It is harder being a mom than being an expectant mom

No greater joy is felt when you had known that you are conceiving a child. A child that you can proudly say "A child of my own!" You wouldn't mind the miraculous changes of your body and mood swings month after month until delivering the most precious inside your womb.

I've seen many pregnant women who are enjoying their pregnancy period. Most of them are very health conscious and others strongly believe in pregnancy superstitious and wholeheartedly follow what are best practices during pregnancy just to keep the fetus healthy and witty from the start of conception until he grows from the real world!

But I realized, it is harder to become a mom, from the 1st day when the baby is born. Keeping baby's safety and health while he was still inside the womb doesn't stop when you successfully delivered him after nine months of pregnancy period. During pregnancy, sometimes you can't cope with your emotional and body changes,yet you keep yourself strong for your baby.Now that he is born, all the more that you need to be strong because your precious one needs your wings to carry him until he knows how to manage his own life. It is harder to control him since a lot of things and people may influence his growth from day to day. Being an expectant mom ends on the ninth month! Being a mom is a lifetime, it even starts from day one of conception.
