What are some things that no one ever told you that becoming a Mommy would do to you?
For example---
I knew that my body would change- I knew that I could probably get the weight off. But I didn't know that post baby that my pre baby clothes still may not fit right because my body had changed.

Re: What are some things that no one ever told you that becoming a Mommy would do to you?
I never knew just how many stretch marks one body could hold
I didn't know my boobs would get so saggy even though I am so young 
Believe it or not NO ONE told me sex after the baby was born would hurt like mother f'er. I actually cried 
This is something they told me but I never could understand... the unconditional love for your child no matter what

What is was like to have an episotomy (sp?)! You can't laugh, cough or sit down quickly because you feel like you might break a suture!
And the butt problems as mention before. Unfortnately, many women suffer from hemmorrids during pregnancy and especially during the "pushing" for a vaginal delievery. One word HORRIBLE!!!

I was never told that you can get stretch marks from deflating. I had 2 stretch marks my entire PG. Now that my baby is out i noticed that i am getting more of them on my inner thighs and hips.

I never knew that your boobs change the way the do. I mean I knew they changed but without getting too descriptive, I didn't know that it was something that you could tell the difference between a woman who has had kids and one who hasn't just by looking at them naked.

No one ever told me that post partum can be so bad. I had it but not that I wouldn't hold the baby or anything but that I would cry on the drop of a dime I would have mood swings and just wanted to be left alone

no one ever told me someone would love to hear me sing! i have a horrible voice.

This was an email that went around awhile ago that explains to a tee what no one told me...how nothing in my life would ever be the same and how I wouldn't change it for anything in the world.
That was the most beautiful thing I have ever read. Thank you so much for posting this.
