What every woman should consider before having a child

It is a woman who Gets to bring the life of a fetus to a baby. so the woman has to make a concious choice on when they are ready to bring a life on earth. What should a woman think about before becoming a mother??

1. What are you willing to sacrifice? Are you ready to sacrifice? 

Sacrifice is a common theme in motherhood. The first thing  you sacrifice by default is your body for nine months. You have to sacrifice your petite and great figure and accept gaining weight in almost All parts of the body. You sacrifice your favorite meals to funny cravings. You also sacrifice your health with all the uncertain complications that might happen during pregnancy and childbirth. 

You also sacrifice your Life.Thousands of women lose their lives while bringing life 

You have to sacrifice your career temporarily. There are some periods you can't show up to your favorite profession to do what you like doing. This might even become Long term sacrifice of career in cases where you might develop complications or get a special child.

So you thinking of becoming a mom? Are you ready to sacrifice?

2. Are you emotionally prepared? Many women have become mothers when they're mentally struggling only to transfer Traumas to their children. When you're in a bad place emotionally and you're pregnant, you transfer those vibrations to your growing fetus in your womb. You have to be emotionally healthy to be a mother. DON'T have a child to heal your broken heart. MARRIED WOMEN STOP HAVING CHILDREN TO HEAL YOUR UNSTABLE MARRIAGE. Get pregnant when you're not wounded emotionally.

3. Are you financially prepared? Children are expensive. What if you can't work during pregnancy, are you financially stable to remain provided for? Do you have a financial support system like a husband who Will provide when you can't provide For yourself? Do you have enough savings? Do you have medical covers? 

4. Who Will be the father? This decision should not be made based on euphoria and infactuations of intimacy. You have to ask yourself whether the man is fit to be a father More than being an intimate partner. Is the man in an emotional and mental state to support you throughout pregnancy and childbirth? Is he ready to persevere sleepless nights with you? Can he handle your mood swings and cravings. So get a baby with a partner whom you're both ready  and intentional to have a child. If he is ready, you'll be assured of support. NEVER  GET PREGNANT TO TRAP A MAN. You will have trapped your child to dysfunctionality. 

Ladies what else do you think of? Children are angels and blessings. But they need to be brought forth by fully prepared mothers
