I’m SO proud I just need to brag

I am a first time mom. My baby is only 3 weeks old. It has been ROUGH. I was so sore from childbirth beyond the point I couldn’t walk, or even climb out of bed. My newborn wouldn’t sleep at night. Maybe only 40 minute intervals at the most. I was beyond exhausted to the point I would break down in tears. It would take me 4 hours to put my baby to sleep for the night, starting at 8 pm and dealing with a fussy baby until midnight- sometimes longer. I was getting so frustrated thinking I was doing something wrong and I was also so afraid of getting postpartum depression from being so sleep deprived.

However, I am now officially pain free! I can walk again and do more throughout the day without running to my medicine cabinet for pain relievers constantly. But most importantly, I FINALLY (THANK THE LORD) got my baby on a sleeping schedule throughout the night. He sleeps from 10:30 at night until 3 or 4 in the morning for his next feeding. Thats at least 5 hours of sleep for me!!! It may not sound like a lot but it has done wonders...I feel so much better physically and mentally.

I just needed to brag because I never thought I would see the end of my sleepless nights. It took lots and lots of patience and just learning my baby and his preferences in general. ❤️❤️🥰
