As all mothers know, there is no greater feeling than being a mother for the very first time.
From the moment your baby takes their first breath to the first time they open their eyes, you are in true awe of the miracle you have brought into this world.
Those precious moments after you give birth are simultaneously joyful, emotional, and are undoubtedly one of a kind.
