Big hugs Emma. I guess the only thing to say is that it will get better over time.
Priorities you and bubs. If you are feeling run down then you wont be producing as much milk...and that would just add to the nightmare. But on the plus side you have a beautiful healthy baby who wants nothing more than to be with you! This is her time to bond with you. Its hard to get things done but i dont think you want to miss out on this period either.
We went through the same thing with Ella, and now she looks at me and knows i will comfort her if she needs me. She now sleeps on her own and still from time to time likes me to rock her to sleep (which is fine by me)
Call family and friends to help clean, cook, come over to chat. I had ella sleeping on me and had a friend over for a quiet catch up.
