I forgot...


  • How small newborns are
  • How many diapers you go through in a day
  • How often they eat
  • How painful nursing is at first (thank goodness that phase is over)
  • How when nursing, they start to choke and you have milk spraying all over their face
  • How you feel like you're covered in milk all the time 
  • How often you change clothes because of blowouts and spit up 
  • How as a mother you don't mind the smell of their blowouts or spit up 
  • How fast they grow 
  • How holding them while sleeping is so peaceful and therapeutic 
  • How you feel so unproductive because you can't seem to lay them down 
  • How excited you get when they sleep one extra hour longer than expected 
  • How Functional you are with just a couple of hours sleep 
  • How you can just stare at them forever
  • How each noise while their sleeping makes you get out of bed to check on them
  • How they aren't making any noise while sleeping makes you get out of bed to check on them
  • How frustrated such a small little thing can make you
  • How you can be so in love with them for only being in your life for such a short time 
But I won't forget how grateful, blessed and in love I am with my newborn.
