I treasure my stretch marks because I "earned" them during my first pregnancy with my daughter, who was stillborn.

As a Mommy of 3 I know that look, but I would never have been so brave back then. I only wish I had seen something this inspiring. I was young with my first baby and I remember that beautiful time being covered with a thin veil of shame...my body didn't look like I thought it was "supposed" to look and I couldn't wait for it to go away...that took a good part of the focus away from such a miraculous time in my life. That feeling resurfaced unfortunately after the birth of my other two children....I would love to see this printed and hung in ever OBGYN office! Imagine the power of this message! Ditch the "perfect pregnant" magazines and focus on the beauty of every shape and size....pregnancy is a blessing not some sort of contest. I'm going to share this with everyone I can~ this is TRUE BEAUTY!<br />~Jennifer<br />you go girl!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
