From these pleasant incidents, it became evident that the year has a ray of sunshine, even thought it is still halfway in the year. Although having a baby brings a mix of emotions such as the overwhelming joy, unconditional love and excitement. Accompanied by emotional shifts such as hormonal changes, sleep deprivation and personal growth.

Having a baby also brings feelings that one never knew existed and unlocks a new level of growth, as one sees life with a new perspective and protective instincts.
