Mom's Cute Selfie With Son Goes Viral For Its Hidden Message About Parenting

Sophie Cachia's got news for you: Having kids isn't all laughter and playing with Legos.

Nope. There's not one Instagram filter that can mask the madness and hell that is raising a tiny human.

That's why Sophie's feed is completely raw. Like photos-of-herself-hugging-her-child-while-having-a-poo raw.

True story. Here's the pic:

Sophie, who's garnered a huge online following for her gritty, in-your-face and honest approach to parenting, wrote,

To the naked eye, this looks like your standard cute photo of Bobby & I. This photo was in fact captured whilst I was taking a poo. Just thought I'd let you all know. Especially for all those planning on having children soon. This. Is. Your. Life. Goodnight.

In short, there is no rest. NONE. Quiet ten minutes to catch up on that book you're reading? Nope. Grocery shopping? You bet your ass you gotta bring the kids along. Sleep? Forget about it.

Sophie shared another video of her trying to go for a wee first thing in the morning, but to no avail.

Instead, her little one draws lipstick all over her. This was on a Monday morning. She makes it looks like heaven, but this is a special kind of hell for me.

Sophie wrote,

Monday's glam squad. Making this tired mumma look fresh as fek whilst sitting naked on the toilet doing my morning wee. I'd be so lost without you babe!

Sophie's Instagram has more than 150,000 followers. This is how she describes her account,

This is ME. Boobs, pubes & all. Mum. Wife. Self proclaimed legend.

Her feed is littered with the highs and highs of having little ones. I'm sure there are some lows, but it genuinely looks like Sophie's loving every second of parenthood, and that scares the living bejesus out of me.

GO MOM. Good luck out there.
