My DP's paternity leave finishes today, he was meant to have booked tomorrow and Friday off and return to work on Monday but the silly man forgot to ring his work to arrange it so he's back tomorrow. First time round I wasn't so daunted by the prospect of him going back to work how ever this time round I have a 2.5 year old and of course a newborn and I really have no idea how I'm going to fit everything in, especially as newborn likes to be held a lot and takes ages to settle after a feed.
I'm sure it's perfectly manageable since people do it every day. I have a baby carrier which should help a lot. I'm just wondering if anyone had any other tips on how to cope? Let's just say I'm not expecting to get a lot done housework or cooking wise.
