I simply love this. Repost @amandaoleander ・・・ I got a lot of requests to release this older print this week so I’d like to introduce it to the new wave of friends on this page. What is your interpretation? . . . . . . . . . . Title: Don’t worry, you’re growing. ——————————————————— Título: No te preocupes, estás creciendo. ——————————————————— Title: Não se preocupe, você está crescendo. ——————————————————— Titolo: non ti preoccupare, stai crescendo. ——————————————————— Название: Не беспокойтесь, вы растете. ——————————————————— Titel: Mach dir keine Sorgen, du wirst wachsen. ——————————————————— نگران نباشيد شما در حال رشد هستيد ——————————————————— ——————————————————— Many times when we are going through a rough time mentally or physically we forget that we are actually growing as a person and it’s usually a bit painful. #4thtrimesterbodiesproject #4thtrimester #fourthtrimester #thisispostpartum #breastfeeding #birth #bodypositivity #stopcensoringmotherhood #bodyliberation #bodypositive #feminism #bodylove #postpartumbody #postpartumcare #postpartumsupport (Post by Admin Christie)

Pure beauty. #Repost @morgangoodwin ・・・ Baby Marae is officially 2 weeks old today. **This photo was taken 1 week postpartum.** Because I have a transabdominal cerclage (TAC), I have to deliver my babies via c section. My journey to parenthood was not an easy task. My scars and markings tell a hell of a story. My husband and I was faced with miscarriage early in our relationship, 3 years in to be exact. Followed by two second trimester pregnancy losses after discovering I have incompetent cervix which resulted in the loss of our first son Nov 2017 and our twin boys Nov 2018. Although we were faced with these challenges, we knew not to lose faith in God. The body is amazing and I am so proud of my body, my scars, and my process. It just made me a better woman, a better person, a better mom, wife, sister, friend, and daughter. Trust the process! God will only give his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers. Thank you everyone for your love, support, and prayers. This really took a village and I am so happy to share my story to give hope to another couple or woman fighting this same battle. Thank you Jesus!!! #4thtrimesterbodiesproject #4thtrimester #fourthtrimester #thisispostpartum #breastfeeding #birth #bodypositivity #stopcensoringmotherhood #bodyliberation #bodypositive #feminism #bodylove #postpartumbody #postpartumcare #postpartumsupport (Post by Admin Christie)

For those honoring the babies they lost too soon. On this Bereaved Mother’s Day, we’re holding space for you. {posted by Heather} #Repost @ihadamiscarriage ・・・ ✨ International Bereaved Mother’s Day ✨ Grief morphs; it does not evaporate. Time helps; it does not bleach the strident stains. Life moves forward; it does not deny enigmatic trauma. One foot in front of the other: it’s the only way through. _ I’ve been struggling, but not necessarily for the reasons you’d think. My mind travels to the day of my second trimester miscarriage and the loss of Olive, yes. But lately, amidst covid and the remarkable uncertainty we are all navigating, my palpable pain has been for those undergoing loss through loss. Loss of presumed stability. Loss of relative freedom. Loss of in person connection. Loss of a baby amidst the unparalleled shifts happening worldwide. _ Today—and everyday—bereaved mother’s should be honored and recognized for the motherhood we navigate. The one we traverse each and everyday. With or without littles underfoot, you are a mother. You are a mother. You are a mother. You are a mother. _ Poetry in photo by @skinonsundays for my campaign: The light in my body broke and the darkness changed me into someone that could heal it. // Photo by @rebeccacoursey_photosandfilm. _ #IHadAMiscarriage #miscarriage #internationalbereavedmothersday #stillbirth #tfmr #infantloss #ptsd #grief #motherhood #stopcensoringmotherhood #postpartum

Let’s rethink the way we view our bodies and our bellies, yeah? Posted by @sandsmama #Repost @twinmamallama ・・・ I read the kids a bedtime story tonight. It was not a hardcover nor was it paperback. It was this belly. My belly was their bedtime story. I sat on the floor and went through each mark, why one side of my belly took most of the sag and marks as Dominic was sitting to the left in my belly weighing 7 lbs and just beneath him was Vincent pushing my cervix making me pee every 5 seconds! I shared joyful memories, the anticipation and the unknown in my pregnancy. We went through each sag, and shared some unforgettable moments as a new Mom. I explained that we were once all connected through this precious button while they poked my protruding belly button and giggled. I ended my story with a scar, the scar that cut through 7 layers of skin which led to their life outside the womb and into Mama’s arms at last . . . Don’t ever say you’re ashamed of your postpartum body. YOU gave life. Think of all you went through to be gifted with the most precious gems in the world. YOU are a Super hero and YOU have the belly to show it! Tag a Mom and spread the postpartum love.

Oh, friends. Please read this caption and remember what a privilege and gift it is to outgrow—especially in the here and now. With love from @sandsmama — #Repost @thebirdspapaya ・・・ It’s ok to grow out of things. Your relationships, your hair colour, your job, your hobbies, your likes and dislikes. In fact, there are very few things that will stay with you forever. Growth and change are inevitabilities. They are the very evolution of you. ⁣ ⁣ So honestly, the more I think on it, the less I care about growing out of my jeans. ⁣ ⁣ It’s just that I’m actually eating to nourish my body instead of just depriving it. It’s just that I’m taking care of my mental health. It’s just that this is a LOT right now and things are changing, myself included. It’s just that I’m exercising for reasons beyond erasing food. It’s just that I’m actually in my healthiest form, and I have to be willing to see what that looks like. ⁣ ⁣ And that took some growing. Mentally, emotionally, and out of old jeans.
