Ten Fun Facts
10. Your baby will not wear all the newborn outfits you receive (unless you have a preemie). Oh sure, you think you'll change the baby's outfit 2 - 3 times a day; you won't because, NEWS FLASH, babies do not enjoy being changed and they will cry.
9. You will go through all those diapers you received as gifts. Tell those asking, "What do you still need?" to get diapers! Fo' realz.
8. You will go days without a shower/bath because you'd rather sleep or get chores done. Same goes for brushing your teeth and hair.
7. You will get pooped on, spit up on, peed on. Oh and yes even after the baby, you will still pee on yourself when you sneeze, cough or laugh too hard. (16+ weeks postpartum and it still happens to me *womp womp*)
6. You will cry, at some point out, of frustration. You will laugh about it later... maybe not the same day or week but at some point you'll chuckle to yourself.
5. It's a scientific fact. Once you've birthed a baby all ideas of decency and what is "publicly acceptable" are lost. You'll walk around the house with blinds open, half-dressed because the baby woke up while you were changing. Besides after all the poking and prodding during labor and delivery nothing on your body is sacred!
4. Speaking of labor and delivery, once you're at that point, you seriously will not care whether or not you poop while pushing.
3. You will need help! Don't be afraid to accept it or ask for it.
2. Your postpartum periods are almost as bad as the postpartum bleeding and there's no new baby to distract you from the ugliness of it.
1.You will stare at your baby in awe and be amazed that you created such a beautiful, perfect, little person.
