Whether you are at home full-time or balancing home life with going back to work, you probably cannot imagine how much time your baby would take up in a day. Communicate to your partner how you feel in your new role with the baby. Share the experience and enjoyment of parenting. If possible, try to find a relative or friend to stay with your baby for a short time (to which this was impossible to me, well, until now, hopefully in the near future somebody could be a reliever of me) so that you and your partner can have time out together.

After the excitement of giving birth, you may experience some depression or baby blues. This postpartum sadness is normal and can be caused by a variety of factors, including changes in your hormone levels after birth. Other contributing factors include fatigue and the strain of meeting the many needs of your baby. Talking to your partner, friends and other mothers about your feelings will help.
