Don't try to do everything on your own! It's important to work as a team with your partner / the rest of the family, because at 2 months postpartum, your baby still needs a lot of care. It helps if you have reliable childcare arrangement in place, and understanding colleagues/bosses who will not react negatively when you need to take urgent leave when baby falls sick. Other than these external support, you need to be kind to yourself and lower your expectations on how much/ how well you can do because this is a whole new phase you need time to adjust to.
