Hi all,
I'm a new stay home mom, gave birth in Nov 2013 and since then has been staying home taking care of my 6 mths old bb alone. I have an elder girl of 8 years old, she goes to the student care after school so will only be back at home during evening time so which means full day I will be alone with baby. MIL come by to make dinner and take care of bb for a while when I goes out to fetch my girl from the student care.
I find being a stay home mom seems more tough then working in an office. Not that I do not like to spend time with my bb, I do, just that I am quite at lost what to do with a baby for the entire day. I'm still exclusive pumping 6 hrly for my bb but he is mostly on FM as my supply is not enough. Thinking of giving up entirely as once or twice feed per day doesnt seem much of an effect for him I feel. Can someone share with me the experience of being a SAHM with a bb and usually that you do with the baby in the entire day? Do you cook lunch for yourself or eat out? I find eating out is a chore as my bb is a reflux bb, he is esily to puke milk if never handle him properly such pressing on his tummy or he will burp on his own very often and milk will flow out from his mouth and this is definitely a hassle if to bring him out.
Clueless as a first time sahm. Hpee someone can share their experiences with me, thanks!
