H is taking the day off work Thursday to take the twins to the zoo with his parents. He invited me to come with. God I want to go so badly, (love taking the kids these kind of places) It's killing me to stay home alone with Lilly :-(
You sure about the fantasy you are creating here? You are post partum, you want to bring a NEWBORN to the zoo? With the twins...? Hmmm...yeah I'm not sure you are being realistic
And if your plan was to have a babysitter, I have to say that leaving the baby at home the first month often is harder than we expect...we call every hour, we feel distracted and we are TIRED...God, I think you're brilliant to stay home with Lilly.
When I think back on how I felt when I had our children, it gets fuzzy b/c of extreme sleep deprivation, and feeling some physical pain too.
If I were you, and if I could, I'd want a baby sitter AND then
I'd take a 1) bath, AND OR 2) a Nap... or maybe get a massage/your hair done.
Just shaving my legs was a real effort that first month..
Give that some thought and adapt to whatever breaks you may get. Take them!
