21. You become paranoid
A sniffle could possibly turn into a medical emergency, right?
22. Car seats have an expiry date
Yes, these very important safety items and they do expire so make sure that kids don’t go sitting on these that you already have.
23. Sitting in a parked car for hours while baby sleeps
You might as well prepare for regular drives around the neighbourhood and then staying inside the car while it is being parked to make sure your baby’s sleep isn’t disturbed. Do make sure NEVER to leave your baby inside a hot car!
24. Or running on the tap whilst holding the baby nearby
White noises often help get the baby to sleep. A white noise machine also does great if you don’t want to use the tap.
25. Your body sways, baby or no baby
That rocking motion just involuntarily goes into your system.
26. Memorising nursery rhyme
Nursery rhymes just naturally become part of you, you won’t even notice you’re singing them again.
27. Mastering multitasking
Mums are superwoman after all: cooking, taking care of the baby, cleaning the house? We get all that done in one go.
