@cookie1720 Not a SAHM, but was lucky enough to get to stay home for about 4mo.
Short answer: you’ll do it because you have no other choice. You are stronger than you think. You’ll be surprised what you can do when you realize your babies need you.
Long answer: I found my twins to be the easiest in their first few weeks of life. If they weren’t eating, they were sleeping. Yes it was exhausting and hard but everything was so focused, there wasn’t much guess work. Wake, diaper, feed, sleep, repeat.
It got more challenging for me when their wake window increased. All of a sudden I had to entertain both of them and both wanted to be held all the time. The crying was really hard on me and started to affect my mental health.
My best advice is to get really comfortable with tears, theirs and yours, and look for a babysitter that you can have come over for a few hours a day just to be an extra set of hands. Figure out when the babies witching hours are - my twins get very fussy from 3-6pm - and have the babysitter come then. It can get expensive but it’s so worth it to know that you will have dedicated help.
