[quote=Anonymous]When DS was a newborn, we ran on lists. Every day there was a list of things that needed to get done and DH and I would split it up. I did not do chores around the house every time DS napped. I napped myself. Or took a shower. Or just took 30 min to read a book or watch TV. You're recuperating too and you need to take care of yourself. I do think it is important to leave him alone with the baby for an hour or two so he can get some bonding time and some time to figure things out. Pump or use formula, either is completely fine.
