[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not easy, but doable. However, have some sort of support system just in case.  If DH falls and twists his ankle, who can come and help?  find a friend or relative willing to step in. It's tough at that age by yourself mostly for the lack of sleep.  Second the advice to pre-prepare everything - frozen meals and snacks for dad, formula stash, diaper stash, do all laundry before you leave, have emergency contacts prominently displayed - periatrician, plumber, HVAC company.  Also write out schedule and algorythm for whatever it is that mostly you do regularly (sterilize bottles? )

If you don't have a Snoo, now is a good time to get one:)

OP said her MIL can come help and her son sleeps an 8 hour stretch at night. Her husband will get sleep. I'm sure OP's husband knows the numbers to the pediatrician's, plumber, and HAVC company. OP's husband has been home and I'm sure he knows what to do with his child. I doubt they need a snow since OP's baby sleeps an 8hour stretch at night.
