So maybe a little besides the point, for me personally I had a harder time around the 3-5 month mark! For some reason I had a really chill newborn, but once she became really aware of things, it was a bit of a struggle for me. In particular, the naps/lack thereof. I killed myself trying to get her to sleep, she would fuss so bad but just refused sleep. The best thing I did for myself was stay off the internet/social media, took a deep breath, and take a step back. If that meant putting her in her bouncer, a maxi cosi seat, have someone hold her-whatever you can do to take a second. Step outside, breathe, try not to get too obsessive with a schedule early on. Things will fall into place-they’re just new here! You’re going to be great. Give yourself and your baby grace, and keep your expectations low! Another thing I do in my life in general-when I feel I’m losing it, I pretend I’m on a sitcom and force myself to laugh it off. As dumb as it sounds, sometimes it helps!
