I 100% put DD2 to bed though.

Although, I take care of the very end. We sing a few songs and then I put him to bed. A few times a month, I'll work late so DH will have to do it all on his own.

He is fine doing it alone but it goes smoother with my help! LO is not fussed which of us gives his bottle and lays him in bed.

My husband gives the bath. When our new baby comes my husband may have to step it up with our son which scares me a little bit because he is such a Mommas boy. MamaChin on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948451 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 22:57:20 +0000 MamaChin 1948451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I do LO2 since she nurses while DH chills with LO1 and gets his bath ready. Then I bathe him, DH brings him in to his room to say good night and I do pjs and stories. I do the bulk of it because he works late a lot. winniebee on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948411 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 22:12:17 +0000 winniebee 1948411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Right now we do it together. We used to trade off but since moving a few months ago it just happened. Sometimes DH works late though so I have to do it alone. LO2 will be here in the next month and I don't know how things will go then. Mrs. Sunshine on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948389 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:49:00 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1948389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DH does bath. I do diaper, jammies, teeth, nurse (like 5 seconds), book & bed. LO seems to be about done with nursing before bed but I think DH should take over the entire thing for a week or so just to help her along. Mrs. Champagne on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948381 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:42:58 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1948381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Together but DH does most of it and I'm getting things prepped. Like I beig the towel after bath, I zip up the sleep sack, etc. we can both do it alone, DH is probably better than i am thoigh. We do pumped bottle before bed and he takes it better from DH so he does that part of the routine every noght h less he isn't home.

I do book, bottle, rock to sleep. blackbird on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948372 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:29:55 +0000 blackbird 1948372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We usually do it together but she goes down fine for either of us individually Mae on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948369 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:28:50 +0000 Mae 1948369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always have. First because I nursed to sleep, then because it was habit, then because when DH tried she refused to eat or sleep for him. We're now working really hard to change this. We started sleep training this week and he put her to bed last night and she went down just fine! She still won't eat for him before bed so he can't do the whole routine, but I'm thrilled that he can do the rest of the routine and hopeful that with time he'll be able to do the whole thing.

LO is easy it put down and I love when DH and I do it together. MrsStar on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948247 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:58:38 +0000 MrsStar 1948247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always do it. Dh works different shifts so I always put lo to bed for consistency. She's pretty easy to put to bed thankfully. artsyfartsy on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948245 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:58:17 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Usually me but we alternate. We do bath time and getting ready for bed together. I nurse him and DH and I take turns rocking him to sleep. Lately he's been preferring me though and going to sleep much quicker with me. yoursilverlining on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948240 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:54:43 +0000 yoursilverlining 1948240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I almost always put LO to bed and DH does the dishes and then always takes LO in the morning (including weekends so I can sleep in). Fair trade IMO!

Her bed time is 6:30. DH puts J to bed most of the time, especially since L came along. He has an evening class Mondays so I will do it today. His bed time is 7:30 so we have about 45 mins of quality mom, dad, Joel time. lawbee11 on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948233 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:49:25 +0000 lawbee11 1948233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We take turns. We're usually both involved in some way...one does bath and brushes teeth and the other does lotion, pjs and bedtime stories.

Sometimes we tag team if LO is having a rough night (aka hang out with LO) but DH almost always is the one that helps put LO finally to bed. lovehoneybee on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948224 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:33:40 +0000 lovehoneybee 1948224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ D usually doesn't get home until after bedtime, so during the week I do it. On the weekends and random nights D gets home early we do it together. twodoghouse on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948223 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:33:17 +0000 twodoghouse 1948223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We typically each take a baby and do it together. One of my twins (6.5 months) will go down for my husband, but his sister will only take her bedtime bottle from me and always nurses before bed. DS will get drowsy/fall asleep after a bottle only. DH has never been able to get them down for bed on his own and I can but rarely do. cyndistar3 on "Who puts LO to bed?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-puts-lo-to-bed#post-1948221 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 19:30:07 +0000 cyndistar3 1948221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We both put the older two down together at the same time. They get upset if either one of us doesn't come in and give them hugs and kisses.
