In many ways, moms have their own special language.

When you have children, your life changes forever, and you suddenly find that your conversations are more often about vomit and bodily fluids than current events and world issues. 

Luckily, there are some laughs along the way. So to help all the new moms out there, we’ve got a very special dictionary of words that have special meanings for mothers:

Mom’s Dictionary
