She’s found success on the runway, but supermodel Adriana Lima says there’s another career she finds even more satisfying: Motherhood. “The best job in the world for me is being a mom,” the Brazilian beauty, 28, tells PEOPLE. “I never thought I could love so much. I always thought, does unconditional love exist? Now I know it does because I feel it.” Lima, who welcomed daughter Valentina Lima Jaric Nov. 15, says becoming a parent has “really changed me completely. I am, in my head, more mature, more secure. And, you know, it changed completely the priorities in [my] life.”“You feel so strong,” she adds. “It’s such a wonderful feeling.” The Victoria’s Secret model drew upon that strength when she was found to be suffering from preeclampsia, necessitating two weeks of bed rest before the delivery of her daughter at only 34 weeks along. Weighing in at just 4.4 lbs., Valentina was the “smallest [baby] in the whole hospital,” Lima recalls. “I wish I had her at home but it wasn’t possible in my case.” |
