[quote=Anonymous]Only advice is to enjoy your peace and quiet now. You’ll never get it back. Also being home 24/7 caring for a child is really exhausting esp at the beginning so arrange for as much support as you are able… family, friends, nanny, babysitter etc. I took off the first 10 months with my oldest before I went back to grad school for a career change, and while I cherish the memories and time I had with her (which I didn’t have with my second), when you are going through it the saying ‘the days are long but the years are short’ is spot on. It’s also really boring after awhile so once you’ve recovered from giving birth and sleep deprivation, join lots of mommy groups and get yourself a weekly and daily schedule to help pass the time .[/quote]
