How many times have you asked yourself what “motherhood” really means? At Fertilidad Integral, we promote this concept as an experience that isn’t limited to a single stage or one way of living it. Mothering can be desire, doubt, loss, waiting, transformation—but it is also love, commitment, and decision. That’s why we honor every path to motherhood and all the people who choose to raise children, from different places and circumstances.
We offer this space to reflect together on what is often left unsaid and deserves to be seen.
When You´re Wondering If Mothering Is for You
To you, who have decided not to start a family, who have thought it through deeply, maybe it simply isn't part of your desire. We want to remind you that this is valid, too. Mothering should never be an imposed expectation but a conscious decision. Sometimes, the greatest act of self-love is choosing a different path—and that does not make it any less worthy.
To you, who hear that inner voice asking: What if I don’t make it? Facing the desire to build a family can also come with fear. Fear of not achieving it, of not being able to, of running out of time. We want to remind you that this fear doesn’t make you any less strong it makes you human.
To you, who are still unsure whether this desire is yours or someone else’s. You constantly hear about the so-called“biological clock”, or“So, when’s the baby coming?”—often said with good intentions, but still carrying a heavy emotional weight. Sometimes, the decision to mother does not come as a certainty, but as a question. And there is beauty in that search, too. You don’t have to decide today. You have the right to change your mind and take your time.
When You´re Already on the Journey
To you, who walk this path with a smile. We know your body has felt more than people imagine: shots, appointments, tests, pauses, hopes, and grief. And even if there is no baby in your arms just yet, you are already mothering through every act of care toward yourself and your future.
To you, who feel you have to “earn” motherhood. Those who walk this road with love, but also with resilience, challenging imposed norms and defending their right to build a family on their terms, without fear of judgment, whether alone or accompanied. Because mothering should be a free, profound, and personal choice, a decision taken at your own pace and in your own time.
When You´re Already Raising a Child, In Your Own Way, On Your Own Time
To you, who find refuge in your partner, who know that raising another life is a shared responsibility. We want to remind you that you are a team. That shared parenting means commitment, active responsibility, and emotional support every step of the way.
To you, who give it your all and still sometimes feel it’s not enough. Those who have experienced exhaustion, sleepless nights, doubts, and frustrations. To you, who sometimes wonder if you’re doing it right, the answer is always yes: you are doing it with love, and that is always enough.
Because mothering is more than giving birth. It is holding, deciding, loving, and being. It’s choosing, every day, to care for life in all its forms. And that choice is profoundly brave and transformative.
It doesn’t matter if you’re just beginning, if you’re already raising a child, or if you’re still undecided; this day is also for you. At Fertilidad Integral, we believe in all ways of forming a family, and we recognize those who parent with desire, support, decision, and resilience.
Today, we embrace you and remind you: your path with all its nuances deserves to be honored, too.
