First time mum

My baby is currently 10 weeks old. Things has been really challenging since my husband has a very demanding job and I do not have any additional support of either side of family member. Each time my baby fuss and refused to settle (especially when he cannot sleep) I find myself crying more and more often. With the recent covid situation, I dare not step out of the house which causes my mood to get worse. I guess my question is, when will things gets better or easier? 😪

Hi dear. It's rare isn't it, but I'm like you, do not have support from both sides of the family (I mean, they were elated when we shared the pregnancy news but completely did not show concern after that, so I'm not expecting their support after baby is born haha). I'm a paranoid first time mom so I'm only going out once a week, for a really short time. I'll deliver in 2 weeks, not sure if it'll get easier and better, and deep down I'm scared too. I think I'm gonna write myself a reminder letter, to remind myself to pick myself up when I am down. Baby is gonna be all reliable on her daddy and I, so I mustn't fall. And I've prepared a folder of funny memes and photos for myself to look at when I need a laugh. I hope I'll be okay! And may you be okay too! ♡
