What changes when you have a baby? A better question may be: What doesn't change? Found these on a website n thought that what was written is really true.
Just 7 week and my life has COMPLETELY turned around! Jus a year ago, i wouldn't expect that i'll be able to wake up in the middle of the night esp every 2 hours to feed my baby but everytime when i sees him smiling at me, my heart would jus melt! :P
