A new baby

An experience famous for pushing NT to the edge. So I'm wondering how other ND parents found the first few months & years of having a child?My son turns 6 months old this Saturday and, he is amazing, but after navigating the birth in a pandemic and remaining supportive to my partner throughout, I find myself to be a stressed out, overworked, overwhelmed, bag of mess each day now. I feel like I never spend time alone anymore to recharge and often meltdown in various ways, constant migraines and flare-ups of sensitivities in the process.
Will it get easier? Or are we not really built for this journey?

  • Congrats on the new addition to your family! That’s such an exciting time, and I imagine how thrilled you must be. Babies can bring so much joy and a bit of chaos, but it's all part of the fun. I remember when I had my little one, I was always looking for samples to try out.
