You know you're a mom when, IF you can get in the shower during the day, you sing children's songs at the top of your lungs so your baby won't cry and you can get a full shower in. And on that same note, you know you're a mom when you almost trip over the rock-n-play that came into the bathroom with you for said shower... Every. Single. Time.
THIS!!!! glad I'm not the only one. You know your a new mom when you ask dh if he can hold the baby when he gets home from work so you can finish the shower you started five hours ago...because you only had time to shave one leg before LO hit full blown meltdown mode
When you put the baby to bed around 7 after an awful fussy day....but right around 10 you just want to go in the room and pick her up because you miss her so much.
You know you're a new mom when you're so sleep deprived that you get in the car to go somewhere with LO and have your car keys in one hand and pacifier in the other and are sitting there trying to use the pacifier to start the car and getting irritated because you can figure out why it won't start!!
When you forget to eat because you're too busy taking care of baby, then your breastfeeding body freaks out because you haven't eaten all day! I swear, this hunger is almost worse than when I was pregnant!
@Escardoe This is so me!! I am always bringing anything we talk out back to baby stuff! Feel like a bad wife sometimes cuz I never ask DH how his day was anymore!

This. I've had so many days where I've forgotten to eat or drink anything and I get so dehydrated that I literally can't see for an hour.

While making oatmeal you put curry instead of cinnamon. (They are both the same color!!!)
