When you become a new parent, it's only natural for priorities to change and for your little one to become the center of your universe. But when every single aspect of your entire life continues to revolve around your child, there's a good chance that you've become majorly obsessed with your kiddo. Whether you're losing non-parent friends in person due to the inability to hold a conversation that doesn't immediately circle back to your kids or are also losing followers on social media because you're constantly blowing up everyone's feeds with endless versions of the same snapshot of your tot, you might be overdoing it with the mom cheerleading. Here's how to tell if your proud mama status has been replaced with the title of completely obsessed parent who needs to reel it in.
