Motherhood is full of beautiful and fascinating moments from the beginning. When you realize all that your body is capable of and the wonder it is to make way for a new life, everything becomes even more impressive.
And precisely because since its inception, motherhood is an experience like no other, I share with you the 11 most incredible moments of pregnancy and childbirth .
When you find out that you are pregnant
Definitely one of the most exciting, because it is the moment in which you realize that a new, unknown and exciting adventure is about to begin and that from this moment nothing in your life will ever be the same. Knowing that a new life is brewing in you is definitely one of the most incredible moments.
When you see it on the ultrasound for the first time
If the news of knowing that we are pregnant excites us and can fill us with many feelings, when the day of the first ultrasound arrives and in which you see your baby for the first time in your life , it is easy to be speechless. Seeing him in those pictures makes the experience feel even more real.
When you share the news with your loved ones
Another of the most incredible moments during pregnancy is when we break the news to our family, friends and loved ones. Sharing the excitement, surprise and joy that a pregnancy brings makes all those feelings multiply.
When they tell you the sex
Although there are some families who decide to wait until their baby is born, the day you know the sex of the baby you are expecting, the emotions arrive and without a doubt, your imagination begins to fly, thinking of that little girl or little one who will soon reach her lives .
When you feel their first kicks
One of the most beautiful moments and that most excites us in pregnancy is when we feel her kicks or movements for the first time . Perhaps the first few times we are not totally sure that this movement we feel is our baby, but when we already know for sure, it is wonderful.
When you talk to your belly and your baby “responds” to you
Talking with your baby when he is in the tummy is one of the most tender and intimate moments you can have with him. And when you talk to him and he moves like he’s responding to you , it’s definitely an amazing feeling.
When you choose his name and start calling him by him
Choosing a baby’s name is something that for some mothers and fathers takes time and a lot of thought. But once you choose one, and start calling him by him, you feel how love continues to grow and you get to know him better every day .
When you buy your first clothes
I don’t know if they all like parents, but the first time you go shopping thinking about bringing something for your baby, it is a very special moment. Choosing between everything you look at and buying her first clothes is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful sensations we can experience while we wait for our baby to arrive.
When you hear her cry after birth
The big day is here! And after a long wait, your baby is born. And then, you hear for the first time that little voice that cries , and you can feel your whole heart tremble and a feeling of joy and nerves goes through your body at the same time.
When you look at him for the first time
And then you look at him: small, fragile and defenseless. Perfect because it is a part of you, that your body had the ability to gestate during your pregnancy and that now it has come into your life to change it completely, with that pair of eyes in which you could lose yourself all day .
When you take him in your arms for the first time
Finally, one of the most incredible moments you live during labor and after pregnancy is when you take your baby in your arms for the first time. And there you understand, that the adventure begins and that “mom” is now one of the most important and wonderful parts of your life.
