    Congrats. Got our 1 month old sleeping in my arms as I type. The first few weeks are a blur but damn I wouldn’t trade them for anything so far.

        Feel free to DM anytime to commiserate 😀 I will say one thing that I learned early on is its ok to put the baby down and let it cry for a few minutes if you need a break. They’ll be pissed, but perfectly fine (assuming normal safety precautions). Also, if you have friends/parents/siblings/inlaws/whoever that can help take the baby off your hands for even an hour, it can make all the difference

          Thanks for the offer. We do have a good amount of support. It’s more-so about utilizing them in a way that doesn’t drive us nuts lol
