Need encouragement

MeggieChrisMeggieChris

DD is 5 weeks old and I'm still trying to figure out this whole Mommy thing. DD is also high needs and has acid reflux. Add in the fact that I'm a single mom... It's been a hard day and I need encouragement. My family helps a lot but DD has been screaming for four hours now and I've been on the phone with my lawyer off and on all day. The ex is being a loser yet again. I feel so broken down and weary. It gets better right?

    It takes time..but things do get much better. Just take a deep breathe, and try to relax. Remember they only stay young for so long...you will miss it when your dd is no longer a baby.

    Yes, it will get better. But there will always, always be bad days and good days. That's normal -- especially being a single mom. It kind of comes with the territory.

    Your DD is still very young. As she gets older and the two of you get into a good schedule and routine, things will be better.

    Hang in there!

    Hang in there! It will get better. Newborns are tough enough, add on the other issues and you've got a VERY full plate. Being a new mommy is tough. Being a new and single mommy is even tougher. Like I said, hang it there. It will get better. :)
