Seven moments to die of love when you live with babies or young children

The early years of parenting are exhausting and a real challenge, but there are small moments that make up for everything (in fact, it is what we always answer to those who ask us if having children is worth it, right?).

All parents know them, but you have to be attentive because they last just a moment: THOSE moments when you feel an infinite love and would like to record them in memory forever because they are pure happiness. These seven situations with your baby that make you die of love.

The smell of your newly raised baby

The first thing I do when I take my little daughter from her crib is to sink her nose in the back of her neck and breathe in the smell of her neck and her curls. It is still warm and no longer smells just out of the bathtub; It's something even better. If that aroma could be bottled, the mothers would be millionaires.

In addition, it seems that the fact that we like to smell our babies is a biological imperative in the first few weeks and then something similar to a drug because of the pleasant sensation that our puppies sniff.

A simple doodle in your agenda

It is not necessary for your children to be present to melt you with their pranks. Impossible not to smile when you open your work agenda and find yourself the doodle your son painted the afternoon before In a mistake. Or when you find a toy that you have put in your bag to make the morning more bearable. What detail! The intention is also appreciated when what you find is a bit of a bitten cookie.

When they fall asleep anywhere

I've spent hours and hours watching my children sleep. Neither yoga nor anything. The most relaxing thing in the world is to watch carefully as the baby's belly rises and falls to the rhythm of his breathing. And the cutest thing is when they fall asleep anywhere and in any case: with the little pieces sticking out of the cradle, on the carpet, on the high chair ... it makes them sleepy and it's like they closed their eyes in slow motion.

And if you fall asleep on top, as companion Lola Rovati likes, better than better. So you can take the opportunity to eat them with kisses and you have the excuse to do nothing at all and enjoy the moment.

When they caress you by breastfeeding

It is a favorite moment of the companion Silvia Díaz: “what I have always melted with is when they caress your face, cleavage or put their little fat hand on your lips so that you kiss her while they suck”.

For babies, their mother's milk is like a good ham dish. Some start clapping when they see the tit popping out and I have even seen someone with blank eyes enjoying that moment as only babies know how to do it. A very special moment that both they and we enjoy, since breastfeeding produces oxytocin which, as is known, is the hormone of happiness.

Feel that warm hand when you're sleeping

There are defenders and detractors of the colecho. It depends on each family and each child, but parents who have never slept with their baby miss the sensation of noticing a warm hand on the face in the middle of the night. If in one of his turns you serve as a stop and he decides to curl up against you, the sensation of waking up with his little body attached to yours is a wonder.

Of course, it may not be a caress that wakes you, but a kick or a smack and that does not have much charm ...

When you have more than one: watch them play

My children's favorite sport is sticking, screaming and throwing things at all times (and in the case of the older, three-year-old, scolding the little girl with her rag tongue), but I have realized that they only do it when I am in front. Hidden so they won't see me, I've seen my son tell stories to his sister, explain how a skateboard works and one day he even kissed him! Maximum tenderness

Look at that clothesline full of mini things

Those beautiful bodys, those tiny socks, tiny caps ... When you buy clothes for your newborn, you wash it and you tend each press with delicacy, imagining how it will be with each of those preciousnesses, it is impossible not to throw a tear of emotion.

Then, when they are older and you no longer do exclusive laundry for them, the clothesline is filled with colors, superheroes and strasses and continues to awaken the same tenderness to see those beautiful mini garments among the “older” clothes.
