You learn from your mistakes. That's how life works. But you're going to have a kid soon, or already have one. Don't make the same rookie mistakes that other parents have made before you. Learn from them, right now, this instant! Check out some of the rookie mistakes by parents:

1. Letting your toddler push the shopping cart.

Don't do this!

2. Poking your sleeping baby to make sure they’re breathing.

And then the cries...they never stopped.

3. Laying your baby down on the bed for just a minute.

Don't do this unless you're ready for a surprise. Plus it's dangerous!

4. Buying too many newborn diapers.

They grow too fast. Don't stock up!

5. Forgetting to pack your baby a change of clothes.

Oh..no...

6. Holding your baby in the air after a feeding.

And suffering the consequences.

7. Clipping the tip of your baby’s finger when trying to cut their nails.

It's definitely not easy.

8. Forgetting to cover your baby’s penis during a diaper change.

This will really happen.

9. Leaving a drink within arm’s reach of your baby.

They can't resist it!

10. Leaving home and then realizing you didn’t bring enough diapers.

Why!!!???

11. Buying too many baby clothes.

It says 6-12 months! Why can't he fit it anymore?

12. Buying a designer diaper bag.

What the? No one cares!

13. Not baby proofing your home.

Not as fun as this, really.

14. Leaving your baby bag because you just forgot it.

Why did you do that!

15. Getting pregnant again because you didn't know breastfeeding wasn't a full proof contraceptive method.

Get ready for baby number 2.

16. Letting your baby play with your phone without putting it on guided access.

Delete everything!

17. Letting your baby touch your face, while leaving an opening for him to gouge your eye out.

It will hurt like an MF.

18. Giving them too much sugar

And she ran and shouted for the rest of the day without getting tired.

19. Leaving them unsupervised in a supermarket

This can't be good.

Have any to add?
