1. Motherhood is the hardest job you'll ever love.
2. Catheter removal after a spinal/epidural is...yikes. It hurt to pee for 8 days later. Wowza.
3. There is such a thing as night sweats after delivery. It sucks.
4. Always have burp cloths around the house---in spare bedroom, in nursery, downstairs by the couch. You'll always need one at the time when they're all tucked away in the closet.
5. Plan an easy escape if the little one throws a tantrum. This happened to me on Friday and we ended up walking outside of the mall in 20 degree temperatures because Lamb was SCREAMING.
6. Avent bottles suck. They leak all of the time. I wish I would have known this BEFORE I placed them in my new Kate Spade diaper bag. At least my bag is vinyl and washes easily. I will never spend a lot on a diaper bag again...even my big COACH bag will not see a bottle in it...EVER. We are using Dr. Brown's and they're great.
7. It's not about you anymore...it's all about the baby. But that's okay--whenever she receives a gift it's like it's also for the mom to enjoy too...I love it!
