Is it selfish to miss my old lifestyle as a single mom?

As a single mom, I've had to change a lot about how I live and what I do. Sometimes I miss my old routines like traveling, camping, or staying out late, and I wonder if it’s selfish to feel that way now that my life revolves around my child. Has anyone else felt this way, and how do you cope with those feelings?

Contraception

I’m 8w postpartum and have my 8w pp health check this week, I’m assuming they’ll want to discuss contraception.

I’m EBF, my period hasn’t returned yet and I know I might like to have another child within the next 24 months.

It took us 3.5years to conceive our first due to some issues with ovulation so don’t want to leave it too long before trying for the second just in case it takes as long as I’m over 35yo.

I’m not sure what to do with contraception I’m considering to go back on the pill as it’s easier to stop but I’m wondering if starting the pill while EBF will kickstart monthly periods?

I’d also like to hear what everyone would do in this situation and what you are planning on doing?
