How are you BOTH getting sleep with a newborn?! 😴

If you’re doing bottles, I would say for your partner to do the first wake up and then you do the second, that way you’re both only getting up once. I really struggle with the lack of sleep / broken sleep too. Even though my husband works full time and I’m breastfeeding, he does his fair share during the night otherwise I wouldn’t be able to function

My baby is 3 weeks old, I only slept about an hour throughout the night. I’m struggling

Husband works 9-6. He takes the shift till midnight, I go to bed early. Then midnight onwards is my shift. Helps me get a 3-4 hour stretch in one go at the beginning of the night.

I sleep from 8pm - 12midnight and then I take our newborn and cosleep till 6am and have another few hours sleep from 6am - 8am or 9am depending on my partners shifts.

I sleep from 8pm-until he needs a bottle between 10-12 depending on how long he sleeps from and my husband does the first feed, he’s breast fed so I express milk, he then comes to bed and I do all the night time wakes and I let my husband sleep in in the morning, he’s currently still off on paternity but Is night shift so this will how it’ll go when he goes back to work, xx

I sleep between feed. No sleep in the day as he wants to be held.
Husband gets plenty of sleep as work is now his excuse...

My fiancé works 9-5 and I go to bed for 10pm, he goes around midnight. He does the last feed (formula, bigger portion) around 11pm and i take over afterwards - my little one usually wakes up at 3am for feeding (bf) so by then I had at least 4-5h sleep and then have a broken sleep until the morning depends how he feels like. I also sleep in a guest room so that my fiancé can get 7-8h uninterrupted sleep and have energy to take over in the evenings x
