[quote=Anonymous]Try to reframe your thinking. In some ways the newborn stage is really easy. Yes they eat every three hours but its just boob or bottle, not toddlers begging for snacks constantly and having to come up with creative meals, prep them, clean them up, deal with picky eating and preferences, etc. They sleep all the time. They can nap on the go at Target or whatever. If they cry you basically just feed them, change them, or give them some fresh air and they stop. Just do whatever you need to to make this time easier -- switch to formula (8 weeks of breastmilk is wonderful! more than my (very healthy) kids got!), cosleep at night sometimes, nap with the baby during the day. And, yes, as you know (but might not recall right now), this time FLIES by. The baby will be crawling in one second. Try to enjoy it! [/quote]
