While many of us might have pulled all-nighters in college or at work, the sleep deprivation that comes with a newborn is a whole new ballgame.

Those sleepless nights hit differently when you’re soothing a tiny human who just can’t settle down because their sock fell off or they’re suddenly hungry again.

As a new parent, you quickly take on a new full-time job: diaper duty. And it’s not always straightforward.

Whether it’s a diaper blowout at the most inconvenient moment or realizing you’re down to your last wipe, every day brings a new challenge.

And then there’s the crying. Decoding why your baby is upset feels like solving a mystery with no clues. Are they tired? Hungry? Overstimulated? Or just bored?

You’ll run through every possibility, only to sometimes find that they just want to be held while you sway endlessly. By the end of the day, you might be crying along with them—and that’s okay too.

Feeding a newborn is its own adventure. From struggles with latching to mastering the perfect bottle angle, it’s a learning curve like no other. And the spit-ups? Let’s just say you’ll have to develop a special skill for dodging them.

Then there’s the laundry. You’ll discover that babies can go through more outfit changes in a single day than a runway model. Between their clothes, burp cloths, and your own spit-up-stained wardrobe, the washing machine becomes your most-used appliance.

Then, as if parenting wasn’t challenging enough, the unsolicited advice rolls in. Everyone—from strangers in line to your distant relatives—suddenly becomes an expert on how to raise your child.

“You’re spoiling them by holding them too much,” or, “Back in my day, we didn’t even have car seats,” they’ll say. It’s best to smile, nod, and remember: you’re doing just fine.

One of the greatest challenges? Getting your baby to sleep—and sneaking out of the room afterward. It’s an art form. You tiptoe like a ninja, holding your breath and avoiding the squeaky floorboard. But if they wake up? Well, it’s back to square one.
