[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry but this is why you’re home on maternity leave.  If he’s going to handle a shift it should be day earlier than midnight or 5 AM.  He needs rest to go to work.  You need to nap when the baby sleeps during the day.  [/quote]

I disagree. You're home on maternity leave because your body is also recovering and you also need rest to function.

You deserve an equal partner in this journey. [/quote]
Can he nap during the day at the office? I doubt it.[/quote]

It is rare that you nap at home with the baby. People always use that as a weapon. But you just can’t. Maybe once every other week you get an hour this way, but it does not make up for the backlog of missed sleep or recovering from birth. also the person at home is generally the one that’s driving the baby around so… Might be a good idea if they slept as well. Thinking doctors appointments and groceries that kind of thing. The baby will be in the car, mom needs to be rested too. [/quote]
