I've never really gotten along with the "normo's." The problem with muggles

Word.
Things will change, obviously, as your kid gets older but at every
age, spend time listening to your partner and your kid and yourself to
see what y'all need. 3 month olds are surprisingly expressive if you
take the time to focus in and listen to them.

Biggest thing I can add to all the excellent advice is to leave work stress
at work. It ain't easy but kids feel and amplify stress in ways I can't
begin to explain.

bounce her on your belly. Get a sling or carry pouch thingy and take

We've been and are in the same situation. Wendy has to work so Alexis
goes to daycare while we're at work. It means some serious scheduling
challenges - Wendy gets the kid up while I get ready for work, then I
take care of Alexis while Wendy gets ready. I usually take Alexis to
daycare, since its
