I Feel so Overwhelmed and Exhausted Since my Baby Arrived. Will i Ever get my Life Back?

Dear new parent, please know that what you’re feeling is completely normal and valid. The arrival of a newborn is one of life’s most beautiful yet challenging transitions. While it may feel like your old life is gone, remember that this is just a new chapter – one that will bring incredible joy and growth. The exhaustion and overwhelm are temporary. As your baby grows and you adapt to your new role, you’ll gradually find a new rhythm. Be kind to yourself, celebrate small victories, and don’t hesitate to ask for help. Remember, you’re not just ‘getting your life back’ – you’re building a richer, more meaningful life that includes this precious little person. You’re doing an amazing job, even on the days when it doesn’t feel that way. This phase will pass, and you’ll emerge stronger, more patient, and with a heart full of love you never knew was possible.
