WATCH: The kind of parenting advice you’ll probably want to hear

10 Things I Wish I'd Known Before Having a Baby

Sive O'Brien

If there was one guarantee about becoming a new parent it would be that you’re going to be on the receiving end of a lot of advice. Whether you ask for it or not.

Unsolicited advice from everyone you’ve ever known (and some you’ve never met) might be up there as one of the top pet peeves among new parents (it was for me anyway), but sometimes, just sometimes, you might hear something that is worth remembering.

A lovely video from Extra Space Storage called ’10 Things I Wish I’d Known Before Having a Baby’ has caught our attention because it features lots of HELPFUL nuggets of advice for parents-to-be, from mums and dads who have been there and done that. We especially like the final bit of advice, which doesn’t come from a parent, but a young boy who speaks a lot of sense.

Have a listen to the gentle words of wisdom for yourself, but make sure you have a tissue ready as it all gets a bit emotional at the end.
