As soon as you become a mum, your privacy goes straight out the window. Literally.
There is no such thing as even going to the toilet in peace.
In fact, as soon as you do close the bathroom door, that tends to be the EXACT moment something happens and your kids need you. Right. Now.
However, one mum has thought of a pretty genius way to be able to go to the toilet or have a shower in peace, and we're raging we didn't think about it ourselves!
Posted on the Mommas Helping Mommas Facebook page, the picture shows a sign taped to the bathroom door listing four things the kids are NOT allowed do when Mum is in there.
From only knocking if the house is on fire, to putting an end to notes under the door, this mum has pretty much covered every angle!
Here's what it says:
"If mom is in the bathroom you are NOT allowed to…
"1. Knock, unless the house is on fire or someone is bleeding and/or dead.
"2. Scream questions at me if the shower is running! Hot Tip! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!
"3. Wait for me within inches of the door and then yell at me when you get slammed in the face like it's my fault.
"4. Slip me notes of any kind, especially the ones with those check boxes. Ask yourself this question before knocking…Can I survive the next two minutes without mom? Yes, No."
The only downside...? Your kids have to be able to read.
So, unless you're pretty good at drawing, you'll have to hold out until they are at least in school.
