You Know You're A New Mom When:
Your new bed time is anytime your child is sleeping whether it's nine in the morning or five in the evening. You sleep whenever you can.
Some weeks you shower two or three times a day or some days not at all.
Meals become once or twice a day instead of three times a day.
If you get breakfast, it's usually closer to lunch time.
You wash your own bed sheets more now than you ever have due to pee, puke, and poop!
It's very rare you get to eat your dinner hot or even warm for that matter.
You always smell like sour milk.
Your hair is in a constant pony tail.
You use the restroom and take a shower with little eyes watching.
You get peed, pooped, or puked on multiple times a day.
You carry extra clothes for yourself in your car everywhere you go.
You have to find time to brush your teeth or hair.
You're constantly lifting ten pounds or more despite what your doctor tells you.
Your sister becomes your best friend with the best advice. She understands you more than anyone else.
Getting ready in the mornings is brushing your teeth and using the restroom. The rest gets fit in in between feedings and diaper changes.
You have people constantly asking you how you're doing.
People bring you food and even desserts for a couple weeks straight.
Laundry is overflowing out of two or three different baskets.
You learn to eat, write, and do chores left handed or one handed.
Dates with your significant other becomes fifteen minutes of alone time with each other or constant crying in the background. You long for alone time with just him!
If you go it out on a date, there's three instead of two.
Your car becomes full of burp rags and blankets.
You actually sort laundry by who it belongs to instead of by color.
Sleeping for more than five hours becomes very rare if ever.
The dishwasher becomes your best friend.
You always have an extra body in your room at bedtime, when changing, etc
You have a screaming baby in the back seat of the car and there's nothing you can do about it.
You change more diapers than you used the restroom in your third pregnancy.
A bouncer sits outside your bathroom door.
Your living room becomes infested with baby swings, toys, diapers, wipes, blankets, a boppy, etc.
You wear the same four or five outfits everywhere.
You have small, beautiful blue eyes that look into yours and your heart melts.
You never thought something so small could be so precious.
You get that feeling of being loved when he's crying uncontrollably and you pick him up and he lays his head on your chest and lets out those sighs from crying and calms down
immediately knowing mommy has him.
A sleeping baby in your arms is very relaxing.
When you have little hands touching you that feels like water dripping down you.
