Have you left your baby yet? If so, how long did you wait and what did you do with your first solo time?

Anyone else really struggling at the minute? The days seem to go by so slowly and I feel like I’m not doing enough and it’s just like living the same day over again. I don’t have a lot of help from my partner and i just feel like I’ve completely lost myself.
