{:en} What happens to the body during and after the pregnancy? During pregnancy, your belly needs to expand and provide a comfortable environment for your baby. Meanwhile, the skin of your belly stretches and like a piece of cloth under tension it loses its elasticity to some extent. As a result, after giving birth, especially following multiple pregnancies, the stretch forces cause your belly skin to become more loose and saggy. The same is valid for the breasts as well. Once they are full of breast milk, they expand and stretch as the belly. So, after the hormones are withdrawn and the breast milk production is seized, the...

{:en} To  Lara by  Beril Yabar When you were born, Everything in my life changed. My heart — it grew. There were things I couldn’t yet understand, As if inside me Lived another “me.” The first time you said “Mom,” My ears opened wide. When I saw you take your first steps, My feet lifted off the ground. Then you graduated, like everyone else, And when I heard your name during the awards, A wing grew on my right side. One day you came to me in tears, My heart ached — my soul felt like cracked earth. I realized I had more life to give, And I gave it all to you. Turns out, I had superpowers — My lips could heal your wounds with...

{:en} Things that seem like they will never end will one day come to an end. Time that seemed long and boring to you as a child, When you grow up, you don't understand how it was. The buildings you enlarge with your child's eyes shrink, All the streets you thought you'd get lost in will become memorized, You want to get lost; you can't get lost. You want to get lost, So many people you thought were invincible, One day you realize that you have evolved into a world where you are defeated. Those you see as unreachable become your companions one day. You despair as if you will never lose those closest to you. But once...

{:en} We left behind 365 days. We started to open brand new pages, to experience, to live. As we enter a new year, we always think about what happened in the year we left behind. What we are thinking is wrong, because last year as it is called, is "a year gone by". Whatever happened, it happened and it's over. We continue our lives with the teachings of each age, getting older every year. We are filled with hope for each new year that begins. I expect great experiences, ideas, and self-improvement from each new year and get excited. One of my resolutions this year is to “be...
