Things that change when you have a baby

fea_sad
By fea_sad

1. You finally stop to smell the roses, because your baby is in your arms.
2. Where you once believed you were fearless, you now find yourself afraid.
3. The sacrifices you thought you made to have a child no longer seem like sacrifices.
4. You respect your parents and love them in a new way.
5. You find that your baby's pain feels much worse than your own.
6. You lose touch with the people in your life whom you should have banished years ago.
7. Your heart breaks much more easily.
8. Every day is a surprise.
9. Bodily functions are no longer repulsive. In fact, they please you. (Hooray for poop!)
10. You look at your baby in the mirror instead of yourself.
11. You become a morning person.
12. Your love becomes limitless, a superhuman power.
13. Silence? What's that?
14. You no longer rely on a clock — your baby now sets your schedule."
15. If you didn’t believe in love at first sight before, now you do!
16. You now know where the sun comes from.
17. Nothing is just yours any longer. You share EVERYTHING

god,cant imagine what life would that be? but anyway tfs.

Sure things will really change. I dont even know if im ready to give up my single life and yeah maybe im just young.. Im curious with what people say everytime they make a sermon to me.."You'll understand everything when you become a mother" and my mom used to tell me: "Im sure once you become a mother,you'll never let ur child do the things that you're doing now.".. Made me realize,am i that bad? :(
