Any first time mummy here that have looked after baby alone by yourself?
Can you share your experiences please ? I am feeling so overwhelmed 😔#advicepls #firstbaby #firsttimemom
Me! The hard part is overcoming the lack of sleep due to pumping. You’ll get frustrated and annoyed (a crying baby) easily when you don’t have enough sleep. Once your body got used to the frequent waking and sleeping lesser, it will get better. My baby is generally quite easy to manage (thank god). She just sleeps, drinks, pee poop. Occasionally needs someone to entertain her. (NB days - 4mo) The routine is pretty much the same daily, just add age related activities as they grow. It gets way easier for me when I started to stretch my pump sessions (5-6hrly, 12hrly) because I can finally rest well. LO is currently 20mo and I stop pumping at 18mo and have been able to sleep for 12 hours daily ☺️. LO haven’t attend school yet so for now, the hard part is finding stuffs to keep her entertained. The rest are generally quite easy to handle.
