Things you wish they told you before you had baby!

oh gosh

i wish somone had told me not to believe what the so called experts tell you, and go with you're mummie gut feeling cause its ok to tellem to get buggered.

That its ok to cry and it doesnt make you a bad mum.

That you change as a person when you have a baby and its ok to still have a life

I wish I knew it was ok to tell people to GO AWAY when they were annoying me. I was silly and didnt tell people to go away and ended up absolutely exploding one day at someone because I had had so many people just visiting and being more of a hinderance than a help. Its nice to have visitors and all, but not if theyre just going to stand there expecting you to talk to them when all you want to do is sleep.

Dont let people make you feel guilty because you breastfeed baby to sleep/cant breastfeed/have a dirty house/dont let your baby cry.

Go with your instinct. Its ok to smile and say thanks when people give you advice that you have absolutely no intention of using. We got so much advice and at the time I just said thanks, but when I went away and though about it, I just though there is no way I am doing that to my baby.
