For many women, pregnancy is a beautiful but uncomfortable time of life.

From the stretch marks to the weight gain, the morning sickness and the changes in your body, it's a time that requires an ability to adapt - and adapt quickly.

However, for one woman - 26-year-old Melbourne-based mummy blogger, Sophie Cachia - being pregnant is when she feels most powerful.

Currently expecting her second child, Ms Cachia took to Instagram on Saturday to comment on how fantastic being pregnant makes her feel.

'Being pregnant is when I feel most powerful,' she said.

'It's like you're on top of the world... Hey, I might be 15-odd kilograms heavier, but I'm on cloud nine.'

Hardships: While Ms Cachia says she does struggle with many of the common ailments of pregnancy - from morning sickness to migraines - she feels 'on top of the world' right now 

Carrying weight: She said that she may be '15 odd kilograms heavier', but 

In spite of the 'horrific morning sickness', the 'excruciating pain for months on end', the migraines, constipation, stretch marks and 'pelvic floor issues', for Ms Cachia, carrying a baby inside of her is something she is nearly addicted to:

'I say I'll be happy with two kids, but my gut tells me I'm definitely lying,' she said.

'There's something so empowering about carrying a life inside of you.' 

Empowering: For Ms Cachia, the things she has had to deal with include 'excruciating pain for months on end', 'horrific morning sickness' and 'pelvic floor issues'

'And I do miss being pregnant! Secretly think we'll end up going again!'.

'You explain those feelings perfectly, thank you'.
