You know you're a mum when........

.......your friend tells you you have some drool on your shoulder and you don't even think about rushing to change!

........you feel pride in another human for doing a poo.

........you can't remember the last time you had a lie in, or went to sleep knowing you wouldn't wake up til the morning.

........your baby has clothing for every single weather eventuality, but you forgot your coat. And it's cold out!
