Hi all
I have a 15 week old boy who I adore. He’s very much wanted and loved.
Obviously was pregnant and gave birth during Covid so it’s hardly been relaxed.
I have to be honest I am not enjoying maternity leave at all. I can’t tell if it is due to Covid restrictions and weirdness for going out / seeing people. Or if I’m just not cut out for it. I am bored, frustrated with no time to do anything properly, I still can’t tell what he needs when he cries (nap, food, pain) I still get it wrong. I’m worried he’s under stimulated and bored.
Also my husband is working from home so just sees me moping about. I feel embarrassed. I do go out for a walk every day, but other than that he is either napping, feeding or we are playing on his playmat or in his chair. What else do people do? What’s a normal day / week routine? Why do I feel so bored?
Any advice please help
Thanks
