For me personally its ROUTINE ROUTINE ROUTINE.
I would be a raving crying lunatic if we hadn't implemented a routine at a month old, when we found out his natural routine.
Bed time routine we found is key to everything, even if it alters on bath days or when there are extenuating circumstances that change it.
However we did do a lot of trial and error with his routine to see what fit us and him. There is always going to be something that could be improved, remember that we are all only human. These perfect mothers that you find online be it in Facebook groups, Twitter, or Baby forums online, you will always find yourself comparing everything you do to what you see as a perfect mother and beat yourself up mentally about it.
NEVER think you are a rubbish mother as that baby loves you with all their being.
I have had a few days where I have felt so low I wanted to walk away, but just looking into my little guys eyes and seeing the love that is there with no judgement changes my mind immediately.
