[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m wondering if other moms feel this way? I love my daughter to death and she was extremely wanted and planned (IVF baby), but I find motherhood more challenging than I ever could have fathomed. I thought I knew what motherhood entailed going into it, but now I feel like I was so naive. The physical and mental demands are relentless. My baby is 9 months old. I still feel like I haven’t 100% adjustment to my new life. Does it get easier? [/quote] It’s hard. Once they’re on a consistent sleep schedule it can improve some. Please try to ensure that you continue to take care of yourself. Early on I had a sitter come for a 2 hours in the morning three days a week so I could go to the gym to take a class and run an errand for a time out. I couldn’t be w my baby 24/7. There were a few times when I had to walk away from my baby. Like to another room and breathe. [/quote]
