When you have a baby, things are pretty rough to start off. The first week you are so tired and sore that you really don't want to do anything. The more you do the worse you feel. It's best to set up a little area you will spend most your time. Keep all baby essentials in this area along with things you will need for yourself. This makes things a little easier. Breastfeeding takes time, you will get it right just keep trying.
Vincent just turned two weeks old today and things have gotten easier for us, by far. He sleeps better at night, stays awake longer during the day, and eats longer but less frequently. My body has gone back to what it was before minus light bleeding. I am not feeling exhausted anymore either. I wake up for the day at either 8 or 10 in the morning depending on how many times he wakes up at night and how long he stays awake at those times.
On a side note: My older sister had her ultrasound today and found out that she is having her first daughter this July. She is super excited as this is her third child and she's always wanted a girl. I am happy because I have three nephews already, so to be having a niece is going to be so different but exciting and fun.
