One of my biggest regrets is the lack of photographic evidence we have of my pregnancy and our first moments as mother and daughter.I hated what I looked like at the end of my pregnancy and post birth, I was stupidly adamant that no photos be taken of me.
I was quietly suffering with the trauma that had been Belle's birth, and was struggling to breastfeed, I hated myself, why would I want photos of that?
I'd like to get a hold of myself then and shake her a little. You never get those moments back. I kick myself now that we don't have more of these images of us to treasure.
This is one of the very few I have of Belle and I in our first weeks together, embracing in a very special moment, which is why it is my entry for this weeks (and my first) Gallery at Sticky Fingers. I think it is a true capture of a 'mothers love'.
Oh sweetheart, hormones are everywhere after birth and you are not always feeling your best, but nothing will take away how your felt for Belle and no Photo could ever capture that much love so don't worry! What a beautiful photo of you both together. x
ReplyDeleteOh it's such a beautiful photo! It captures Mother love perfectly.
