Feeling alone...

Tay

Our baby boy is almost 7 weeks and it’s definitely been a struggle... he loves/needs to be snuggled and held constantly and I’m lucky to put him down for 30 minutes once a day to get anything done. Also have a 2 1/2 year old daughter and am struggling with keeping her entertained and giving her the attention she deserves from me... my husband works on the road and just got laid off about 2 weeks ago and I had been looking forward to him being home. I had thought that then I’d get a break and we could do this as a team... (we planned this pregnancy specifically tried for this baby so that I’d deliver when he was laid off because he said he wanted to be around to help) well fast foreword it’s been 2 weeks of him being home and literally I’ve gotten 10-15 min alone in the shower maybe once every 2-3 days... Baby boy is very fussy and it frustrates my husband. I literally feel like he hates our son... Like every time I try to give him to my husband he tends to cry within a few minutes and when I shower I can usually hear him crying in the other room the whole time I shower... it’s awful and idk what to do... I feel like a single parent I am constantly stuck sitting on the couch/rocking chair holding him. I know it’s just a phase but I’m just so lost right now and I want to be able to just clean up the house a little, shower without rushing, leave the house to go grab a coffee... when does it end... My daughter was never this fussy/clingy... sorry for venting...
