Tony Teixeira
“Now the thing about having a baby - and I can't be the first person to have noticed this - is that thereafter you have it.”
Jean Kerr
“Most of these women are returning to work anywhere from six to 12 weeks after giving birth. There isn't a lot of research out there on women's general postpartum health, and almost nothing specifically looking at working women.”
Pat McGovern

Sam Levenson
“Man, born of woman, has found it a hard thing to forgive her for giving him birth. The patriarchal protest against the ancient matriarch has borne strange fruit through the years.”
Lillian Smith
“Being a mother is so much more than giving birth. It takes all your time, energy, wit and strength, not to mention the wisdom and grace of God to see that that child succeeds, ...

This is why we honor these mothers because they have triumphed in the spotlight and at home.”
Johnnie Walker
“You don't realize this when you're giving birth but you instantly know it when you assess your life,”
Reese Witherspoon
