When does it get easier? Real answers only
We're at 5 weeks with our first and everyone keeps saying 'it gets easier!' but nobody specifies WHEN. Like are we talking month 2? Month 6? Year 1? Should I expect to feel human again at some point or is this just the new normal? And tbh when people say it gets easier are they talking about the exhaustion or just that you get used to being exhausted? Need honest timelines here.
5 weeks is still the fog. you're not gonna feel human until at least month 3. but somewhere around week 8 or 9 you'll have a day where you're not counting down minutes til bedtime and that feels huge
