New moms take an average of three months and 13 days to feel they have got the hang of motherhood.
According to a new study that examined the confidence levels of 2,000 American mothers in the first few months after having their baby, women said that the first few weeks of parenting passed in a complete blur, because they were so panicked about getting things right.
