[quote=Anonymous]I am totally in agreement with OP and 1041... a self confessed control freak who had a hard time adjusting to "not being in charge." Not only are you not in charge of your daily life and schedule, you are no longer in charge of your own body. For me this started with labor (water broke, needed Pitocin, major snowstorm, omg). And it got worse before it got better. OP how old is DS? Around the time DD could sit by herself for 5 mins, so mommy could take a shower, things got much, much easier. I just finally had to let go of it all and accept that I can only control so much of what happens these days. Not gonna lie, that took awhile (and I am back at work, so a large stretch of each day IS kind of under control). Is DH in the picture? Letting him do one night feeding (or alternating nights) would probably help you a lot. Or if he can hang with DS for a few hours on the weekends, so you can get out by yourself.[/quote]
