1.
That undeniably sweet new baby smell you can never get enough of:
2.
But then again, all baby smells aren't so sweet, amirite?
3.
Chunky and totally pinchable little baby butt cheeks? Yes, please.
4.
But the explosive diapers that came with them? Hard pass.
5.
You totally miss fawning over all their adorable itty-bitty baby clothes.
6.
But not washing endless loads of all their adorable itty-bitty clothes.
7.
And how much did you melt over those out-of-the-blue open-mouthed kisses, you guys?
8.
But those out-of-the-blue spit-up sessions? Not so much.
9.
Remember those teeny-tiny toes you always wanted to kiss?
10.
But also those big-ass blowouts you always wanted to run away from?
11.
Spending all your time bonding with your new best friend was pretty freakin' sweet.
12.
But TBH, a bit more adult interaction might've done you some good, too.
13.
Sweet moments with your baby during feedings were pure heaven.
14.
But washing all those bottles and pump parts at the end of the day? Pure torture.
15.
You totally miss the watching in awe every time they do something new.
16.
But not the watching in horror every time they do something new.
17.
And lastly, those precious moments watching your baby sleep were enough to make you want to relive that stage again.
18.
But the memory of those nights wondering if you'll ever sleep again make you totally grateful for the stage you're in.
