By Jocelyn Vena

Sure, we're just days away from changing the diaper on Baby New Year, what with 2019 being just around the bend, but let's not forget that 2018 was chock full of births. From Real Housewives to Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles agents to a Top Chef judge, no one was immune to baby fever. Sure, a few of these parents were old pros by the time they expanded their families, but there are also a number of first-time mamas and papas who we're sure got an eye-opening look at what life as a parent feels like in 2018.

How to Watch
