Hi there! I completely understand where you're coming from. Managing a newborn without hiring a confinement nanny can definitely be tough, but it's absolutely manageable with the right support and preparation. Firstly, it's important to establish a support system. Lean on your partner, family members, and friends for help during the postpartum period. Don't be afraid to ask for assistance with household chores, cooking, or looking after the baby while you catch up on some much-needed rest. Secondly, consider hiring a postpartum doula if a confinement nanny isn't an option for you. A postpartum doula can provide invaluable support and guidance as you navigate the early days of motherhood. Additionally, take the time to prepare and organize your living space before the baby arrives. Stock up on essentials such as diapers, wipes, and baby clothes. Having everything you need within arm's reach can make a world of difference. Lastly, remember to prioritize self-care. Taking care of a newborn is physically and emotionally demanding, so don't forget to take care of yourself too. Rest when the baby sleeps, eat nourishing meals, and don't hesitate to seek professional help if you're feeling overwhelmed. You've got this, mama! Trust in your abilities and don't be afraid to reach out for help when you need it. You're doing an amazing job. https://invl.io/cll6she

Are you sure you’re not chatgpt/ an AI bot? 😅

Because baby’s birth falls near CNY so the surcharge is x.x so I didn’t have nanny or any help other than my husband. Not gonna sugar coat, definitely tough at first, especially when you’re gonna bf/pump. The hard part is trying to get used to frequent waking up to feed baby/pump, lack of sleep. I had frequent mastitis and my husband went back to work so I’m alone with baby. Even when I’m half dead, I still have to attend to baby because there’s no extra help. Other than the above, everything else is pretty much manageable. - Get more bottles and pump parts so you don’t have to wash every use, can accumulate till end of day. - Put baby in stroller or baby wear so you can at least eat/go restroom. - Get handsfree pumps instead of tubes kind so that you can free your hands/walk around while pumping. I don’t regret not having nanny because by the first month, I pretty much got used to the routine and even when my husband ended his PL, I could still manage baby myself (asides being half dead from mastitis).

Tbh, it is really tough.. However, it is manageable coz my partner is very supportive and efficient. I ordered confinement food and book a masseuse separately. Majority of the time, my partner helped me with the baby while I rest and recuperate
