It is a kind of labour that occupies a woman’s whole life and resources without a return of any kind. As Ross adds, modern Western communities idealize motherhood as a sacred duty, at the same time devaluing and trivializing the labour necessary for childcare (2016: 10). However, although women are expected to be self-sacrificing, caring and protective, ironically they are also criticized for being domineering and over-protective ( Ross, 2016: 4). The idealized concept of motherhood is all about suffering and self-sacrifice the more a woman suffers, the more dignified she becomes ( Malacrida and Boulton, 2012: 761). A woman’s body is controlled not only by herself but also by the baby, who literally shares the female body for a while, and by the father who also claims ownership of the baby along with the female body ( Powell-Jenkins, 2006: 79).

In other words, motherhood brings a sharing of the body with one’s power over it.
