How 24 Animals Look Before Giving Birth

It's such a lovely moment to feel a new life growing inside of you and to be a prospective mother. Although these mothers are dissatisfied with their existing appearance, they are all incredibly cute. Whether it's a child, a puppy, or a baby snake, we think all babies are adorable, and every pregnancy is a tiny miracle. To demonstrate it, we picked these pictures.

1. When you don't feel cute yet, you still appear cute.

In a secluded corner of a lush forest, a prickly yet endearing hedgehog named Hazel was preparing for the most remarkable event of her life – the arrival of her litter. As her belly swelled with the precious cargo she carried, Hazel's maternal instincts kicked into high gear.
With meticulous care, she began gathering twigs, leaves, and soft moss, weaving them into a cozy nest fit for her soon-to-be newborns. Her nimble paws worked tirelessly, ensuring every detail was perfect, while her quills stood on end, a natural defense against any potential threats.
As the due date approached, Hazel's mate, a dashing hedgehog named Quill, kept a watchful eye, bringing her succulent berries and insects to nourish her and their unborn offspring. Their love was palpable, a bond forged in the wild but strengthened by the miracle they were about to experience.
One moonlit night, when the forest was hushed and still, Hazel's labor began. Through the gentle encouragement of Quill and the guidance of her own maternal wisdom, she welcomed her litter into the world – a tiny, squirming bundle of joy that instantly captured her heart.
