Happy BIRTH day to YOU

Yup, to you, MOM! If you biologically had your children, then you should celebrate the day you gave birth. It was truly an amazing experience like no other and you deserve all the credit in the world for enduring that. Remember all those contractions, screaming, sweating, hunger pains and crying? All that produced a little child you now hold in your arms or a teenager you can’t imagine was ever tiny enough to fit inside your belly.

If you wrote a birth story, go back and re-read it and relive those memories. Don’t concentrate on the negatives. Concentrate on what an adrenaline-filled experience it was for all involved. Can you believe you really gave birth? You should be honored for doing so!

So celebrate YOU as well when your child has a birthday. You really deserve it. Just don’t get too graphic with your kids, I don’t think they want to bask in those moments!
