The First 6-8 Weeks
- Establish feeding & sort out any feeding issues
- Make sure you are recovering both mentally & physically
- Cherish these moments, they are only a newborn once
- Get baby sleep ANYWAY you can
- Enjoy ALL the baby snuggles
You just gave birth, give yourself some grace. Focus on your recovery. Either C-section or vaginal, both need time to heal
Establish bonding & feeding with your littles. Makes sure you’re on a good 3 hour feeding schedule.
Enjoy those snuggles! Ugh, I could snuggle them forever! Even with a full bladder haha 😉
Get your little one to sleep anyway you can. Rocking, in carrier, stroller. Just get that sleep. Make sure they aren’t getting too tired before. 45 minute wake window, tops.
