[quote=Anonymous]DD was a sleepy newborn and I was nursing. I did not want to miss feedings so I did all of them. She had no trouble sleeping alone in her crib so that was not an issue. If she was not such a good sleeper then DH would have done bottle feedings for sure. That being said looking back a very large part of me wishes we had combo fed from the start. I think it is better for a marriage for both to be a little sleep deprived than for one to be super sleep deprived. Those first four months of only getting sleep in 2-4 hour increments was terrible for me psychologically and it affected our marriage as well. DH had no understanding of what I was going through because he was sleeping in a separate room. I remember when I finally slept 8 hours in a row I felt truly happy to be a mom for the first time. Is your DH willing to do Friday and Saturday nights? [/quote]
