Even if you don't plan on becoming a mom for years, you probably have at least a vague vision of what parenthood will look like. You might think you'll spend your precious free time soaking in the bath but in reality, you'll probably end up cleaning the bathroom floor. Here, moms admit how they thought things would go down — and oh, how very wrong they were.

The Reality: Zzzzzzz...
4. Call Your Best Friend to Catch Up
