A Life of Love begins!
Becoming a new mother is an intense experience! Holding my precious baby girl in my arms for the first time, was overwhelming! ...Now a Mom! an awareness floods over you that life will never be the same again. Another human being is now dependent upon you for survival. More than anything else, you want to be the best parent possible.
Truly a Wonderful Experience

Becoming a new mother is an intense experience!I woke up one night in January 08' to go the bathroom when "yes" i felt my 1st contraction!!! I was so excited, as i was over due and couldn't wait to meet my baby! We did not know what we were having. I was hoping for a girl but it didn't matter really as long as the baby was healthy. I waited a little while counting the mintues between contractions before waking up my husband. I was having contractions every 5mins at this time. We then called the hospital to let them know i was on my way in. Apon arriving at the hospital i was checked in at 5cm dilated. My water still had not broke and when i was 8cm dilated the doctor came in and broke my water. It wasn't long after, that they were telling me to PUSH!!! LOL I found it so HOT in the hospital and my husband did a great job at getting cold clothes for my head to cool down. After an hour pushing! The doctor came in to check and found the baby not coming down because it was face up! He then turned the baby face down. It was another hour pushing.....PLOP! Out it came! My baby GIRL!!! My husband and i were glowing and grining ear to ear!!! What a feeling!!!!

Wonderful lens and being a mom myself with a 2year old I understand that need to be with your child and Mentoring for free helped me find the business that fits in with my needs. Children are precious and being able to be with them and financially give them what they need is a blessing!

I love the way you explain everything.
I read the message Melanie wrote women
will rule the world,I believe she is right,
I have the proof for that belief.
God said women are smarter then men,
he didn't tell the men.
Great work

I'm a single mom with four daughters ... whew!
Don't tell the guys, but women will rule the world. Shhhhh ... it's a secret.
I've been teaching prepared childbirth classes for the past 27 years and I see the sadness in the eyes of expectant moms when they tell me that they MUST go back to the workplace after the baby is born.
Great 1st Lens!
