BEFORE having children, many of us have expectations on how we will raise them.
But it doesn't always go to plan once you finally have your own – as one mum knows all too well.
Carla Freeman, from the UK, wanted to do everything the right way before becoming a mum.
But she soon realised it was impossible to do that after having them.
Posting on her TikTok account, Carla Freeman Comedy, the hilarious mum explained the list of things she said she would never do.
And how things actually went when she gave birth, which most mums can relate to.

The mum also vowed to never speak badly about her partner while the kids are around – but now she does.
"Daddy's doing bedtime tonight because he's been on the phone for the last two hours," She jokes.
Lastly, the mum promised she would never use her phone around her children, but the reality is a lot different.
She shows herself playing with toys with her kid while on her phone.
