[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here I haven’t been monitoring this thread much but we found a few daycares that seemed nice. My wife is wanting to work because she needs a break from watching her. I’m at work all day and then come home and need to cook, clean, laundry, etc so the baby is still with her. I always offer to watch the baby to let her exercise and go out, have personal time as well but it’s still a lot of time she’s spending stuck watching the baby and breastfeeding. [/quote] The first bit can be incredibly hard, especially when nursing because you can't be away from the baby or a pump for more than a couple hours. And some babies really struggle with being put down in the early stages. It can be very isolating and exhausting. I used to joke that I felt like the milk machine during those days. It's mentally very draining. Remember this time is temporary and things will get better. It sounds like she needs some help right now. [/quote]
