Thanks, this pandemic is definitely stupid and hard. Makes me too afraid to go to baby groups and do things incase we get sick or he gets that RSV thing that is putting babies in hospital.

I don't have a support network, I haven't spoken to any other mums since I gave birth (except my mum but that's a whole other story lol) so it's hard to know if I'm doing anything right or what's normal.

I can't afford any kind of childcare, we are on that line of earning just enough to not qualify for any benefits. But we do try to take in turns when he's home and can hold the baby for a bit. I will try to be kind to my body..I know our bodies can do these amazing things. I think food is just my last comfort that I'm allowed to have, and I was so sick and lost lots of weight in the first half of my pregnancy, now I can't stop eating. I'm sure a lot of it is boredom/comfort eating. Hopefully it will get better as baby can move around more and I can't sit still so much!
