New Moms Share Their First Thoughts After Giving Birth

Having a baby is a beautiful experience. But, let’s not pretend it’s all sunshine and rainbows! Giving birth can be an extremely traumatic and overwhelming experience. No two births are the same and everyone’s situation differs. The same goes when it comes to the feelings and emotions. Some mothers experience overwhelming joy whilst others get the baby blues. Here we have some first hand accounts where new moms share their first thoughts after giving birth. Take a look and always remember to be understanding towards, and not judgmental of, any new mother, or father.
