Cooper generally only naps for 40 min to maybe an 1.5 hours and yes, I often find myself just drifting off, and then up Cooper wakes! And yes Mads, I feel even worse!

Mum helps in a lot of ways, but Cooper is very clingy at the moment. He is fine when I am there, but if I go out for an hour, most of the time he is whingy and looking around for me, and I think he can be a bit of a handful for Mum - she looks stressed out sometimes when I get home. So as you can see, I am trying to find that balance of sanity from getting a break, and not creating too much stress for my mother!!

Motherhood truly is wonderful, even being a single Mum, and yes, I am grateful to have supportive parents, but adjusting to being a Mum and living back with your own parents again after being an independent woman for nearly 10 years - well let's just say, it's a huge change for any person!!
