The orthodox belief is that Mary is the mother of the whole second person of the Holy Trinity, not just of one of the two natures of Christ. Nestorianism, although a subtler heresy than can be explained in a short post, is to deny her mothership of Christ's divine nature, which, I am afraid, my friends on this thread might be tempted to do.
