12 Things That Got Me Through The First Few Week After Giving Birth

It's nearly 3 months since I had my first baby and I'm slowly getting used to my new life as a mum and being on maternity leave. Life certainly is very different to how I knew it and although it's busy being a mum, it's a different type of busy to working full time. I'm an organiser by nature, it's what helps me deal with life, especially big life changing events. Knowing what I know now I'm so pleased I was organised, it really helped me get through what was an extremely difficult time. I didn't find it too difficult having a new baby in it's self, but dealing with the recovery of a very difficult labour and birth was helped by preparing before.
