Will your husband help / take turns? I know he goes to work but just because you are home during the day, doesn’t mean you are not working as well. My husband admits that being home with the baby is much harder emotionally than going to his 9-5. We start our bedtime routine with turning down the lights in the house, a nice warm bath every night, and then a bottle with the white noise in the background. Our son has started sleeping very well with this routine. Of course every baby is different. My husband and I take turns on who is on first and second shift so we switch when the baby wakes up whether that is 2am or 5am, it’s just the luck of the draw but the only way it seems “fair” and we don’t resent the other for getting more or less sleep.
Hi mamas! You are NOT alone! It sounds like she is entering a leap. Which is a growth spurt physically and mentally. Which is no doubt exhausting. With that being said I would see if you can exchange nights with your spouse. That way you can catch some much needed zzzs It does get better Just hold tight!
You're not alone. In the past week or week and a half I've had 2 good nights of sleep but most we had exactly what you described and she didn't go to bed until almost midnight
