Natalia Sabransky is a freelance illustrator from Argentina who stepped into motherhood two and a half years ago. Since then, she's taken to drawing funny comics based on those everyday problems, funny situations, and adventures that are routine for new moms.

Sabransky's comics are titled "Mamá ilustrada," or "Illustrated mom," and she is the main character, accompanied by her son Santiago and her husband Gaston. "My son and the situations of raising a kid that I live with, are my main inspiration," - Natalia Sabransky told Bored Panda. Sabransky hopes that other minds will see themselves in her parenting comics and realize that they're not alone as hardworking moms with little kids in the world.

Bored Panda translated the cartoon drawings from Spanish to English.

You don't have to, but some people choose too. Some people get married because they have kids, some people choose to wait. It's their choice

    This is a conception that I cannot understand why any man or woman would willingly agree to. Why, as a woman, would you live with a man that you do not perceive and/or respect as an adult and why, as a man, would you accept this just to be able to delegate more responsibility to a person you claim to be your life partner? This should not be the way to be someone's "significant other".

    It's b******t like this that perpetuates the "Dads don't know how to parent" myth. This comic is awful.

    Being the youngest of my generation in the family to have a child, I managed to escape this. My older relatives (the ones who usually give the most unsolicited advice) had learned from my older cousins that it's not always welcome - or needed. So by the time I had my son, they would say, "You're the mom, so it's up to you, but I can offer some advice if you want it." Most of the time, being a new mom, I DID want it. However I didn't always agree with it, and they had learned not to be offended if I didn't do exactly as they suggested. ------------ I was a lucky lady!!

    Free? Well, maybe after you clean up all the messes he made, put his toys away, start a load of laundry, mop the floor, and if you're lucky, have time to take a shower before you pass out from exhaustion!

    I never needed to wait that long... I would just look at my son's eyes. If they were just a little bit too pink around the eyelashes, and if the blue iris was so dark it looked more purple, I knew he was tired, and I'd get him down for the nap before they hysterics began. --------------- Best trick for getting my son to stay in the crib/bed until he fell asleep was a tv with a vcr attached (a DVD these days). I'd put on a Disney movie for him, and within 15 minutes he'd be out cold!!
