One good place to start is by connecting with your local mothers groups online. Usually every area has Mom’s group you can find on Facebook. I would try to work out with another single mom childcare swapping.

It’s also helpful to find mothers support groups just for the community and possibility of making friends who can become supportive people in your life where you help each other out.

Also a baby carrier similar to the ergo is extremely helpful. Ergos are pretty expensive, but thankfully there are lots of off-brands these days. This will free up your hands so you can cook, eat, clean etc. Your baby will get used to it and may even get into the habit of falling asleep in it.

Just remember a baby's only form of expressing their needs or pain or tummy ache, hunger, etc is crying 🙁 But their little laughs and trying to
Say words and giggles are so worth any of it. 🌻💙😌But it'll go fast, it will. You're going to be ok, just take one moment at a time. It's ok if the house doesn't get cleaned everyday, you need to put you and your child first. Maybe you can take them in the spring to a baby class , like music or reading, and you can chat with other moms too. You're not alone🌼🤗

it gets easier. First few months is rough and you are always exhausted and sleep deprived and feel as if you made a mistake and not capable of doing this. But you are and i assure you, things get much better in no time at all

Please don’t despair. It’s super hard the first year. I was in a similar situation.
It’s the hardest job ever being a mom but you can do it I promise you. Don’t worry about the house work. Just do the minimum you need to for things to work, like make sure you have a set of cutlery to go and a plate and a cup. Do baby’s laundry stuff like that. Everything else can wait until you’ve got more time for yourself. It’s normal to not have time to eat properly or shower. You’ll be okay. Just stay safe from that fella.

Things will get better… he won’t be this little for very long. I know the days are long but the months and years really are so short. Even if he only sleeps for 20 minutes lay down when he does. Don’t worry about your house or cleaning. Look into a babysitter or daycare if possible. But maybe just a friend could take him for a couple of hours so you can sleep. His sleeping will get better… you just have to hold on…

Those first few month's is hard. U just sleep when your child does even if it is just a hour or 2

The baby part is the easiest part of the whole parenting. The bigger they get...the harder. So, enjoy now.
