During pregnancy, I was excited about the prospect of having my baby. I shopped with reckless abandon and spent my days day dreaming about my baby. Fast forward to post delivery and I feel swamped.
I haven't had up to four hours sleep at a stretch since I gave birth. There is either the baby to attend to or house chores to do. My saving grace is my husband who has taken it upon himself to make this job easier.

Let's share our experiences so that other first time mothers and would be mothers can learn.
