You know you're a mommy when....

lovethatcolosun · July 2015

I figured the, "You know you're pregnant when..." thread was a hit, so why not start a mommy one since we're all on the other side.

You know you're a mom when...

-your child says, "Can you hold my cup so I can cry?"

-you pick your new car based on leg room after a car seat is installed.

You talk about your nipples in regular conversation and don't realize you're making other people uncomfortable.

It takes you 30 minutes to get out the door and make sure you don't forget the diaper bag, snacks, etc. you have no qualms about breastfeeding in front of family (I cover with a blanket but my FIL gave me a scared look yesterday when I whipped off my shirt to feed LO)

You can function and multitask with only 4 hours of broken sleep because...

Even when you're dead tired after cluster feeding a newborn you stay up late making homemade cough syrup for your sick toddler.

You're excited about someone else's bodily functions.

You don't even realize what your SIL is laughing about when you are pumping wearing a hands free bra and talking to her.

Speaking of which my husband took one look at me while wearing it (black strapless) and said "You should paint a mustache above your belly button and call yourself Bandit the Bank Robber". I almost peed I was laughing so hard. Thankfully I had a csection so I didn't

You wipe spit up with your shirt when you don't have a burp cloth near.

Lol I did this tonight for the first time. Figured I was already covered in it anyway, so why not. I always have to wipe the baby off first. I feel bad if I leave him with spit up on his face while I'm wiping it off of me.

...before you can fall asleep at night despite sheer exhaustion setting in- you must check on each of your kiddos as well as whenever you wake up in the middle of the night.

Sammy K · July 2015

...you constantly hear phantom baby noise.

...poop is a legitimate excuse for anything.

...you have uttered the phrase "just give me the booger."

...trips to the grocery store by yourself feel like a vacation.

virginiaunicorn11 · July 2015

...the song "London Bridge" has been stuck in your head for four days...

...to the point where you keep singing it to your LO but with your own words

("Let's chaaaange your diaper, it's poopy, it's poopy, it's poopy. Let's change your diaper, it's poopy, and no one's sur-prised!")

I have to add what just happened tonight:
...you figure out now to hold a 10lb newborn like a football while you wipe 3yr olds bottom in the bathroom so she will stop yelling "I NEED A WIPEY!!!" While baby sleeps in your arms.

HayesRN13 · July 2015

Excited to go to target or store to get essentials because LO stays with dad...and take your sweet time because it's actually a break

laurendutch · July 2015

You are excited to catch puke in your hands because than you don't have to clean the carpets/couch!

KarasTwin · July 2015

You wear makeup so infrequently that when you do, you have to constantly remind yourself not to rub your tired eyes or it's going to smudge everywhere.

lwyz · July 2015

...when your husband points out the corner of a pillow that was near LO with a wet diaper and you just don't care whether it's pee or not and go back to sleep.

lovethatcolosun · July 2015

You leave a wet spot in your bed...and it's breast milk. 8-}

elizab14 · July 2015

You hold your baby while you sit on the toilet.

This just happened.

MaliKaela · July 2015

All of your google searches are baby related and from the predict function you can tell they've all been queried before.

esampson1983 · July 2015

You don't remember what you talked about with people prior to baby being born.

lwhrmomma · July 2015

Getting four hours of consecutive sleep is better than Christmas morning.

esampson1983 · July 2015

No one cares to see you anymore, they just want to see the baby...

when people you dont even know want to come to your house to see the baby.

bethanne09 · July 2015

When family you have never met is taking a vacation down to see the baby.

When you realize mid-sandwich that the mustard on your hand is probably poop.

When you sit around boobs out not caring who is over.

When you can have a normal conversation while being milked like a cow by a crazy boob-vacuum.
