This Mom Made Drawings to Describe Her Husband's "Useless Nipples," and We're So On Board

Mattea Goff, a mom of two, is known for creating a doodle every now and again. But recently, Mattea brought the hellish clusterf*ck tiring reality of nighttime feeding [1] to life on paper, and boy is the concept of "useless nipples" genius. The sleepy momma shared her work on Facebook [2], and apparently other women quite literally got the picture.

"I have a tendency to doodle my emotions, so at the end of a long weekend, this is literally how my night and morning went," Mattea told POPSUGAR. "I sat down and started drawing and when I was done I presented it to my husband who laughed, got the point, and that was that. It was only later when some friends saw it that they insisted I post it, and the rest is history."

"The majority of this stuff falls to moms. That's not good or bad it just is what it is! Babies need their mothers."

Although Mattea's doodles were clearly meant to give parents a laugh, she hopes that her work brings women together.

"I think most get it, whether you're exclusively breastfeeding or bottle feeding and everything in between," she said. "The majority of this stuff falls to moms. That's not good or bad it just is what it is! Babies need their mothers."

As for all the new dads out there? Mattea simply urges them to help out whenever they can.

"I think most good dads would give up their nipples if they weren't so useless," she joked. "Support is really important. Dads can and do help out in so many other ways — raising a family is a team sport. And hang in there! Because believe it or not, these hard days and even harder nights will be a pleasant distant memory, and you will never look back and regret the time you put in to your little ones."
