Hi ladies,
Whilst I am feeling much more positive about being a mummy than I was a few weeks ago, I still feel like we are getting nowhere fast with establishing any kind of routine with joey and I still find most days really really hard.
It seemed like we had a decent routine going and then since my mum babysitting on Friday it's all gone out of the window. He will only settle for me, even daddy can't do it (he's fine with him the rest of the time just not for being put to sleep) he won't go to sleep anywhere apart from in my arms and OH had to very gently move him once he's sound asleep. During the day I can't move cos he's asleep on me and if I try to move he wakes up screaming. Last night he wouldn't go down at all so I was up all night with him asleep on my lap.
I still have no time to wash my hair, eat, drink and the house is just getting worse by tge day. I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel at the mo. I'm exhausted, I feel a mess and my house is a mess.
Everyone said 6 weeks was a turning point, well he's 8 weeks now and I don't know when this is likely to get better xx
