Not enough rest as a new mother

I know it can be a bit silly to ask but i just would like some reassurance.. Is it normal to not have proper sleep and rest with a newborn? 😢 No helper around to help with housework. Exclusive pumping and washing of milk bottles and feeding baby are enough to tire me out...

It’s normal. Childbirth is very taxing on the body and so is taking care of a newborn. When you are the sole caregiver, the stress and tiredness are multiplied. Try to eat well and rest whenever possible. Try to seek help from family if possible, order tingkat catering (so you don’t have to think about food) and get part time helper to do housework. Hang in there! Things will get better!
