Hi indi,
Welcome to Mumstown!!
Ah, feeding through the night, I remember it well. My daughter is 2 now so we have stopped breastfeeding but the little rascal still wakes up 4-5 nights a week so we are still having interrupted sleep….its not easy!
Going back to work or not is such a contentious issue – you want the social interaction and feeling of fulfillment but its a nightmare leaving baby.
I struggled to go back after my first baby but just as I got my head around it, I was made redundant and part of me was relieved. I was sad to lose my job because I loved it but I was delighted to stay at home with our son.
I work from home now most days and manage it around my children but somedays that it tough too.
Being a mammy is such a balancing act and we don’t always get it right so be kind to yourself and try to go with your gut and see what feels right and works well for you.
Where are you living – there might be a group of mums who meet near you?
Hope that helps…..
