Motherhood Isn’t for the Weak

 Motherhood Isn’t for the Weak:

 Hilarious Truths They Never Warned Us About

Anything and Everything Blog


Brace yourself, ladies and the occasional brave dad who stumbled in here—because motherhood isn’t for the faint-hearted. It’s not all lullabies and peaceful baby giggles. Nope. It’s snot on your shoulder at church 😩, cold coffee (every day ☕), and answering 57 questions before you even brush your teeth. And that’s just before 9 a.m.

We love our kids. Truly. But let’s not pretend like this gig is anything short of a hilarious, slightly chaotic rollercoaster with no seatbelt.


1. Sleep is a Myth They Sell to Non-Parents

Before motherhood: “I can’t function without 8 hours of sleep.”
After motherhood: “Three hours and a lukewarm coffee? I’m basically a superhero.” 🦸‍♀️

No one warns you that newborns don’t sleep through the night. They sleep throughout the night—in 23-minute intervals. And don’t get me started on sleep regression. Just when you think you're winning? BAM! Your toddler decides 2 a.m. is party time. 🎉


2. You Will Say Things You Never Thought a Human Would Say

“Stop licking the dog.”
“Please don’t wear your underwear on your head to school.”
“No, we don’t put spaghetti in our ears.”

Motherhood unlocks a strange new language filled with sentences that would shock your past self. You say them seriously, then pause and wonder who you’ve become. 🤯


3. You’ll Forget What Silence Sounds Like

Silence? Either someone is asleep… or plotting something. 😬

Once they learn how to talk, they never stop. “Why is the sky blue?” “Why do worms exist?” “Why don’t you have eyebrows like Elsa?” My nephew once asked me why grownups don’t eat Play-Doh if it smells so good. I had no answer. Honestly, fair question.


4. Your Body Will Change (and So Will Your Toilet Habits)


Going to the toilet alone? A fantasy. If you're lucky, you might get a quiet 30 seconds while a tiny hand pokes under the door. 🚪🖐️

And your body? Let’s just say things stretch and shift in ways science can’t explain. You sneeze wrong and pull a muscle you didn’t know existed. You’ll laugh and accidentally pee. You are now a glorious warrior—slightly leaky, but undefeated. 😂💪


5. You’ll Laugh Until You Cry… Then Cry Until You Laugh

Motherhood has a wild sense of humor. Your child will draw a “portrait” of you that looks like a melted potato and proudly display it on the fridge. 🥔 You’ll cry in the pantry because they called you the "worst mom ever"—then cry again when they sneak in a note that says, “You’re my heart.”

It’s chaos. It's beautiful. It’s exhausting. And it’s funny—if you let it be. 😅


Tips to Survive (and Even Enjoy) This Madness

✅ Lower your standards. Clean is now "not sticky."
✅ Laugh at the mess—you’ll miss these stories someday.
✅ Make parenting fun: Dance in the kitchen. Tell fart jokes. Have breakfast for dinner.
✅ Get a “mom friend” who also cries in the laundry room. You need someone to text memes to at 3 a.m.
✅ Don’t forget YOU—bubble baths, wine, hiding snacks in your sock drawer. Self-care, queen! 👑


Final Thoughts (and a Plea for Solidarity)

So no, motherhood isn’t for the weak. It’s for women made of grit, glitter, and unwashed hair buns. If you're in the thick of it—crying, laughing, hiding in the bathroom with your chocolate stash—you're doing amazing.

Drop a comment below and share the funniest or weirdest thing your kid ever said or did. Let’s laugh together because we are not alone in this wild, hilarious jungle called motherhood. 🌴👶💕

How to Take Off from Grass to Grace There’s a special kind of magic in a “grass to grace” story. It’s the kind of tale that makes your heart swell with hope, your sides ache from laughter, and your mind race with the possibility of your own success. We all love a good underdog story—whether it’s the billionaire who once lived in a shack, the footballer who sold sachet water as a kid, or the local celebrity who once worked as a mascot at a fast-food joint. But what really makes a “grass to grace” journey? Is it luck? Hard work? A fairy godmother? Or just a series of unfortunate events that miraculously turn fortunate? Let’s find out. Understanding the Grass Stage Every great success story has a beginning, and, let’s be honest, it’s usually a tough one.

This stage can manifest as financial struggles, c...

What Is the Sirius Star and Why You Shouldn’t Miss It

What Is the Sirius Star and Why You Shouldn’t Miss It On a clear night, when the world quiets down and the stars begin to appear one by one, a sparkling gem lights up the sky brighter than all the others — Sirius, the "Dog Star." But blink (or stay glued to your phone) and you might just miss one of the most spectacular sights heaven has to offer. A Star Worth Watching Sirius isn’t just another twinkle overhead. It’s the brightest star in our night sky, shining with an intensity that has captured the awe of stargazers for thousands of years. Located in the constellation Canis Major — which charmingly translates to "Greater Dog" — Sirius lives up to its reputation as the alpha dog of the night. This brilliant star is about 8.6 light-years away from Earth, making it one of our closest stellar neighbors. In astronomical terms, that’s practically next door (if you consider "next door" being about 50 trillion miles away). How to...
