DH sleeps, and I wake up.

He apparently can't hear baby cry Chat Icon Chat Icon

Its very strange - he can hear a car alarm go off 2 blocks away, but can't hear the baby cry in the next roomChat Icon

I have always done all the night feedings via nursing. DH does all the feedings after he gets home from work until DS goes to bed.

I would wake up even when DH would feed her a bottle of pumped milk... so... I get up to feed her and if she wakes up for another reason, DH goes in.




same here. I found the best way for me to really sleep if dh did the night feeding was to sleep in another room. Have you tried a sound machine in your room? even just the air conditioner helps drown out the monitor noise for the most part if you keep it low. don't worry he will start sleeping longer soon, Talia is 6 weeks and just starting to sleep a little more finally. good luck.

Most of the time it was all me. My DH worked very long hours (14-16per day) so there was little time for him to do a feeding during the week. Whenever he was off or on the weekend he would always do the late feeding (like 11-12 at night, b/c thats usually when he goes to bed anyway).
When he was home and doing that feeding I would try to be asleep by 9:30-10 so I could get some solid sleep before DS woke up again.

When DD first came home, DH and I shared the feeding in the middle of the night, but once DH went back to work it was all me. DH works midnights so I'm home by myself.
