It is so relentless. I have hit a bit of a wall. I feel like a fat, sweaty mess. DD is 3 weeks old. I should have remembered this from ds.
I feel trapped in a cycle of feeding, holding washing bottles, sterilising etc. By the time I finish feeding her (it can take over an hour) and start preparing it is time to start again. I can't bloody do anything without ds needing a toilet or dd being feeling. Bottle feeding sucks s. It s a huge faff and I wish I didn't have to.
She cries when put down. I have a sling, but can't use it all time, like to shower or sleep!
I can't predict her feeds, so I am awake now as she wnt sleep and will want feeding again soon I think
I know, I know this too shall pass. But do people really enjoy this stage?
