What is one thing....

[harmonicker]

...that you have learned about yourself after becoming a parent?

[Bikil]

I can get by on a LOT less sleep than I thought! And I never thought it was possible to love my husband more than I already did, but it is! He's amazing!

[naomifrederickmd]

That I have more patience then I ever thought possible and they are the best project I have ever been involved in!

[PaxMamma]

children change you in EVERY way!

[Asher]

Love for my baby encompasses everything. Changing diapers, less sleep, loss of independence, none of it is a bad thing because it's for him and he's worth anything.:heart

[yarngoddess]

Everything is magnified. My love for DH, the relationship I though I would have with my children is SO much more!, my passion for life and living well, my view of the world is so much bigger becuase I see it not for me, but for my kids.

That it all really only comes down to the baby/child. Everything that I thought was important is really only a minor thing compared to the importance of my children.

[cmsobleo]

That I really didnt have a CLUE beforehand.
That maternal instinct is primal.
That motherhood is a journey and that if you surrender to that journey it will enrich your life is innumerable ways exponentially!

[layla]

that though you can trust others never ignore yourself. that mama instinct is powerful

[Baby Boy Names]

That I can endure a lot of pain I've never known before and still be thankful, happy and satisfied since its the only way that my children can come to this world. That I can give up everything for their sake with no second thoughts...that I can be selfless.

i've learned to love, really love unconditionally... and i also learned what being loved unconditionally really feels like... this is the most important lesson for me so far...
