[quote=Anonymous]Just echoing all the "sleep when the baby sleeps." Or at least sit/lay down, if you can't sleep. Make sure you're familiar with basics of good sleep/feeding practices. Really, your baby shouldn't be waking up every 2 hrs for much longer. And if your baby DOES continue to wake up every 2 hours, you're going to need to start swtiching off with your husband at night. You can do something like you sleep the first 6 hrs of the night and your husband sleeps the 2nd 6 hrs. I didn't have any help other than husband, and I exclusively breastfed. It was much harder when I had a newborn AND a toddler. I don't know, you just deal with it.[/quote]
