One word for babies? Adorable! Seeing a newborn is a beautiful feeling. Their cute little fingers and toes can make anyone swoon over them. Those tufts of baby hair and their soft smiles when they look at you. They can take you by surprise. Babies don’t have to do much to be the adorable beings they are.
Being a mother of two kids, I know the feeling of seeing and holding a baby for the first time in your arms. I had a difficult pregnancy because of gestational diabetes and nausea following me till my third trimester. There was a time when I doubted if I would be able to make it through till the end. I still remember when the nurse handed over my angel for the first time. All the tears, the pain, and the suffering suddenly seemed worth it. However, after my second child, I’ve decided not to go with any more kids as my husband and I decided on a small family. But every once in a while I come across a picture of a newborn that takes me back to my old days. When I held my first child in my arms the very first time, my heart skipped a beat. I couldn’t believe that I gave birth to such a beautiful tiny human. The way she held my arms and slept all cozy and blissfully is something that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Babies have a way of making your ovaries ache. Don’t get me wrong, I mean it in a good way. Have you ever felt the same way looking at a baby’s picture?
Here are 6 adorable newborn photos that will make your insides flutter all over again!
1. Dreaming Away!

If only we could all look so calm and content while sleeping! Look at the cute onesie and the beanie! I love how the baby was shot sleeping in a small bed. It truly reminds us of how tiny they are.
2. Holding On..

Have you ever had a baby’s hand clenched tightly over your index finger? If you are a mother, you might have experienced it in the first few days of giving birth. I don’t know why, but whenever my little one does it, it makes me more protective towards her.
3. All Smiles

I love seeing a happy baby. A smile from my little one is enough to wash away all my worries and stress. Their smile reminds us of all the beauty around us and makes me feel strong when I’m feeling beat down.
4. Those Eyes!

Those piercing blue eyes and the innocent look on her face can make anyone go weak in the knees. While also making us go green with envy.

The expression on this baby’s face can keep you guessing till the end of time. There are times when my little one’s expression made me split my sides and other times leave me wondering what is going on in her head.
6. Sleepy Baby

This little one is ready for a nap or is probably bored doing nothing. Baby yawns are adorable and I miss not being able to see my kids’ little yawns anymore.
Even though I have signed off on having any more kids, these cuties are definitely giving me second thoughts. And if you are a new parent, chances are that your baby is going to keep you occupied throughout the day. These moments can be fleeting and pass us by before we even begin to enjoy it. So cherish every moment you have with them now.
