I was trying to find any sites or examples of real women (not hollywood) where going through the process of motherhood makes you a better person. I know there is a lot of bad aspects to it but I want to see the good - after all I'm not doing this for mothers day breakfasts.

So here is the question:

If you have already made this transition what has changed for the better? These can be either physically, emotionaly, mentaly or spiritually.

Please share your positive changes, even if your still pregnant with your first. I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to see the positives.

I'll get the ball rolling:

If I hadn't become pregnant I wouldn't have realised that I still had body image issues. For me to support this child I will have to learn to love my body for what it is and when I reach that point I will be better for embracing Motherhood.

Your turn....
