13 Things Only Mums Can Relate To

I'm really hoping this can be a funny lighthearted post that all us mums can relate to and enjoy in a non judgemental way, I start by saying this because as a mum your judged or can be made to feel weather its directly or unintentionally through social media or family that your either not doing things right or your doing things wrong and I know I especially do,I'm forever comparing myself to other mums. And I like to think all mums can relate to a few things down below because we are all mothers and were not always perfect!

1. Forgetting how many scoops your putting in the bottle and just putting what u think in even if its wrong because 'one time won't do any harm' 

2. Carrying nappy bags and always forgetting to use them( probably why a pack of nappy bags seem to last about 10 years)

3. Knocking your child's head on the door when trying to get them in the car ( we have all done it)

4. Crying at 3 in the morning because you haven't slept through the night in weeks and wishing you'd never done this whole motherhood thing and then in the morning forgetting about it.

5. FOREVER BUYING BABY CLOTHES

6. Letting your child watch TV for far to long because it keeps them quiet ( I am very guilty of doing this)

7 .Holding your baby's bottle for the first few weeks and then just propping it up with something because they become so heavy it feels like your arm could break off after 2 minutes and your hand starts going numb as their head cuts off the blood supply to your hand.

8 .Your child's dummy falls out onto any floor or surface and just wiping it off and say it'll be fine and give it back to them ( remember when they were newborn and they would spit it out on to the sofa and it would have to be immediately sterilised before they could have it back )

9. Baby is a bit sick on themselves at home and instead of changing them 7 times a day going ' oh it'll dry '

10. Some days your just counting down the hours till bedtime

11. Re arranging baby classes or groups more times than you care to say because you just wake up so tired and cant be bothered

12. Some days you just cant be FUCKED and you just stay In your pj's all day ( I have a few of these days when Arlo is sleeping badly)

And finally..

13. Putting your baby or child to bed and getting into bed yourself and really missing them and wanting to wake them up for a cuddle ( the things you want and the things you would ever do in a million years are two very different things)
