Motherhood: Expectations.

I am always curious to hear from other new mom's about what they expected to be like as a parent versus what actually happened once their little one entered this world. Therefore, I thought it might be fun to write down some of my expectations now so that I can revisit them later to see what stuck and what didn't.

Here goes:

I am not going to have an epidural. 
I'm going to breastfeed versus bottle feed even if I'm not quite comfortable with the idea. 
I want to make my own baby food once she starts solids. 
I'm still going to have a clean house even though I have a kid. 
I'm going to sweep more often so my little girl isn't crawling around in dog hair. 
She will not sleep with us, no matter how much she fights it and how much we want to cuddle her. 
She will have a set bedtime every night.
I will still take care of my personal hygiene in the manner I do now. 
Her clothes will all be washed separately of ours with "Free" detergents.
