I’m not going to lie, I knew next to nothing about babies, and children in general, until well after I gave birth. Actually, I’m still not sure I know that much. Going into the whole parenthood thing, I had this vision in my head that babies mostly slept all day. And that there was some feeding, diaper changes, and cuddles in between. Needless to say, my illusions about what having a baby would be like, were far from reality.
