What does it mean to be a mom? Motherhood is the essence of femininity. It includes the ability to nurture, to give tender care, sometimes to sacrifice or delay meeting our own needs or desires for the benefit of our children.  It doesn't matter whether we give birth to our children, become moms by adoption, fostering, or the blending of families; we have the great privilege of molding, guiding and loving the next generation, and sometimes generations beyond that.

 

Good mothers leave a priceless legacy for their children. By loving and guiding them in positive ways, they enable their children to become loving, capable parents themselves. Bellyhood.com is a resource where mothers can find information, receive peer support, and form positive relationships with others like themselves to promote the goal of nurturing one another for the sake of children everywhere.
