Sundown scarries

You got this mama! It's very hard for us too. Just trying to take one day at a time.

It's very hard for just a short time! Hang in there! My first was very, very difficult at night. But before I knew it, he was sleeping well. Trying to remind myself of that while in the trenches of those night feeds with my second. It's just a short time...hang in there! It gets better!

Thank you both 🤍 it’s hard not to feel like I’m doing something wrong, I can’t imagine doing this with another little one at home so KUDOS to you!!!👏🏼

Yes, the worst time for me is when I lay down to sleep. My brain will not shut off with all the unwanted thoughts. I've had to start watching rug cleaning videos to fall asleep 😅 Apparently they distract/calm my brain

This too shall pass mama ♥️

Yes, completely. We have a 2.5 year old too who's going through a phase of being terrified of monsters. We started separating at night and one of us sleep with the toddler for the first half of the night and then switch off to the newborn in a different room but its just exhausting with both kids. The baby wakes up every couple of hours to eat and poop and the toddler also wakes up periodically to be scared and need reassurance she's safe and we're still there with her. I don't even know how it's going to go when my husband has to go back to work in a week 🙃

I was just about to post about the same thing. I feel like my life right now lives in 2-3 hour increments and nothing gets accomplished the way I need to. I’m having to pump every 2-3 hours in order to feed my LO every 2-3 hours (she can’t latch due to tongue and lip ties). If I’m lucky I get 4-5 hours sleep but it’s spread out in 2 hour increments and it takes a toll on my mental state. I spent most of the night crying last night because it all seemed to be too much. I try to tell myself it is short lived, it won’t last forever, but the light at the end of that tunnel seems so far away. So just know you’re not alone. We just have to stick together and boost each other up. You can do this, I can do this! It won’t be forever. We can do this.
