one week pp

i’m 17 years old and just recently had my baby. she was in a special care nursery for 3 days and recently came home 2 days ago.

she sleeps pretty good. it’s just i feel like i cannot sleep or something will happen to her. i wake up to every single noise she makes.

my boyfriend stays with her until 1 or 2 am then we switch off. we’ve been taking turns napping.

i have a REALLY good baby right now and i know it’s only going to get harder. i’m just so tired.

do you get used to being tired? does it ever get easier running on 2-3 hours of sleep?

i also never have time to eat. how do you even make time for yourself? and i feel terrible whenever anyone tries to help me.
