When my second child was born, I started to turn snippets of our family life into short comics. They were very simple, but I liked them and my friends seemed to like them too, so they encouraged me to start posting my comics on social media. That's when I realized most parents could relate to those situations. It was a lot of fun to connect with other parents in this way. In fact, it was so much fun that I posted more and more comics and today, it has become my job! It's been years since my first post, and I have had four more children since.

With a big family at home, inspiration never fails!

    Get two children and you will never get "I don't want to get into the baaaath" again. Instead you get two of them screaming "I go fiiiiiiiiirst!"

    To be fair, the people around you don't show their vulnerable side around every single person. They're not flawless, you're just not seeing their private life.

    Dont do that, your kid will think they're weird. It's just a phase and they will learn to have natural smile. Maybe tell them to practise faces in front of a mirror as in a fun way, don't make them think it's something wrong with them!

    Frankly, it are just a few months, but you will remember them for a lifetime. It is hard, and it can be incredibly hard, but the love given to the small ones during these few months will be a tailwind blowing for their lifetimes. (Being told this while being oveslept and awaiting another night of a baby with belly problems is not the most productive thing, though.)

    I had insomnia for years. What helped me was a combination of building very strong bedtime routine, turning off all monitors after 9pm, turning on a red light in the evening and some months with magic pills prescribed by a shrink. The shrink was kinda like a genie from a lamp I guess. 🤷‍♀️

    "So you have depression? Just decide to be happy! You are poor? Work harder and spend less! You are too ugly to be loved and you feel lonely? Just fake confidence!" Seriously, those people are despicable.

    For those of you out there struggling with insomnia: I feel you. Try Melatonin pills or if you don't want to take actual medicine I am told that natural melatonin sources like cherries are good too. Some other things that might help are: darken/lighten the room so that it is comfortable, not too bright or you wont sleep. A damp cool cloth over your eyes. Read a book for a bit to relax. And above all, try to realize that it is okay not to be sleeping, because if you worry about not sleeping you are NEVER going to sleep! I hope this helps!

    Not really, more like person-who's-never-experienced-insomnia-suggesting since he isn't trying to explain anything & as an insomniac I've gotten this response from an equal number of women.

    I think every parent really caring for the children feels this way, at least occasionally. Still the persisting feeling is that it is rewarding, isn't it?

    This is just a comic, fortunately. In reality, they would not give you so much space.

    I thought kids take maybe as a "no"? My siblings do half the time and have a go at me for it.
