My poor husband is dreadfully tired. I’m back at work this week and he’s still on leave and taking care of baby most of the day/all night so I can be rested for work. It’s been a rough week for sure.
I hear you!! I started feeling more energized after consistently taking magnesium & vitamin b-6. I know that vitamin b-12 can help with fatigue too. You may be deficient in some vitamins! But hang in there mama ❤️❤️ you’re doing your best!
Also, pumping is another full-time job! It’s a lot! 😭
Pumping, nursing, crying fits.... short naps sometimes. I'm fucking exhausted. 3 months in and I'm so done 🤣
@Elizabeth lawd i was hoping it got better by month 3 lol 😂
But yes feel this 100%
@Jessica i was hoping the same! Yes she sleeps almost all the way through the night but that doesn't seem to make a difference with my exhaustion 🙄🤣
@Elizabeth are you still pumping overnight? I am, it’s exhausting. I want to stop but I make so many more oz at night.
I've stopped pumping at night after I go to bed. But I regret it every morning 🤣🤣🤣 sometimes I'll pump after I do a really early morning feed.
Yes! I’m exhausted even if he sleeps well. Which is really only 3 hour stretches before I need to feed him. But even a quick one hour nap today while my mom watched him made all the difference. Try and see if someone can take a shift for you??
