Parenting after a Loss

DH gone for a week

DH had to go to Minnesota for a week for training. Which means I'm hands on Jackson the whole week. Well I work 50 hours a week and my mil has Lo during the week and I'm usually always on Lo duty but I'm just worried about sleep? And DH would drop off Jackson in the mornings and pick him up after work since it's 30 min opposite way of work. I never get help on night feedings. My choice so that's not my concern but my days are going to be that much longer.
I guess there is no real reason to this post other than me getting my concerns out there.

Re: DH gone for a week
I can see your concerns...it's going to be a little harder of a week but you'll get through it. My DH will be out of town for a week in July and I am already dreading that - DH usually does the drop-off and most times the pick-up as well. Obviously this is a little different since we have a 2yo, but it definitely sucks when you have to be the 24/7 parent for a period of time like that when you're usually not.

Good Luck!!
Being on your own with LO can be rough. My DH traveled about 3 weeks of each month after we had our DD. I was struggling with PPD and even though I'm a SAHM I was overwhelmed. The thing I learned through all of it was to just take each moment for it's own. Don't think about the next day or even the next hour. The house work can wait. It is a great time to bond one on one with your LO. Don't worry too much about sleep a little relaxation in front of the tv or on line can do you some good. You'll still need a little me time so take it
Good luck and I hope that helps!
