Before my first child was born, I figured this motherhood thing would be easy. Babies eat, sleep, and poop, right? Breastfeeding was natural, I figured. He would sleep when he was tired. And I’d changed diapers before, so no problem!
As every mother knows, this is not how it works.
I was lucky in that breastfeeding did come naturally. But the sleep and the poop… Oy vey.
