing those tiny little hands, little feet, the face and hearing the cries you'll have this feeling of happiness, that you can't fathom, it'll make you cry. and come to think you really don't remember the pain of labor. it's really a miracle...

yes I do agree with you as I am going through such phase only. I am expecting my baby in the month of March end. I am desperately waiting for that great day when I will see my new born though I am little worried about those unbearable pains and all. But motherhood is a miracle and I am enjoying it like never before.

I completely agree. I had my little girl 15 months ago without pain medication and as soon as they gave her to me, I forgot all about it. I definately think these are miracles & thank goodness God gave us the ability to forget :)

The "miracle" of motherhood for me is that I love my son so much. While I was pregnant with him I had a LOT of unforseen health problems, had to be off work for 5 months, had so many things go wrong... and for a little bit I was worried that I would resent him for all of it. That worry just evaporated the moment I saw him. I had to have a C-section and my husband held him before I did, but I saw him there in his father's arms and I nearly burst with love for him. Seven months later I still feel that same feeling, every time I think of him. I keep his picture at my station at work, and all day I fidget thinking how I can't wait to get home to hug my little boy. That much love is a miracle for me, someone who could never imagine feeling that way, especially about a little creature that caused me so much pain.

It feels nothing short of a miracle. Be it a C-section or a normal birth, i think its more unbelievable when the baby is actually out. I just kept thinking how could this baby be inside me all these months? Its an amazing feeling and more amazing is the fact that the child knows the mother before the mother knows the child.
