Me again with another question! When your partner goes back to work or for single parents - any top tips? How do you eat and get stuff done?
Thank you

When you find out can you let me know 🤣 x

Meal prep food you can just microwave while you’re partner is out and learn how to eat one handed while holding baby🤣
Also, snacks. All the snacks.
Make the most of your babies best nap time- for me it’s the first one of the day so I shower, clean up etc then
Walks and/or drives really help to settle both of us when everything gets to be a bit too much
Know that you can leave baby in a safe place when you need to - I leave mine in his crib with the monitor on whenever I need 5mins (mainly to use the toilet haha)

Baby sling hun!

Thank you everyone ! Some great tips and hope we can get a little routine going!

The things I found that work for us are: baby sling (eg. hanging the washing out), bouncer (when showering, on the toilet, or getting ready), making food/eating, when she is sleeping. You'll probably find you'll potter around with lo in your arms and do the odd bits and just make it work 😊.
If you are BF make sure you have your set up ready, the amount of times I've sat down and not had a drink to hand and being super thirsty 🙃😅, can't just say to my partner can you get me my water bottle/drink please 😆
