Everyone tells you how AMAZING being a mom is going to be. There is so much hype about how becoming a mom is life altering and that it is the greatest blessing you can receive. I’m not going to sit here and argue either of those points, but I will tell you that for some of us… it’s not what we expected. I love my children beyond measure, but I’ll be honest, I wasn’t sure I was cut out for this “mommy thing” those first few months.
Those first few months are hard, and it doesn’t make it any easier that other moms don’t fess up to it. Taking care of a newborn baby can be exhausting and overwhelming, so we have went ahead and collected these hilarious pics which prove that being a mom ain’t easy.
