[quote=Anonymous]We are in the same boat a few weeks ahead. No help at all. It does get better! Here are a few things that helped me: 1) taking cara babies newborn course; and/or a free option is the fb group ‘respectful sleep training/learning. There are sleep foundations that you can begin now to help baby learn to sleep better. Particularly look for baby’s core night sleep, coming up in week 4 or 5 (google core night method) 2) it got so bad, I slept in another room alone for the whole weekend (on a blowup mattress since we don’t have a guest room) and only woke to quickly pump. DH was on night duty for weekend bottle feeding my breast milk. 3) we considered hiring a postpartum doula / night nurse but in the end didn’t for co reasons. Look up any dc doula site and you can find post partum doula or night nurses as well Good luck. Well all get through this[/quote]
