breastfeeding

Pfft... No!! Why shouldn't they help out (your partner especially seeing as how he lives there too and it's his kids). 4 weeks is still super early days with a new baby and as long as your not living in filth enough to have DHS called a little housework that's left is fine... I have a five week old and granted I don't have another kid to look after but my house isn't exactly spotless (especially having a dog that malts like you would not believe 😂) and I could care less what anyone thinks. If they said something about my housekeeping I'd tel them where they could shove their opinion 😂😂

Your baby is hitting their first growth spurt so constant feedings are what they need right now. Your not being lazy, accept the help while its offered and just be gracious maybe send a nice thankyou card to ur MiL in the mail or something. Even a thankyou card to DH for just being supportive. I find, although he won't say, my husbands whole deminer changes if I leave him a not just saying how great he is. 

Don't feel lazy....it's totally normal.  

You're doing exactly what you're supposed to. Baby needs all of your time and attention. If you have the help you are very fortunate. Don't feel guilty, that's why you have a support system. Focus on baby and their needs.

People are crazy!! Using your baby as an excuse? Out of their minds. Your job is to focus on your baby! Your only job right now. It seems like you're doing a great job! Keep it up momma!

My little guy is 3 weeks old. First week or two I struggled balancing breastfeeding and other duties, but now at 3 weeks I have found a little bit if balance as we are getting on a routine. I do what I can for cleaning at least the basic and as much as my body can tolerate as I did have a c-section. But I do feel some days I am constantly feeding the baby and changing him. So those days not much gets done. We all just had babies adjusting to needs of a newborn as well as fulfilling our duties to families. The time will come when we are able to do all the normal things we did before baby but for now they aren't number one. Don't let anyone tell you that your lazy.

Do not feel guilty! I have a 4.5 week old and I swear all I do is breastfeed him and change him (non stop)! And the. Sleep during the day and up all night! Your baby needs you and your body needs to heal! 

Thank u guys for ur moral support 😊When "should" I be getting more housework done ?  Just trying to pace myself .
