Mum’s hilarious photos of life with kids are so relatable

There are very few things that will change your life as much as starting a family.

So many new challenges, trials and joys come with becoming a mum or dad, and as any parent knows, there are no shortage of sacrifices that need to be made.

Mum of triplets Desiree Fortin, sums it up perfectly in a hilarious photo series that shows the humorous side of all the things she’s had to give up since having kids.

Shared to her 30K Instagram followers, the series is titled ‘RIP mum truths’ and aims to reassure mums that they’re not alone in missing the way things were before children.

“I decided to do this series because I wanted to bring something honest yet funny to motherhood,” Desiree tells Be.

“I wanted mums to know that while we wouldn’t trade this mum life for the world, it’s okay to miss our pre-mum life, pre-mum bodies, and everything in between.

With three bubs running around, Desiree certainly has her hands full, and her images show her missing everything from sleep, to shaved legs, and even sexy undies.

It's the most relatable thing you'll see today.
