It takes a while for you and your baby to settle into a routine and find a rhythm where you can get little jobs done.
Do not stress, enjoy your baby!!

My baby is almost 6 months and I still haven't adjusted. Because the life we had no longer exists. We need to learn and create a new life and new routines but that takes a lot of time. I mainly focus on spending time with my baby and the rest just happens.

Mine is 2yo and I’m still struggling. I think it’s something that’s gona keep being a reality until they need us less, like teenage years 🤷🏻♀️

Yes, there times I don’t eat. I’m so tired he isn’t sleeping without me with him. So instead of me getting stuff done, I’m sleeping because I end up knocking out trying to put him to sleep and comfort him long enough to get off the bed

I seen something the other day that said stop living in survival mode as a new mom and just enjoy your baby if all you did today was eat and feed your baby you did more than enough also pro tip get a good vibrating bouncer that doesnt need to be plugged in and put baby in it while you do simple tasks around the house also get a sock and a bag of rice and warm it up in the microwave and rub it on the bouncer before you set baby down so they arnt going from warm arms to cold bouncer that was the only way i could do anything with my daughter when no one else was around hope this helps also just know your doing great it does get easier it just takes time you got this mama🥰💖

Im at 18 months and only just feeling like ive got a good balance
