The best thing someone told me before I had this baby was... “Just remember, you have to push yourself to make it through the first six weeks and then things will get better”.

On the worst nights when LO went through her fussy growth spurts and I worried about the choking sounds she made because of her reflux...I kept telling myself I just need to make it to 6wks. It’s been hard, as a first time mom, but I did it somehow.

Now, peanut is 7 weeks and things are so much better. It’s getting easier and I’m really starting to enjoy our baby and motherhood.

This is definitely the same advice I’ll give any first time parent.
