“New year, evolved me. Motherhood has transformed me. I’ve become responsible for carrying a young child before he was born and continuing to be there for his every want and need. And it’s a blessing to be going through this journey again. But it doesn’t come easy, through the pregnancy illnesses (HG sucks), being present for my toddler, and struggling with my body, I have to remind myself that I am still beautiful. It’s hard knowing this is the heaviest I’ve ever been (both pregnancies), none of my clothes comfortably fit, and when I look in the mirror, I think to myself “whoa, you got HUGE!” Before realizing that of course I did because I’m growing life inside me. But my split second reaction is one that focused on the negative rather than the positive. This year, my New Years resolution is to remember I AM BEAUTIFUL. No matter what size I am, but especially now that I am carrying a child. In 2022, I will be kind to myself.
Thank you mayanageneviere for making me remember that I am...
