Help for new parenthood in Dominican Republic
From people who came through it
“To anyone just starting out: it's bloody hard. The crying, the weighing, the feeling like you've vanished. I won't say it's easy, but it does change. You'll find bits of yourself again, just slower than you'd like. Accept help when it's offered, even if it's just someone holding the baby while you shower. And if you're struggling, tell someone. I wish I had sooner.”
Pauline from Leicester · been through new parenthood“I was where you are this time last year. The worst part was a 6 week old who will not sleep. This week I went back to my evening class. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Praying for you.”
Tobias from Hanover · been through new parenthood“For whoever is where I was: I was right where you are about three years ago. No family nearby, every single day. I went on holiday in the summer and actually relaxed. It's slow, but it does come back. x”
Grace from Sunshine Coast · been through new parenthood“For whoever is where I was: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. Mine was no family nearby. Now I sleep most nights. It's slow, but it does come back. Sending love.”
