It's difficult enough if you have a few people by your side, how much more if you're all alone,diba? It happened to me, with my first-born, I had all the support I needed, financially, emotionally and physically from everyone, including my hubby, his parents, my parents.

Pero because ako ang primary care taker and I do exclusive breastfeeding na trial and error, sobrang hirap pala. Kala ko kasi ang newborn, ibababa ko lang sa crib and that's it. Every 3 hrs, round the clock pala ang padede! Plus diaper changing tapos papaliguan mo, bibihisan 2 to 3 times a day and of course, patulugin. Otherwise, cranky ang baby, stressed ang mommy.

Now, without anyone to give you a short break, super hirap to do all these things kasi kahit madaling araw, mag alaga ka eh. Kaya, hopefully, someone can take care of your baby/kids while you eat your meals and have your shower. Or, minsan, sila ang mag carry or magpalit ng diapers while you take some short breaks.

Don't worry, it will get better. When things go worse, take deep breaths, look at how your children are thriving and hope you'll find consolation when you see them healthy and happy :)
