The past two months were really hard for me. I was waking up extremely early to take my daughter to my sister so she could watch my daughter, then heading straight to work. On top of that, some nights my daughter would wake up in the middle of the night and wouldn’t go back to sleep until around 5am.
I was trying to push through it all, but I ended up getting overwhelmed and had to leave my job. Now I’m back struggling again and honestly just trying to figure things out.

Oh mama

I would say try working overnight once baby starts sleeping through the night. If your sister is still willing to help just have her watch the baby around those hours.

Yes definitely try overnight or if there are any remote opportunities in your state
