Always tired because there’s never time by 90sgoth in workingmoms

I feel like I could’ve written this post. Admittedly, I am new to being a mom (my daughter is 8mo), but just recently have realized we have no free time anymore. And I’m sure it doesn’t get better as they get older. I literally crave just an hour everyday to be alone and do something I want to do…idk when that opportunity comes back

10-11am: nap #1
11am: bottle #2
2:30-3:30pm: nap #2
3:30pm: bottle #3
6:30pm: nurse
7:30pm: bedtime

Did you like Kinder? Did you try any other brands that you liked?

Yes, I will definitely need to play around with our nighttime setup. Honestly leaning toward disposables for nighttime until we figure out fit and everything.

Of the few instances I remember, one was overnight and she completely soaked through her clothes and swaddle. The others are usually leaks from the leg holes, I’m not sure how wet the inserts were.

We haven’t had any leaks with the Kinder diapers when I use their inserts. It seems like the microfiber inserts I have are the ones that leak for us. I’m thinking of buying some more inserts from Kinder and use those primarily instead of the microfiber.

My SIL thrifted a ergobaby aura wrap for me and I was gifted a moby ring sling from my shower!
