Aaaaaaaand we’re crashing 😅😴
My daughter exclusively nurses (won’t take a bottle, never has) and I have never been away from her for more than an hour. I love being a mom. We’re doing attachment parenting, she naps on me, co-sleeping at night, and I really truly love it. But hot dang it’s a LOT. I feel bad for sometimes wishing I had some time with no one touching me 🙈 I know it’s biologically natural for her to need me this much and I really make it a point to attend to every one of her needs. I know it won’t last forever. Some days though I just have a lot of self doubt.
I don’t want to change the way I parent, because it is working for us. I’m just a little burnt out. My husband is wonderful and involved however he works 6-7 days a week (full time office job + owns his own business) so he’s not home a lot.
Other mamas who’s babies don’t take bottles, do you ever feel like this? Since she relies on me for food it’s not practical for me to take a day or even an afternoon to myself but does anyone have suggestions for ways that I can recharge my batteries? I’d appreciate it 💕
