I was thinking about how we are all around the 3 month mark, and not only are our babies growing, we are growing as mothers! What's something silly you did in the beginning?
Me? I used to change DS's clothes every time he spit up. Ha! That got old real fast!
Re: Silly things I did when I was a brand new mom...
I will be back to this thread to add more!
I too would change their clothes any time someone got anything on them. Also they always had to look cute even when just at home. Now I throw on them whatever is clean and save the cute for when we leave the house.
They also had to match/coordinate and now I don't care as long as they are dressed.
I would fold/hang and put away so nicely their clothes and iron their shirts and pants if needed. Now all their clothes are in a basket in their room and I just dig.

I would check him on the video monitor like every 5 minutes when he was sleeping. Now I know he STTN most nights I only check if I hear him start to fuss.
And I did the same thing with the Swaddler Diapers, changing them when the line was the littlest bit green.
I just feel like I KNOW him so much better now than I did when I first brought him home, so I stress less about the little things that I used to stress over in the beginning.
I used to change his diaper when he'd wake up hungry from a nap, before feeding him - because, omg, his diaper was wet/dirty! I thought he hated diaper changes. No, he was hungry and didn't get why it was taking so long to give him the boob!
I also "saved" certain outfits for the public, and he ended up wearing them once - or never - because he grew so fast.
I still do that.
