Having a baby is a big decision. Here are lots of things to know before having a baby.

So, you want to have a baby? Be prepared for...

• Endless amounts of washing
• How normal it becomes to talk about poo
• Having a never ending to do list
• Changing several outfits per day on you/baby due to food/sick/wee/poo
• Wondering if you'll ever get a good night's sleep again
• Feeling tired.  All. The. Time.
• Being given advice from anyone and everyone about how to raise a child
• Saying 'it goes so fast/they grow so fast' at least a zillion times 
• Having an audience when you shower/wee/cook/clean/anything...
• Drinking cold cups of tea
• Taking up to 45 minutes just to leave the house
• Watching reruns of Peppa Pig for at least three years
• Becoming a taxi, PA, cook, cleaner, dietician, nurse, doctor, teacher, carer...

But, that’s not all!

You must also be prepared for…

• Feeling the most love & happiness you have ever felt for anyone ever
• Having the best, most rewarding job in the world
• Never being bored again
• Finding simple things so incredible again
• Appreciating time with your partner or by yourself so much more
• Laughing and smiling every day
• Feeling the most pleasure you can ever imagine when your children smile/laugh/learn something/be themselves/hug you, etc
• Seeing the world through a tiny persons eyes and how much amazement it holds
• Enjoying life so much more 
• Not being able to put into words how much you truly adore your children 

Because, really, having children is the most amazing experience ever :)
