To be fair, if I had their lifestyle I would probably have stayed in bed, tit out, to try and establish feeding, especially as she struggled with Rex, so I don’t begrudge her that.
I will say though - and before anyone shoots me down, I know PND is complex, and it’s not a one size fits all situation, if she is still pulling this lying around in bed
tit in a few weeks, she’ll need to give her head a wobble.
Sometimes, it is possible to help yourself. Some fresh air, a shower, a change of scenery and clean clothes can really make the world of difference at times.
It would be easier for her seeing as Joe is home more than most partners too.
I made myself get up at 6 am (regardless of lack of sleep) and have a shower before my partner left for work at 6:30.
even if nothing else got done that day, knowing I was clean and presentable(ish) really can help the mind.

I’m not saying a shower fixes PND, obviously, I just think she could take small steps to look after herself correctly in the hopes that it helps.
