When do you get to relax? I’m seriously struggling to keep awake. I need to sleep but there’s no time???
Got my 2 week old to sleep at 5:30 am this morning
Toddler woke up at 6am
It’s been like that all day
I managed an hour sleep at 9pm, but then my partner woke me up at 10pm because baby woke up 🙃🙃🙃
Got her down to sleep and she’s now awake again, so I’m dealing with baby again
My partner is also exhausted but doesn’t seem to deal with baby, and I have spoken to him it’s just not happening
At what point can I relax?
Just hoping it gets better…. And easier? 💀

Your partner has to help you. Working or not. It's important if you are at home with the children all day. You need some rest. So you can look after your children safely! I had an accident with my child when she was 6 days old because I was so exhausted! 😔
Get support from some family members! Could someone have your toddler in the day or for a few hours from time to time, so you can sleep when baby sleeps?
my partners not back to work for a couple more weeks, he’s just here not really doing anything 😫
I have plans for toddler to go to family members during the days in October but no one is free to help in September as they’re all off on their holidays
I think I’ll have another chat with my partner, I am so exhausted …. I think I had 2.5 hours sleep last night which is the most I’ve had since she was born 31st august 😴😴😴
