So I had been thinking how life changes after having a baby. Here are some hilarious scenes of any mother with babies.

Scene 1

Before the baby

You love eating hot food right after it is cooked. And oh yes, don't forget the side dishes and the sauces and your cold drink. During the meal, you want peace and quiet and just enjoy the meal or you want to have a family dinner with your loved ones near you.

After the baby

You sit down to start your meal, fork and spoon in your hand. You curl the spaghetti on the fork as you take it to your mouth, there is a loud wail. Your shoulders droop. Hmph! Again the baby woke up at the wrong time. You are eating your cold or microwave heated food half an hour later once the baby is pacified. Eating all alone while everyone is done with the dinner.

Or

You are holding a crying baby in one arm and eating with the other hand. You are gobbling up the food not tasting any food at all. The agitated baby wants attention but you are hungry too.

Or

You are in the middle of a scrumptious meal and all of sudden there is a horrible stink in the room. You know that smell very well. The baby has done poop and needs a nappy change. You look at your food sadly. There goes another meal.

Scene 2

Before the baby

Looking at your reflection in the mirror for hours, you whisper to yourself, "Mirror, mirror on the wall. Who is the most gorgeous of all?"

You grin and reply, "Why it's you of course."

You spend hours applying make up, wearing jewellery and setting your hijab a hundred times.

After the baby

You take the bath when the baby is asleep. Or even worse you take the baby's bouncer / seat and put her on bathroom floor while you hurriedly take a quick shower, keeping one eye on her and at times you are singing are lullaby as you shower.

You have time only for basic make up – lip gloss and eyeliner will do.

You hardly have time to look at yourself in the mirror. Mirror mirror, what the heck is that?

Your baby pulls your chain or bracelets and it is in two pieces. So much for jewellery.

You hurriedly wrap the hijab over your head, least bothered how it looks on you.

Scene 3

Before the baby

You are immaculately dressed in perfectly ironed clothes, the exact matching of your hijabs. Everything is in place.

After the baby

There is baby drool all over your dress. Oh well, that was an old dress anyways.

It's a miracle to even fit back into your pre-pregnancy clothes.

Scene 4

Before the baby

Your boobs are yours only.

After baby

What boobs? You have become a milk factory.

Forget the push-up bra or padded bra or the sexy lace bra, instead you are in the handy plain nursing bra.

Scene 5

Before the baby

You can't stand any kind of bad odour.

After the baby

You have become immune to all kinds of baby poop stink. Not to forget sometimes you are observing the poop to make sure it's all alright.

Scene 6

Before the baby

Your husband tries to wake you up. You tell him give me five minutes and you sleep well late into the afternoon.

After the baby

Sleep? What is that?

You are awake most of the night and a walking zombie most of the day.

And in one of those lucky nights when you do get sleep, the baby is awake early. There goes your beauty sleep.

You just finished breastfeeding the baby. She is in deep sleep as you slowly put her in her crib, she opens her eyes and smiles. There goes your nap plans.
