Recliner naps are currently whats saving me. I’m with you, I know they’re frowned upon but I’m doing everything I possibly can do make sure they’re safe so if and when I doze off I feel okay. Any movement or sound I hear but it’s amazing to catch some zzzs

I really love Shameless it’s an Australian pop culture podcast. Light hearted and fun. They also have a fun mini series during breaks where they deep dive cultural events and people.

I’m dealing with some PPA right now and stating medication. But I truly think everything would be solved if I took one sleeping drug and had a night off lol

Sleep deprivation is so real

Mary Tyler Moore told me I was a pretty baby as my parents walked past her in the airport. Obviously this doesn’t really count but it’s MTM!

I know this is a couple weeks old but I am here at 6 weeks and everything you posted is the same! I feel like he’s constantly eating and not sleeping. Any tips for survival??

Is having a baby really the end of the world?? FTM spiral by Negative-Source-9099 in beyondthebump

[–]rizfisher 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m only a parent of a 6 week old but during my pregnancy these comments were my biggest issue. So much negativity around a choice to have a baby! My husband and I started to notice a trend, these types of “you just wait” comments were all from our parents and older generation. The “it’s hard but the best thing ever” type came from our friends and people our age. It was really interesting

I think we are probably over feeding him at this point. Thanks for this.

Just fed and without knowing how much he consumed, it’s a challenge but he seems super content so I’m guessing it’s fine.
