Raising children is far from a simple task—it might as well be the hardest job in the world. It has its challenges, but lots of love and laughter along the way. An architect and artist from Moldova, Inna Sacali, puts both sides of motherhood into comics in a brutally honest and entertaining way. She illustrates her everyday life with her husband and their little son and it's never boring—from pregnancy and relationship struggles, exhaustion, a kid's cute and sometimes frustrating shenanigans, and mental health battles to precious family moments, a toddler's first words, and hilarious situations that make it all worth it.

If you have experienced the gift of being a parent, you will definitely relate to these quirky illustrations, and if not—here's a glimpse of what it's really like to be a mom. No sugar-coating. Are these comics hitting too close to home? Tell us in the comments and don't forget to upvote your favorites! Sacali also took a moment out of her busy mom routine to share her own experiences in the interview below, so don't miss it!

I had this conversation with my husband a few weeks ago! I was looking through old photos of our girls and I found some of our youngest when she and I were still in the hospital. She legit looks like a squished old man, in every photo. She was not a cute baby her first week, but of course I was a mother in love, and she was the most beautiful thing in the entire world.

So true! My four siblings and I all came along back in the days when fathers spent their time in the waiting rooms of the hospital while the mothers were in labor. So our Dad's first glimpse of us was in Mom's hospital room, after whichever one of us had been cleaned up and made reasonably presentable. I know he was always thrilled that we had arrived, he just didn't see the "cuteness" of his infant children right away. He was always struck by how red and wrinkly we were. Mom, who loved babies, would just gush about how beautiful this new arrival was, and being a good husband/Daddy, of course he agreed. But Dad told me once he always walked out of the hospital room thinking, "Well, we just had another lizard!" LOL.

Sacali told Bored Panda that she has loved to draw since she can remember. She put her job as an architect on hold and started drawing comics about what it means to be a parent on her maternity leave.

"My baby inspires me every day for new comics. All the ideas I take from real life. They’re honest because they actually reflect my emotions and feelings, or describe some funny situations that happened to me," said the artist.

    So many judgmental people. I nannied a 3 mo old and was told of the frazy old lady neighbor. Well, neighbor saw me and said "Glad I know you're nannying because I almost thought you were murdering him. Gotta admit-I judge my brother and SIL because they're very hoidy toidy-must get the expensive version of toys, must be pink, latest model. Nothing is good enough for them-they requested to stop gift giving and my guess is that our gifts were never good enough

    So, I did childcare and a 4 year old wanted attention and he licked the side of the garbage can. I told him once to stop, then ignored him so it wouldn't be a power struggle. He then ate a bite of cupcake out of the trash. After like 3 licks he stopped. Not sure if my staff sanitized the trash daily as licensing required-I had bigger fish to fry than to ensure that- but he didn't get sick. and yes, kid was not easy and had a difficult home life.

    With my second, it is currently "Mommy got up to pee" causing hysterical crying

    Sacali's comics are colorful and vivid, yet simplistic. Because she is short of time to put more details into illustrations, she chose a style that takes up less time but conveys the ideas perfectly. As you can see in the comics, raising a child can get very busy. Even this interview was interrupted by a crying child who called his mother to play, which the artist called a "mom's reality."

    ADVERTISEMENT

    "‌I hope my art will make you smile and show maternity from a different angle," said Sacali before returning to her main job at the moment, which is being a mom. And you can see what it looks like from up close and unfiltered in this post and on the artist's social media!

