When does it get easier with a newborn?

[Hel1985]

I have three children 6, 4 and 7 weeks, they are the best thing that has ever happened to me...... But I am so looking forward to our new born stage to move on. I feel like I've completely forgotten all the baby stages and I can't seem to keep my head above water at mo. The main thing im struggling with is getting my newborn to nap, it takes a long time and she gets distressed and my over two always seems to want my attention at that precise moment and I feel like I can't meet everyone needs and I'm failing.
With naps there's no quick fix and I'm searching and attempting every trick to help her nap. When I do get her to nap I'm already dreading the next nap time to do it all over again. It's relentless sometimes, but I guess that's life with 3 little ones and I'm hoping it does get easier 🙏

Try a sling to keep you ‘accessible” while the baby sleeps- it might not suit but it might! Also remember this passes-3 months and they are somehow more ‘normal’, not so alien and fragile.

Thank you for your reply. I'm holding out till 3 months 🙏 x

We are at 13 weeks and all naps are on the sling. She still won’t tolerate laying down (reflux) but the sling always works. A sling is at easier for the school run than a prom and you have few bands.
