15 Calming Memes About Giving Birth

by Ni'Kesia Pannell

For majority of my life, pregnancy has scared me. I thought I wouldn't have the capacity to carry another life inside of me, and found myself thinking the worst when it came to giving birth. After my sister gave birth though, I started thinking differently and soon found myself looking forward to the thought of pregnancy and childbirth. Another thing that helped me calm my thoughts were the positive memes about giving birth that I would see on social media. and the great stories that followed from new moms.

Though most memes are used to provide a laughable experience for people, pregnancy memes provide encouragement and calm during what cab be a nerve-wracking time. Even though I'm not a mom yet, those memes make me feel like when my time does come, I'll be equipped with positive thinking and ready to give my baby all the love I can. (Not to mention, the pregnancy memes have taught me more than a few things about pregnancy and delivery.)
