Berpantang sendiri

Pantang sorang-sorang memang challenging, tapi doable lah depending on your support system, if you have family nearby or can afford help even part-time, it makes a huge difference versus doing everything yourself postpartum. The trade-off is either you rest properly tapi maybe kena relax sikit on strict pantang rules, or you try to follow everything perfectly but end up exhausted which defeats the purpose kan. Most of us try to find a middle ground, focus on the essentials like confinement diet and avoiding heavy lifting, but be realistic about what you can actually manage alone with a newborn. Interested to hear from other mums here who've done it solo, how did you manage the daily routine and cooking?
