Before I became a mother, I never imagined I’d find myself asking, “Is it acceptable for my child to use my sock as a substitute for toilet paper?” Or when my toddler decided to sprinkle her great-grandparents’ ashes in her hair, I thought, “Just how much soap does it take to get human remains out of hair?” Spoiler alert: It takes a lot. Now, I find myself grappling with these questions—and there’s no turning back.
Here are 25 additional inquiries I never expected to ponder once motherhood became my reality:
- Is that chocolate or something far worse?
- Oh no, will anyone notice my mismatched shoes?
- Can a baby really drain my life force through breastfeeding?
- Ketchup definitely counts as a vegetable, right?
- How is it possible that I have a degree and can’t solve this second-grade math problem?
- Does wrestling my child into her clothes count as a workout?
- Did my mom also hide in the bathroom for some peace?
- How long can a child actually live on just toast?
- Is it feasible for my ears to explode from the sheer volume of noise?
