You Know You're A Mummy When.........

Inspired by a post with the same title by the very lovely Lauren from Real Housewife Of Suffolk County, where I could sooooo relate to what Lauren wrote, I decided to write my own post as hers really made me smile.

See if any of these are familiar with you

You know you're a mummy when:

*You refer to yourself and you partner as Mummy and Daddy all the time, even when the children are not in the same room!

*You would prefer a good nights sleep to a night of passion

*The ends of your hair are matted from baby sick

*There is always a new stain on your clothes either baby drool, sick, food or snot

*You find yourself glad (maybe even a teeny bit excited!)when a new series of Show Me Show Me or some other Cbeebies programme starts so you don't have to watch a repeat yet again



*Instead of a handbag you carry round a shoulder bag filled with all manner of baby and/or toddler essentials, and there is only just enough room for your purse and mobile phone. No room for hairbrush, make up etc... The things you used to carry around with you during your pre-mummy days

*You wonder how you ever survived without baby wipes

*You don't remember the last time you enjoyed a long soak in the bath either by yourself or for longer than 3 minutes

*Your idea of going to a show to see a live act is now seeing In The Night Garden Live several times


*You don't remember a day passing when you didn't have a load of washing to do

*You tweet about poo

*When your OH complains about his dinner, you tell him he had better eat it all else he won't get a sticker

*You find yourself thinking "oh that was a nice poo" and being grateful when changing a nappy, - since when was any poo 'nice' ?

*You find yourself clapping, dancing or singing along to CBeebies programmes while your child just looks at you

*You don't read books that don't contain illustrations

What else would you add to the list? Why not write your own - can't wait to hear yours x
