Special article: The truth about motherhood

A special article: The truth about motherhood By: Marie Magdala Roker What is the mystery of motherhood? I know that when I was pregnant, experienced mothers could not stop giving me advice on taking care of newborns, delivery expectations and child care solutions. Yet, no mother ever told me how dreadful post partum depression could be, how much my world would change, how one person can bring so much to my life. I am taking this opportunity to share with expectant and first time mothers the truth about motherhood: You will never love another being as much as your child (ren). Wet kisses, hugs and snuggles really do make you feel better. You might not automatically bond with your new baby. You will feel like a failure some days. Mom and kids.
