Oh, motherhood! That magical time when sleep is a distant memory, laundry seems to outnumber oxygen molecules, and having a shower alone feels like a holiday in the Bahamas. Congrats, you've made it to the 6-to-12-months post-partum mark. You're basically a superhuman who's birthed a tiny being and kept them alive with sheer willpower and milk (or formula). You're winning! 🏆

Twirl, twist, and twerk that tush until your little one erupts in laughter. Engaging all muscle groups and having your baby believe mom's a rock star? It's a win-win!
