[quote=Anonymous]Sleep deprivation and driving is a recipe for car accidents so since my DH has to drive to work and I don't while on leave, he gets a 6 hour sleep stretch. I wouldn't let him drive after drinking and I wouldn't let him drive after a night of no sleep. He also can't nap during the day and needs to be alert to keep his job. People look like a wreck when sleep deprived and him looking like a wreck at work is a lot more problematic than me looking like a wreck at home. I usually got about 6 hours too - I would go to bed about 9:00 after feeding. he would do the midnight feed, and I would be up again for the 3:00am. Usually both of us were up by the time 6:00 rolled around. We sleep trained before I went back to work to be sure that once both of us needed to not look like wrecks and to be alert and to be safe on the roads, we could both sleep. [/quote]
