One thing the baby books definitely don’t tell you is that being a mum is sometimes just like being back at school.
Never mind the sex ed and biology lessons, education prepared you for life with a little one in ways that you may not have thought about before. Here are 11 similarities between motherhood and secondary school…
1.Your body changes in ways you never thought possible.
(But that doesn’t stop you from looking in the mirror at any given opportunity.)
2. The opposite sex just DON’T understand.
3. You get overexcited about the thought of having a drink.
(Even though you are a total lightweight.)
4. You sometimes feel like a bit of a loner.
5. Everyone is always talking about sex, but nobody is really getting any.
6. Your hormones are ALL OVER THE PLACE.
7. You spend a lot of time hanging around parks and shopping centres.
8. Even though they mean well, your parents can be SO annoying.
9. There are cliques; there is drama.
10. You’d be lost without your wingman.
