Being a housekeeper and a nurse

I have been performing various house-related tasks since Jakob was born. This is mostly due to episiotomy, which was done to Mica during the birth. It is literally “pain in the ass” and she’s only able to travel from the bed to the bathroom. Therefore, these days I spend most time cooking, cleaning, washing (okay, putting clothes in washing machine), washing the dishes, changing Jakob’s nappies, shopping, preparing tea, etc. It is not hard to do that, when you feel you are really needed. Even if this means being peed by our boy from time to time.

However, this condition will last one more week or so, so then I’ll finally be able to start working on other things too.

By the way, having this a baby this young (a week or so old) can be sometimes also boring, since he’s only able to cry, sleep and eat (drink actually). It’s not possible to play or communicate with him. So I am really looking forward to be able to do that. =)
