Things We Wish Someone Would've Told Us About Postpartum Life

When you’re pregnant, you’re warned you’re going to need a lot of breast pads and you should definitely sleep when the baby sleeps. It seems like we're surrounded by tips, tricks, and advice about how to handle life postpartum. But honestly, there’s so many things we discover for ourselves, that no one ever warned us about. New moms are caught, blindsided, wondering what the heck just happened. Turns out, there’s a whole lot more to being postpartum than we ever saw coming.

Accordingly, we had moms open up about what they wish someone would have told them, and we’re here to share these lesser known parts of life after you have a baby. You’re welcome. Just remember to pay it forward to other pregnant women you know. They'll thank you later.
