[quote=Anonymous]We had twins and my husband took off the first four weeks and then went back to work. I moved into the guest room near their room and took over the night feedings because I was still on maternity leave and he had a job (and was working out of the house). He helped with everything while he was home, and he did all the changing, etc. during the night of those first four weeks because I was recovering from a c-section so I basically just sat in bed and he'd bring me the babies. However, he didn't have a rigid 10-6 sleep schedule with an hour-long morning workout scheduled every day, and he did help before going to sleep and after waking up - it was just the middle of the night that I let him sleep uninterrupted.

I think OP's husband is an a$$ for insisting on his specific sleep schedule and workout times and being inflexible in figuring out a way to make a feeding or two work in there, but I also think OP is overly rigid and causing herself a lot of unnecessary problems. The two of them sound made for each other. Oh, and don't have another kid. You will not be able to handle it. [/quote]
