This was my favorite picture taken. I was in my second trimester with my son and it was wonderful. After dealing with infertility for so long it and never believing I would get pregnant this was a miracle. I will follow-up with post partum shots as to this day – 17 months later I STILL look pregnant sadly, but thank goodness I am not alone. My body is just like all the rest of the amazing mothers out there. I am so tired of seeing celebs who have children and 6 weeks later there is no record physically of this. I dare someone in the public eye to post a REAL photo of their bodies after childbirth because while there are some blessed with incredible genes most of us have our battle scars of stretch marks, sagging skin (who said we were going to have a shelf after a c-section) and so many other changes that remain forever after that life changing day.

Thank you, THANK YOU for creating this incredible site. I have sent it to all the moms I know.

    Your photo brings back memories! My husband was looking at this site, and reminded me of when I used to take baths every day when I was pregnant. It was one of his favorite sights.But it reminded me of how, now matter how hard I’d try, I simply couldn’t submerge! My big belly would float and pull me upwards with it! It made me smile to remember that. Thank you for this picture!
