[quote=Anonymous]Our schedule in those first couple of months was: - I'd feed at 6pm and put baby to bed - I'd pump at 7-8pm and then go to bed myself - When baby woke up at 9-10 pm, DH would change him and then bring him to me in bed. I'd feed still half-asleep. - Baby woke up again around 12-1 am, DH on duty (diaper, bottle). I completely slept through that one. - When baby next woke at 3-4 am, my boobs were bursting and I couldn't sleep anyway. My turn on duty, DH slept through it. - I took the 6am feeding, but handed off to DH within the next couple of hours. So I'd sleep from 8:30 to 3 (ish) - 6+ hours - and another hour or two in the morning. DH would sleep 1am to 7 or 8, plus another couple of hours before and/or after. Not great for either of us, but survivable for both of us. [/quote]
