“I figured that already! But I am off on holiday so need something to read, so though I might get something useful for a change.”
Dont read, just sleep now while you can and try and remember what its like, because you will feel tired, no exhausted for years to come.
We didnt bother with a book, as every kid is different and there are too many variables. What works for one family might not work for another.
Babies are very hard work for little reward, its just a cycle of feeding, pooing, sleeping, crying etc etc. Dont get me wrong its quite amazing at the same time, but as above a cat or dog is more fun in the early days.
One thing I quite often here, but very few people wont say in public is that they fined babies very hard work, with little reward. I think this is true, and certainly Jnr FD was hardwork being seriously ill nearly every week and not sleep well. However now just over 2 being a Dad is the most amazing experience, and as a family we have never laughed so much or felt so loved.
Plus in August I’m going part time to look after Jnr FD 😀 and maybe ride my bike a little more
