My baby is 2 weeks old and I’ve been feeding her every 2-3 hours. But I’ve become so drained from not sleeping and not eating (I’ve completely lost my appetite) I’ve become pale and feeling sick. Would it be ok to just let her sleep through a feeding so I can get some rest? My boyfriend keeps telling me to just let her sleep and to get rest myself but it’s so hard for me because I’m just someone who needs to follow the rules or my anxiety takes over..

my baby is healthy and gaining weight. So would it be ok? How do you ladies deal with the exhaustion?
