I don't think I'm doing a good job

RoseVA · March 2014

I don't think I'm doing a good job of fitting the baby into our lives at all, I'm revolving everything around the baby. Is this how it's supposed to go as a FTM? I'm at home with my LO full-time and working from home part-time until I return to work next month. My baby's happy and healthy but I'm still in the cooped up in my house in PJ's, messy house, looking like a mess myself stage. Today we had nice weather and I tried to put him in the Ergo which he just wailed in so much I gave up and stayed inside. I thought that I'd be better adjusted after three months!

Yep. All of this.

When it was just one kid that was TOTALLY how my life was. Now with 2 I have no choice but to get my ass off the couch and shower and be productive. Like PP have said, even getting outside and putting LO on a blanket in the yard might be a good change of pace, and when you go back to work next month you will get back in the swing of things! Don't worry, you're doing just fine! Enjoy the downtime!
