How!?

Make up? Whats that? 😂 I don't bother. If someone doesn’t like my face, thats their problem, not mine

My little one is 13 months I struggled to, I managed to get him to sleep in his cot for the start of the night that really helped me, we co sleep once he's woke up from the cot tho, when I didn't my hair id use his jumperroo or put him in a carrier and stand at my mirror, not sure if that could work for you, also if your weening you could try letting bub self feed a snack while you're getting ready xx

Hey, honestly, I think everyone’s experience is so different and some stages are just pure survival mode ❤️ I was out with my little one from 3 weeks old, even if it was only short walks round the area for a change of scenery for us both. I think having a spring/summer baby helped too.

I signed up for lots of free groups so we had something to do daily during the week — baby groups, library singalongs, baby massage, swimming and weirdly having somewhere to be helped me keep a routine at home too, it gave us both structure. I knew he would want a nap by time we got home from all the stimulation so that was my 3 hours to clean, cook, do some self care ( paint my nails/ have a bath, binge netflix) 2 hours out made a big difference mentally for me, as i meet mums who also had 3-6 weeks old so we met up often.

But honestly… if you’re up 5+ times a night, feeding, weaning and managing another child with little support, you’re doing a LOT. Some days getting everyone fed and dressed is enough ❤️
