Three days after having her son, Danielle Haines decided to share a photo of herself in an extremely delicate state — without makeup or a pretty dress — and the resulting picture is just as beautiful as it is powerful. This raw and relatable moment became a source of inspiration for new mothers that they'll make it through this temporary stage and just existing with your newborn child can be the most beautiful time of their life. Danielle wrote on Facebook:
This is a picture of me 3 days postpartum. I was so raw and so open, I was a fucking mess. I loved my baby, I missed his daddy (he went back to work that day), I was mad at my mom, my heart hurt for my brother because my mom left us and now I had a little boy that looked like him, my nipples were cracked and bleeding, my milk was almost in, my baby was getting really hungry, I was feeling sad that people kill babies, like on purpose, I had not slept since I went into labor, I didn't know how to put my boobs away, my vagina was sore from sitting on it while nursing constantly, I was kinda loosing my mind.
