After becoming a mother, was there something about you that changed completely, that you wouldn't have believed it 5 or 10 years ago?

I used to love to go out and eat, and HATED cooking. Cooking and cleaning up afterwards was a waste of time and I just didn't see the point. I did it out of necessity and I would eat out on weekends for sure. We always cook ahead of time and just reheat the food on weekdays. The things we cook are mostly pasta and not much veggie or protein.

Now with DS, and we needed to be more mindful about budgets. For some reason, I really really love cooking and eating at home 7 days a week. I didn't even mind that I have to pick DS up early, and go home and cook from scratch every night! We also eat so healthy with a ton of vegetables and protein. I thought I was eating the healthiest foods when I was pregnant, but no, we are the healthiest now. This is something I wouldn't have believed it (and still couldn't believe) 5 years ago.

You? Any natural changes after motherhood?
