As they say: don’t compare yourself to other mothers! Everyone’s losing it, some just hide it better than others…
You can never describe how challenging (and rewarding of course) motherhood is.
Something you would never change the world.. right?!?
Well, maybe not change but may ex-change for just a decent nights sleep every now and then.
Sleep deprivation, exhaustion, Irritability, Severe Yawning, hysterical laughter, then tears than laughter, Memory lapse or loss, even hallucinations – oh the trials and tribulations of being a Mum!
On the surface this may come across as being amusing, however, when you’re living through it it’s no laughing matter.
If you’re a Mum here’s 10 things I’m sure you can relate to:
- You know you’re a mum when you read text messages respond in your mind and put the phone down!
- You know you’re a mum when there is no room in your bed for you!
- You know you’re a mum when you’re about to go in for a wax, and your sister in law whispers “um….what’s that dripping from?” Yep. Forgotten to put the boob back in!
- You know you’re a Mum when you think it’s Vegemite under your fingernails but it’s not.
- You know you’re a mum when you ‘ make a smoothie using your own placenta, to ensure you don’t get the baby blues’.
- You know you’re a mum when your wardrobe is on the kitchen table.
- You know you’re a mum when you use to shop in Sheike & now Lorna Jane or Kmart is the only shop for you
- You know you’re a mum when a stone cold tea is the only tea you drink
- You know you’re a mum when you’re onto your 6th made cup of un-drunk tea so you give up
- You know you’re a mum when you spend more money on cleaning products than makeup.
stay tuned, we have more…
