Get a low light night light for the bedroom. This will come in handy for all the wake ups overnight. Be gentle on yourself. You’ve just grown a human! And…..a tip for friends and those people wanting to help a friend who is a new Mum. Don’t just say “Let me know if you need anything, or if I can help”, be specific. Instead say……
“Hey, I’m dropping a meal on your doorstep, there is a cake there too – eat the whole thing.” “Let me come round for half an hour to fold your washing and make you a cup of tea.”
“I’m going to come around and hold baby while you have a hot shower”. Saying “Let me know if you need anything” is nice, but a lot of new parents probably won’t. Above all else, be kind to yourself and don’t do it alone. There is a reason why they say it takes a village to raise a child.
