First day flying solo

So, today my husband went back to work after 4 weeks off on paternity leave and for the first time I've been left alone and in charge (which is worrying) of not one but two boys!  My eldest boy will be 3 next month and the baby is now 1 month old.

This is something I've been worrying about since I got pregnant and the worrying only got more intense once my second little bundle of joy came and I realised just how much attention he demanded (damn you Colic!!)  The baby cries if you leave him in his moses basket, if you leave him in his bouncer seat, if you put him in the swing, if you lie him on his playmat, if you carry him in a baby carrier...if I didn't know better I'd assume my baby was seriously depressed.  So I wondered how I would do everyday things like the following if I constantly had to be holding baby:
- Get my boy breakfast and feed it to him (because the lazy little sod refuses to lift the spoon himself)
- Get my own breakfast
- Get a shower
- Get the boy ready for nursery/daycare (which he attends 2 days a week)
- Make the boy lunch
- Eat my lunch
- Make the family dinner

The list goes on but you get the idea.
So far today baby has made a total fool out of me because he has been considerably better today than he has previously...albeit he's been sleeping most of the day (I'm gonna pay for this tonight no doubt!)

It's 08:08 on my first morning alone with the boys! We have successfully had breakfast without difficulty, however I cannot see myself getting out of my pjs today 
😁 hurry up and come home husband

Update: it's 10:23 and we have managed to get a quick wash and brush our teeth (but still in pjs) followed by the boy administering me with 'medicine' which consists of water filled calpol syringe, each time he chases me with another dose insisting this is the last one... It never is.

11:00 successfully prepared a cottage pie which is ready to be cooked for dinner.

11:30 - if the boy asks me one more time "where's daddy?" I am gonna go all Vernon Dursley on him and put him under the stairs.

Thankfully shortly after lunch a friend came to play with the boy and kept him occupied for an hour or two.

It's now 16:17 - Hubby is on the way home and I feel like wonderwoman for surviving!!


Is it normal to feel nervous at the thought of spending the day alone with your children?
It's mega annoying when you see all your mummy friends on facebook looking like wonderful mothers and totally relishing spending the day with their multiple children...not that I don't enjoy being with my two...but it doesn't seem like the supermums posting all over my newsfeed get the nerves I do at the thought of it!

I think we can see why I've named myself Highly Strung Mum!
