I wish people had told me lots of things but just a couplethat come to mind:

1. With a little boy you have to make sure their little willy is pointing down the way when you put on the nappy or they end up all wet. (went through 3 sets of pj's and sheets one night soon after arriving home from hospital and couldn't work out what I was doing wrong!!!)

2. I'd heard of projectile vomits but not projectile poos. Beware the breast fed bubba's!!

Being a Mum is everything you think it will be and then some.

Wonderful
Challenging
Exciting
Exhausting
Amazing
and life altering and I wouldn't change a thing.....
