Really need some getting used to being a mom of 2.
My daily routine is beginning to get more settled. Morning feeds, pump milk, bathe, breakfast. Come back feed again, baby sleeps, I put the laundry to wash, wake baby up and goes to Mom's and prepare Ethyl for school.
After Ethyl goes to school, I'll come back, let Brayden sleep, I'll pump milk, hang out the clothes, clean the house, take a breather (surf the net) and feed again, pump milk again, feed and make baby sleep will I stole some time for a rest.
Evening routine is also about pumping and feeding...cleaning baby, fetching Ethyl, have dinner etc...quite hectic in the mornings actually. However, I have begun to enjoy the busy times...am planning to squeeze in baking, but need to have some planning. Probably when nephew's back at home then I will bake.
How settled am I? Still learning to be a super mommy for 2.

I totally agreed with you...being a mother of two really needs lots of adjustment and getting used...i'm still learning and adjusting...let's jia you together! :)
Hi Fannie,
You're doing very well, i took a much longer time to be able to handle 2... =)
BTW, do u intend to train Brayden to latch on? It's very tiring to pump & feed all the time.
Eileen, yes, it is tough...but i will hang on there :) Jia you !!!
Nana, i am training him to latch on properly and it was only for night feeds, but he is not able to empty my breasts, thus i still have to wake up and pump :) but i am glad to see some improvements! YAY!!
Fannie, you are already doing a lot and doing very well. So don't try to be a supermum, because no woman has to be a supermum, and honestly, supermum is not cool at all. Just do what you can, whatever you can't, there's always tomorrow, the next day, the day after...enjoy each day as it comes!
