Although celebrating Mother's Day for some is exclusive to those who have already had their baby and others directly cross it out as a mere advertising claim, I claim that those who are pregnant already deserve the title and why not, also celebrate it like the others.
Maybe those who have not gone through this do not understand it very well, because many times I have heard that until the baby is not born you cannot call yourself a mother, but sleepless nights, nausea, discomfort and pain we feel They have opened the door to this adventure and they begin to show us the meaning of what it is to be a mother.
Is mother only who has given birth?
I must confess that before I got pregnant I thought so. Sure, the media, the ads and movies make pregnancy look so idyllic that you think you hardly notice it (Well, there are some lucky ones that belong to that group, but I certainly do not belong to him), which you can go in heels and very cute from the first to the last day.
However, the reality (or at least mine), is that there are good and other bad days, in which your healthy diet is reduced to a handful of foods that you barely support, in which the weight of the belly just leaves you a single comfortable position to sleep (which has taken a long time to find), and new sensations that remind you that you now have a radar activated 24 hours a day.
The beautiful part is that you feel your baby ... you see your belly grow and you feel mom. When he moves, when he wakes you up and you know he is hungry and when from the minute one in which you know you are carrying a baby, your whole world turns on him and everything you have to do for his well-being.
Pampering at this time in our life is vital
I've always thought that the environment surrounding a pregnant woman directly affects her baby… The studies that have been done on the effects of stress on the child indicate this, so the moments of joy and celebration will surely also reach him. Why not take advantage of a day like this to surprise the future mom and make her feel how important it is?
These kinds of details also make you remember the pregnancy experience as something beautiful.... At the end of the day during this time you are the queen of the party and I will not deny it, I love that they remind me with small details and I would bet that all the pregnant women the same thing happens to us.
What would an ideal celebration be like?
It is not necessary to spend a fortune to make a pregnant woman feel special ... in this moment of our lives we are more sensitive than ever and believe me, any gesture, however small, we will thank you and we will be very happy: some flowers, a book, some cosmetic product (do not choose any, but one that is special for future moms), are easy options that will take us Long time choose.
If yours is definitely the 'do it yourself' and you want the gift to be something very symbolic, you can do some collage with baby ultrasounds, put a picture of you luciento tripita in a beautiful frame or bring breakfast to bed with something that she loves.
Another possibility is give him something that is very useful For the moment we are living. I recently told you what are the best gifts I have received while pregnant and I can say once again that some of them are making my life so much easier.
If you want something more planned the options could go through a romantic dinner, a getaway (options that would come in luxury considering that some months are approaching when they may not be suitable for recent parents), or a good one spa and massage session Let us relax and leave us as new.
It is clear that everyone has their customs and that some people do not usually celebrate dates of this type, but perhaps a small 'change of chip', at least temporary, can do a lot for a woman who carries another being inside. Happy Mother's Day to all those heroines of our life and those who are on their way to becoming it.
