42 Things That Change When You Have a Baby...

I get "baby" emails on daily basis about baby development and parenthood. Some of them are very educational, some are fun and entertaining, some are nerdy, some are dumb. Today I got on with the title "42 Things That Change When you Have a Baby." Some of them made me laugh, and some made me say," How true..."

You find that your baby's pain feels much worse than your own.
Your heart breaks much more easily.
You think of someone else 234,836,178,976 times a day
You look at your baby in the mirror instead of yourself.
You find yourself wanting to make this world a better place
Your love becomes limitless, a superhuman power.
Where you once believed you were fearless, you now find yourself afraid.
You can have the most wonderful conversation using only vowel sounds like "ahhh" and "oooo."
If you didn’t believe in love at first sight before, now you do!

The funny ones:
You become a morning person.
Bodily functions are no longer repulsive. In fact, they please you. (Hooray for poop!)
You discover how much there is to say about one tooth
You give parents with a screaming child an 'I-know-the-feeling' look instead of a 'Can't-they-shut-him-up?' one.
You finally find out the real reason you have those breasts :)

Yes, since having a baby life has changed. It has been exciting and fun, challenging and trying...Its not about me anymore, its about this little guy in my lap. Its not easy, and every day brings something new. But I wouldnt have it any other way!
