Any tips? I am a first time mother. I having a hard time, keeping the house clean, watch my son and cook dinner. My boyfriend works nights at a hospital and he helps out on his days off but we are both tired. I don't sleep well because My son has been having trouble sleeping long periods of time. 4-5 hrs if I am lucky. He is very active and crawls everywhere. I have to watch him like a hawk and then by the time he sleeps Im too exhausted from staying up and playing. Then I get depressed because the house is not clean, sometimes I am not able to cook. I don't feel like I am doing enough. i do not work and i feel like I should get more done. My boyfriend works 12 hr shifts and I want him to come home to a clean house, clean wash, and dinner made. I just feel bad like its really bothering me. Anyone have any tips on how to do this all because its getting overwhelming and the lack of sleep makes me feel like a zombi. I am trying my best but doesnt feel like its good enough.
