Dear Babysitter, this is our first time away from the baby and though you are totally competent, I mean, overqualified, there are a few things I wanted you to know. One, please feel free to text us if there’s a problem. Like if she doesn’t take the bottle or seems gassy. Or if she cries. Or doesn’t cry. Maybe just text us regardless.

What if I’m not the only one who has poured water into her cereal and put trash in the hamper? I’ll pry my eyes open for another round of lullabies. Because maybe, just maybe, I’m not the only one awake.

Keeping it simple has been a lifesaver for me. Sometimes we overcomplicate things and are too hard on ourselves, especially as first time moms. I don't let myself "sweat the small stuff" or over-analyze each day.
