Look at that belly—it’s a testament to the nine months I spent nurturing a 9lb 3oz baby. Those stretch marks? They map the journey of creating three wonderful children. See those swollen fingers? They remind me of the extra fluid I carried while expecting my last little one. That fold at my hip? It’s a new addition, born of birthing my first child at 8lbs 10oz and two subsequent 9lb 3oz babies. It wasn’t there before, but now it’s a beautiful reminder of the 30 months I carried two hearts within me.
Isn’t it remarkable? That smiling baby looking up at me? I brought him into this world, nurturing him with my own body. My body has been the foundation for six lives, giving birth to three healthy, full-term babies. It expanded and transformed to provide the nourishment they needed to thrive. My body has become a canvas that tells the extraordinary story of creating three unique human beings.
It’s awe-inspiring, isn’t it? From now on, I refuse to view my body with disdain. I won’t fixate on my squishy stomach or stretch-marked thighs, nor will I lament my less-perky breasts or the way my underwear digs into my hips. I will never see these features as flaws again.
Instead, I choose to honor my body for the incredible vessel that it is. After all, I have the remarkable ability to grow human beings. What’s your superpower?
