[quote=Anonymous]You will find reserved of energy you never knew you had, new mom. 
I don't know how it happens, but it does and when it happens and that instinct kicks in you'll surprise yourself at your ability to do things like:

Hear the baby crying or even stirring from another room...even when others can't. Seriously, this is like some kind of instinctual mom super power. You may even find your let down response is triggered with these faint noises. This power will also come in handy in a few years when you just have a gut instinct that the way too quiet kid is up to something.

Multitask like a champ. Those light night feeding sessions while trying to get other things done are just the start. Girl, soon you'll be changing diapers while negotiating your cell phone bill and keeping an eye out on that pan of casserole you whip up in minutes flat. You can do it!

Develop and amazing sense of confidence. Sure you're nervous now. But those nerves will soon be replaced with confidence with each victory. Birth. Feedings. Late nights. Illnesses. Crying. All part of your confidence boosting marathon.

So relax mom, you're gonna do great!
