Do you self a favor and take naps when the baby does, talk with other moms. Just don't isolate yourself with a newborn. Also, just remember, when they are that little, it's all work and not so much fun. But it quickly changes.

Our son just turned two and it was worth every sleepless night, the anxiety, the doubts and fears. Please hang in there. Keep posting messages to us. People are here to help. Good luck.
