After two weeks at home with M and me, hubs went back to work today. He was such a big help while he was home. He made meals, brought me food and water while feeding and grabbed M during the really fussy nights. He also ran errands and went grocery shopping. Last night was tough but I let him sleep knowing he had to get up early. He said to me this morning, "She slept well last night, huh?" Uh, no but you did!
Of course, today I've got a fussy-butt baby on my hands but, we'll deal. I do miss having a personal butler on hand!! This weekend, we prepared the kitchen so I have plenty of easy to eat foods available to me since I don't see myself cooking anything. Sandwiches for everyone!!
How did you deal with your so going back to work and leaving you home with the lo?
DH was doing a week of overnight shifts as his welcome back to work gift. I was really worried about dealing with a newborn 24 hours a day so we arranged for my brother to stay with us for a week. My bro helped with the dog, picked up meals, went to Costco, grocery store, cleaned up and did laundry. After that week, DH went back to more normal shifts and my C section incision was finally good enough for me to move around!
