While still pregnant with my son, I was trying to learn more about the bodily changes that an expectant mother has to go through and came across this rather unique blog.
The owner of this blog, Bonnie, believes that a mother’s body is always beautiful and is responsible for the creation and nourishment of our children.
It should not have to be subject to mockery and instead be seen so that the next generation will learn what a normal body of a mother looks like.
She has accordingly put together this site to enable mothers to share their bodily images without shame and without the effects of for instance, plastic surgery.
Women can participate by emailing to Bonnie, their personal stories / thoughts. They can also choose to tell about their experience with pregnancy and birth and include photos about themselves while pregnant and after becoming a mother.
And just as a heads up, there are some submission with nudity … so, only go check it out if you do not get offended. (you shouldn’t)

As usual, do come back and tell me what you think.
Enjoy,
Nelly
