Mothering is not miserable for all of us. Some of us enjoyed it.

Please don't tell moms they have to pump and dump after drinking wine, because they don't.

Pacifiers aren't a necessity.

I wanted to leave the hospital asap. Left a few hours after my vaginal birth. Stayed a day and a half after the cesarean.

Not every single moment of motherhood is awesome. But many of us found it pretty nice. If you want to have kids, don't think it will be miserable.
