[quote=Anonymous]I’ll address your sleep issue because that hit home for me. I had twins and was lucky enough to have sick leave to take 14 weeks off after they were born. By 12 weeks they were sleeping 12 hours a night (no crying it out, for those who want to say I must have abused my children to make that happen), so I had two weeks worth of 8-9 hours a night before I returned to work. So, my advice for you on that front would be to make sure you have enough leave for a good maternity leave and work on a sleep schedule starting when they’re around 8 weeks old so you can slowly wean them from nighttime feedings. And yes, it’s hard, but like with most things, your life will find a way to adapt to your new normal. [/quote]
