It's been 2 months since I become a mother and I'm still learning to become one. There are still days where I feel burn out, exhausted, even frustrated, and feel I don't know what to do. I feel most of my time still occupied only for feeding my babies and cleaning up diapers. Not to mention the being wake up all night to breastfeed and soothing him. So far I'm not yet able to have time for myself and my own mental health but we'll in the end I'm still learning.

@Shunnan I'm lucky because I stay with my mom. So I don't need to cook or do others chores - because I can't do chores so far. I delivered him with caesar procedure so I can't do much.

My husband can't help me because he can't visit me due to the covid 19. But I get help from my mom because I stay with her now.
