Taking care of LO alone

Any mummies here taking care of LO alone with no help from family? My husband is in oversea and my confinement nanny is going back soon. My biggest concern is that my LO was bottlefeed since birth. Although I had tried latching him but was not successful hence I had been exclusively pumping. I do not know how I can manage the time when I had to feed the baby + pump + do all the housework without skipping on my rest time. Please advise ?

Yes i was taking care of LO alone up till 10mo. After that he went to ifc. Pump when he's sleeping and quickly get some rest. Housework no need to prioritise. If need to cook for yourself, do so early morning before baby wakes up. Some cleaning can do at night after baby slp and quickly go to bed after that. Ppl usually say do work when baby sleeping but i say not in the day cos will feel sian if just finish work and baby wake up. And yes, my lo was bottle fed too
