So I know I’m mother now and i love my baby. She is 20wks old and the most precious little thing. There is literally nothing I wouldn’t do for her...but it’s so hard taking any time for myself.

Even though I have help...my husband is amazing and wants to look after her while he’s home—baby hates being away from me. Anything more than 10mins and she gets so cranky. She’s EBF, so I always make sure she’s well fed before handing her to my husband or anyone else. But she can’t deal with being away from me.

Thankfully I work from home, so I don’t have to worry about daycare or babysitters for now, because I don’t know how we would have dealt with separation like that.

Is this something that all babies do or my LO just exceptionally attached to me? Will she grow out of it soon? Just so I can sometimes take some time off for myself?