    In order to pass muster I need to: shower (need clean towels, used them all for a pee, poo, barf combo- need clean clothes - see previous, do I even own panties anymore or do I just have granny bloomers and a mattress pad) wash hair (all I have is oatmeal hypoallergenic baby body wash) wash body (see previous), See towels... Style hair... How do I do this again, Wait, What is this stuck in my hair? Make up- sweats it off from postpartum hot flashes, jewelry - baby rips earring out of the hole and you now have a sliced ear lobe. Necklace lasts 0.000002 seconds before it's ripped off. Rings cut and scratch the baby and or your fingers are still so swollen. Shoes- heels lolololololololololol Feet went up one full size. give me Crocs. Tight jeans....uh, no, just no! swanky cashmere sweater... Baby projectile vomits from the thirty yard line as soon as he knows the sweater cost 2,000$ The vomit is green, the sweater is now green and smells like malted milk balls.

But my daughter, who was maybe 2 months then, peed all over the bed in the time it took me to reach for her diaper-which was on the bed like a foot. I blinked, too. It was all over the bed. And I had a towel under her but it went past it. No more bed changes after that!

    Most of the time I sympathize with the parent and try not to let my annoyance show because yes, I'm quite sensitive to noise but then again, the little kreacher's got to live too. Sometimes when I think the parents might hear then I'll say something like "oh no, somebody's having a bad day" in a gentle tone so the parents don't think everyone is mad at them. :D

    Both of my boys did this, but only when Daddy was watching them. Hubby still teases the boys that he knew real quick that they loved me best LOL

    I'm 11 years old than my only brother. I remember when he was learning to stand every night he would smear poop on the walls. Like every night for a week. Then my parents moved his crib to the middle of the room. I remember being absolutely horrified over it.

    Are the blackout bars in the comics or did BP find them necessary? Inquiring minds want to know.

    i checked Instagram, and they're not in the comics on there. BP seems to think that's not appropriate.

    I was the opposite. After my 2nd kid I felt decent about myself and my mom told me how fat I was and I looked at pics and she was right. I did gain 67 lbs and baby was only 7 of those, and I have since gained 27 lbs and still look pregnant most 4 years later. TBF I had some childbirth injuries that contribute to my lack of weight loss. And I am lazy.

    Also, as a mom, you've got to eat fast. If you take too long, you won't be able to finish eating before you are needed again. Hard to enjoy a meal when you have to change a poopy diaper in between bites!

    First meal after 5 MONTHS of 24/7 "morning" sickness. 5 heaping plates of spaghetti and meatballs, 3 huge bowls of salad with every topping at the salad bar... It may or may not have been 5 loaves of Italian bread, and entire cheesecake. God but food tasted soooooooooooo gooooooooood!!!!!! I'd existed on plain white rice (no butter or salt) and iceberg lettuce for 5 months! Lost 75 pounds...had hydramnios, gained all 75 pounds back. Had a 9 pound 12 oz kid,

    Yes! When my boys were around 6 and 7 (they are 18 months and 1 day apart) they could do some serious wearing out of the pants and shoes. Thrift stores are great for that age!

    Had a thought last night...pillow cases would make for great dresses like they did way back when for kids! Cut three holes in da* thing and use removable arm thingies Velcro at bottom depending on time of year,season, u could ev3n reuse as a pillow case after the little 💩s grow up! He**, they could have a diff dress every day while they’re that small! Well, guess it’d depend on baby too...might need potato sac for some babies. Mine was only 5 and 1/2 so she would’ve.been swimming in a pillow case. Food for thought

    I'll never forget, it was something like 1 in the morning and I was in the living room watching TV. Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I spy a gremlin walking down the hall and into the living room. I felt my adrenaline shoot up and the hair on the back of the neck stood up. Then I realized it was my toddler daughter. She'd never gotten up and come out by herself before. I nearly crapped myself.

    My first memory, I was probably 2. My brother previously taught me to take the crib rail off (80s crib) and I did. Walked myself down the hall to my parents, so proud of myself.

    That's just for the first kid. 2nd kid-nothing. Our diaper bag was so filled for our first, contemplated a bigger bag for the next time, but 2nd we barely brought spare clothes. Stopped bringing anything except just wipes and diapers in the car. If we were out long I put some in my purse. Don't think we ever regretted not.
