Hi I am asking for insight as a first time mom from those with grown cjildren.

I have a 7 month old. While I love my baby and enjoy most of the time spent, this is so hard. Baby is always 'stuck' with me since they need to eat all the time, I can't nap, I never napped, so sleep is my biggest issue which triggered a lot of things

I have heard by 4 months; I'm just hoping to hear it gets better. I've worked and went to school full time before the baby, a part of me wants to continue with my career but I feel drained, tired, and I make too many mistakes to be out in the workforce.

Don't get me wrong please I am still bonding, but I do everything for my baby, I have skipped showers for myself, gone out for errands with baby food on my hair. Cut out unnecessary video gaming time, etc.

I am always learning what to do and not to do, everyday is something new and unexpected. I know a whole chunk of my life is devoted to baby. When is it going to get easier, ie: when they potty train/ go to school? Thank you so much. You can ask me anything too
