Your baby

All beginnings are difficult and it will certainly feel unfamiliar. Know that the maternity nurse can tell and explain everything to you. Make use of this, because before you know it, she won’t be there anymore! Try to catch up on sleep whenever possible. The broken nights will take their toll anyway, so if you have the time to catch some sleep, you should definitely do it. Sometimes it can also work well to alternate the care for the baby (for example, at night) so that the other can recharge. If you are an easy sleeper, it may be more practical to do the night feedings more often so that your partner can rest.
