LIFE IS LOVELY: The newborn stage is definitely easier than the toddler stage
If anyone has told you the newborn stage is hard, wait until you hit the toddler stage – it's a whole different ball game.
As a parent of a two-year-old you can only imagine the ups and down faced by a toddler who doesn’t fully understand boundaries or why he can’t drink the bath water.
I feel like the newborn stage went over so quick and it’s true what people say “they don’t stay little for long.”
Fast forward just over two years later and I have a crazy toddler running around, talking, playing and exploring the world around him.
As we prepare to welcome another baby later in the year I’m looking forward to the newborn stage spending hours holding them and watching them sleep.
For any parents yet to hit the toddler stage in comparison the newborn stage is an absolute breeze and I didn’t realise it at the time.
You are constantly kept on your toes with a toddler and you really can’t leave them alone for five minutes without fear of what they’re getting up to. The latest escapades of toddler life happened just a few days ago when I went in the kitchen to empty the bin.
