When you load baby & diaper bag into the car to go to the pediatrician's and before loading yourself in, you realize that you still have your monkey slippers on...
...you get so excited that LO is starting to grab things with his hands!!! And then the next time you're nursing him, you feel those tiny razor claws gripping your new muffin top...and aren't sure whether to laugh or cry!
... you cry when hearing sad stories in the news, hoping with everything that you can protect your LO from the big, bad world.
... you know getting sleep should be a priority, and your eyelids are begging to close, yet you stare longingly at the little creature asleep in your arms for inordinate amounts of time instead.
You put LO in the rock n play to see if they like it to decide to return it or not and she has a giant poop blowout all over it...better learn to love this thing, child.

Sorry for the poor man's siggy...ticker won't load regardless of how many tips I read.
When you learn that you can fall asleep in any position at any time of day. I often do that nod thing and wake myself up. DH laughs because I can be eating, sitting up, talking and bam in out for a sec.
When you get a sip of warm coffee and it's heavenly... And you realize you haven't managed to have a single sip while it's still warm in the two weeks since LO arrived.
Re: You know you have a newborn when..
When a spray of breast milk doesn't faze you...I was not prepared for the messiness of breast milk.
(Actually, I just laughed really hard!)
