Motherhood: Ninja Mom

You are a NINJA!

You are able to move from point A to point B without making any sound. Able to move baby from the couch to his crib, without him knowing. Having the extra sensitive hearing for baby's faintest sound, knowing that it is time to prepare his milk. You have extra three pairs of hands when you need to prepare milk, set the boppy pillow, get the burp cloth, throw dirty clothes into the hamper, etc... all while dancing baby to sleep. A 6-hour sleep seems too silly for you, 2 hours is enough to energize you and start up your 'ninja-ness.'

It is a skill that will be harnessed as your baby progresses. My baby is now 7 weeks old; I am now at the stage where in the middle of the night, feel the need to wake up automatically just because I sense his diaper needs changing, so I take my baby off his swaddle wrap, remove his diaper, put on a new one, feed him, burp him, then put him back in his swaddle wrap... all accomplished without disturbing his peaceful slumber.

Yes, you are a ninja mom, and you should be darn proud of it! :)
