Pregnancy is a time of contradictions. You feel happy one moment, and the next minute an overwhelming sadness takes you in its arms. You feel blessed by the opportunity to grow a new human inside you, and how difficult it is for your body. You feel absolutely beautiful and fat at the same time. You feel so many things, good and bad, and you need someone to support and reassure you, someone to take you by the hand and say you’ll make it and that you are beautiful.
But even in moments of loneliness, there is something that can inspire you for more. These are pregnancy quotes. Every woman walks her path in pregnancy differently. One thing can be challenging for one woman and easy for the other. So each needs a different type of support. We really hope that you’ll find a pregnancy quote that will help you cope better.
