Kelly - my advice to new mums (including myself lol) is to absolutely write off the first year... if you get decent sleep it's a bonus, but expect none.... low expectations are much easier to live with..... just rest/shut your eyes when you can.... I highly recommend an eye pillow, in case you get a spare 10 mins in the day to literally just shut your eyes.... I'm a great advocate of the power nap, it'll save you sanity if you can pull it off. Hang in there babe, Campbell will likely be more wakeful for some time now.... by 3 months he will start sleeping longer and be a tiny bit more predictable. Hugs babe, sleep deprivation is hard, but goes hand in hand with little kids.... xoxoxo
Well girls, got a massage booked, lunch date with girlfriend (child free), a movie, and thinking about a reflexology for next week :-) can't wait for a break! Love to all, Lee xo
