If someone were to ask you to give up your children so that you can have your pre-baby body back (most days) your answer would be no. So here you are with no other choice but to accept your mom bod. Whether you are pregnant now, had a baby recently or three years ago, your body will never be the same! I am currently struggling with body image issues as I am now pregnant with my 2nd child. All the feelings of inadequacy have already rushed back even though I am barely halfway through pregnancy #2. So what better way to refresh my mind by reminding you and I to love our mom bods!?

In case you missed it a few weeks ago, the ladies here at The Boudoir Studio talked about how they imagined motherhood would be versus how it really is. If you want to catch up on our stories click here! It’s amazing the different views we all had and what major changes really took place.

What wasn’t covered, is how much your relationship can change with your spouse. . .

Mother’s day is this Sunday! I cannot help but reflect on what it means to be a mother while honoring the many mother figures in my life. If you missed one of my past posts, An Unconventional Love Story, I became a mother unexpectedly early! While I had always imagined myself becoming a mother, I felt like a had little time to actually prepare. Now being 3 1/2 years into motherhood, it makes me wonder…

is anyone really ready for motherhood?
