We get aggravated when we are uncomfortable in pregnancy. We get aggravated if our babies aren't born on the exact projected date. We lose patience when our babies don't eat, sleep, or behave exactly as we expect them to. (And this is EVERY mom, to varying degrees!)

WHAT IF...

Babies got aggravated with US when we couldn't comfort them immediately. Babies got aggravated and angry when we couldn't figure out how to breastfeed right off, or give them the correct formula on the first try. Babies got pissed when we didn't meet their expectations for sleep and play. Like, aggravated and pissed enough to bash our parenting or say they wished for other parents.

THEY. ARE. PEOPLE. Small people...but PEOPLE. And they are NEW. A few days or weeks of life is NOT enough time to be anything but inexperienced.

I said all that to say this" A MOTHER IS BORN EVERY TIME A BABY IS. WE LEARN THEM AS THEY LEARN US. ❤ Remember to be patient and kind with baby. AND ALSO, YOURSELF!
