A New Mom's Life

You will wonder, at least a few times in your baby’s life, how one little person can possibly have so much output.

After using a few brands, you’ll find out pretty quickly which diaper brand works best for you. You will feel very strongly about this, because the brand that sucks causes poo to leak everywhere, including your baby’s clothes, the car seat, and sometimes even you.

Some moms like Pampers better. Others say Huggies is cheaper and fits better on boys. You’ll find out soon enough which is better for your baby.

You will sniff your baby’s bum more times in a day than you care to admit. It’s necessary, and saves you from diaper rashes and the occasional poo-nami.

Before you had a baby, you heard moms talk in excruciating detail about poo. During lunch. And they went on and on. And you said to yourself, “I will never do that.”

Then one day you have a baby. You spend your day changing upwards of 15 diapers a day. You have a lot to talk about – frequency, colour, consistency, smell - and you start talking about it endlessly before you can even catch yourself doing it. You are now one of those poo-talking moms. :(

You will get peed on and pooed on at least once in your life. Hopefully you will have a change of clothes handy.
