When you had a baby- what you expected Vs Reality!

[StrawberryMumma]

On the other hand I never expected to love so much and to fall in love every single day. I never expected how I would feel watching my gorgeous DH with my girl...my heart melts every time I hear and see them together. I never knew how protective and selfless I would become as a mother. I never expected to be so proud to call myself a mum and how proud I am whenever I have to say "my daughter" I still pinch myself at times....

Yep exactly!

:LOL: lee,

I told DH that I had been waking up looking for him, and he said yeah I know you've been saying some pretty weird things in your sleep too.

are you lieing on the baby, get off the baby where is he??

To which DH reply's he's in his own bed, and I go back to snoring.

That's funny! Sleep sure does some weird things to us sometimes doesn't it!

I thought of another big thing I didn't expect (not sure if anyone has mentioned it already??)
GUILT! But over simple things...does she have a dummy too much?? Should she even have a dummy?? Do I pick her up too much?? Not enough?? Do DH and I argue around her when we shouldn't?? Do I have enough milk??! I forgot to take my multivit..blah blah..it goes on and on.................
