How hard it is… and how much you love them anyway. The rollercoaster of being so tired you want to cry, but also crying because you love their little squishy face so much.
Also: how much poop, laundry, and crying (theirs and yours) one tiny human can create. And how you’re still standing. Somehow.
It’s messy, raw, ridiculous—and completely worth it. You’ve got this, mama. Even when it feels like you don’t.
