    Your baby probably won’t be able to tell the difference 😂
    You can use an image flipper/mirror tool for photos. Cute cake btw!

    That’s funny! For sure he wont notice and it was your first so many more to come. 👏🏻

    Stick it in front of a mirror 😆 Looks amazing though, I’m sure it’ll taste great!

    Cut off the edge and move it to the correct side then re-frosting it.

  6. dooinit00

    Tell me your baby isn’t sleeping through the night yet without telling me your baby isn’t sleeping through the night yet 😂 looks delicious though! Happy first to your little one, and congratulations to you to keeping another human alive for a whole year!

    Hey, I have the same orange pot! Mine’s from the 70’s yours looks the same.

  9. Ok_North_7224

    This is awesome! You created a cute memory! Happy birthday to your baby!

    My dyslexic self seeing this and thinking it was right at first. LOL it looks good though!

    The theme can be “backwards-topsy-turvy” party
    🙂

  12. PezGirl-5

    It’s beautiful. They won’t know! It will be a good story to tell in years to come

  13. Wide_Tomorrow4743

    Leave it and flip the photos so they are mirrored!

  14. nonchalansaur

    It will be great for selfie photos 😂

  15. Love_And_Butter

    Hahaha well the baby will never know and you have a funny 1st bday story!

  16. ZangiefThunderThighs

    Just flip the photos after you take them…..be mindful not to have any other text in the photo though.

  17. stuckhere-throwaway

    Honestly I think it’s even cuter that way. And I love the naked sides!

  18. auntiepink007

    I would totally leave it. What a sweet memory of all the chaos that goes into raising an infant. It’s much more real and precious than perfection.

  19. OAKandTerlinden

    The 1 is simply looking forward towards the future 🙂

  20. Safe_Potato_Pie

    This is amazing, thanks for giving us all a good chuckle!

  21. Hopeful_Pizza_2762

    It’s okay. Your baby won’t remember.

  22. KittenCartoonist

    It took me a few minutes to figure out what was wrong hahahaahaha. I have baby brain. 🤣 it’s still perfect!!

  23. Outside_Raspberry512

    If it where me I would make it just a line for the 1 rather than the version with the bottom piece and the top diagonal edge. You could cut off the extra and frost the sides to make it look less backwards

  24. WerewolvesAreReal

    Present it to people proudly and without elaboration. Watch their faces and see if anyone points it out 😂

  25. Rayochii

    I didn’t even notice ! I would just leave it as is–its okay if it’s backwards. I think it can be a silly mistake to have in memorym also it’s very very cute 🩷🩷

  26. thesuaz12

    Still love it! We don’t make mistakes, just happy little accidents

  27. 7inchesofsatan

    it would be an easy fix, but frankly i think it’s a cute mistake. he’s 1, anyway, so thankfully he will not care and i think it will make a cute, funny memory.

  28. eatmygerms

    It’s alright, it’s just one mistake

  29. Mandsee

    you now have a hilarious story to tell their whoe life! it’s adorable and will be a great memory 🙂

  30. typicalgiddy

    Honestly, that’s how the first year can feel 😂

  31. FoodLionMVP

    I would leave it alone and flip any photos I took of it lol

  32. bunny_bard

    Just tell everyone you’re “reflecting” on your baby’s first year of life. Totally intentional.

  33. DunderMifflin2005

    Omg so funny. 🤣

    Congrats on surviving the first year of parenthood. It is a crazy ride!!!!

  34. pocketlily

    Lean into it and plan to make the 2 backwards next year. That just how it has to be now.
