It’s a tough time! I didn’t cook dinner for at least 3 months because it was too hard. Showering was a big achievement

Such an honest account of the newborn days

loved alone time with my newborns…but i also wanted to show them off to the world too lol…
you are wrapped up in a bubble of love and your whole world revolves around the new baby…i miss those days

rings too true in this house. You love your new family bubble!

I didnt want to go anywhere either but I did long for someone to come and give me a hand. I would have loved it if someone had come and simply held my daughter while she screamed and allowed me to prep every thing for dinner or get my nappies in the wash for the day.

Congrats guys! Can totally understand not leaving home now. Why would you when everything you need is right there in front of you

If only most of us had the choice to stay in the we wanted to! A couple of weeks with family support then alone and doing household chores is the norm.

I deliberately tried to minimise commitments for a few months so I didn’t have to run around frantically.

  It is a time when you need to do this, same here! 🙂

I was shocked at just how much work a baby is.

At the beginning I used to stay longer inside the house too. Slowly things changed, luckily. It will be the same for Rose and her cute little boy! 🙂

The early days can take a lot of adjustment.
