Having a baby will lead to many exciting experiences for moms that books do not mention. Let’s explore 7 humorous things only moms with toddlers can understand:

1. Full storage Always: Mom’s Phone Contains 1,000 photos of her Toddler:
Mom has never been in a situation where her phone has so many photos because the moments with her toddlers are adorable. Your toddlers can babble and sing, show their mother their newly completed Lego construction, play with water, or finish coloring a picture. The situation gets even worse for your phone’s capacity when moms with toddlers go out to explore some strange places.
2. The Precious Me Time for Moms with Toddlers:
Moms often get advice to reduce stress and have more time for themselves; they should wake up early at 5 am to drink coffee or have more quiet time to relax. However, it’s quite funny when you try to wake up at 5:00 am, and your toddler wakes up at 05:01 am. There is a strange thing about your toddler’s ability to wake up at any time within 1 minute after you wake up.
Toddlers find it unbearable to be left alone. They will always be within visual range and are aware of their moms’ locations. Moms using the restroom are included in this. Moms know that no matter how much they need them, those five minutes of silence she could have with the door closed will probably not materialize. She WILL be found by the toddlers very soon!
3. Fashion Contrast between Moms and Toddlers
For convenience in taking care of a toddler, most moms’ fashion tends to be simple, with clothes that are somewhat sloppy as long as they are comfortable moving and respond immediately to unexpected situations caused by their toddlers, such as spilling water or food from tables.
Meanwhile, toddlers will be dressed in neat outfits by moms and receive compliments from others about the baby’s cuteness.
4. The Copycat
Toddlers can copy everything their moms do. From wearing high heels, walking around the house, or using their mom’s lipstick when she’s distracted to how to talk on the phone like an adult.
Except for sleeping, however. Toddlers will not sleep right away when moms need them to.
5. The Calendar Review:
Discovering that none of your other mother’s friends are free for the next five years as you try to arrange plans with them.
The truth is that moms’ daily life with toddlers revolves around their children, who always need them. Moms have almost no time to hang out with friends unless they have someone else to help them look after their babies. Even when finding someone to care for the child, moms cannot stay away from their child for too long. As a result, the appointment with friends can be postponed to a later date (maybe several years later!).
6. Agree with Your Toddler that Both must always Tell the Truth, but After that…
These are extremely common conversations between moms and children:
- Mom to kids: “We don’t lie.”
- Also, Mom: “I just called the zoo; it’s closed today!”. Or “This TV is broken; let’s go to sleep.”
7. Productivity Definition:
If left unsupervised for a minute, your toddler can produce more things than most people can do in a day.
Don’t think that toddlers are not productive. Their energy is always at a very high level, which adults have difficulty keeping up with. In just a few short minutes, they can turn a room that took you all day to clean into a room full of toys scattered all over the floor. Or if you try playing with them, you will be the one who gets tired very quickly while they continue to say, “Keep flying, Mom!”.
Conclusion
Like every other mama, you fall into a whirlwind of craziness you didn’t remember signing up for. So, why don’t we just laugh together? Toddler time is too short; enjoy the precious moments you find your way.
