@ SDK... You look good ok!
You need to see some people's pictures, then you will understand.
Motherhood rocks big time 📌

If I send mine,you even be shock, I was a totally different person..
Every woman who has gone through labour and birth of a child is strong..
What about the pains that comes after the birth 😭

What women go through just to bring a child into this world! Wowwwww!

I remember having a conversation with a female friend who was pregnant. We had been talking for quite a while, and when I was about to wish her goodnight, she said, "Jerry, please, let's continue talking."

I asked, "Why na?"

She told me she was experiencing acid reflux and heart palpitations, and she needed someone to talk to so she wouldn't lay to increase psin.....

I thought she was jokingooo

She lives in another country, with about an eight-hour time difference i think, and her husband had travelled to another city.

I told her, "I want sleep ooooo! No be me give you belle!"

But guess what? Na my paddy so I ended up staying on the call with her from 10 p.m. until 4 a.m., cracking every joke I could remember just to keep her company.

What shocked me most was when she told me she hadn't slept for up to five hours in two days!

Honestly, that experience gave me a little glimpse into what some women endure during pregnancy.

From the sleepless nights, body changes, discomfort, hormonal changes, emotional struggles and countless sacrifices to the pains of childbirth, motherhood is truly an extraordinary journey.

To every woman carrying a child, may Almighty God continually renew your strength, preserve your health, grant you peaceful nights and safe delivery.

To those who have already become mothers, may your sacrifices never go unrewarded.

And to every woman hoping to become a mother someday, may your heart's desires be fulfilled in God's perfect time.

Women deserve more appreciation, patience, love and support than words can express......

Big STELLA, this is beautiful! 🌹❤️

A special salute to every pregnant woman out there. You are stronger than you probably realise!

At delivery I had gained a whooping 20kg. From 60kg to 80kg and was as black as charcoal.

One thing about SDK is her authenticity!
Stella, you look good in the picture which was even before filters.
Pregnancy is not a joke.

Stella you looked good. If you see me when I gave birth to my first child ehn, now I can't relate with the cute pictures these Genz them post after child birth.
God bless all mothers and mothers to be🙏

When i was pregnant, i was looking very black and skinny. Pregnancy takes a huge toll on women.

Stella, if you see Toyin Abraham, s own eee...your own na Agbani Darego na.

Stella how were you able to carry baby after cs? Omo I couldn’t lift any part of my body, not even my eyes 🤣 God bless every woman 🙏

I just fell in love with this picture Stella, it's very powerful, Weldon Momma

Stella this picture is unfiltered, it's fine. These days they apply makeup and filters before posting.
I was also very dark, with swollen face and nose, my weight doubled too.
I had to cut my hair so I could pour water on my head because of constant headaches.
Motherhood is bitter-sweet really.

God is gracious. Child birth and motherhood is not a joke. The pains were terrible, imagine leaping for a whole year after my 2nd child.

Guess I am the only one that didn't have any significant changes. My skin colour didn't change, my pointed nose didn't get bigger, no stretch marks at all. I was even surprised myself.
My doctors always snapped my tummy during ante natal .
The truth is that I haven't changed much in the past 20 years.

Women are the MVP!!!
Every pregnancy experience I have read about always sends shivers down my spine. The body never goes back to being the same way it was.

I am not married yet but already have a big nose and plenty acne on my face, am scared for when i get pregnant mehn. I pray i will be glowing and beautiful oh😭😭

Chai Stella, your own better o. You don see other people transformation?

Honestly, you still look amazing! Every woman's pregnancy journey is different, and you handled yours with so much grace.

You carried a whole human and went through CS pain, yet you still look way better than you think.

Don't let social media fool you, most people only post their best angles.

Ah Stella, that picture captured your description of how you felt perfectly 👌
Very poignant snapshot.
I had a very feminine voice that several guys had confessed doing soapy to, during phone conversation. I was 70kg. Beautiful, slim and a size 10.
Once I got pregnant, I became wolverine. Hairy, a deep, manly bass voice and I can no longer sing or carry a note as I feel breathless, fingernails grow excessively.
Shoe size grew permanently. Flat tummy gone for 6 years. Size 14 now.
What gets me most is the lack of sleep from pregnancy till now. Ahhh, thank God I am sane.
But my child is a crown of glory on my head. A+ student in all subjects, scholarship-sponsored and so full of energy, wit and an irresistible personality. Absolutely the light of my life. However, 1 and done.
I wouldn't dare try pregnancy again.

Wow!!!! Motherhood Rocks!!!

You look good eh, Stella. A lot of women can't relate.
Honestly, it's just sad when I see people calling women that gave birth via CS lazy. That procedure and recovery is so painful, gush! 🤦🏾

Thank God for the journey.

Thank you for sharing this picture SDK.

I struggled for most part of my second pregnancy, but the first was splendid.

The downside of pregnancy that I dislike is receding hairline.

Omo mehn..if I come this world again..na man I be.. women I hail🙌
