It’s often said but it is true. Mothers are perhaps the toughest, most resilient, and most loving people on the planet. Men think they’re all tough and macho but growing, carrying, and giving birth to a baby takes way more toughness.

That’s nine months of checkups, medication as needed, and a whole lot of patience until women go in to labor.

What’s funny is that it’s usually the men who panic first when her water breaks.

But once a woman gives birth, love and tears of happiness fill the room. Even the new dad starts crying. Then the newborn does something totally unexpected, like cling to his new mom.

Okay let’s not be too harsh with dads. They’re tasked with working to provide for his new family, plus taking care of all the new mom needs. She can’t always be doing housework now!

Let’s include include back pain, heartburn, water retention, varicose veins, having to go to the toilet a lot, or sleep problems.

Her newborn even cries out causing mom to open her eyes and smile. But then again those doctors and nurses were surely smiling themselves. Dad must have been holding back tears!

Even Raising Children say that affection is the way to go.

“Warm, gentle affection makes your newborn feel safe and builds your bond. You can also build your bond through your interactions with your newborn – for example, when you give your newborn things to look at, listen to and feel. This gets your newborn’s brain working and makes it grow.”

Lots and lots of hugs and kisses!
