When I first found out I was pregnant, I was excited, nervous, scared, ecstatic, confused, worried and so many other emotions. And like a lot of first time moms, I had a lot of questions.
當我剛知道自己懷孕的時候，我很期待、緊張、害怕、開心、困惑、擔心⋯⋯就像很多第一次當媽咪的妳們， 我內心有好多問題：
Questions about what I could or could not do. What was allowed and what wasn’t. What could I eat and what was off limits. What could I do and what could I NOT do. Was my life going to change completely and would I lose my freedoms before the baby even came out?!
問題關於這個可以嗎？那樣可以嗎？這個能不能吃？那個可不可以做？到底什麼事是不應該的什麼事是應該的？我的人生是不是小孩還沒有出來就要改變到我認不出來我自己？我的自由要馬上掰掰了？
Luckily, I have been blessed with a healthy pregnancy and after consulting with doctors and experts, I started to realize that there’s a lot more that pregnant women CAN do than CAN’T do. And after talking to other pregnant women, I realized that I’m not the only one out there who still wants to challenge herself - to try new things, to push our limits (within reason of course), and to make a our own dreams come true.
我很幸運，醫生都說我的寶寶是健康的，我基本上沒有什麼問題。而且和醫生請教了許多問題之後，也發現其實孕婦的限制並沒有我以前想像的多！跟著其他的孕婦聊了之後，更發現，我不是唯一一個孕婦想要挑戰自己-嘗試新的東西、挑戰自己的極限、實現我們的夢想！
So, I put the question out there on social media calling for other moms-to-be like me to let me know what dreams THEY had and hundreds of women responded. It was AMAZING! It was so encouraging to have so much support and to know that I wasn’t the only crazy one out there!
所以我在我的臉書和IG問了準媽咪們一個問題：她們的夢想是什麼？想要跟我“瘋媽咪”瘋什麼？大家的反應真的很感人！有這麼多人支持這個活動，這麼多媽咪們跟我分享她們的夢想， 讓我真的感受到很大的支持，還有知道我不是唯一一個瘋子！哈哈！
Our first mommy, Winnie, had the first and possibly most difficult challenge. She wanted to take underwater maternity photos. Thanks to 群群哥 #Naturemade and #VivaNuts , we were able to make it happen. Her courageousness was incredible and her husband’s support for her was inspiring and heartwarming. Thank you to the team for making our dreams come true and helping us take these gorgeous photos!
後來， 我們挑選了幾位媽咪們。第一個是Winnie（順道一提，她前幾天已經生小孩了！恭喜恭喜！）Winnie的挑戰應該是裡面最高難度的挑戰：水下孕婦照！Winnie的勇氣真的是可以學習的 （她害怕，但是還是跳下水去！）她的老公的支持也是超級感人的。 謝謝綠田攝影棚 劉群群 好厲害的攝影師，還有讓我們每天維護健康的 萊萃美Nature Made_美國第一大品牌維他命 及 Viva-健康萬歲 讓這個夢想可以完成！也謝謝 媽媽寶寶-懷孕、生產、育兒雜誌幫我們整個系列活動作報導。這個是我們辛苦的拍了整天的結果。希望你們也是跟我們一樣很愛很愛這個作品！
