Motherhood has come with many surprises (more and more every day). They may not be the same for everyone, but these are things I've discovered:
1) Showering is a much bigger priority than ever before (if I didn't shower on the weekends, I was perfectly happy).
2) Motherhood didn't come naturally. I have wanted to be a mom for my entire life. I've always thought of myself as being nurturing and thought that motherhood would be completely natural for me. That's completely untrue, though. I feel like I don't have a maternal instinct at all. I question every decision I make and don't even have much of a gut feeling about most things.
3) Nursing isn't nearly as convenient as you'd think. You would think that since the food is always with you, you could feed the baby anywhere and
