Things I've learnt since becoming a Mummy

Source

In no particular order:

• There is such a thing as love at first sight.
• Time passes too quickly.
• Baby brain really does exist.
• Routines are important for Mummy and baby.
• Its true that nothing prepares you for being a parent.
• A baby does have different cries and it is possible to recognise what they mean.
• My body is amazing.
• It is possible for me to function on a few hours sleep.
• Preparation and organisation. E suffers from car sickness, meaning I have to be prepared even for short journeys.
• To trust my instinct.
• Little milestones will make me so happy and proud I could burst.
• What busy really is!
• No matter how hard I try to plan things, flexibility and changes will be required at some point.
• Things that were important before, aren't now.
• I was meant to be a Mummy.
• Baby slobber, sick and wee really isn't that bad.
• There is nothing better than a smile from my baby, along with slobbery kisses.
• Being a Mummy really is the best - and hardest - job in the world.
• To be thankful for every moment.
• To avoid the colour white!
