From womanhood to motherhood

There comes a time when (some) women stop to search or be in touch with simple womanhood and transit into another way of feeling woman: motherhood. It is said that it is difficult to master both separately from one another, and usually motherhood swallows womanhood. I'd like to think this does not mean mothers are more woman than non-mothers, only that mother is just another way to be woman... and there are so many.
