Two of my friends are giving birth this summer, they are both excited and anxious to start motherhood. I’m a mom and its intense in a profound way.
Makes me think about the article I read on shrinking brain size during pregnancy in CBC news on May 2, 2014. Quite unnerving on the fact that the brain size decreases 8% and bounces back near normal, but not the same size about 6 months after birth.
I could just imagine the sacrifices our mom’s had and now us as mom’s to endure all of this for our child. Nevertheless, I have survived, still am surviving and loving every minute of it 🙂
I hope the mother’s body shrinks as fast as the brain 🙂

Yup, agree with you totally. On the bright side, the uterus keeps contracting for the next 6 months after birth. So there, that’s the post pregnancy fact! Have a great day!
