Hello all I'm looking for advice really. I have a lovely 2 month old ds i love being his mum but I find the days/nights when I'm alone the hardest, infact I'm really not enjoying it and I hate to admit it! I'm lucky that I have a husband whose working but he out the house from 730-630/45 five days a week and on sundays he sees his friends from 4-10pm. Twice a week i go to mum and baby groups which break up the day, and every day i pop ds in the sling and walkthe dog for at least two hours (ending up bf in the park!). I just can't stand being in the house alone esp when his colic starts i feel like he really hates being with me when i cant settle him.I used to paint, read and watch tv/craft but now it seems pointless and/or I can't concentrate on them long enough. I feel terrible as I'm so tired some days that I just take us both to bed and housework has started to slip. When he was first born I used to sling him and get housework/baking done, read etc but that initial energy and positivity has gone completely. Will it get better? I feel terrible as my son was so wanted after several mc and i have been looking forward to being a mum. Help!
