Who helped you to take care your newborn

I am alone with my newborn at home. I didn't get any help from my MIL. My mother lives in another country and she can not come and help me. My husband is busy earning for the family and he has night shifts too.. Not enough money to spend to hire a helper. I am stressed with all the new changes and have no sleep. How can I deal with this? any mum here who took care newborn alone?

same case here.mil only comes occasionally.. take a breather when u need to. for example stand outside of your house and enjoy the natural beauty.. get your husband to take care of the baby once he has washed up etc after work. then you get a good long shower and put on your night facial routine. or anything that is 'me time'. even if its 30 minutes. the NB phase is crazy. it will get better around 1.5 to 2 months old. hang on there.
