Postpartum advice

[lalala5]

What do you wish you'd known about life postpartum? Im due my first very soon and any advice for after birth would be much appreciated!

Enjoy your first, watch lots of daytime TV and do things for yourself when they nap cos once you have two you rarely get a moment to yourself: feel like I spent my first mat leave feeling guilty for having tea in front of TV instead of doing ‘enriching activities’ with baby, now I wish I’d done it more...

Also make the most of going to pubs/ cafes/ restaurants when they’re newborn as when they get older these places can be pretty stressful.

DO NOT google stuff when you’re up in the night - sleep deprivation and 1st time anxiety can lead you down horrid google worm holes. get a kindle and read that instead.

Good luck OP motherhood is great!!!
