[quote=Anonymous]OP I'm not a fan of lazy husbands... but I do think you need to make this simpler for yourself. I would encourage you to stop pumping at night. Roll over, nurse baby in bed, place baby back and everyone goes back to sleep. Don't turn on lights, don't get up out of bed, don't change diapers (get better ones!!). I personally couldn't go without sleep, so that was my attack plan. 3 babies, I EBF and dh never got up once because it was too hard for me (woke both of us up, I leaked milk everywhere and pumping totally wakes you up). If you don't fully wake up, you will be able to go back to sleep very easily. You're currently choosing the hardest path (pumping, bottle feeding and nursing). Either choose to breastfeed or go with formula. Also, baby should start dropping wakeups soon. By 8 weeks, most are down to 1-2 and by 12 some start STTN. [/quote]
