The First

You’ve been dreaming about this baby for ages, you’ve thought about every detail, every feature, every reaction. You’ve felt their weight on your arms many times in your mind. Nothing can prepare you for, or be compared to the reality of the first time you hold your baby in your arms. 

The Hug

Am I doing this right? What time is it? Have I eaten today? Your baby pulls you from your internal monologue by nuzzling into your neck, the cosiest place it can be. Enchanted, your mile-a-minute brain stops to cherish this moment, the hug.

The Hip

It’s impossible to describe what this image represents. Your baby is now strong enough to be carried with one arm, they sit on your hip and you relish new freedoms together. Pay tribute to countless first moments, discoveries and shared joy.

The Belly

Despite of how much science has advanced, some things still belong to the categories of miracle or magic.

That is the case with pregnancy: We all understand the theory, but reality can be incredibly different from one mother to another, from one second to the other…

However, there is a feeling that is universal to all expectant mothers: the unforgettable feeling of not being alone at any moment, something unique, miraculous, and definitely magical.

La Leche

Breastfeeding is complex. What else combines the most pleasant and joyful moments along
with the most overwhelming and painful ones? Whether we had a better or worse experience,
we wouldn’t want to forget any of these chapters, they helped us realise our innate skill,
strength and determination as a recent mum.

The Dream Sticker

Your head is a cobweb of odd-jobs and deadlines – no time to finish everything today, and the lack of sleep isn’t helping. Another dose of caffeine is more likely to make you anxious than alert… suddenly you see something new, a reminder, and you’re instantly taken to the best place you can be, the perfect moment: 3 seconds away from holding your baby.

The anticipation resets your headspace, from overwhelmed to a daydream of that soon-to-be reality!

The Rainbow

You wish time stopped so you could slowly process, pick up the broken pieces of your own self and start your own path towards recovery.

Yet, reality is just the opposite. You are forced to continue your daily life instead, balancing all of your pieces without any special support.

When you least expect it, all your pieces come back together, as every crack is filled with hope, excitement and, again, love.

The Love

As a parent of a premature baby, you look at your baby and feel completely overwhelmed by their small and fragile look.

Nonetheless, it takes less than a second to realise how mistaken you were, because feeling them skin to skin is the most wonderful and powerful experience. It not only takes your breath away, but also your fear.

Now, you look at your baby and see pure strength, pure contagious zest for life and you can’t help but smile.
