Let your Mum come and stay - even if you dont think you will enjoy the experience. She will want to do everything to help - specially cooking breakky, settling the baby, bathing, picking cute clothes to wear for the day, and always making you feel like someone elses little girl.

Dont plan bedtime. When the baby goes down at night - you go down too - whether it be 7pm or 10pm. Any sleep is going to help, specially if it is a custard night.

Dont feel bad about asking visitors to leave. Specially unannounced ones, even if they bring presents. Just say - now isn't such a good time, I really need some alone time, I'm going to feed and I'm not comfy with people in the house. Whatever - just dont feel bad aboutit!

Love your Man for all he's worth. Mine is an angel.
