- Baby "sleeping through the night" does not mean baby will sleep until you are ready to get up.
- The Dr.s weren't lying- You really do have to do your Kegel exercises or you really will pee yourself every time you sneeze or- god forbid- try to do a jumping jack.
- Your husband WILL look "down there" when you give birth, no matter how much he will say beforehand that he doesn't want to look "down there" and no matter how much you tell him he'd better not look "down there" or you will kill him.
- You DON'T forget the pain of labor when you hold your baby for the first time!
- It's okay to spend the first six weeks of parenthood wondering why they ever let you leave the hospital with this baby.
- Sleep deprivation is a really, really, very big deal.
- Being the very first of your friends to have a baby is no fun.
- Orange food means orange poop.
- Having 5 minutes of time all to yourself is the most glorious thing life can offer.
- Having a child means you can never stop worrying or spending money.
- Baby monitors were invented by mean people who hate sleep.
- Green food means green poop.
And most recently, we learned:
- Going away to a remote location for an extended period of time with a baby does NOT equal vacation.
And,
- It really does only take a second for a baby to get a mouthful of sand lodged in his mouth and up his nose!
