On phone so can't quote properly but wanted to respond regarding time to yourself. As much as I didn't want to be apart from her it was hard work at times, not getting a break (no family to help and a very short napper). But the newborn period doesn't last long so you will get through it. If you have help then take iyt. Even with a newborn you can usually slope off for an hour to read the paper and have a coffee. Not quite tyhe same as a wild night out but to honest you probably won't have the energy for one!

Bf can be hard work early on but it does get easier and you won't feel as tied to the baby.
