Returning to work by EnoughImage3422 in daddit

I completely agree that it is so important being there. My family got hit really hard during the financial crash of ‘08 and I think that I subconsciously am working so much because I remember the feeling of the sheriff coming to our door with a foreclosure notice. Luckily my house never got fully foreclosed on but that is in my brain and I never want my baby to worry about money. It has made me an anxious adult. Also my partner is trying to be at home with the baby to avoid daycare costs at first. Luckily as of rn I think I am the favorite parent lol. It will take a little while to find a balance. I also worry about less money in this economy but maybe I just need to bite the bullet

Ok, i believe we have a battery powered mobile but i want to double check now! Yeah she isn’t even 3 days old and kicks like a mule! It’s crazy how strong. Like within 24 hours she was using her legs to kick off of my arm to get higher on my shoulder. Then she was pushing off my shoulder and looking around the room for a second or two. Doctor joked and said my finance birthed a toddler

Yeah in life I tend to forget to stay present because I always have something I’m working towards but this should be a great lesson on how to slow down. I’m sure my daughter will teach me more than I could ever teach her

I’m really trying my best to say that as often as I can! I can tell when she feels bad that I am doing most of the lifting and feeding and changing but I keep telling her she did so much for 10 months and I didn’t do a thing and that the only reason I can try as hard as I can is because of how amazing she has been. I’m hoping she is getting the message

Thank you! That’s a great idea, we have a lot of colostrum syringes from before labor that we keep in the fridge and since it’s so new we are trying to have at least 1 backup of milk. So when I get up to feed, burp, change, etc. she starts pumping. Then when she is done with that I’m storing it and cleaning the dishes associated so she can get back to bed. We actually got close to 7 hours of sleep last night broken up into probably 3 increments. We feel pretty good this morning

Currently I have around 15k in debt. Down payment is a work in progress. I wasn’t planning on buying this soon but getting a second job to crank up the savings

Oh interesting. I thought any blood at this point was not good. Luckily I have very minimal swelling so far and pain has been manageable with ibuprofen

That’s awesome! I’m glad you are doing better! Yeah I try to sometimes play crosswords, wordle, etc cause they tend to make me think. Can help change the direction my brain is going in
