[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You hire help. But also, with your first baby it's much easier to find pockets of time to rest. Mine would do a 5/6am feeding, and then still go back to sleep, so I would too. Sometimes she'd sleep until 8/9am after that, so I often wasn't getting up for the day until then. It was still only in 90 minute to 3 hour chunks here or there, but we muddled through. If you really feel like you need solid sleep, you have your DH take over for a night time feed. There is no reason you should be tasked with only sleeping in 90 minute chunks while he gets 6-8 solid hours. He will do just fine with 3-4 hour chunks as well. Every single woman who goes back to work at 12 weeks goes back to work doing that. [/quote] Not true. My daughter was sleeping from 9-6 at 9 weeks.[/quote]
