most of us are mommies by now (if not then hang in there just a little bit longer!). Use this thread to share your "mom confessions!" (Cred goes to May '16).
my confession is that I can't remember the last time I brushed my hair.
also, sometimes if I can't get LO to burp after 30 seconds I just give up and lay him down and basically just pretend he didn't need to burp. I'm horrible at burping.
Re: Mom Confessions
I also give up burping LO, and am sure everyone has seen my breasts now. Oh well!
I'm dying to know how you guys shower when you're home alone with baby - I haven't figured that out yet!
Burping is the death of me.
I've never cared less about exposing my breasts to the world, haha.
Little Ada has only slept in her bassinet for about 3 hours. Otherwise, it's been my arms, DH'S, and my mom's.
My confession, I'm meh on newborn age mostly because colic is awful and you feel helpless and your kid is miserable. I don't want to rush my son growing up just his digestive tract.

I've not brushed my teeth more times since I gave birth than I care to admit.
Oh and my kid is regularly covered in crumbs because I am pretty much always eating while nursing.
my confession: I am totally ready to resume having sex and most likely won't wait the full 6 weeks. With DS1 we only made it 2 weeks
we also already fooled around a bit and my boobs leaked so much it was embarrassing (not that DH cared much). Breastfeeding problems.
My confession: our first day home from the hospital I dropped a bunch of mac & cheese on my baby's head. DH laughed at me. Fast forward to 4 weeks later, and he dropped a whole spoonful of ice cream on her tummy. She doesn't seem to mind.
My confession is that about four this morning I was changing Lukas's diaper and he peed on my bed. I sure as hell wasn't going to strip the sheets at that time and I was exhausted. I threw a baby blanket over the pee and laid on that and went right back to sleep.
I also have worn the same clothes for, like, a week straight. I finally changed my shirt today to go out with my mom and sister.
I also haven't brushed my hair in nearly a week. Im afraid to ... in case something is living in there lol.
Now I have nipple blisters.
What the fuckkkkkkkk.
The other day, I thought it had only been a couple of days since I had showered last, but I realized that a few days before, I had actually just THOUGHT about showering. I'm also ashamed of the lack of teeth brushing.
I dropped part of a cookie on her head while she was asleep in the RnP. She flinched but was fine. I ate the piece I dropped.

I have managed to shower at least once a day, either during naptime or after DH gets home. Teeth brushing happens in the shower. But we have a video baby monitor that I've been putting to good use, definitely worth the investment.
With the burping, I've had a little success with if I don't get a good one if I'm sitting down, standing up and walking him to his changing pad usually gets the good big one we all strive for.
